title: [Aesthetic and functional corrections of the female genital area].
abstract: In the last few years, we have performed an increasing number of genital reshaping procedures in females. Most frequently we carried out corrections of the labia, followed by operations to reduce the size of the clitoris and the pubic area. Psychological as well as functional complaints were the reasons for the decision to undergo a surgical correction. After a large number of operations we have gained great experience and developed specific operation techniques. The results are functionally reliable and aesthetically pleasing with a very low rate of complications and a high level of patient satisfaction.
