Abstract
Advances in aesthetic labia minora (LM) procedures have led to better results and fewer complications. Edge trim or wedge approaches are utilized, both of which use hidden incisions and preserve the edges of the LM. Since 1998 we have been performing a simple and reliable technique based on inferior wedge LM resection and superior pedicle flap reconstruction. While aesthetic LM reduction has been amply published, previous technical videos have not presented a detailed step-by-step description, and few studies specifically address how to estimate the amount of tissue to resect according to the degree of hypertrophy. This article and the accompanying videos provide a detailed guide that clearly outlines the senior author's technique for aesthetic LM reduction. Our experience demonstrates that superior pedicle flap reconstruction is a reliable and reproducible technique. The success of the procedure depends on patient selection, careful preoperative planning, and adequate intraoperative management.
