I appreciate your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients. Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon
You have bruising with minimal swelling. This suggests that you do not have a hematoma. You should heal just fine and your bruises should resolve in a few weeks.
Thank you for your question and photos. It is common to have bruising after this surgery. Ice packs and NSAIDs will help with the healing process and to treat discomfort from the bruising.
This is common and usually of no concern. However, I would just make sure your surgeon is aware as they may want to examine to be on the safe side.You should heal just fine.
Congrats on the surgery the results look good.... but then again it is only your opinion that matters at this point. Your healing is normal. Relax and enjoy the new you.
Thank you for your question and pictures. Please do not be alarmed bruising is completely normal and you seem to be healing well, your procedure was still very early days. Please ensure you return to your surgeon for regular follow ups.Best Wishes
Congratulations on your Labiaplasty. It's common course for bruising to occur a few days after any surgery. Thanks for the photos, although they aren't very clear, but from what I can see you seem to be healing appropriately. Be sure to keep your follow-up appointment with your surgeon. Best of luck,
Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Because of the thin tissues of the area it is common to have bruising develop in the first few days after your procedure. Based on your picture alone you appear to be healing well. Allow yourself at least 6-8 weeks of recovery time to see your long-term results. Best wishes.
Thank you for your question. Bruising can occur after labiaplasty with the amount dependent in part based on the time since surgery. I would recommend contacting the surgeon who performed the original surgery to evaluate your current condition. Best of luck. Jeffrey S. Palmer, MD, FACS, FAAP (Cosmetic Urologist -- Cleveland, Ohio)
I tell all my patients to expect some bruising that may migrate over the first week or two. The area is very vascular but also the tissue is loose in the area allowing old blood to shift and spread out. Your picture looks typical of many patients and should resolve in a timely manner. Dr. ODell
Thank you for your question. It seems like your healing quite nicely. Keep doing what you are doing and you will be fully healed in no time. Congratulations.
Hi, it appears to me by your picture that you would be an excellent candidate for labia linear contouring type Labiaplasty, i.e. Also called trimming. The wedge technique is an excellent technique if you just want to debulk the tissue or have the labia reduced in bulk so they don't hang as much....
Asymmetry is to be expected after a labiaplasty procedure. It looks like you are healing just fine. Be sure to keep your surgeon updated with your recovery process.
