Okay it's been almost 2 months and it seems to be healed. I'm not pleased at all I look open and unnatural. I am so embarrassed and ashamed of my new look, sex won't be the same. :( updated pics as well.

I am scheduled in Florida for next week. May I ask what doctor you saw?

Dr. Pham

So...did anyone else look up Dr. Red Alinsod?? Because I did and what I saw was SCARY! Apparently he either IS or WAS being sued for carving his name into a womans uterus. Google him, its the 1st thing that pops up. On another note, I hope things work out for you, keep us updated!

I had labiaplasty surgery 2 weeks ago, and mine looks like your did. HORRIBLE ITCHING, can't sleep it itches so badly. He left clitoral hood alone, and he told me beforehand that he wouldn't touch it, and why, so I am ok with that. My inner labia are gone, and I am ok with that too, but the sutures are VERY bumpy, and he seems to have left rim-like labia around my vaginal opening. Looks very inconsistent with the lack of labia between the clitoris and vagina. Not happy. Wondering if the rim-like skin is swelling, or do I also need a rivision.. Not scared, as I don't have a husband, or anyone for that matter, and it IS better than horribly excessive labia, BUT! I too wanted to look pretty, not have extra skin sticking to my inner thighs, not have urine sraying out of the path of least resistance, not having labia pinched by the elastic in my underwear...etc... Have you looked into the Care credit? After this much time, has it healed OK? Curious, as I seem to be in the same position. Good luck! It took me 50 years to brave the humiliation of enduring this procedure, and it SUCKS to have to have "it" scrutinized and re-worked. I'm so glad for these forums!

If you don't mind me asking, who did your procedure?

Go look at mine you'll feel a lot better lol. I was butchered

Wow, I feel bad for you! Why did you do it..... just for the look. Trust me, most guys are attracted to a vagina whatever the look. Some guys love the protruding lips. You never should of done this without running it by your husband. What are his thoughts.

LIZDARBY76
Why would a surgeon trim the inner labia and sew them to the outer? has anyone seen this method? What result does it give? I feel like prying them apart now that they aren't fused yet to my outer labia completely yet. So I can have inner labia. Please someone help me I will fly anywhere I need this fixed asap before I heal this way!

Dr Marc Schneider in Fort Myers Florida is a phenomenal board cert plastic surgeon that I know and have had breast augmentation done by. He's amazing!!! I interned w him for a brief time and was so impressed by his skills that I referred my mother to him. 239-277-9999 - 12751 S. Cleveland Ave suite 102 Fort Myers, Florida I wish you the best of Luck!!

What's your main concern, is it the appearance? I'm in CA and my doctor said she would trim the inner labia completely so there would be no need to sew it to the outer labia. I've only met with this one doctor before (I'm considering getting the procedure done), but from what she said, and from the research I've done, sewing the inner to the outer does not make any sense. Also, unless you got entire vaginal rejuvination there is no need to to anywhere near the clitoris or the hood... So that doesn't make sense if you only got labiaplasty. Bottom line is that you need to go see a DIFFERENT labiaplasty specialist in your area so you can ask them questions or concerns you have, and get a second opinion from another specialist. Please do this ASAP so you have peace of mind and all the right answers. Keep me posted!

The concern is cosmetic/ health reasons. I have never had a yeast infection in my life and now I have. I have a feeling since its sort of open there are no inner labia to protect the opening that I am more prone to infection. I have no idea why he would so this type of procedure. I told him I wanted to look pretty and was embarrassed my wholelife he told me not to worry it would be great and no one would notice. Ugh..3 1/2 weeks later it is painful to the touch and itchy. The surgeons I have called say they wouldn't look at me until 6 months after:/

I should mention that different doctors might do this procedure differently (which is why I've never heard of the method you mentioned), so try to stay calm and don't freak out to much. I don't think you necessarily need to wait for it to heal before you see a different doctor. You just need to research a good labiaplasty surgeon (who gets good reviews) in your area and make an appointment to discuss your concerns with them. But try not to freak out too much, As long as there's no loss of sensation and it's just a cosmetic concern.

http://www.realself.com/review/new-jersey-labiaplasty-nitemare also take a look at this case and I think hers was worse looking after surgery than yours and hers turned out in my opinion really really well.. but again get another opinion

November 18, 2012
Yes hers looks great after 3 revisions...eek!
March 30, 2016
Did you go ahead with revision? Are you based in the UK? I would love to find a surgery buddy interested in travelling to the US for surgery as soon as poss. There are great surgeons there. In my opinion much better than UK.
November 17, 2012
Do you have money to have a revision? The best surgeon in the world is in Laguna Beach, Ca. He is the best. Can you afford to fix it?
November 18, 2012
I'm sure I don't have the amount of money needed to have a revision done by a reputable plastic surgeon, as I have heard it is close to 7 grand:/
November 19, 2012
yes, it is around 7,000 but if you can get CARE credit, then you can get this fixe. Look up Dr. Red Alinsod. he is the BEST. He is my doctor and I am telling you he is the most renowned and respected doctor in the entire world for this surgery. FInd out if you can get care credit. Seriously. Call their office now! Hugs!!!
April 2, 2013
Dr Red Alindod was sued for carving name into womans uterus..the comment sbove was correct...you can google it to read more...scarry! Last place i would go..

Labiaplasty was performed on 10/31, I went in today to see if everything was okay and needed some reassurance. I was scheduled to have my sutures removed on Wednesday but he went ahead and took them out today. I'm still in pain, although I don't think it looks swollen. Could this be fixed soon that it is so new, I don't want it to heal the way I think it is. I'd rather get it done now that it is still fresh and deal with the pain and prolonged healing if it means that it will look better. Also, I failed to mention the reason I did this is because I have always been embarrassed of my labia, my husband has never seen me in the light when we have sex. He is in the military overseas and is coming back in one month and wanted to surprise him by letting him see me and think that his wife is attractive and sexy. I so regret it
