Dr Basu was amazing. The problem was in quite a personal area and he made me feel very relaxed and was non judgmental and invited a female chaperone to make me feel relaxed. Would definitely recommend this place to all those who are looking for an informed doctor and a clear strategy forward!

The procedure
Step By Step Procedure
How is it done?

The surgeon gently removes a small amount of excess skin from the clitoral hood. It is carefully shaped to make it look natural and dissolvable stitches are used to help you heal smoothly.

Treatment Duration
How long does the procedure take?

The surgery only takes 30 minutes to 1 hour. You can go home the same day after the procedure.

Surgery Discomfort
Is it painful?

You may feel some soreness, mild swelling, or tenderness after the surgery. Pain reliever and the right aftercare advice will keep the discomfort under control.

Achieve Comfort And Appearance
Can you pair it with other treatments?

Can you pair it with other treatments?
Yes. It can be done together with labiaplasty. These procedures can greatly improve comfort and appearance, allowing you to recover once instead of having two separate surgeries.

Regarding Sexual Sensation
Will it affect sexual feelings?

Since the procedure is often done to improve comfort and sensitivity, results vary from each individual so it is important to discuss any concerts to your surgeon before the procedure.
