Aim: Although an increasing number of women in developed societies prefer genital plastic surgeries, the most common procedure is considered to be labiaplasty. The aim of this study is to reveal the social and clinical factors that cause the decision to operate in women undergoing labiaplasty.
Materials and Methods: In our study, 189 patients who had labia minora reduction surgery in our hospital between April 2018 - 2023 were evaluated retrospectively. The social and clinical factors that caused all patients included in the study to request surgery from the hospital database from their patient files were evaluated retrospectively.
Results: Patients participating in the study; Patients who underwent surgery for aesthetic reasons, aesthetic + functional reasons and psychological reasons were evaluated in 3 separate groups, and no significant difference was found in the average age between the groups (p=0.914). In our study, among the patients without a history of coitus, 16 (88.9%) patients were operated for individual reasons and 2 (11.1%) patients were operated for environmental reasons. The rate of operations performed for individual reasons in patients without a history of coitus was found to be significantly higher than the rate of operations performed for environmental reasons (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Women who undergo surgical intervention do not always do so for personal reasons. Therefore, it is necessary to make a comprehensive evaluation before considering labiaplasty surgery. A clear understanding of labiaplasty patients' motivations and expectations will facilitate better patient decision-making and increase the patient's likelihood of satisfaction with the result.

Amaç: Gelişmiş toplumlarda giderek artan sayıda kadın, genital estetik ameliyatları tercih etmekle birlikte en yaygın olan prosedür labioplasti olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı labioplasti operasyonu geçiren kadınlarda operasyon kararına neden olan sosyal ve klinik faktörleri ortaya koymaktır.
Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmamızda Nisan 2018 - 2023 döneminde hastanemizde labia minör küçültme ameliyatı olan 189 hasta retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Araştırmaya dahil edilen tüm hastaların hasta dosyalarından hastane veritabanından ameliyatı talep etmelerine neden olan sosyal ve klinik faktörler retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan hastalar; estetik nedenler, estetik + işlevsel nedenler ve psikolojik nedenlerle ameliyat olan hastalar olarak 3 ayrı grupta değerlendirilmiş olup, gruplar arasında yaş ortalaması olarak anlamlı fark saptanmamıştır (p=0.914). Çalışmamızda koitus öyküsü olmayan hastalardan 16 (%88.9) hasta bireysel nedenler, 2 (%11.1) hasta çevresel nedenlerden dolayı opere olmuştur. Koitus öyküsü olmayan hastalarda bireysel nedenlerle yapılan operasyon oranı, çevresel nedenlerle yapılan operasyon oranına göre anlamlı yüksek saptanmıştır (p<0.001)
Sonuç: Cerrahi müdahale geçiren kadınlar bunu her zaman kişisel nedenlerden dolayı yapmamaktadır. Bu nedenle labioplasti operasyonunu düşünmeden önce kapsamlı bir değerlendirme yapmak gerekir. Labioplasti hastalarının motivasyonlarının ve beklentilerinin net olarak anlaşılması, hastanın daha iyi karar vermesini kolaylaştıracak ve hastanın sonuçtan memnuniyet olasılığını arttıracaktır.
