The Pros And Cons Of Labia Surgery
Labia surgery can include different procedures. This can be labia reduction of either the inner labia, called labia minora reduction, or of the outer labia, called labia majora reduction, or both. This surgery may be desired for many reasons. Sometimes large or unusually shaped or deformed labia are present in newborn baby girls, and surgery may be required to correct these problems. As you age, and when you have children, the labia can become larger, darker or discolored, saggy, and very visible. This can lead to embarrassment or extreme modesty because of the visible anatomy. If your labia are large enough, they may be seen through tight pants or bathing suits, causing you to avoid these garments. You may also be extremely hesitant to undress or have intimate relations with your partner because of a negative body image. This may even affect your relationship with your partner if it continues long enough.
Labia surgery can offer several physical benefits to women who have this surgical procedure done. Large or unusually shaped labia, both inner and outer sets, can cause discomfort when sitting, riding a bike, exercising, or having sex. Sometimes women have noticed the labia being pulled into the body during intercourse, causing pain and sometimes tearing of the labia, along with other tissue damage. Some women may have an unusually thick labia, and this can also cause discomfort and physical symptoms. Another benefit can be increased sensation and stimulation during intimate relations. When the labia are large or unusually shaped, they may cover the clitoris and prevent any contact or friction from occurring, keeping your from enjoying the act as much as you should physically.
Labia reduction can also have psychological effects. If you are embarrassed by the way your labia appear, it may cause you to lose confidence in yourself, and the way you look. You may be reluctant to wear certain types of clothing, and you may be unwilling to have sex or allow your partner to view you nude, because you worry about how you will appear to them. This can lead to stress and doubts, which will prevent you from relaxing and being with the person you care about. Labia surgery can eliminate these doubts and worries about your appearance, and let you be confident in how you look again.
Labia surgery does have one drawback, and that is the simple fact that it is cosmetic surgery, and very rarely complications and problems can result. The odds are around one in twenty thousand procedures, so they are very small, but they are a factor. In the rare cases where complications do develop, ninety percent of them can be addressed and taken care of immediately, and do not require hospitalization or further medical treatment. These normally involve problems with bleeding during or immediately after the procedure, or with minor infections that are easily treated with antibiotics. Many surgeons will prescribe antibiotics after this procedure, to ensure no infection develops. This method will further minimize your risks of complications. Another way to lower these risks is to make sure you use a respected and experienced surgeon, so you get the results you want.
