Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty in Tampa Bay
Labial discomfort and vaginal laxity affect more women than most people realize, and yet many women wait years before seeking help, unsure whether what they are experiencing is something that can actually be addressed. It can.

Bedi and Dr. Pasquale Tolomeo are triple board-certified surgeons who approach every intimate procedure with the precision, compassion, and discretion every patient deserves.

What Are Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty?
For many women, labial discomfort or vaginal laxity develops gradually and becomes something they quietly adapt to rather than address. Labiaplasty and vaginoplasty are designed to change that. Labiaplasty addresses the size, shape, and symmetry of the labia minora when it causes physical irritation, discomfort during activity, or aesthetic concerns that affect confidence. Vaginoplasty restores tone and tightness to the vaginal canal when laxity from childbirth or aging has reduced sensation or physical comfort.
Both procedures are performed under anesthesia and completed as outpatient surgery, with most patients returning to normal activity within a few weeks.
What Can Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty Include?
Both procedures are highly customizable, and your treatment plan may include one or a combination of the following depending on your anatomy and goals.
Labiaplasty: Excess or asymmetrical labial tissue is carefully removed or reshaped through discreetly placed incisions designed to minimize visible scarring and achieve a natural, proportionate result.
Vaginoplasty: Excess vaginal tissue is removed, and the surrounding muscles are tightened and sutured to restore structure and function to the vaginal canal.
Clitoral Hood Reduction: A minor procedure commonly combined with labiaplasty to address disproportionate or enlarged clitoral hood tissue and achieve a more balanced, comfortable result.
Combination with Mommy Makeover: Patients planning a Mommy Makeover may choose to include labiaplasty or vaginoplasty in the same surgical session, addressing intimate changes alongside other post-pregnancy concerns in a single recovery period.
During your consultation, Dr. Bedi or Dr. Tolomeo will take the time to understand your concerns and recommend a plan that makes sense for your body and your goals.
How Are Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty Performed?
All procedures at Tampa Surgical Arts are performed at our fully accredited AAAHC surgical center, ensuring the highest standards of patient safety and care. General or local anesthesia with sedation will be used depending on the scope of your procedure, and you will need someone to drive you home following surgery.

You will have the opportunity to ask every question you have, and our team will walk you through every step of the process so you always know what to expect.

What to Expect Before and After Your Procedure

Common preoperative instructions include avoiding certain medications and supplements in the weeks leading up to your procedure and following any dietary guidelines provided by your care team.
After Your Procedure
Some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area is normal during the first one to two weeks. Detailed aftercare instructions covering hygiene, activity restrictions, and return to sexual activity will be provided before you leave. Most patients return to light daily activities within one to two weeks, with full recovery and final results typically visible within two to three months.

How long do the results of labiaplasty and vaginoplasty last?
Results from both procedures are considered long-lasting. Labiaplasty results are generally permanent, as the reshaped tissue does not regrow. Vaginoplasty results can be affected by future pregnancies, which is why patients who have completed their family planning tend to see the most durable outcomes.
Can labiaplasty and vaginoplasty be performed at the same time?
Yes. Combining both procedures in a single surgical session is common and reduces overall recovery time. Your surgeon will assess your anatomy and goals during your consultation to determine whether a combined procedure is the right approach for you.
Will these procedures affect sensation?
Both procedures are designed to improve comfort and, in many cases, enhance sensation. Vaginoplasty in particular is often sought by patients who have experienced reduced sensation following childbirth. Your surgeon will explain what you can realistically expect based on your specific anatomy and the procedures performed.
Is anesthesia required for labiaplasty and vaginoplasty?
Yes. Labiaplasty can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation for smaller cases, while vaginoplasty and combined procedures are typically performed under general anesthesia. Your surgeon will recommend the most appropriate option based on the scope of your procedure during your consultation.
