Abstract in brief

Cosmetic labiaplasty is a type of female genital cosmetic surgery aimed at changing the appearance of the external genitalia without medical reasons, and its popularity has increased among teenagers.
The procedure is controversial because it involves permanently altering a sensitive, psychologically important body part of minors who may not be capable of giving informed consent, and pubertal development can affect surgical results.
Experts recommend delaying labiaplasty until adulthood, emphasizing education about normal genital diversity, mental health assessment, and informed decision-making to prevent unnecessary or poorly understood procedures.]
