Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty, also called labia reduction, is a delicate surgery that reduces and reshapes the inner and outer labia of the vulva. At The Wall Center for Plastic Surgery in Shreveport, Louisiana, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Holly Casey Wall is a labiaplasty expert who was one of the first surgeons in the Shreveport-Bossier region to offer the procedure. She blends clinical knowledge, a keen aesthetic sensibility, and gentle sensitivity to create labiaplasty results that are beautiful in both form and function.
To learn more, request your consultation online or call The Wall Center at (318) 795-0801. Conveniently located in Shreveport, women visit Dr. Holly Wall for labiaplasty from Louisiana, Arkansas, and Texas.
What Is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess tissue from the labia that can cause physical discomfort and self-consciousness. The labia on one or both sides can be naturally elongated or become stretched or misshapen by childbirth or trauma.
“Labiaplasty is a life-changing surgery for those who choose to make this change.”

Why Patients Choose Dr. Holly Wall for Labiaplasty
- Stanford-trained, board-certified, female plastic surgeon
- One of the first labiaplasty surgeons in the Shreveport-Bossier area
- Completed advanced labiaplasty training with Dr. Gary Alter, MD, preeminent authority on labia surgery
- Adept in the procedure’s technically delicate closure with emphasis on preserving patient sensitivity and comfort
Who Needs It
Although labiaplasty is typically classified as a cosmetic procedure, many factors unrelated to appearance can contribute to a woman’s decision to undergo the surgery. The “inner lips,” or labia minora, are the smaller, hairless folds of skin and tissue on either side of the vaginal opening. Some women have naturally long or asymmetrical labia minora, while others experience changes due to childbirth or aging.
Uneven, extended, or oversized labia can lead to a host of concerns:
- Feelings of self-consciousness or discomfort during sexual activity
- Physical discomfort in swimsuits or tight clothing
- Reduced enjoyment of physical activities, such as cycling
Dr. Holly Wall understands that these topics aren’t always easy to talk about, but they are important to a woman’s sense of femininity and well-being. She approaches each consultation with compassion and discretion to determine whether labiaplasty would be a good fit for your goals.
Preparing for Labiaplasty
During your consultation with Dr. Holly Wall, you’ll discuss your medical history, lifestyle factors that could affect your surgery, and your short- and long-term goals. This private, one-on-one meeting is a great opportunity to share your goals for surgery and explore different avenues to create the results you want.
In some cases, Dr. Holly Wall may suggest a reduction of the labia majora, or outer lips. Some women want their outer lips to appear more youthful and full. Fat grafting can be used to plump the labia majora. Labiaplasty is also a common addition to Mommy Makeovers, too.
ThermiVa™: A Nonsurgical Alternative
In some cases, Dr. Holly Wall may suggest alternative or complementary procedures, such as nonsurgical ThermiVa™. ThermiVa may be preferable to patients who wish to avoid surgery. Although it can create some impressive results, it’s not a perfect equivalent to surgery and may not be the best choice for everyone. Dr. Holly Wall will help you find the best approach for your body.
The Surgery
Labiaplasty is an outpatient procedure. Surgery is typically less than an hour and a half and you will be asleep during surgery. Depending on the details of your surgical plan, Dr. Holly Wall uses various techniques to carefully resize and reshape your primary areas of concern. Her approach ensures natural-looking results that preserve sensation. You may return home shortly after your surgery is complete, but you’ll likely be groggy from anesthesia. Be sure you have a friend or family member to drive you.
“Because the tissue is so delicate, labiaplasty requires some of the most complicated suturing that I do.”

Results
Swelling and soreness are common after labiaplasty, so it’s important to follow Dr. Holly Wall’s directions to maintain your comfort and speed your healing. Unless your job is particularly strenuous, you can return to the office in just a few days. However, Dr. Holly Wall recommends postponing exercise and sexual activity for at least 6 weeks, as the fragile tissue needs time to heal undisturbed.
