I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Gupta and his team. As a healthcare worker, I strongly feel that, when looking for a good surgeon, you should always ask the surgical nurses who to go to. The nurses I work with all said that Dr. Gupta would be their first choice for a plastic surgeon.

Labiaplasty
What Is a Labiaplasty?
A surgical procedure which removes excess tissue from the labia minora.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
- You may be considered a good labiaplasty candidate if you:
- Have large and/or uneven vaginal lips from aging or genetics.
- Have stretched out vaginal lips from childbirth or weight loss.
- Are self-conscious about your vulvar appearance.
- Experience discomfort during intercourse, exercise or while wearing tight clothing.
- You should be at or close to your ideal weight, with a BMI less than 35.
- The best candidates are non-smokers. Smoking increases the chance of complications including impairment in wound healing.
The Procedures
- This is an outpatient surgery performed at a surgery center or hospital under general anesthesia.
- The surgery typically lasts about 2 hours.
- During the surgery excess skin and tissue will be removed from the inner or outer labia.
- The incisions will be closed with dissolvable sutures.
The Incisions
The incisions will be along the labia minora where the excess tissue is removed.
