Clitoral Hood Reduction
"Men are from Mars and women are from Venus." That's a popular adage that serves to point out how different men and women are. And when it comes to sexual organs, that truth still holds. For women, having enlarged genitalia is not only embarrassing, but it can be uncomfortable and hinder their sexual experience. For that reason, plastic surgeons have perfected a procedure to restructure and reduce the size of the clitoral hood in clitoral hood reduction surgery. Often done with a labiaplasty—a procedure to reduce the size of the folds surrounding the vulva—this is a simple office procedure that can improve a woman's self-confidence and pleasure, and eliminate pain that these enlarged genitalia may have caused. However, there are risks, including scarring and infection, several weeks of post-operative pain, uneven results, and possibly even troubling changes in sensation making it important to consult a certified plastic surgeon.
