Labia Majora Reduction Before and After Photos

Labia majora reduction is a cosmetic gynecologic procedure designed to reduce the size and reshape the labia majora, also known as the outer vaginal lips. Some women develop enlarged or elongated labia majora due to aging, genetics, pregnancy, childbirth, weight fluctuations, or loss of skin elasticity. Excess tissue may cause discomfort during exercise or intimacy, irritation while wearing fitted clothing, or cosmetic concerns about the appearance of the vulva. Labia majora reduction removes excess skin and tissue to create a smoother, more balanced, and naturally contoured appearance while preserving normal anatomy and function.

The before and after photos below feature real patients who underwent labia majora reduction performed by Dr. John Miklos and Dr. Robert Moore. These images demonstrate how the procedure can reduce excess tissue, improve symmetry, restore a more youthful contour, and enhance both comfort and confidence. Every procedure is carefully customized to each patient’s anatomy, symptoms, and aesthetic goals to achieve natural-looking, individualized results.

Women often choose labia majora reduction to address:

  • Enlarged or elongated labia majora
  • Excess skin of the outer vaginal lips
  • Labial asymmetry
  • Loose or sagging labia following aging or weight loss
  • Changes associated with pregnancy or childbirth
  • Discomfort during exercise or intimacy
  • Irritation caused by fitted clothing or swimwear
  • Cosmetic concerns involving the appearance of the vulva

While these before and after photos demonstrate real surgical outcomes, every woman’s anatomy, healing process, and results are unique. During your consultation, Dr. John Miklos and Dr. Robert Moore perform a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether labia majora reduction alone or in combination with procedures such as labia majora augmentation, labiaplasty, or other vaginal rejuvenation procedures is the most appropriate treatment to achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results.
