If you are bothered by the appearance of camel toe in leggings, swimwear, workout clothes, or other fitted clothing, you may be wondering whether labiaplasty can help reduce it.
The answer is yes, depending on what is creating the fullness in the first place.
For some women, prominent or elongated labia minora, or inner labia, are responsible for the visible contour. In this case, labiaplasty may help create a smoother appearance. For others, the fullness may be coming from the labia majora, or outer labia, or the mons pubis. These concerns may require a different approach.

Labiaplasty and clitoral hood reduction are two procedures that address different areas of the vulva, but they are often discussed together and, for some patients, may be performed at the same time.
The key difference comes down to anatomy. Labiaplasty typically focuses on the labia minora, or inner labia, while clitoral hood reduction addresses excess tissue of the clitoral hood, the natural fold of tissue that covers and protects the clitoris.
At her Beverly Hills practice, dual board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Maryam Zamani takes an individualized and conservative approach to both procedures. Rather than treating labiaplasty as a one-size-fits-all surgery, she considers […]
If you are considering labiaplasty, one of your first questions may be: How painful is labiaplasty? Given the sensitivity of the area, it is understandable to have concerns about discomfort both during the procedure and throughout recovery.
The good news is that labiaplasty is generally a well-tolerated procedure. At her Beverly Hills practice, dual board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Maryam Zamani often performs labiaplasty with her patients awake using local anesthesia, with additional options available to help patients feel relaxed and comfortable.
After surgery, patients can expect some swelling, tenderness, and pressure as the area heals, but discomfort is typically manageable and improves […]
If exercise is part of your regular routine, you may be wondering how long you will need to take a break after labiaplasty. While you will need to avoid strenuous exercise as your incisions heal, this does not mean spending your entire recovery in bed.
In fact, gentle walking can be an important part of recovery. The key is knowing when and how to gradually increase your activity without placing unnecessary pressure or friction on the healing tissues.
At her Beverly Hills practice, dual board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Maryam Zamani typically asks her patients to wait at least six weeks before returning […]
If you are considering labiaplasty, you may be wondering: How long does swelling last after labiaplasty?
Swelling is a normal part of the healing process and is typically most noticeable during the first several days after surgery. While significant improvement usually occurs during the first few weeks, it can take approximately six weeks for most swelling to resolve. A small amount of residual swelling may continue for several months as the tissues fully heal.
At her Beverly Hills practice, dual board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Maryam Zamani guides patients through each stage of labiaplasty recovery, including how to manage swelling, when to return […]
If you are considering labiaplasty, you may be wondering: Will labiaplasty affect sensation?
The answer requires an important distinction. A carefully planned labiaplasty is designed to preserve normal sensation while removing only the excess labial tissue responsible for concerns such as pulling, chafing, irritation, or discomfort. However, as with any surgery, temporary changes in sensation can occur during the healing process, and permanent sensory changes are a potential risk that should be discussed before surgery.
At her Beverly Hills practice, dual board-certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Maryam Zamani takes a conservative, anatomy-focused approach to labiaplasty. Her goal is not simply to make […]
Have you ever seen a breast augmentation that almost looks like two breasts sitting on top of each other? This is often referred to as a double bubble deformity, a breast contour irregularity that can occur when the natural breast tissue, breast crease, and implant are not in harmony.
While double bubble can occur for several reasons, thoughtful surgical planning can help minimize the risk. Understanding the patient’s natural anatomy, tissue quality, breast fold, and how a particular implant will interact with those structures is an important part of creating a smooth, natural-looking breast augmentation result.
Below, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. […]
Labiaplasty is a type of vaginal rejuvenation surgery that offers numerous aesthetic benefits for women in Beverly Hills. Pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, and genetics can all cause irregularities with the length, thickness, coloration, and symmetry of the labia majora and minora. Labiaplasty can effectively address these cosmetic issues by recontouring the labia.
However, labiaplasty isn’t only performed for women seeking cosmetic changes. This procedure also provides a number of functional benefits for women struggling with physical issues caused by excess labial tissue. In this blog post, we’ll discuss five functional issues that labiaplasty is often used to correct.
#1. Pain, Irritation, and Discomfort […]
Surgical breast enhancement has been performed for decades to improve breast shape, enhance breast size, and refine the overall appearance of the breasts. While the procedure can provide beautiful and natural-looking results, surgery is not for everyone. So, what do you do if you want to enhance the appearance of your breasts without surgery? At Zamani Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, CA, we offer a minimally invasive approach to breast enhancement using AlloClae.
What Is AlloClae?
AlloClae is an advanced, innovative, FDA-approved injectable fat tissue matrix specifically designed for non-surgical breast and body contouring. AlloClae is made from a purified form of […]
Your workouts are part of who you are, not just something you do. There comes a point when your body feels ready to move again, even before your recovery timeline says it’s time. Preservation breast augmentation uses a tissue-preserving approach designed to maintain natural breast structures and, when appropriate, minimize disruption to the pectoralis major muscle.
For patients who train consistently, move with intention, or simply want to feel comfortable in every part of their active lifestyle, one question always rises to the top: When is it safe to get back to the gym? Dr. Maryam Zamani guides her patients through […]
When patients come to Dr. Zamani for breast augmentation, one of the questions she hears most is: how do you actually choose the right implant, when there are hundreds of options out there?
It’s a fair question. Implant selection isn’t about picking a popular size off a shelf — it’s about matching an implant to two things: your anatomy and your unique goals. This is also why she always caution patients against walking in wanting “their friend’s implants” or a specific size they saw on someone else. The result you loved on another person came from their body, not yours. The […]
One of the most important — and most misunderstood — decisions in breast augmentation isn’t the implant itself, but where it’s placed. Patients often come to me having heard the terms “over the muscle” and “under the muscle,” but the reality is more nuanced, and getting this decision right is central to how natural, comfortable, and long-lasting the results will be.
Here’s how I think through implant pocket placement with my patients.
Above the Muscle: Why Subfascial Is Not the Old “Over the Muscle”
When patients hear “over the muscle,” many picture the older subglandular technique, where the implant sits directly […]
