This study introduces an innovative butterfly-like maneuver for labiaplasty, a common labia minora reduction procedure. The technique temporarily attaches labia minora to the inner thigh, improving precision and asymmetry evaluation during surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Gynecology

Background:

  • Labiaplasty is a frequently requested genital rejuvenation procedure.
  • Hypertrophic labia minora can cause aesthetic and functional concerns.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an innovative surgical maneuver for labiaplasty.
  • To enhance precision and ease of labia minora reduction.

Main Methods:

  • A novel technique involving temporary attachment of labia minora to the inner thigh using stitches.
  • The maneuver creates a butterfly-wing-like appearance for stabilization.
  • Study included 12 patients with hypertrophic labia minora.

Main Results:

  • The butterfly-like maneuver facilitated precise evaluation and resection of hypertrophic labia minora.

  • All patients achieved anatomically configured labia minora postoperatively.
  • One patient required revision for immediate bleeding.

    • Conclusions:

    • The butterfly-like maneuver is an effective and precise technique for labiaplasty.
    • This method aids in managing labia minora asymmetry and hypertrophic tissue.
    • The technique offers a valuable addition to labiaplasty procedures.
