I had a labiaplasty and CHR in September. On the whole, I’m happy with the results but I can’t help feeling as though my clitoral hood still looks prominent / top heavy. This is very much down to the ideal I had in my head, rather than the surgeon. I think they did a fantastic job but I wonder whether it’s worth going ahead with a CHR revision. I have discussed the prospect of this with them and have agreed to go back to the clinic in a few months having thought about it further. Opinions?

Answer: Yes, its worth it if you want better results You are definitely top-heavy. I would recommend returning to your surgeon for further reduction. It is not unusual to return for additional work in order obtain that optimal result. I see this with my own patients who start off with very large labia and hood. You are better off being in this situation than in one where too much was removed and you are left with few to no options.

Answer: Clitoral hood revision Thank you for your question Whatever makes you happy is the ultimate answer to your question. From your photo there is still a considerable amount of redundant (excess) tissue and the appearance can be much less prominent both with prepuce (clitoral hood and surrounding area) and labia. Research a surgeon well experienced in prepuce reduction

Answer: Clitoral hood reduction Your clitoral hood is long and protuberant, but most clitoral hood reductions do not deal with the thick tissue and protuberant clitoris. Your hood can be decreased somewhat by reducing the sides. However, I pioneered a clitoropexy with clitoral hood reduction in which the clitoris is pushed closer to the pubic bone and the width, thickness, length, and protuberance of the clitoral hood can be decreased. With this procedure, I lift up the clitoral hood skin, move the clitoris closer to the pubic bone, thin the tissues under the clitoral hood skin, and then remove a large amount of excess skin. This results in a dramatic decrease in the length, thickness, and protuberance of the clitoral hood, so that the hood is now within the labia majora when the woman stands. I have performed this procedure over 400 times with outstanding results. I have not published this technique, so no one does it like me.

Answer: Clitoral hood revison I think it would be worth having a clitoral hood revision. Remember it is not unusual after a labiaplasty to consider additional procedures to your vulva. If the appearance bothers you then have the clitoral hood addressed. You should as you eluded to, wait at least 6 months before considering the procedure to allow for complete healing.

Answer: Is it worth having a CHR revision? (Photo) Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. I do think you would benefit from a revision CHR to substantially reduce the tissue in order to achieve a smaller, more proportional result comparable to your labia minora. Hope this helps.
