Labiaplasty has become an increasingly popular procedure. However, the psychological outcomes of this procedure, such as the effects on women’s sex lives and psychological well-being, have received little attention from researchers to date. In addition, the investigation of factors which predict satisfaction with surgical outcomes is also lacking.
To examine the effect of labiaplasty on women’s sexual satisfaction and psychological well-being. To also identify patient characteristics which predict surgical satisfaction.
This retrospective study involved 48 adult women who had undergone a labiaplasty procedure between 3 and 204 months prior. These women completed an online questionnaire which contained measures of satisfaction with labiaplasty, genital appearance satisfaction, sexual satisfaction, and psychological well-being.
Most women were very satisfied with their labial appearance and function after surgery. The women also reported statistically significant increases in their genital appearance satisfaction (P < .001), sexual satisfaction (P = .009), and psychological well-being (P < .001) at the time of completing the questionnaire compared to their recalled levels prior to surgery. Undergoing labiaplasty to address physical/functional concerns (P = .025) as well as sexual concerns (P = .037) was associated with greater satisfaction with surgical outcomes. In contrast, experiencing post-surgery complications (P = .015) was related to lower satisfaction.
Women appear to be very satisfied with the results of their labiaplasty and they also seem to experience improvements in their sexual satisfaction and psychological well-being. Physical/functional motivations for undergoing labiaplasty are associated with greater satisfaction with outcomes.

阴唇整形术已成为一种越来越受欢迎的手术。然而,该手术的心理结果,如对女性性生活和心理健康的影响,迄今为止很少受到研究人员的关注。此外,对预测手术结果满意度的因素的研究也很缺乏。
研究阴唇整形术对女性性满意度和心理健康的影响。同时确定预测手术满意度的患者特征。
这项回顾性研究纳入了48名成年女性,她们在3至204个月前接受了阴唇整形手术。这些女性完成了一份在线问卷,其中包括对阴唇整形术的满意度、生殖器外观满意度、性满意度和心理健康的测量。
大多数女性对术后阴唇的外观和功能非常满意。与术前回忆水平相比,这些女性在完成问卷时报告称,她们的生殖器外观满意度(P <.001)、性满意度(P =.009)和心理健康(P <.001)在统计学上有显著提高。因身体/功能问题(P =.025)以及性问题(P =.037)接受阴唇整形术与对手术结果的更高满意度相关。相比之下,经历术后并发症(P =.015)与较低的满意度相关。
女性似乎对阴唇整形术的结果非常满意,她们的性满意度和心理健康也似乎有所改善。因身体/功能原因接受阴唇整形术与对结果的更高满意度相关。
