You may be a good candidate if you:

Labiaplasty Techniques
Labiaplasty techniques are customized to each patient’s anatomy and goals. The trim technique removes excess tissue along the edge of the labia for a smoother, more refined contour, while the wedge technique removes a pie-shaped section of tissue to reduce size while preserving the natural edge and texture. Both approaches are designed to create balanced, natural-looking results that enhance comfort and confidence.
