I had a wedge reduction and had no pain and now several years later, I am a happy patient. I hope yours went well.

Enlargement of the labia can cause great distress and affect a woman so much. The cause for this not known but is often familial and there can be a hormonal basis. With age the skin becomes looser and the labia then become less supported and any enlargement is more obvious.
