dc.description.abstractBackground How much labial tissue should be left after labiaplasty is a controversial issue.Objectives The objective was to investigate the effect of residual labial tissue following labiaplasty operations on sexual function.Methods A total of 150 females who underwent labiaplasty between 2019 and 2021 and their partners were included in the study. In this retrospective study, linear labiaplasty technique was applied according to the patient's request. Patients were either below 1 cm or above 1 cm according to the remaining labial width at follow-up. The remaining labial tissues were classified according to the Motakef classification. Patients with a labial width above 1 cm were included in Group 1, and patients with a labial width below 1 cm were included in Group 2. Sexual function, sexual experience, body image, and erectile function of their partners were compared preoperatively and 2 years postoperatively with appropriate questionnaires.Results Sexual function, sexual experience, and body image of females improved in all patients. However, the improvement was more apparent with with remaining labial tissue of greater than 1 cm. The increase in the survey results of the partners was found to be similar.Conclusions The sexual function of the patients was better when the width of the labium was longer than 1 cm. This may be due to better protection of the neurovascular structures. This favorable effect was also seen in the subjective evaluation of the partners.
