What Is a Labia Majora?
The Labia Majora or the outer lips of the vulva, is the visible part of the female genitalia. Like all other parts of the human body, the normal ageing process has a role to play in the appearance of the vulva.
The other contributing factor is how much care is given to maintaining the care of the vulva.
Research has shown that estrogen plays a key role in the health and wellbeing of the vulva, with menopause and the associated decline of estrogen production being a key factor for many women.
Ageing, childbirth, and hormonal changes have an enormous impact on private areas of the body by decreasing the volume of the Labia Majora. It develops the wrinkles in the genital area, giving a deflated appearance.
The Labia Majora augmentation is a procedure that restores a healthy, full, and youthful appearance of the vulva. The outer lips of the vulva are augmented either by using autologous fat transfer or hyaluronic based dermal fillers.
Are you a candidate for a Labia Majora Augmentation?
If you want to restore a significant volume loss and the correct asymmetric Labia Majora, while still maintaining a good mental condition overall, then it’s the right time for you to undergo this procedure.
How does the Labia Majora injections procedure work?
-
Labia Majora Augmentation via fat transfer
You will be kept under local anesthesia, while your fat is harvested through a liposuction procedure, which is then purified. The cleaned fat is then injected into the target area and at a specific depth within the labia.
-
Labia Majora Augmentation via fillers
Fillers give instant volume to the Labia Majora. Topical anesthesia is used, after which, hyaluronic acid fillers are then injected into the various locations on the labia. The results are temporary, but immediately visible.
-
Sessions for Labia Majora Augmentation
The number of sessions depends upon the technique used. If the surgeon selects dermal fillers, then you should stop the session after 12 months. On the other hand, fat transfer is long lasting, and is performed occasionally with a permanent top-up.
What happens after Labia Majora Augmentation:
The patient will feel discomfort, redness, and swelling in a particular area. These effects will take 24 hours to subside. Labia Majora Augmentation using fillers is a minimally invasive procedure that allows you to continue all the regular activities immediately after the process. However, if it is done via fat transfer, the downtime is usually about 48 hours. The results are visible immediately, but the results might get obscure by swelling and discomfort and could take approximately 7 to 10 days. The results could also be affected by drastic weight fluctuation.
What is the Cost of Labia Majora Augmentation?
The actual cost of labia majora augmentation depends upon the technique and amount of filler needed. After a consultation with our board-certified aesthetic gynecologist Dr. Alia, you will be informed regarding all these issues.
