Clitoral Hood Reduction in Houston, TX

What Is a Clitoral Hood Reduction?

Many women are curious about this procedure, which is used to improve comfort in clothing and sensual enjoyment by removing excess skin tissue around the clitoris. Some women have a long clitoral hood which interferes with the normal form and function of their clitoris. With a clitoral hood reduction, your cosmetic surgeon will remove just the excess skin of the clitoral hood to improve comfort, appearance, and sensation.
