摘要

With advances in the standards of living and public perceptions, female genital cosmetic surgery is becoming a new hot topic in the field of plastic surgery, gaining considerable interest recently among beauty seekers and professionals alike. However, the needs of beauty pursuers seem to be exuberant but vague; on the other hand, practitioners who have received strict professional training are still desperately needed. Additionally, interest-driven marketing and promotion render the field prone to chaos, resulting in widespread attention and concerns regarding the scientificity, safety, effectiveness, and necessity of the performance of multiple treatment procedures. Extensive survey of the relevant literature was performed, and several beauty seekers as well as surgeons with working experience of pertinent techniques were consulted, in order to examine the current status and future developments of this field.
