Labiaplasty and Penile Augmentation: Trends and Risks | Gemma Sharp | The Proof Clips EP

Explore the rising trend of labiaplasty, a surgical procedure that reduces the size of the labia minora. Gemma Sharp discusses the potential influences behind this increase, such as pornography, fashion trends, and societal discomfort with open discussions about genitalia. Gemma also shares her research on how educating teenage girls about the natural diversity of vulvas can positively impact their body image and self-esteem.
The clip covers important topics like the biological functions of the labia minora, the need for more long-term research on the effects of labiaplasty, the importance of using accurate anatomical terms when discussing genitals, and how open communication about private parts can help protect children.
