I doubt I will be able to go running or anything similar until the full six weeks are up. So make sure to discuss this with your surgeon in advance and have a buffer period in case it does take longer for you than it does for others. My friend has been wondering how long after surgery it would take for her to heal.
I underwent labiaplasty early last year. For me, recovery was actually not as bad as I thought it would be. I had some pain for the first week, but nothing that was unmanageable.
After a few weeks everything subsided and I could see the final result. I feel more confident in my bathing suit and my husband says he can feel the difference during intercourse. Hi Kel, procedure time can vary a bit depending on the specifics but most labiaplasty procedures take hours to be performed.
We hop that helps! This will be my third week. And my Dr did something that my labia stitches got disconnected now I have to be on medication for two weeks and sitting on a hot tub with salt until in not swollen anymore to get stitches again no worries.. Ever since I was in my early twenties I wanted to get a labiaplasty done, but after having my three children I now decided that I want to take the next step.
I am going to start looking for a reputable plastic surgeon, but I first wanted to know how the process works. I am on day 6 of recovery and it has been a way easier recovery than I expected, it has been amazing and I am so happy I went thru with the procedure. The procedure took about minutes, I just did local freezing and I walked without pain afterwards and drove myself home.
Very minor swelling and pain, I take it slow while walking or in the process of getting up and sitting down but it is more slight discomfort than any form of pain. I try to lay in bed without pants as often as I can with my legs slightly spread open so the wounds get a lot of oxygen.
So excited to see my results in the next few weeks! I had this surgery done in Feb Since about Jan , my scars have been extremely itchy and even painful. From the scratching, my scars are becoming more prominent.
What is happening? You may want to discuss this with you gynecologist. And sooner rather than later to minimize the scratching, that can definitely result in damage or making any scars more visible.
So we would recommend that you start there. However, your physician should be able to pinpoint if there is any connection after performing an exam. After considering this procedure for 15 years I am now 11 days post surgery which I had privately in the U.
I had the procedure done under a local anaesthetic. Procedure itself took just over 2 hours. The first 4 days after my surgery were pretty painful to be honest. I was VERY swollen unable to walk properly as I had to keep my legs so far apart and unable to sit down or wear anything on my bottom half. I found putting towels down on my bed and just resting was the only way to improve.
I showered as normal to keep the area clean especially after going to the loo. Pouring some warm water on the area whilst weeing also helped. I was checked yesterday. No signs of infection, no bleeding and everything is showing signs of healing nicely. Using an ice compress has really helped! My advise is book time off work, have someone there to look after you you will absolutely need it! Have some cushions ready for under your legs at bedtime and expect the first few days to be very unpleasant.
Hope this helps anyone considering the treatment! Currently on my 5th day since I had the procedure done, I found your tips relatable and helpful! My body muscles are aching and in pain because of this, my neck especially.
Just been wearing lose fitting pants and letting the area breathe. The cleansing bottle they gave me has helped the burning while peeing as well as helping rinse the area. Day 4 I was able to lightly lather and touch the area without shooting burning pain with soap in the shower, touch gently.
It got a little better after my mom gave me a hot pink book for teens about changing bodies full of cartoony illustrations of different vagina types and their various parts, but I was still ashamed of my pussy. I even refused oral, afraid the person would see my uneven labia minora and be disgusted.
No thank you, I thought, believing I was sparing myself some humiliation. I, and Sarah, are not alone in being embarrassed by our less than perfect vaginas. In , the American College of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons recorded 2, vaginal rejuvenation surgeries, and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons estimates 5, procedures are performed annually.
Meanwhile in Britain, women getting labiaplasty increased fivefold in , according to the BBC. There are thousands of women out there who look at their vaginas and want to cut them up, apparently. Some women report that having a labiaplasty has improved their quality of life. However, complications can occur including nerve damage and over-resection. The latter can result in chronic dryness and scarring near the vaginal opening, leading to painful sex.
How painful is labiaplasty recovery? Labiaplasty is not a particularly painful procedure, and patients are encouraged to be up and about straight away.
