What is intimate surgery?

Intimate surgery at LIVION in Hamburg

Intimate surgery at LIVION involves various surgical procedures in the female genital area. These procedures serve to improve aesthetics, but in some cases also to make functional corrections in the genital area.

At LIVION in Hamburg, we offer the following operations: labia reduction, labia augmentation, mons pubis reduction, and clitoral hood reduction. After undergoing genital correction, our patients report not only physical relief. Their increased self-esteem often gives them a new desire for sex. They also feel freer and more uninhibited, for example when visiting the sauna, at the beach, or even when dating.

How does a procedure work?

Our individualized treatment approach

Depending on the procedure you choose, the process may vary slightly. In general, all procedures at LIVION in Hamburg aim to provide the perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality. Our goal is to achieve a symmetrical, natural result with which you feel comfortable. Therefore, each treatment is preceded by a detailed consultation.

The procedures themselves usually take 1–1.5 hours and can be performed under local anesthesia or, upon request, general anesthesia. In most cases, you can leave the clinic afterward.

For labia minora reduction, excess tissue is carefully and minimally invasively removed using an electrocautery device, which accelerates healing. The incision edges are then precisely closed with absorbable sutures under magnification.

For labia majora augmentation, we offer treatments with either hyaluronic acid or autologous fat, the latter being a long-term option. Both methods use natural or patient-derived fillers, eliminating allergy or rejection risks. Statistically, fat transfer is preferred more often due to its permanent results.

During clitoral hood reduction, we work with you to determine the desired change and precisely measure how much excess clitoral tissue should be removed. The tissue is carefully excised with minimal bleeding, and the incision edges are closed with absorbable sutures. In rare cases, additional deep repositioning of the clitoris (caudalization) may be beneficial. Clitoral hood correction can be performed alone or combined with labia minora reduction or labia majora augmentation.

Mons pubis reduction is performed via liposuction. A tumescent solution is introduced through a small incision above the pubic mound, after which excess tissue is gently removed with a fine cannula. If necessary, the skin can be tightened with a laser. In some cases, combining mons pubis reduction with scar correction or a lower abdominal lift can be advantageous.

What you need to bear in mind after surgery

Aftercare following intimate surgery

Our practice team will support you before, during and after the operation. After labia reduction and clitoral hood reduction, we will apply a dressing consisting of antiseptic ointment, compresses and a sanitary towel to protect and promote the healing process. You can change this dressing yourself if necessary. We also use self-dissolving suture material for these operations, so there is no need to remove the stitches later. Mild swelling is normal after all procedures, and regular cooling can support the healing process. You can usually resume your normal daily routine the following day, but we recommend taking it easy for the next 7–10 days. Sport and sexual intercourse are usually possible 2-4 weeks after the procedure.

Intimate surgery includes aesthetic and functional procedures in the female genital area. This includes labiaplasty (reduction or augmentation of the labia), clitoral hood reduction, and mons pubis reduction. The goal is to improve physical comfort and self-esteem. Many patients report increased quality of life, enhanced sexual satisfaction, and greater confidence after the procedure.

We offer various surgical procedures in the intimate area. These include labiaplasty, where excess tissue is removed, and labial augmentation, which can be performed using hyaluronic acid or autologous fat.

All procedures are performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia or, upon request, under general anesthesia and usually take 1 to 1.5 hours. A detailed consultation is conducted beforehand to consider your wishes and the medical findings. The techniques are particularly tissue-friendly, minimally invasive, and aim for a natural and symmetrical result.
