Labiaplasty Worth It Ratings:

Is a labiaplasty worth it? According to RealSelf.com, the consensus says yes; a labiaplasty is worth it.  In the last 24 months, 429 reviews on the site are overwhelmingly positive, giving the labiaplasty a 95% Worth It Rating. Women are reporting the technique provides significant improvements in both comfort level and aesthetic appearance. Self-esteem and confidence levels are known to dramatically rise after the labiaplasty, as women are happier with their physical appearance and no longer dread the pinching or rubbing during exercise and sexual activity. Take a look at some of the labiaplasty testimonials on RealSelf.com:

“I have always had a larger sized labia, but with childbirth and aging, it became more and more prominent, impeding my athletics, sexual relations, and overall comfort with constant pulling of the excess skin. My results speak for themselves. Rather than completely excising my labia, (my surgeon) created a work of art that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, maintaining the natural edges and minimizing scarring.” Fort Lauderdale, Florida

“My labia minora was extra long and large. I always thought about this procedure, but I was always too embarrassed to address it and to talk about it. Now I truly wish I have done it YEARS ago”! Rockville, Maryland

“The Best Gift to Myself Since Becoming a Mom.  I’ve always been very self-conscious and uncomfortable about the size of my labia, but after having children, everything looked and felt much worse! (The labiaplasty) was the best decision, ever!!” Atlanta, Georgia
