Labia augmentation with hyaluronic acid or autologous fat

If the labia minora are too large and protrude below the labia majora, this can become a problem not only visually but also functionally. Friction (e.g. during sport or when wearing tight trousers) can lead to inflammation. In addition to a Surgical reduction of the labia minoraDepending on the severity of the problem, an enlargement of the labia minora can also solve the problem.

The same applies to age-related tissue loss in the area of the labia minora. At Dr Michaela Montanari's practice, we offer filler or autologous fat injections for this purpose. RF mesoneedling with the specially developed filler PrimaVera can also be considered for additional tightening of the labia.

What is the function of the labia minora?

The outer labia have the function of closing off the vaginal entrance and protecting the vagina from foreign bodies, dehydration and inflammation. Labia minora cannot adequately fulfil this function. This is why the balance between form and function must be maintained during a correction.

What happens during labia augmentation?

During labia augmentation with hyaluronic acid or autologous fat, the desired filler is injected into the labia minora in a minimally invasive procedure. The amount depends on how much is needed for the individual.
