Brooke Shields Reveals Surgeon Performed Unconsented Procedure During Labia Surgery

In her new memoir, Shields shares her experience of undergoing an additional vaginal rejuvenation procedure she did not consent to, describing it as a profound violation.

Brooke Shields, 59, disclosed in her upcoming memoir that a surgeon performed a vaginal rejuvenation procedure without her consent during a labia reduction surgery in her 40s.
The actress had initially consented to the labia reduction to address discomfort, including bleeding and chafing, which she had experienced since high school.
The male surgeon informed Shields during a post-operative checkup that he had added the vaginal rejuvenation as a 'bonus,' leaving her feeling violated and outraged.
Shields chose not to pursue legal action but decided to share her story to raise awareness about consent and the challenges women face in healthcare settings.
Her memoir, 'Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Aging as a Woman,' which explores issues of aging and women's health, will be released on January 14, 2025.
