Ask Dr. Poucher

"I'm very uncomfortable in tight pants, bathing suits - even some underwear. What's the best approach for labiaplasty? I want an "innie" - where all the tissue is "tucked in," and for the darker part of the skin to be removed. Can I get this procedure at 18 years old?"

"I'm not sure a "trim" or "wedge" labiaplasty method is best for my case. Which is better?"

"Can clitoromegaly be "fixed?" My clitoris is too big."

"Can clitoromegaly be "fixed?" My clitoris is too big."

"After using androgens, my clitoris has become too large and looks like a small penis. I started treatment for vaginal laxity. Help!"

"How many weeks do I need to wait before getting a ThermiVa treatment after labiaplasty? I would like to tighten both my labia and vaginal canal."

"I have a mild case of clitoromegaly. it is masked in the non-aroused state, however when I am aroused, my clitoris protrudes more than usual and causes me a lot of psychological distress, as it looks like a small penis. Also, if I am aroused, there is a sense of physical discomfort with the protrusion when I cross my legs or am walking or sitting down, as it rubs against the labia majora. Would a clitoropexy fix this?"

"I’m interested in getting labiaplasty along with clitoral hood reduction, but my main concern is the clitoral hood and my clitoris. My clitoral hood and my clitoris are both kind of big and I’m afraid that reducing the size of the hood might make my clitoris look protruded and become more sensitive."

"I've been bothered by the appearance of my right inner labia since puberty. I'm wondering how well a labiaplasty would work with making the left and right sides match better. Is it acheiveable to get the right side into a similar shape to the left without operating on both sides?"

"Can I do more than three ThermiVa treatments? Would the results be better if I asked my practitioner to turn the device to a higher temperature? I would like to see tightening to my labia majora."
