What may be proposed
Clitoral hood reduction removes selected folds around the clitoral hood. It may be discussed separately or with labiaplasty, but the goal and incision plan should be explicit.
Function-first planning
The clitoris has dense nerve supply. Conservative assessment, surgeon experience and clear boundaries are important because altered sensation, pain and scarring are possible.
2026 pricing factors
Whether the procedure is standalone or combined, tissue complexity, anaesthesia, facility, tests and aftercare influence cost.
Questions before consent
Ask exactly which structure will be treated, why it is recommended, where scars sit, how sensation is protected and what the surgeon’s complication experience is.
Frequently asked questions
Is the clitoris removed or reduced?
The term usually refers to surrounding hood tissue, not removal of the clitoris. Ask for precise anatomical explanation.
Does it guarantee more sensation?
No. Sensation improvement cannot be guaranteed and altered sensation is a risk.
Must it be combined with labiaplasty?
No. Any combination should have a separate indication and consent.
