Sensation issues after labiaplasty and CHR

Question

I had my labiaplasty/ chr 6 months ago. My surgeon hasn’t been helpful since post surgery. I can still orgasm but I never get the urge to and touching myself doesn’t feel as nice. The tip of my clot feels numb but if i pull my hood back I can feel it more. She removed my frenlum which makes me sad because I know how important that is. Will my sensation ever improve or go back to how it was. Is there anything I can do to help it return.

Caner Kacmaz, MD · Answer

Usually, it takes 3 months for swelling to resolve, scar tissue to settle, and sensation to return after the labiaplasty surgery. 
Experiencing loss of sensation or numbness is pretty common and often temporary.

It can take up to a year for full sensation to return. Please give it a bit more time as it’s only been 6 months.

Hello,
 
Thank you for the question.

I'm sorry to hear that you have sensation issues following your labiaplasty and CHR procedure. 
 
You are still in the early stages of wound healing, and there may be some improvement in your sensation during intercourse over time.

I would also wait at least a full year from your original surgery prior to undergoing revision surgery because the wound healing takes up to 1 year to be completed.
 
I would definitely discuss your questions and concerns with your Plastic Surgeon or a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in Labiaplasty procedures.
 
I hope this helps.
Best regards, Dr. Karanetz

Your complaints are unusual and can be from various causes. I suggest you email photos to evaluate with your entire genital area and also pulling up your hood to see your clitoris.

Hello, I recommend you O-shot with PRP treatment to increase your sexual desire again and make your feelings higher. It revitalizes the diminished nerve tissues and will provide a better recovery by helping to increase the sensation and blood supply of the area with new capillaries.I wish you healthy days
