Gynecologists Alarmed by Plastic Surgery Trend
One side was longer than the other side. … It was something that bothered me,” said Kari, a 36-year-old labiaplasty patient of Beverly Hills, California, plastic surgeon Fardad Forouzanpour. (She did not want to give her last name.) “It makes me more comfortable. I like the way that it looks.”
She said her boyfriend was not involved in her decision, but she did “look at a few Playboys here and there.”
One patient, who did not want to use her name, said she had surgery because she hated the look of her labia, even though her husband had no problem with her appearance.
Other procedures include creating a new hymen for “revirgination” and “G-spot amplification,” which involves injecting the area in the front wall of the vagina with collagen or another filler to enhance sexual gratification. In some cases, patients may not leave satisfied. One way Miklos seeks clients is by running a website called botchedlabia.com, where women who have already experienced complications can get advice on revisions.
