What to Expect
All procedures are done in a balanced and natural esthetic.
Consultation
During the consultation we will focus on creating a treatment plan that addresses your goals and fulfills your expectations. It is important for me to understand your motivation for undergoing labiaplasty so that we can accurately discuss the expected benefits of the procedure.
We will thoroughly review the surgery and time course of healing. My goal is to restore the labia to an aesthetically pleasing size and shape, eliminating irritation and discomfort while improving sexual pleasure and confidence.
Surgery
The labiaplasty procedure is performed at an accredited surgery center in Newport Beach, California, USA. Depending on your preference, sedation and local anesthesia or general anesthesia (fully asleep) are administered by a Board Certified Anesthesiologist to ensure maximal comfort and safety. The length of the procedure depends on the degree of shaping required, however, typically lasts 1.5 hours.
The incisions are disguised in the natural folds of the labia and generally heal very well, minimizing long-term visibility.
PRE-OPERATIVE GUIDANCE
Recovery
Patients are discharged home the same day and generally experience minimal discomfort, often returning to work the week following surgery. Patients are encouraged to wear loose-fitting clothing for at least a week while the incisions heal. A cold compress or ice pack may be applied for comfort. I ask my patients to avoid strenuous exercise or sexual activity for 6 weeks following the procedure in order to ensure optimal healing.
POST-OPERATIVE GUIDANCE
Results
The swelling takes several weeks to subside after which the results are visible. The results are typically long-lasting provided there is no physical trauma or further childbirth. Patients routinely express a high degree of satisfaction after undergoing this procedure.

I am SO HAPPY with my new body!!
Dr. Mowlds replaced my breast implants and gave me a full tummy tuck. My scars are so minimal! The man has good hands! He took so much time to listen to me, care about my concerns and really understand the results I was hoping for. Can I just say, THIS MAN DELIVERED!! He actually gave me better results than I was hoping for. Finally a man who keeps his word! Hahahaha! His assistant, Mallory, also took so much time with me, checked in, listened, always responded to my messages right away and was just so sweet!! Two of my friends have also gone to him for breast augmentation because of how pleased I am with my experience and results. Thank you, Dr. Mowlds, for my reconstructed body-ody!! It’s amazing now bc of your skill and artistic craftsmanship!

Dr. Mowlds is patient, kind, and he listens! And best of all he delivers!
Absolutely AMAZING! I had a breast reduction and revision done by him. I’ve wanted smaller, more manageable breasts since I developed at 16. I had a breast reduction done in the past by a Beverly Hills surgeon who didn’t listen and thought she knew better than me. We all know what it feels like to feel disappointed and unheard. I told Dr Mowlds, he heard how important it was for me to get what I always dreamed of. And he has changed my life! I have gorgeous breasts (exact size I asked for). I can do so much I was never able to do. Run, surf, snowboard. I feel free and so so thankful! 5 stars! He’s the best of the best! Highly recommend!

I’m over the moon with my results and highly recommend Dr. Mowlds to EVERYONE!
Dr. Mowlds is THE next generation of great plastic surgeons here in Newport Beach! His attention to detail and perfection while remaining realistic in the results obtained, gives you confidence in his consistent outstanding outcomes. It had been 14 years and 2 kids since my last breast augmentation and lift. I was ready for a smaller pair and needed to redo my lift and change out the old implants. I had 6 other consultations all with World Renowned plastic surgeons and knew without a doubt Dr. Mowlds was the best choice. I was comfortable from start to finish and the staff took such good care of me on the day of surgery and made any butterflies immediately disappear. After a 5.5 hour reconstructive surgery, I was amazed at how gentle Dr. Mowlds was since my pain level was well below what I had anticipated. After 3 days, I didn’t even need to take Tylenol. Now I feel lighter, my clothes fit better and I feel like a whole new person.

I loved that Dr. Mowlds treated me like a friend who he wanted to have the best experience and results possible
Dr. Mowlds is the absolute BEST at what he does. I had a botched breast augmentation, which was causing me serious health concerns, chronic chest and back pain. I was extremely nervous as I didn’t think my issue could be resolved, let’s just say my breasts needed a lot of work. He is a true artist in his field, and my breasts are proof of that. Dr. Mowlds was professional, warm, knowledgeable, talented, and great at listening to my concerns and helping me understand everything along the way. I have already recommended a few of my girlfriends to go see him.

It is quite evident Dr. Mowlds takes a lot of pride in the work that he performs!
Dr. Mowlds and his staff provided me with outstanding and professional healthcare. He always treated me with kindness and respect during our patient visits. I underwent an extensive back surgery and was not only concerned with the physical results, but additionally, the functional results of an extensive surgical closure. I am so grateful my neurosurgeon recommended and works in collaboration with Dr Mowlds. I am extremely pleased with the aesthetic results of my surgery and would not hesitate to recommend this professional practice.

After a virtual consultation, I knew Dr. Mowlds was the right choice
After consulting with numerous plastic surgeons I decided on Dr. Mowlds for my c-section scar revision and Renuvion skin tightening. I had 3 emergency c-sections that had left me with a terrible looking scar. The added bonus was that he has the Renuvion skin tightening machine which is the gold standard in skin tightening and I am amazed at my results just 3 weeks out. I am so happy with my decision and would highly recommend Dr. Mowlds for any cosmetic or reconstructive surgery.

Dr. Mowlds is a phenomenal surgeon and I feel so blessed to have had him do my surgery!!
I had symmastia breast reconstructive surgery done by Dr. Mowlds. I had lived the last 15 years with my breasts looking like a “uni-boob.” I felt so self conscious for many years. I also breast fed 2 kids so I had a lot of rippling and loss of saline in my old implants. Dr. Mowlds was extremely honest, caring and helpful with making the decision to fix my breasts. He listened to exactly what I wanted and his staff was absolutely amazing!! In order to reconstruct my breasts he used galaflex absorbable mesh to separate my breasts and make them normal again. I went with silicone implants this time and could not be happier with my results. Everyday I feel so thankful I can look in the mirror and feel normal. Dr. Mowlds is the ABSOLUTE BEST SURGEON!!
