How common are keloids and hypertrophic scarring during Labiaplasty post-op recovery?

Labiaplasty will not lead any keloid or hypertrophic scar. this area is not prone to these scar problems. The skin is not a keratinized, has good blood supply and this make the healing better than other parts of the body. the scar of the surgery will be almost invisible at 1 years.

Hello -
I am asked this question often, specially from patients who have a history of keloids post surgery or trauma. The risk is minimal to zero with properly performed lapiaplasty since there isn't any tension on the incision lines. I haven't seen any keloid formation even in patients with a strong history of keloids.
Best of luck,

After hundreds of labiaplasty cases I have yet to see a keloid or hypertrophic scar in the labia or clitoral hood excisions. The labia and the lips of the mouth share a huge amount of anatomy, even on a cellular level. The inside of the mouth is very very resistant to scarring and instead develops almost a shiny layer after trauma. If you bite your cheek or burn the roof of your mouth it generally is heals without anything visible from the injury. The same is true for the labia minora.
