ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore an optimal surgical approach for different types of labia minora hypertrophy and to design a better personalized surgical treatment plan for patients.Methods:From October 2017 to October 2020, 71 patients with labia minora hypertrophy were treated in the plastic surgery department of Sichuan Provincial People＇s Hospital, aged 18-38 years, with an average of 26 years. According to the type and degree of hypertrophy, the appropriate surgical method was selected. The wound healing and complications were observed after operation, and the shape of labia minora was followed up.Results:Among the 71 patients, 1 patient had postoperative hematoma and no flap necrosis after active treatment. 1 patient had poor healing of distal labia minora incision and improved after dressing change. The other patients had good blood supply of labia minora, no necrosis, no postoperative infection, hematoma and other complications. The patients were followed up for 1-6 months. The appearance of labia minora was natural, bilateral symmetry, and the incision scar was hidden. The improvement was significant compared with that before operation. The patients were satisfied with the shape and function.Conclusions:According to the degree of hypertrophy of the labia minora, the specific shape and the psychological expectation of patients, we can choose the appropriate operation method, which can achieve the aesthetic standard of symmetry and beautiful shape of the labia minora, and meet the normal physiological function and aesthetic requirements of patients.
