“Dr. Sharabi has amazing bedside manner. She made me feel extremely comfortable during every step of the process because of her warm and familiar personality. When I came in for my initial consultation, Dr. Sharabi was honest about the results I could expect from the specific procedure I inquired about. I valued her honesty because there were aspects to the recovery that other surgeons had not mentioned – Dr. Sharabi was my third consultation. I ended up choosing a different procedure that better aligned with my goals and had a simpler recovery. In addition, Tara, the business manager and care coordinator, was organized and responsive. She was also extremely personable. My procedure went smoothly and I will be recommending Dr. Sharabi to my friends and family.”

Labiaplasty: Comfort, Confidence, Authentically You
Maybe you’ve been uncomfortable for years and never had the words to talk about it. Maybe you’re self-conscious during intimacy or exercise. Maybe you just want to feel like yourself again. Labiaplasty addresses all of this, the physical discomfort and the emotional weight of not feeling right in your own body. And that’s completely valid.
What is labiaplasty?
It’s a procedure that reshapes the labia minora (the inner folds of the vulva) to reduce size, improve symmetry, or reshape for comfort. Some women experience chafing, irritation, or discomfort during exercise, intercourse, or even wearing certain clothing. Others feel self-conscious about appearance. Labiaplasty can address both, reducing physical irritation while helping you feel confident and comfortable in your own body. The goal is always function and confidence, not conforming to any “ideal.”
Why Dr. Sharabi is different
She actually listens. She’ll sit with you for an hour, ask the real questions, and genuinely understand what “feeling like yourself” means to you, not what she thinks you should look like. She’s been doing this for 15+ years, trained at MD Anderson, and ran patient safety at Kaiser. But more than credentials, she’s a female surgeon who gets it. She knows this isn’t vanity. She knows it’s about comfort, confidence, and reclaiming your body on your terms. And she has the integrity to tell you if surgery isn’t right for you. Because your health and your peace of mind matter more than any procedure.
You deserve a surgeon who sees you, listens to you, and prioritizes you. That’s Dr. Sharabi.

Labiaplasty FAQs
When can I return to exercise after labiaplasty?
Most patients can return to light daily activity within a few days. Strenuous exercise and workouts should be avoided for 2-3 weeks to allow proper healing. Dr. Sharabi will provide specific timeline recommendations based on your individual recovery during your post-op consultations.
Will labiaplasty look natural?
Yes. Dr. Sharabi prioritizes natural appearance in all her labiaplasty procedures. She carefully selects surgical techniques based on your anatomy and goals, always emphasizing natural results, symmetry and proportion, preservation of sensitivity, and minimal, well-concealed incisions.
What is labiaplasty recovery time?
Recovery after labiaplasty is typically manageable and well-tolerated. Most patients experience mild swelling and soreness in the first week, with noticeable improvement within 1-2 weeks. Gradual healing continues over several weeks, and you’ll receive detailed guidance to support the healing process.
When can I return to normal activities after labiaplasty?
Most patients can resume normal daily activities within 1-2 weeks. However, you should avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and sexual activity for 2-3 weeks. Dr. Sharabi will provide a detailed recovery timeline during your post-operative appointments based on your individual healing.
Who is a good candidate for labiaplasty?
Good candidates are healthy women who are experiencing concerns such as irritation, discomfort during exercise, asymmetry, or excess tissue. You should be non-smoker or willing to quit, have realistic expectations, and be seeking improvement in comfort and confidence rather than a specific “look.”
Is labiaplasty painful?
Labiaplasty is performed under anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Post-operative discomfort is typically mild to moderate and manageable with prescribed pain medication. Most patients report the discomfort is less than expected and resolves within the first week.
