Top Labiaplasty Myths Debunked

Debunking the Top Labiaplasty Myths

With more than 20 years of experience as a plastic surgeon in the San Francisco Bay Area, Dr. Usha Rajagopal could not believe her ears when told about these top labiaplasty myths.

Considering Labiaplasty?

Are you considering labiaplasty?

considering labiaplasty

Labiaplasty is a specialized cosmetic surgery for correcting irregular or overly large labias. This will alter the vaginal appearance, by toning down the outer folds of the the tissue surrounding the vulva of the vagina known as the labia minora.

Labiaplasty is often misconceived as being only used for aesthetic purposes, but it is also used for medical purposes. Not only does labiaplasty alter the look of the vagina, it can also boost one’s comfort and confidence. Labiaplasty patients often feel better emotionally as well as physiologically.

Here are some of the reasons one might be considering labiaplasty:

  • Insecurity and discomfort caused by large vaginal folds.
  • Embarrassment or lack of self-confidence due to nonsymmetrical labia.
  • Wanting a firmer, more toned vagina.
  • Discomfort in physical activities due to the size or thickness of the labia.
  • Discomfort when wearing tight clothes because of labial size.
  • Labial disease or injury.
  • Hanging or protruding labia.

If you are considering labiaplasty, it is important to educate yourself. Dr. Usha Rajagopal truly belives that the best patients are the most well informed patients. Every patient is different, so the exact procedure will differ as well as the results. As with any operation, there could be chances of bleeding, infection and scarring, but on minor levels. In the case of under-correction, it is possible to remedy this with a second operation. These are just a few of the reasons it is necessary to choose your surgeon carefully. After researching and verifying credentials, and getting recommendations, it is important to meet the surgeon in person.

Dr. Usha Rajagopal is one of the most respected names in this field. Her work speaks volumes about her skills, honed for more than 20 years. If you’re considering labiaplasty, and would like to schedule a consultation, give the San Francisco Plastic Surgery and Laser Center a call today.

Dr. Usha Rajagopal Yelp ReviewsI LOVE this office!  They were incredibly knowledgeable about the treatment and I felt like I was right at home with the Netflix and blankets they provided while I had my treatment.  I wasn’t scheduled to see the doctor and she came in anyways to introduce herself.  Would recommend to anyone!  Thank you Gaya, Iris, and Jennifer!

 

 

Usha Rajagopal YelpI went to Usha to get my breasts augmented after a significant weight loss.  She was very informative and made me feel very comfortable.  At first I was apprehensive about the size we chose, but 3 months post op I couldnt`t be happier with the results.  I`m feeling more confident and couldn`t have had a better experience.  I now see Usha regularly for my botox and voluma and won`t go to anyone else.  She`s the best!

 

 

Usha Rajagopal ReviewsCoolsculpting was and is the best thing to ever happen to me!!  I came to San Francisco Plastic Surgery & Laser Center two months ago for my initial free consultation. From the beginning the staff was very informative and nice.  I did my first treatment two weeks after the consultation. They told me to expect results within 1-3 months, but WOW… It’s been 1.5 months and I already see improvement.  They provided me with a treatment plan and helped prioritize the areas of my most concern. I left knowing I will most likely need additional treatments to get the improvement I truly desire. I will definitely be coming back for more Coolsculpting! They even have great package deals that I took advantage of.

High Patient Satisfaction for Labiaplasty

patient satisfaction

How can a controversial procedure have such high patient satisfaction?

Controversy is often caused by people making bold unsubstantiated statements to stir up a conversation. Cosmetic surgery or any elective procedure has historically had controversy surrounding it. Labiaplasty is no different. And like any controversy created by unproven statistics, there are always proven statistics that tell a completely different story. While labiaplasty may be thought of as controversial by some – it actually has high patient satisfaction. According to the results of an outcomes study that I conducted here at the San Francisco Plastic Surgery & Laser Center between November 2007 and October 2008, a large percentage of my labiaplasty patients were happy with their results.

The study was done on 52 patients over a twelve-month period. This was the total number of patients who underwent labiaplasty at the SF Plastic Surgery & Laser Center during the twelve-month period of the study. All 52 patients were surveyed, and the average patient satisfaction rating with the outcome of the procedure was a 9 out of 10. Nearly all of the 52 patients also reported an improvement in self-esteem as well as body image after the surgery. Their satisfaction with the recovery process was a little lower, but still relatively high: patients gave it an average of 8.25 on a 10-point scale. All 29 patients who answered the follow-up survey one month after surgery said they would recommend the procedure to friends.

Vaginal Rejuvenation Procedures

The Latest in Vaginal Rejuvenation Procedures!

There are a number of things that take a toll on our bodies. Age is one thing that is absolutely unavoidable, and a cause that is affecting us all – slowly but surely. That’s not to say there are a number of things we can do for ourselves to try to slow the effects of aging. There are a number of other things taking a toll on our bodies too though. Often times weight gain, pregnancy, and even just unavoidable aging can cause the round fatty tissue around our lower abdomen to become enlarged and even droop. This body region is medically referred to as the mons pubis area, but perhaps more commonly known in pop culture as the FUPA (fat upper pubic area) or muffin top. This area can be very hard to shrink, even with extensive exercise and strict diet. There are vaginal rejuvenation procedures that can help though! Liposuction of the mons pubis can help reduce the fat stored in your FUPA and help eliminate those unwanted muffin tops.

vaginal rejuvenation procedures

In addition to liposuction of the mons pubis, there is also the pubic lift procedure, also called the mons lift. This procedure can help reduce sagging skin by pulling up the tissue, and tightening and sculpting the area.

