Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Glenn Lyle wants to help women feel more comfortable and attractive with vaginal rejuvenation surgery to improve the size and shape of the labia. The labia minora (the internal " lips" of the vaginal area) may be oversized or have loose skin created by genetics, pregnancy, childbirth, or a physical trauma. A labiaplasty is a surgery that reduces the size of the labia minora and/or majora for a more normal appearance. This could eliminate discomfort and irritation while boosting confidence and sexual pleasure. Schedule a consultation at Lyle Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Center in Raleigh, NC to learn more about the benefits of labiaplasty and find out if you are a candidate for the surgery.
Ideal Candidates
A labiaplasty at Lyle Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Center may be helpful for women who are worried about the appearance of their vaginal area, which may be stretched due to genetics, childbirth, or trauma. Abnormal vaginal lips may cause pain, discomfort, itching, or irritation during physical activities like exercise and sex. A labiaplasty may also help if you can't wear revealing outfits (including leggings, bathing suits, or yoga pants) due to the size of your vaginal lips. While cosmetic surgery on the labia should not affect your ability to get pregnant or have a natural childbirth, Dr. Lyle suggests that you consider waiting until you are done having children to avoid undoing your results although younger patients with these concerns often proceed despite their desire for future pregnancies.
Surgical Technique
Most procedures for the labia are performed in our on-site procedure room under local anesthesia so you can drive yourself to and from your appointment. If the procedure is more extensive, you may require general anesthesia at an accredited facility, which will mean you need a responsible friend to pick you up after your surgery. Dr. Lyle will discuss these options and time estimates during your consultation so you can make any needed arrangements before your procedure. A labiaplasty is generally performed with a trimming technique to cut away loose tissue, and then the remaining skin is stitched back together. Another technique is the wedge procedure that cuts away a pie-shaped piece of tissue and extra folds from the clitoral hood before the tissue is sutured closed.
What to Expect
Usually patients require about a week to recover from swelling and discomfort before returning to work and normal activities. Dr. Lyle recommends you apply ice packs or cold compresses to the vaginal area as needed to decrease swelling. You cannot use tampons or engage in sexual activity for 4 – 6 weeks after your treatment. Patients typically have visible improvements in about six weeks with final results closer to six months after surgery. The results of labiaplasty usually last a long time, but natural aging, significant weight fluctuations, and childbirth may alter results.
Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics Center Reviews
Dr. Lyle and his staff members are amazing! While visiting his office, I met with an esthetician, financial advisor, nurses, PA's and Dr. Lyle himself. Every experience at this office has been fantastic, everyone is so nice and kind. I had a tummy tuck performed and my stomach looks better than it did in high school! I am so pleased with the outcome...and so is my husband đ! I would highly recommend Dr. Lyle and will be returning for anything I might need in the future.
Canât say enough great things about Lyle Plastic Surgery! From the appearance of the office, professionalism and knowledge of their team to the results! Stephanie is an amazing injector! Highly recommend.
Great Experience. Happy with Results! - Very pleased with the service I received here! Dr. Lyle made me feel very comfortable during every visit from the consultation to the post-op visits. He was straight forward with what to expect as well, which I really appreciate. The nurses and office staff was amazing as well! I had a facial done and it was so relaxing! I had a mommy makeover done that included a tummy tuck and breast lift. One year later and I'm very pleased with my results! People ask me who did my work and I proudly recommend him. He was a good fit for me. I'm considering one more procedure! If I decide to proceed I will definitely consult with him!As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelfâs monthly $500 gift card giveaway.
From the moment we met Dr. Lyle, we knew we had chosen the perfect doctor to perform my daughterâs breast reduction. The entire office and surgical staff was kind and welcoming and calmed her nerves. My daughter absolutely loved Brittany (Dr. Lyleâs nurse) and Haley (Dr. Lyleâs physician assistant). We had a phenomenal experience her day of surgery. As a nurse mom, my standards are high. I felt incredibly comfortable knowing she was in the capable hands of an experienced nurse anesthetist doing her anesthesia (thank you Claire) Dr. Lyleâs has been practicing for nearly 30 years. His experience and expertise put me at ease. He is a true artist. My daughterâs surgery went smoothly and she was absolutely thrilled with her results. Dr. Lyle and his team gave her the gift of self confidence and I cannot thank them enough!
I have, literally, always been self-conscious about the shape of my breasts. Over the years, this got so bad that I started avoiding mirrors when changing, and I truly believed there was nothing that could be done. But, this past August I worked up the courage to speak with a plastic surgeon. After reading his other reviews and looking at his gallery online, I decided to speak with Dr. Lyle in person. It was the best decision I ever made for my self-esteem. Every single person I've had the pleasure of meeting at his office has been an absolute joy. From the cheerful reception staff, to the nurses, to the scheduling team, I was completely at ease and knew I was in good hands. My surgery turned out even better than I'd hoped, and I cannot adequately describe how much this changed my life. If you are thinking about having a breast lift, please give the team a call. And thank you to everyone at the office who gave me back a part of myself I thought I'd lost.
