Labiaplasty is one of the most mischaracterized procedures in women's health. It is almost always described as cosmetic surgery, and because of that label, it is priced accordingly and frequently dismissed by insurance. But for many women, this procedure has nothing to do with appearance. Labial hypertrophy, the enlargement of the inner labia, develops in many women after childbirth and in others for genetic reasons. When the labia are enlarged, sitting on hard surfaces, exercising, wearing tight clothing, and riding a bike can all become genuinely painful. For some women, the psychological weight of the condition adds another layer of difficulty.
At Advanced Women's Health Institute, we treat labiaplasty as what it actually is: a quality-of-life procedure. Dr. Moore is an experienced gynecologist who has performed labial reduction surgery many times. Because our focus is on comfort and function rather than cosmetics, we are able to offer this procedure at a price that reflects that. While a cosmetic practice may charge $3,000 to $6,000 for the same surgery, we keep the cost under $1,500.
If you are experiencing labial discomfort and want to talk through whether this procedure is right for you, schedule a consultation with us today.
We submit an insurance claim on your behalf for every patient. Whether or not coverage is approved, you won't pay the inflated rates of a cosmetic practice — our cost stays under $1,500, compared to $3,000 to $6,000 elsewhere.
Chronic discomfort sitting on hard surfaces, pain during exercise or cycling, irritation from tight clothing, and labial hypertrophy from childbirth or genetics.
Labiaplasty is performed in-office by Dr. Moore, an experienced gynecologist who has completed labial reduction surgery many times.
We'll review your symptoms and make sure you have a clear understanding of the procedure and recovery before you decide to move forward.
Labial hypertrophy, or enlargement of the inner labia (labia minora), develops in many women after childbirth. In others, it appears to have a genetic basis and is present from an earlier age. Physicians generally consider elongated labia a normal anatomic variant, but normal does not mean comfortable. For women experiencing chronic physical discomfort or psychological distress as a result, labial reduction surgery is a legitimate and well-established option.
Labiaplasty does have a billable procedure code, and we submit an insurance claim for every patient. However, insurance companies frequently decline coverage by classifying it as cosmetic. If your insurance does not cover the procedure, we keep the out-of-pocket cost under $1,500. For comparison, cosmetic surgery practices typically charge $3,000 to $6,000 for the same procedure. Our pricing reflects our focus on comfort and quality of life, not aesthetics.
Recovery from labiaplasty is generally manageable for most patients. Swelling and discomfort are expected in the first week or two, and most women are advised to avoid strenuous activity, tight clothing, and sexual activity for several weeks while healing. Dr. Moore will walk you through exactly what to expect, including any activity restrictions and follow-up care, before your procedure. We want you to feel fully informed and confident going into surgery.
You can request a consultation online or call our office directly at 303-321-2255. At your appointment, Dr. Moore will review your symptoms, answer your questions honestly, and help you determine whether labial reduction surgery is the right option for you. We do not push procedures, and we do not make false promises. We will give you the information you need to make the decision that is right for you.
