Revision Labiaplasty Frequently Asked Questions
When is a revision labiaplasty medically necessary?
A revision labiaplasty may be medically necessary if the labia minora are causing physical discomfort or pain due to being too long, too thick, or asymmetrical. The purpose of a reconstructive labiaplasty is to make adjustments to the labia minora to improve the appearance and reduce any discomfort.
During a revision labiaplasty, labiaplasty specialist, Dr. Kafali can reconstruct the vulva so that the anatomy does not cause pain or discomfort. A revision labiaplasty can also be necessary if the patient is unhappy with the results of a previous labiaplasty procedure. In these cases, Dr. Kafali will need to do an evaluation to discuss their concerns. Not everyone is a candidate for a revision labiaplasty.
How do you know you need a revision labiaplasty?
The size and shape of the labia folds differ for every woman, and women seek labiaplasty for many different reasons, including functional and aesthetic concerns. For some women, the skin that makes up their labia minora may be elongated and hang lower than the labia majora. This excess tissue, known as labia minor hypertrophy or “labial show”, may cause hygiene issues, pain during activity and intercourse, or make wearing certain types of clothing such as yoga pants or a bathing uncomfortable or embarrassing.
Benefits of labia surgery may include:
- Enhanced appearance
- Relief from discomfort and/or pain during sexual intercourse, wearing tight-fitting clothing, or participating in physical activities
- Improved sexual function and stimulation
- Improved hygiene
- A boost in confidence

How is revision labiaplasty performed?
Labiaplasty can be performed under local or general anesthesia depending on the complexity of your case.
In some cases, the labiaplasty correction surgery may require further resecting of the labia minora. Additionally, Dr. Kafali may remove any scar tissue from the original procedure if it is causing discomfort, is aesthetically displeasing, or is causing pain.

Can a revision labiaplasty restore sexual function?
"Dr. Kafali was absolutely amazing! She made sure I always understood what was going on and made me feel comfortable every visit. She did amazing work on me and gave me the confidence I really needed! Would definitely recommend!!!"
How long do I need to wait to have revision labiaplasty surgery?
What is the recovery time for a labiaplasty revision procedure?
Recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the revision procedure. In general, we recommend at least a week of downtime or time off work following a labiaplasty procedure. Your total recovery period will last between 6-8 weeks. To ease pain and swelling, the team may recommend that you use an ice pack over the surgical site during the recovery period.
Your doctor may suggest continued activity modifications as your tissue heals, including refraining from the use of tampons and engaging in vaginal intercourse for four to six weeks. While most of the swelling should be gone by week six, it’s not unusual to continue to experience genital swelling for as long as six months following the procedure.
Those that have elected to have revision labiaplasty find significant relief from their discomfort and are very satisfied with the results.
Does insurance cover a revision labiaplasty procedure?
Some insurance plans may cover the cost of your revision labiaplasty procedure, but this typically depends on your individual insurance plan. If you are considering revision labiaplasty, we recommend you contact your insurance provider to find out if the procedure is covered under your plan.
The cost of your procedure is due in full prior to your revision labiaplasty surgery. Our office does not accept insurance payments directly. The patient is responsible for submitting any claims that may be eligible for insurance coverage.
Please speak to your patient care coordinator if you have any questions.
Is a revision labiaplasty free?
No, a revision labiaplasty is not free of charge. If your procedure was performed at another practice, the cost of the procedure will depend on the complexity of the surgery, OR/Anesthesia, and the surgeon's fees. If your labiaplasty procedure was performed at our practice, reach out to your patient coordinator or surgeon to review our revision policy.
