Labiaplasty (Vaginal Rejuvenation) in Scottsdale, AZ
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Genaro Valladolid today for a discreet conversation to determine if you're a good candidate for labiaplasty.
There are a variety of reasons why a woman may opt for labiaplasty, which is a procedure to reshape the folds of skin surrounding the vaginal opening. Some are a matter of personal aesthetic preference. For example, a woman with elongated or prominent labial tissue may feel embarrassed of the way her genitalia looks. Other reasons for pursuing surgery are because of functional problems caused by excessive labial tissue — i.e., trouble wearing tight-fitting clothing or physical discomfort while riding a bike.
Whatever a woman’s reasons for wanting labiaplasty, Dr. Genaro Valladolid is an experienced plastic surgeon who wants to help. He has helped many women benefit from an improved appearance and increased personal comfort. The quality of his results are very natural and patient satisfaction is consistently high.
Candidates for Labiaplasty
Women who experience self-consciousness or discomfort due to the size and/or shape of their labia may be great candidates for labiaplasty. Some candidates are genetically pre-disposed to large labia; others find their labia stretches out or becomes more prominent with the passage of time or after having children.
To qualify for surgery, candidates should be in good overall health and have reasonable expectations of the procedure.
Dr. Valladolid meets with every labiaplasty candidate to discuss their goals and explain what the procedure can do for them. A physical examination is normally part of the consultative process, too.
The Labiaplasty Procedure
Labiaplasty is performed on an outpatient basis and can be done under general or local anesthesia.
There are two ways to perform labiaplasty. The first is the trim method, in which excess tissue is removed from the edges of the labia, and the remaining tissue sewn up. The other is the wedge method, in which a V or pie-shaped wedge of tissue is removed from the labia and the edges of the remaining skin are sewn together. The wedge approach preserves the natural border of the labia.
Dr. Valladolid discusses the pros and cons of each approach with every candidate to decide what is best for her individual circumstances.
Recovering from Labiaplasty
After labiaplasty, the genital area is usually swollen, bruised and sore. Prescription or over-the-counter pain medication can help to alleviate discomfort, and plenty of rest is recommended. Icing the genitals can help reduce swelling and pain.
Dr. Valladolid sees patients at his office during recovery to check on their healing progress and recommend when to resume work, exercise and other normal activities. He can also discuss any aftereffects or symptoms the patient experiences and answer questions.
Most patients return to work within five to seven days and exercise within three to four weeks. Sexual intercourse should be avoided for four to six weeks.
I want to take a moment to say Thank You for the exceptional care I am receiving at Valladolid Plastic Surgery. Dr. Valladolid, I truly appreciate your expertise and knowledge. Rubi, Gaby, Adriana, you always make me feel like a priority and take such good care of me. I would recommend Dr. Valladolid and his team without reservation. They run an excellent practice.
On April 10, 2026, I had my explanation surgery. Everything went very well, everything was very well explained. I thank God first for having found a good specialist and second to Dr. Valladolid for his good work. Blessings to him and his entire team who took such good care of me.
In 2023, right before my wedding Dr. Valladolid surgically fixed my botched lips which were filled with silicone and scar tissue (from another person) . They looked great and I felt at ease on my wedding day. Fast forward to July 2025 he did my lip filler (the right way) and Botox. He takes his time and seems to genuinely care about his patients. I love the way my face and lips look and I will only be going to Valladolid for my injections.
Both the doctor and the staff here were amazing! I was comfortable from the start and had all of my questions addressed thoroughly. My procedure was stress-free and I could not have asked for better support during the recovery. I would highly recommend Valladolid Plastic Surgery to anyone!
