  According to Dr. Colin Moore, a leading cosmetic surgeon in Australia, more and more young women are embracing vaginal rejuvenation surgery, also known as labiaplasty.

  Moore’s expertise in performing labiaplasty has been honed for more than 30 years and she couldn’t help but notice the change in the type of women opting for the procedure to reduce the inner vaginal lips. There has been, as Moore said, a dramatic change in the trend in the past decade.

  "Most of the younger women we used to see were what I call the professionals - the pole dancers, the strippers, whose parts have to be in good shape because it's part of their act," Dr Moore said at the national cosmetic medicine conference in Melbourne.

  Besides them, the other group of women who opt for labiaplasty were housewives in their 30s or 40s who felt they needed the procedure. But today, the typical patient of a labiaplasty is a successful, unmarried young woman in her 20w or early 30s who simply didn’t like what she had.

  Experts concluded that young girls today are concerned that their partners in sex may be put off by the appearance of their vulvas. Others just plain don’t like the way they look so they come along for the surgery.

  Labiaplasty is 90-minute operation which costs $10,000. It involves trimming the protruding labia minora, or inner lips, back to the same level as the outer lips without interfering with the erotic nerve endings in the area.

  US figures show genital operations increased by 30 percent between 2005 and 2006. This, many also attributed, to the growth in Brazilian waxing to remove all pubic hair.
