“…The width of the labium minus was measured from a vertical line drawn to the base of the labium minus from the widest lateral prominence. According to the Motakef classification, labial protrusion is classified as class 1 (0 – 2 cm), class 2 (2 – 4 cm), and class 3 (> 4 cm) 12 .…”

Objective Aim of the study was to assess the feasibility of a novel technique to determine the vascularity of labia minora prior to labiaplasty. Methods A cold light source employed in laparoscopic procedures was used to illuminate the outer surface of the labia minora as described in this prospective descriptive study. Results Of the patients, 46.1% (n = 41) had upper third prominence, 36% (n = 32) had middle third prominence, and 18% (n = 16) had lower third prominence according to the Banwell classification of morphologies. Right labia minora width was 0 – 2 cm in 51.7% (n = 46), 2 – 4 cm in 47.2% (n = 42) and > 4 cm in 1.1% (n = 1) of cases. Left labia minora width was 0 – 2 cm in 52.8% (n = 47), 2 – 4 cm in 41.6% (n = 37) and > 4 cm in 5.6% (n = 5) of cases. The incidence of Anterior 2 and Posterior 1 vessels in the different morphologies were statistically significantly different (p = 0.007, p = 0.018). The Anterior 2 vessel was higher in the lower morphology group whereas the Posterior 1 vessel was higher in the upper morphology group. A central vessel was observed in 93.3% (n = 83) of patients in the left labium minus and the right labium minus. The incidence of the Posterior 1 vessel was significantly higher in the left labium minus than in the right labium minus (p = 0.021). Discussion This novel technique to assess labial vascularity using a cold light source could be very useful to reduce dehiscence by avoiding excessive resection of highly vascularized tissue. Most units can easily access a cold light source, which can be used to assess labial vascularity prior to labiaplasty.

“…Det finnes imidlertid sparsomt med data vedrørende langtidsresultater. Pasienttilfredsheten etter labiaplastikk oppgis i ulike studier, avhengig av teknikk, til over 90 % (5).…”

“…Det finnes ingen konsensus i litteraturen for klassifisering av tilstanden, men ulike lengdemål på labia minora blir benyttet (4). Hypertrofi av labia kan gi opphav til dyspareuni, kroniske urinveisinfeksjoner, irritasjon og gnaging i underlivet, problemer med intimhygienen og plager ved sportsutøvelse som gir trykk mot underlivet, slik som ridning og sykling (5,6). Psykiske plager relatert til genitalienes utseende kan hos noen kvinner vaere uttalte, og en følelse av å vaere "unormal" kan gi betydelig emosjonell lidelse.…”

“…However, upon consideration of anatomic variations, Hodgkinson and Hait ( 1 ) defined the ideal aesthetic picture of female external genitalia as the one in which the labia minora are small and not larger than the labia majora. The Motakef classification is based on the protrusion of the labia minora that exceeds the size of the labia majora ( 2 ) . The Banwell classification categorizes labia according to their shape and morphologic variations ( 3 ) .…”

“…The surgical reduction of the labia minora was first described as an aesthetic motive in the plastic surgery literature by Hodgkinson and Hait ( 1 ) . When we look at the literature, many techniques have been described for labiaplasty: deepithelialized reduction, linear incision, composite reduction, wedge reduction, W-plasty excision or Z-plasty ( 2 ) . The linear excision technique is the most preferred among gynecologists because of its simple and minimally invasive approach.…”

Aesthetic gynecology has seen increasing patient and physician demand. Although this typically falls in the reign of obstetrics and gynecology, plastic surgeons and cosmetic surgeons have also developed great interest in this field. Currently, few if any obstetrics and gynecology residency or fellowship programs teach this subject matter though inroads have taken place in plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery training programs that had the foresight to include specific training in this field. Currently, many surgeons start by first training in various established certification and preceptorship programs based in the United States and the United Kingdom. New programs worldwide in 2016-2017 have also been launched to offer certification training to interested physicians in both surgical and non-surgical treatments. A steady flow of certificate programs continues to evolve in Turkey, the Middle East, Spain, and South America, as a second wave of experts emerge. We present a review of surgical and non-surgical techniques of what is presently called “aesthetic gynecology” and the approaches of prominent gynecologic societies regarding this relatively new subspecialty.
