How to See Before and After Labiaplasty Photos

Labiaplasty is a cosmetic surgery procedure that reduces the size of your labia and can change their shape. Viewing before and after photos of a labiaplasty can decide if the procedure is for you.

Instructions

• 1

  Prepare yourself to view graphic photos. If you don't like looking at your genitals, the pictures may make you squeamish.

• 2

  Choose a time and place where you can be alone and comfortable while viewing them. You may have to go through hundreds of photos. The more you see, the better idea you'll have of what type of work each doctor does. Avoid viewing these pictures on the family computer in the living room when the kids are home, or at the library where your monitor is exposed. A private setting will allow you the freedom to closely study the pictures.

• 3

  Look for photos accompanied by information describing the patient and the procedure. This general information can show similarities to your situation and what a likely outcome of labiaplasty could be.

• 4

  Compare pictures of labiaplasty from different surgeons. The final results of this procedure are based on the surgeon's idea of what looks cosmetically pleasing. This is a subjective decision, so study the photos to discover the surgeon's sensibilities.

• 5

  Ask each surgeon for additional before and after photos. Often only the best results are put on their websites. However, they may have a book compiled of all of the surgeries they have performed.
