Labia Majora Surgery in Seoul, Korea

The labia majora are the outer, fatty folds that protect the inner labia and clitoris and cushion the pelvic bone during sex. After childbirth or with age they can lose volume. Labia majora surgery usually transfers your own fat from the abdomen or thigh to restore fullness. Excision is sometimes used for persistent itching.

About the labia majora

The outer labia are fatty tissue that protect the inner labia and clitoris and act as a cushion during intercourse.

Why consider surgery

  • Loss of volume and elasticity after childbirth or with aging
  • Naturally thin labia causing discomfort from pelvic bone impact during sex
  • Persistent, unexplained itching of the outer labia

Methods

Fat grafting: fat is taken from your abdomen or thigh and injected into the labia majora to restore a fuller, smoother contour. Some grafted fat is naturally reabsorbed, so results settle over months.

Excision: for intractable itching, part of the tissue is surgically removed and stitched.

Results and risks

Patients typically aim for a fuller, smoother appearance and more comfort during intimacy. Risks include swelling, bruising, irregular fat absorption and infection; your doctor explains these during an English consultation. See aftercare after procedures.
