While clitoral hood reduction may sound intimidating, the tissues removed are actually quite far away from the clitoris itself.
Do I Need a Clitoral Hood Reduction With a Labiaplasty?
Some surgeons will only perform a labiaplasty. In those cases, the labia are reduced, but the upper part of the vulva, namely, the clitoral hood, tissues are too puffy, full, and large. Some women complain about this imbalance, and the prominence in that area can be distressing. For that reason and others, I always recommend that the clitoral hood be evaluated for reduction.
