Aims: To investigate the affects of labiaplasty and/or vaginoplasty on sexual function and satisfaction, as well as the potential to improve body image and genital self-image. Methods: A total of 131 heterosexual sexually active women receiving either a vaginoplasty and/or labioplasty were included in the study population. Patients were subsequently divided into three groups: labioplasty (LP) (n=44), vaginoplasty (VP) (n=44), and labioplasty-vaginoplasty (LVP) (n=43) for statistical evaluation. All participants were administered preoperatively and postoperatively validated questionnaires including Body Image Scale (BIS); Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire-Female (SQOL-F), Female Sexual Distress Scale (FSDS), Female Genital Self-Image Scale (FGSIS), and Quality of Sexual Experience Scale (QSES). Results: The median follow-up was 18 months after the female genital cosmetic procedure (FGCP). FGSIS, BIS, SQOL-F, QSES, and FSDS postoperative questionnaires total scores improved significantly in the LP, VP, and LVP groups. FSFI postoperative total scores improved among all groups, but no statistically significant difference was detected in the LP group, unlike the VP and LVP groups. No intraoperative complications occurred. Postoperative complications were detected in 2 (4.5%) women in the LP group and 1 (2.3%) woman in the LVP group. These complications were wound dehiscence (
