Cosmetic genital surgery: labiaplasty and phalloplasty


Labiaplasty and vaginal rejuvenation are surgical procedures sometimes considered when labial anatomy causes physical discomfort, irritation, or hygiene concerns. Labia can naturally vary in shape, size and symmetry. In some cases, surgery may be an option based on individual needs.

Phalloplasty, or penis enlargement surgery, may be considered by men seeking to address functional concerns or anatomical variation. These procedures are assessed on a case-by-case basis, with a focus on realistic outcomes and medical appropriateness.

What is labiaplasty?


Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure performed to reduce discomfort or functional concerns related to the labia. The surgery often involves reducing the size of the labia minora, the folds of tissue next to the vaginal opening.

Reasons for a labiaplasty procedure

Women may consider labiaplasty for a range of reasons, including irritation, discomfort during intercourse, or recurrent infections. Others may have noticeable asymmetry or changes after childbirth or weight loss that cause physical concerns.

"Asymmetry in the labia is common and varies widely between individuals. Labiaplasty may be considered in cases where physical symptoms or irritation occur and non-surgical options are not effective."
Dr Jeremy Rawlins
A small study conducted by the University of South Australia has explored various outcomes related to function and symptom relief. During your consultation, we’ll discuss what this procedure may involve and whether it is appropriate for your circumstances.

Are you considering labiaplasty for physical symptoms or personal concerns?

Labia vary widely in shape and size. Published studies, such as a study conducted by the University of London, have documented these natural variations. This information may help guide discussion if you're considering surgery for physical symptoms or functional concerns.
"During our consultation, we can review available data on anatomical variation and talk through whether labiaplasty may be suitable in your case."
Dr Jeremy Rawlins

How is labiaplasty performed?

Labiaplasty surgery may be performed under general or local anaesthetic with sedation. The procedure typically takes about an hour and will be discussed in detail during your consultation, including risks and recovery expectations

"There are two common techniques used in labiaplasty. The ‘Trim Procedure’ removes a small section of tissue along the edge of the labia minora. The ‘Wedge Procedure’ removes a V-shaped segment from both sides. We’ll explain both options during your consultation and discuss which approach may suit your needs."
Dr Jeremy Rawlins

Recovery after labia reduction surgery

Following surgery, it’s common to experience swelling and mild discomfort, which usually improves over the first few weeks.

Dissolvable sutures are used and typically dissolve within three to four weeks. The incision is placed within natural tissue folds to support discreet healing

"Following labiaplasty you can usually go back to work after a few days. I recommend abstaining from sexual intercourse for a few weeks following your surgery."
Dr Jeremy Rawlins

Phalloplasty or penis enlargement


What is phalloplasty surgery?

Phalloplasty, or penis enlargement surgery, may be considered by men with concerns about anatomy or function. In many cases, these concerns are not related to medical conditions but may still cause distress. Any decision to proceed with surgery should follow a thorough consultation to assess suitability and discuss realistic outcomes

Types of penis enlargement

Penis enlargement procedures aim to alter the visible length or girth of the penis. In lengthening surgery, the suspensory ligament may be divided to release a portion of the penis from inside the body. In girth enlargement, dermal fat grafts or fillers may be used. Expected results vary and will be discussed during your consultation.

Increase penis girth

  • Surgical option: To increase girth, a graft of dermal fat may be taken from the abdomen or thigh and positioned under the skin of the shaft. This technique will be discussed in detail to determine if it’s appropriate for you.

  • Non-surgical option: Injectable fillers can be used to temporarily increase girth by adding volume to the soft tissue. These are placed beneath the skin and results vary depending on your anatomy and the amount used.

Other reasons for cosmetic genital surgery


Cosmetic genital surgery involves more than just labiaplasty and phalloplasty surgery. We have listed some of the common reasons for genital surgery:

Pigmentation disorders on genitalia: you may have vitiligo on your penis or vagina, a skin condition that causes spots or patches to lose melanin (resulting in white spots or patches).

Moles and cysts on your genitalia

Scar revision on the penis: you may have had previous surgery, or you may have injured your penis. Scar revision can be done to create a more natural appearance and restore function.

Episiotomy: women who have given birth may have had an episiotomy, a surgical cut during childbirth to enlarge the opening of the vagina to deliver the distressed baby quickly.
