Labiaplasty is considered as a minor surgery but it does involve cutting into the labia minora. Your surgeon will use local anesthesia but a little pain and swelling will be involved following the procedure. Meanwhile, your surgeon will prescribe you medication to lower down the post-operative symptoms including bruisiness and swelling.

Labiaplasty comes with few risks such as soreness, bruising and swelling for up to 2 weeks. Your routine life may become difficult as you may feel a little uncomfortable while peeing and sitting. Other risks involved are bleeding, infection, scarring of tissue and reduced sensitivity of the genitals. Allergies to anesthesia and blood clots are common risks of surgeries.

It depends on how much tissue is present on the labia to be reduced during the surgery. If there is heavy amount of tissue before a labiaplasty, then your sexual partner will definitely feel the difference. Your sexual partner can also feel the difference in its shape and size once the labiaplasty is performed.
