Özet
Background: The demand for labia minora reduction surgery has increased due to aesthetic preferences and discomfort caused by labial hypertrophy. This study aims to share experiences with labial reconstruction using clitoral hood flaps in patients who underwent aggressive trim labiaplasty. Methods: Twenty-eight patients who had previously undergone only labiaplasty surgery were included in this study. Surgical techniques focused on preserving blood supply and achieving symmetry. Postoperative care included hospitalization, wound care training, and regular follow-up visits. Complications were monitored and managed as needed. Results: All 28 patients, comprising 23 bilateral and 5 unilateral labiaplasty cases, underwent revision surgery using 49 clitoral hood flaps. Complications occurred in 6 cases, including suture dehiscence, flap necrosis, and infection, all of which were effectively managed. All flaps maintained their viability, and high patient satisfaction was reported. Conclusion: Clitoral hood flap reconstruction following aggressive trim labiaplasty is a viable technique with minimal complications and high patient satisfaction. Further multicenter, long-term studies are necessary to validate these findings and improve surgical outcomes. Level of evidence iii: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
