"After meeting her, I felt so calm and confident..."
Dr. Shih is the best! I was so anxious leading up to my appointment but after meeting her, I felt so calm and confident that I went to the right place. She immediately put me at ease, explained my situation and options, and answered all of my questions.
The surgery was a success, and I have my life back! The recovery was quick, I have almost no scarring, and full function back. She is truly gifted and I am so grateful. Her office was really nice, and the staff were lovely. All of the appointments were on time, and did not take a long time. I highly recommend Dr. Shih!
"Exactly what I was hoping for!"
I recently had a breast augmentation with Dr. Shih, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From the very first consultation, Dr. Shih's expertise and attention to detail put me at ease.
Dr. Shih and her assistant, Andrea, took the time to understand my goals and provided excellent guidance throughout the process. The surgery went smoothly, and the results are just fantastic—exactly what I was hoping for! Both Dr. Shih and Andrea were incredibly supportive and responsive at every step. They made the entire experience feel personal and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Shih for anyone considering this procedure!
"She changed my life!"
I am so grateful for Dr. Shih - she changed my life! Throughout the whole process from my first consultation, to the surgery, and the follow up care after the surgery, she was so warm, relaxed and reassuring.
I had researched several surgeons in the area, met with four and decided that Dr. Shih was the right fit for me. I could tell during our first meeting that I was in good hands. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answered all of my questions, explained my options and what I could expect. It was so refreshing, especially after my previous experiences with some of the other doctors in the area.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the most common questions we hear about Labiaplasty in Burlington
What is labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty (labia reduction) is a surgical procedure that reshapes and reduces the labia minora or majora to relieve discomfort, improve symmetry, and create a more proportionate appearance.
Who is a good candidate for labiaplasty?
Good candidates are adults experiencing physical symptoms (chafing, pain during exercise or intercourse), hygiene issues, or cosmetic concerns about labial size/shape; a confidential consultation determines if surgery is appropriate.
What surgical techniques are used for labiaplasty?
Common techniques include the trim (edge) method, wedge resection, and composite approaches—your surgeon will recommend the technique that best preserves contour and sensation while achieving your goals.
What type of anaesthesia is used and how long does the procedure take?
Labiaplasty is usually performed under local anaesthetic with sedation or under general anaesthesia depending on preference and complexity; procedures typically last 60–90 minutes.
Will labiaplasty affect sexual sensation?
The goal is to preserve sensation; experienced surgeons use tissue-sparing techniques and careful planning to minimize sensory changes. Discuss risks and expectations with your surgeon during consultation.
What is the recovery timeline after labiaplasty?
Expect swelling and soreness for 1–2 weeks, limited activity for about 1–2 weeks, and a gradual return to full activity and intimacy over 4–6 weeks—individual recovery varies and your surgeon will provide a personalized plan.
Are there risks or complications?
As with any surgery, risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, asymmetry, or wound-healing issues. Choosing a board-supervised surgeon and following post-op care reduces complication risk.
How noticeable will the scars be?
Incision placement and fine suturing aim to create low-profile, well-hidden scars. Scars fade over months, and your surgeon will discuss scar-minimizing strategies and realistic expectations.
Is labiaplasty covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your insurer and whether the procedure is deemed medically necessary (e.g., functional pain). Cosmetic-only labiaplasty is usually out-of-pocket—bring your questions and documentation to consultation for insurer guidance.
How do I prepare for a labiaplasty consultation?
Bring a list of medications, medical history, and your goals or concerns. Expect a private exam, discussion of techniques, anesthesia options, recovery timeline, and a personalized recommendation and cost estimate.
