What is lipofilling?
As the body ages, so does the skin. Skin becomes looser, loses volume, and this can cause insecurity in women. Even the vagina changes as we grow older. The labia can become looser and lose volume. We understand only too well that this can cause a lot of problems and we will gladly help you by filling in the external labia using your own body fat.
Filling the external labia with your own body fat is called lipofilling. First, we remove some of your own tissue – this is called liposuction. Fat is sucked out and scraped away from, for example, the stomach or the buttocks. The procedure is carried out under a general anaesthetic. This means that you will be fully sedated and will not be awake during the procedure. You will not remember anything from the procedure afterwards.
Once the liposuction is completed, the fat is then injected into the labia, restoring the volume in the labia, making them look and feel younger.
When am I a suitable candidate for lipofilling?
You are a good candidate for this procedure when your skin has become looser and lost its volume.
What are the advantages of having lipofilling done?
- Restoration of the labia contours

- Results are visible immediately
