Abstract:
Female genital plastic surgery usually includes labiaplasty, labia majora augmentation, and vaginoplasty. There are two possible reasons for patients to seek such operations: functional and aesthetic. This article summarizes and comments on these operations and points out that plastic surgeons need to select appropriate surgical indications, prevent and treat possible complications. At the same time, the wishes of patients should be respected.
