Labiaplasty, also known as vaginal rejuvenation or vaginal surgery, can improve the appearance of the labia minora using radiofrequency (RF) technology. Labiaplasty can tighten and lift vaginal tissues that have stretched over time, due to aging, intercourse, or childbirth. The gradual stretching of tissues can result in an older-looking, lax appearance that may affect self-confidence. Many women look to undergo vaginal rejuvenation to improve vaginal aesthetics and enhance sexual pleasure. There are different labiaplasty techniques available, depending on your procedure goals. Minimally invasive radiofrequency energy can be used to achieve a firmer-looking labia without the downtime of traditional vaginal surgery. Additionally, surgical labiaplasty can be performed for more substantial results.
Multiple approaches can be utilized when performing labiaplasty. During radiofrequency vaginal rejuvenation, radiofrequency energy is directed to the labia. Heat from the radiofrequency device tightens vaginal tissues and encourages the production of new collagen fibers below the skin. These collagen fibers can improve skin elasticity to achieve firmer-looking, youthful results.
Labiaplasty can also be performed surgically to enhance the labia minora. Your vaginal surgeon will carefully trim and reposition vaginal tissues to sculpt the labia and improve shape. Additionally, clitoral hood reduction may be performed as part of your labiaplasty surgery to improve pleasure during intercourse.

Dr. Asaadi will evaluate you to determine if you are a candidate for vaginal rejuvenation. If you are looking to enhance vaginal contours and improve the appearance of your labia, then labiaplasty may be ideal for you. Dr. Asaadi can work with you to develop a specialized treatment plan and can advise which vaginal rejuvenation techniques may be best to achieve your procedure goals.
Labiaplasty patients will receive pre-care instructions before undergoing vaginal surgery. These guidelines may include dietary restrictions, as well as limits on certain supplements and medications. Vaginal rejuvenation patients are encouraged to plan for a few days of rest and recovery immediately following treatment. You should arrange for a friend or loved one to escort you to and from your labiaplasty procedure.
Patients undergoing radiofrequency labiaplasty can expect less downtime and recovery than those undergoing labiaplasty surgery. Moderate swelling, bruising, and tenderness is common following treatment. Patients should refrain from strenuous activities, as well as intercourse, in subsequent weeks. Dr. Asaadi and our staff will provide specific post-treatment guidelines and are on-hand to answer any questions you may have regarding your labiaplasty procedure.
Patients can expect to see natural-looking labiaplasty results following treatment, including improvements to vaginal contours. Traditional vaginal surgery can achieve longer-lasting, more substantial results than radiofrequency vaginal rejuvenation.
It is important that you choose a skilled labiaplasty surgeon who understands your individual anatomy, as every patient’s body is different. When the right plastic surgeon performs vaginal rejuvenation, there is usually no need for a revision. Dr. Asaadi stresses the importance of choosing a qualified, experienced, and board-certified plastic surgeon when considering your labiaplasty procedure.
