I think I have hyperthophic and keloid scarring on my labia minora. Scars itch and and feel uncomfortable. They are almost ten years old but it feel like they keep living still. What can be done? My situation feels so miserable. I would like to know also about treatment associated risks.
Answer: Treatment for scarring Thank you for your questionThere are several mechanisms to fix scarring but cannot tell you what can work without photos.

Answer: Residual discomfort after labiaplasty Usually, the removal of the scars with reconstruction using healthy tissue eliminates or markedly improves the discomfort. I can be more specific if you would include photos. The reconstruction is much more difficult than a primary labiaplasty and should be done by a plastic surgeon with extensive experience in labia reconstruction. I published the first and most extensive paper on labia reconstruction in the prestigious journal "Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery" about ten years ago. I also contributed significantly to the chapter "Revision Labiaplasty" in the plastic surgery textbook " The Art of Aesthetic Surgery: Principles and Practice" edited by Nahai . Approximately 40% of the surgeries I perform are revisions of other surgeons’ labiaplasties. You need various reconstructive techniques to give you a good appearance.

Answer: Post labioplasty scars Condition like yours is, fortunately, not very frequent; scars in that area heal well and without functional consequences. Very likely that tradional management, like topical injection of corticosteroid should be the first step. In person consultation with a board certified plastic or gyn. surgeon, familiar with this problem, is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Postop keloid treatment It's hard for us to give an idea without a picture, but if it's a mild keloid, some creams or steroids might work. If there is an excess keloid, it must be surgically removed.
