Clitoral Hoodectomy (Hood Reduction)

Book Now

Testosterone, genetics, and oestrogen can considerably change the way the entire clitoral areas appear. Some of the significant changes include excess skin on both sides of the clitoris, making it look larger or asymmetrical. In such cases, a surgical procedure known as Clitoral Hoodectomy or clitoral hood reduction, is required to remove excess skin and tissue.

The goal of the procedure is to improve the cosmetic appearance of the clitoris by removing extra folds of skin. During the procedure, the nerves of the clitoris are not affected, nor is the clitoris mutilated in any way.

Causes of a hooded clitoris

  • Genetics
  • Aging
  • Hormonal changes
  • Or Congenital problems among others

Candidate for Clitoral Hoodectomy

For one to be considered a good candidate for a clitoral Hoodectomy, she must fit a certain criterion. This includes:

  • Having an asymmetrical clitoris
  • Having realistic expectations
  • Decreased stimulation on the clitoris
  • Excess skin on the clitoris
  • Being in overall good physical and mental health
  • Not having any genital conditions

What to Expect After Clitoral Hoodectomy Procedure

Clitoral hood reduction is done under local anesthesia and can last for up to two hours depending on the amount of skin to be excised. After the procedure, you can expect:

  • Immediately after the procedure, the patient will have some discomfort, some degree of redness, and swelling on the area. This will persist for 5-7 days after which it will begin to subsidize.
  • Although clitoral hood reduction is a surgical procedure, you don’t need to stay overnight. You can go home immediately after the surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions about Clitoral Hoodectomy

How many clitoral hood reduction sessions are needed?

Only one session is required. On the other hand, most women combine clitoral hood reduction with labiaplasty for optimal results.

When will the results be visible?

The results can be visible almost immediately, but the possible discomfort and swelling might obscure the real results. It can take up to 10 days to see some results. The final results are only visible after the area has completely heals. Results vary from patient to patient.

What is the cost of Clitoral Hoodectomy?

The cost of a clitoral hood reduction in Dubai is determined after a consultation with our board-certified aesthetic gynaecologist, which will depend on the amount of excess skin to be excised, and if you’ll be combining the procedure with another, like labiaplasty.
