It doesnt make sense to me as trim takes off extra skin that's hanging, and its vertical. So how come there are people with separated top edge especially with this method?
Answer: Doctor & Patient Factors It’s really two things - Doctor factors and patient factors. Doctor factors might include burning off the edge with laser or hot cautery causing healing problems, not suturing the area sufficiently, or excess bleeding. Bleeding could be the beginning of a patient factor or could be a patient and Doctor factor if bleeding is not controlled at the time of surgery. Activity that is started too early could cause separation from too much movement or returning to work too quickly could also be a problem leading to healing issues after labiaplasty. I recommend the patients have about 72 hours bed rest after the labiaplasty with a Reduction, and this is a perfect time for your body to heal decrease as a chance for bleeding and gives excellent results.

Answer: Skin separation after trim labiaplasty Thank you for your questionThere are two pair of inner labia: a lower pair that inserts into the clitoris and an upper pair, called prepuce, that forms the hood and can insert into and even overwhelm the lower pair. The trim method is designed to reduce the lower pair. If the prepuce is not addressed or reduced properly, it can separate from the trim of the lower pair. In addition, the lower pair labia are like lamina: an inner skin surface, outer skin surface , and a central elastic tissue containing nerves and vessels. With the trim method, all layers are cut so that the remaining edges are free and need to be sutures together creating a new edge. If the sutures break down or come out, these layers can separate.

Answer: What causes skin separation after labiaplasty? Scars separate if there is too much tension on them. This can happen if the stitches are too tight, or if fluid builds up under a scar or if unexpected force is applied to a scar during the healing phase. Cigarette smoking also increase the risk for scar separations. It's unclear what you mean by a separated top edge.

Answer: What causes skin separation after a labiaplasty using the trim method? Thank you for sharing your question. Many factors go into the healing process including suture technique, suture redundancy, patient compliance during recovery, etc. In most cases of a trim, any separation that may develop is likely small and can heal well on its own.

Answer: Many different factors Wound dehiscence can be caused by too much tension, not enough wound factors to heal (ie low protein or hemoglobin), friction, too much activity after surgery, etc. Please visit with a board-certified plastic surgeon for your surgery. Good luck!
