This has no swelling, and it is healed. I had this done 10 years ago in 2006. I was 15 and my gyno offered it. It has hard lumps, holes, clumps, just miserable to deal with. In between the "clumps" there's not much skin. It's like a zig zag pattern. It's hard to clean, and I'm pretty desperate for help. Is there anyway this can be revised? I haven't been able to find any pictures as severe as mine. The scarring and holes look like I've been butchered.
Answer: Botched labiaplasty As the inventor and innovator of the wedge technique in 1994, I reconstruct many women who have had labia reductions by other surgeons, both wedge and trimming techniques. The reconstruction is 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 two years ago. You may need various reconstructive techniques to give you a good appearance. I can excise most of your scalloped edges and irregularities with one or multiple wedge excisions and make you look very good. You only get one good chance to reconstruct you, so be patient and ask a lot of questions.

Answer: Labiaplasty revision I am sorry to hear about your experience. You could absolutely undergo a revision with the remaining excess labia. Your exam is essentially very similar to a patient who has not yet undergone labiaplasty, in that there is a significant amount of excess labia present. There may be some challenge to evening out some areas of the tissue. If you view our before and after pictures and labiaplasty procedure, you will see you would benefit from labiaplasty with clitoral hood and posterior fourchette reduction. We have patients who travel from out of state for surgery and have their initial consult remotely. Best of luck.

Answer: Irregular labia after labiaplasty You have at least two issues here as far as I can see: suture effect and skin texture. I have treated women with both of these specific gynecologic issues for years. The skin texture promotes a vicious cycle of overgrowth and abnormal texture. It not only can be corrected surgically, but ongoing maintenance for the long term is needed help to prevent future occurrence, which will happen with that type of skin tissue. There are also ways of avoiding suture to prevent the scalloping. Gynecologists may have slightly varying ways to deal with these issues, so bring up these issues and any others with your gynecologist you choose.

Answer: Yes for revision Based on the photographs you presented, you would be a solid candidate for a revision type procedure, which would remove the scalloped edges and give a more smooth appearance.