Fat transfer to the labia majora is another procedure to improve the contour of the labia majora by increasing the size, enhancing the shape, correct proportional imbalances, and improve firmness.

These types of surgeries are known as vaginal rejuvenation procedures and are some of the many types of mommy makeover procedures. They are becoming more and more popular with each passing year. In 2013, plastic surgeons saw a 44% increase in vaginal rejuvenation procedures alone. 

We perform these vaginal rejuvenation procedures along with many other mommy makeover procedures to help refresh and rejuvenate your body and face here at the San Francisco Plastic Surgery and Laser Center. Don’t wait any longer to get rid of your muffin top. Contact us today for more information or to schedule a consultation with Dr. Usha Rajagopal.

Femilift

Femilift Vaginal Rejuvenation

Femilift vaginal rejuvenation packages are the perfect way to revitalize your youthful feel and exuberance, and get your motor running again.  The minimally invasive procedure aims to tighten the vagina, improve vaginal dryness, help urinary incontinence, as well as possibly enhancing sexual satisfaction.

femiliftThe Femilift procedure is performed using a technologically advanced 30 watt CO2 laser probe. This unique and powerful laser is a minimally invasive technology that requires no down time after the procedure! That’s right – you’ll be back on your feet in no time.

With the Femilift laser, a fast and efficient delivery of fractionated energy is directed in 1 cm intervals along the circumference of the vaginal walls. The vaginal tissues are remodeled and collagen contraction begins. This causes tightening of the vagina and strengthening of the ligaments surrounding the urethra and bladder.

The Femilift procedure only takes about 30 minutes or less, and is performed right in the comforts of our beautiful downtown San Francisco office. Femilift is painless, meaning there is no need for anesthetics. Patients often report almost immediate return to everyday activities, including sexual intercourse.

For best results we recommend a series of three Femilift treatments. Each treatment should be performed one month apart.

Why wait any longer. Start enjoying a new lease on life today! Femilift is just one of many “mommy makeover” procedures we offer at the San Francisco Plastic Surgery and Laser Center.

If you have any questions regarding our Femilift vaginal rejuvenation packages, or would like more information about any of our other procedures feel free to check out the San Francisco Plastic Surgery & Laser Center.

Infini Laser Treatments

Infini Laser Treatments by Luctronic! A New, State of the Art Laser Treatment

Laser treatments can provide minimally invasive alternatives to services that were previously only treated surgically. Lasers are becoming more and more popular tools used in a number of different ways throughout the fields of cosmetic plastic surgery and dermatology. The Infini Laser by Lutronic is a unique state of the art technology that provides amazing non-surgical results.

laser treatmentsThe San Francisco Plastic Surgery and Laser Center prides itself on staying current with new technologies and trends. It is one of the first to provide this unique new technology. Infini laser treatments allow for complete control over the depth of treatment and enables a multi-layered approach to provide customizable treatments regardless of skin type.

The Infini Laser is used for skin treatments such as acne scar reduction and removal, wrinkle reduction, as well as the reduction of loose or sagging skin. In addition, the Infini Laser can be used for non-surgical options for services such as labia majora tightening.

We usually recommend 3-5 treatments, spaced about a month apart from each other.  The treatment itself generally ranges from about 15 minutes to one hour, depending on the size of the area being treated.

Most patients can expect to see some improvements immediately after the treatment.  Your body will rebuild collagen in the area over the next several weeks though, so full results won’t be visible for up to six months.

We are currently offering Infini non-surgical labia majora tightening for $3500. This includes three sessions, and is a great non-surgical option for many patients.

Contact our office to find out more about what Infini Laser treatments might be right for you!

Why More Women Are Undergoing Labiaplasty

What's labiaplasty

What’s labiaplasty?

More and more women are opting for Labiaplasty procedures with each passing year, yet there doesn’t seem to be a corresponding increase in the amount of information about it out there. This means that more and more women are also asking – what’s Labiaplasty?

Well, let me clear the air for everyone that has been wondering this newly trending question “what’s labiaplasty?”. It is a surgical procedure intended to alter the size and or shape of labia minora. This is accomplished by removing excess tissue. Labiaplasty, along with a number of other “mommy makeover” procedures, has risen very quickly in popularity. In fact Labiaplasty popularity rose by 44% between 2012 and 2013, with more than 5,000 procedures performed.

Some women suffer a great deal of discomfort caused by enlarged or hanging labia. This can be especially uncomfortable when wearing tight clothes or engaging in certain physical activities like riding a bike. Not only can this cause physical discomfort, but it is commonly attributed to a diminished self-confidence as well.

Dr. Christine Hamori is a board-certified plastic surgeon. Based in Duxbury, Massachusetts, she performs about four to five labiaplasty procedures a week. Dr. Hamori notes, “I feel women are more comfortable coming to a female plastic surgeon for this procedure and many patients are very happy with the outcome of this surgery. “

She’s taught a course called Labiaplasty and Beyond, discussing her techniques and also exploring how the media plays into why women want to pursue this surgery.
