Sculpting
of the Labia Majora

In childhood and adolescence, the labia majora are tight and of an almost firm consistency. However, as we age, the fatty tissue in the labia majora decreases, giving them less volume. The skin stretches and loses its elasticity, hanging down loosely. The aging process in the genital area is most clearly visible when it comes to the changes to the labia majora. The good news? This problem is easy to correct.

How it works

Je nachdem, ob die Haut der äußeren Schamlippen erschlafft ist und ein Hautüberschuss besteht oder ob das Volumen (Fett) der äußeren Schamlippen mit den Jahren abgenommen hat, bestehen 3 Möglichkeiten der Korrektur:

1. Tightening the labia majora by removing excess saggy skin

2. Filling the labia majora with autologous fatty tissue (lipostructure)

3. A combination of both approaches

1. Tightening/reduction

This involves the removal of excess skin by making a spindle-shaped incision along the line of reflection through to the labia minora. The labia majora are tightened/reduced by closing the wound edges. This procedure can easily be performed under local anesthesia.

2. Filling with autologous fat

Autologous fat gives the labia majora volume and consistency. The fat is usually removed from the outer thigh under local anesthesia, specially prepared, and then injected into the labia majora all in one procedure.

This procedure is perfect if you are looking to shape and fill the volume of the labia majora. We generally add more volume than is actually necessary as our experience has shown us that some of the transplanted fatty tissue will deplete again. However, the part of the autologous fat that is connected to the vascular and blood supply (approx. 50-60%) is permanently preserved.
