Labia majora augmentation is a non-surgical modern aesthetic procedure performed to restore volume and improve the aesthetic appearance of the outer lips (labia majora) in the genital area. Genital tissue can lose elasticity and volume over time due to aging, hormonal changes, pregnancies, childbirths, or rapid weight loss. This may cause the outer lips to appear sagging or weakened, which can have a negative impact on a woman's self-confidence. Labia majora augmentation uses safe fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, or autologous fat transfer (fat from the patient’s own body) to restore the form of this area, resulting in a firmer, younger, and more aesthetically pleasing genital region.
In our clinic, the labia majora augmentation procedure is carefully planned by Op. Dr. Semra Capar, tailored to the patient’s anatomical structure and individual aesthetic expectations. For the patient's comfort, the application is performed under local anesthesia in a sterile clinic environment, using micro-cannulas or fine needles. The procedure typically lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, and our patients can immediately return to their daily social and professional lives without the need for a recovery period.
Labia majora augmentation is a very safe and minimally invasive procedure. It is expected to experience mild swelling, edema, or sensitivity in the area during the first few days post-procedure, which are temporary. The durability of hyaluronic acid-based fillers typically ranges from 6 months to 1 year, with approximately 70-80% of the filler naturally being absorbed by the body over time. To maintain the aesthetic result and preserve the desired volume, the procedure can be repeated at certain intervals when the effects begin to fade.
