Labial Puffing in Chicago
Significant weight loss can cause volume loss in the labia majora, leaving tissue that looks and feels deflated. The change is real, not imagined. Dr. Sue Kafali is a board-certified OB/GYN who restores labial volume using both filler and fat transfer, with results tailored to each patient's anatomy and goals.

Labial volume loss is real, common, and treatable.
The labia majora contain a natural fat pad that gives them their fullness and shape. When that fat diminishes, the tissue can look deflated, wrinkled, or flattened. It can change how clothing fits, how things feel during intimacy, and how patients feel about their own bodies.
Weight loss medications are one of the most common causes right now. These medications do not target where fat is lost. For many women, the labia majora lose volume along with everywhere else. The result can be noticeable and frustrating, especially after working so hard to reach a healthier weight.
But medication-related weight loss is not the only cause. Aging naturally reduces fat volume in the vulvar area. Childbirth and hormonal changes during menopause accelerate the process. Some women have always had less volume in the labia majora and have been self-conscious about it for years.
Whatever the cause, labial puffing is a straightforward procedure that restores what has been lost. Dr. Kafali offers two approaches, filler and fat transfer, so the treatment can be matched to each patient's body and goals. Individual results may vary.
Filler vs. Fat Transfer
Dr. Kafali offers both methods for labial puffing. The right choice depends on anatomy, the degree of volume loss, and whether you prefer a quick treatment or longer-lasting results.
Dermal Filler
Immediate volume with no downtime
Hyaluronic Acid Filler
- Hyaluronic acid filler is injected into the labia majora to restore fullness and smooth deflated tissue
- Topical numbing is applied before treatment for comfort
- Results are visible immediately and typically last 12 to 18 months
- Touch-ups can maintain results over time
Best for patients who want a quick, no-downtime treatment with mild to moderate volume loss. Many patients choose filler first to see how they like the results before considering fat transfer.
Fat Transfer
Your own fat for natural, lasting volume
Fat Grafting to Labia Majora
- Fat is harvested through mini-liposuction from a donor area (typically the abdomen or inner thighs), then purified and injected into the labia majora
- Results look and feel completely natural because the volume comes from your own tissue
- Most patients retain 60 to 80 percent of the transferred volume long-term
- Recovery is typically 5 to 7 days with mild swelling and tenderness
Best for patients with more significant volume loss or those who want a longer-lasting result without repeat treatments. Also a good option for patients who have a donor site they would like to slim at the same time. Individual results may vary.
Pricing varies by treatment method and is discussed during your consultation. Financing available through CareCredit and Cherry for qualified applicants.

From Consultation to Results
Consultation
Schedule a virtual ($150) or in-person ($250) consultation. Dr. Kafali will assess your anatomy, discuss the degree of volume loss, and recommend filler or fat transfer based on your goals. The consultation fee applies toward treatment.
Treatment
Filler takes about 30 minutes with topical numbing. Fat transfer is an outpatient procedure that includes mini-liposuction and injection. Both are performed in our private Chicago office by Dr. Kafali.
