I had a vaginal rejuvenation one year ago including tightening of the full canal, hood reduction, labiaplasty (trim of minora), and perineoplasty. I am a mother of 5 having 3 vaginal births and a twin c-section. I did not get the results I anticipated. My minora are still bulky and uncomfortable and the canal is not much tighter than before. My results have caused me a bit of anxiety and I just wonder how common is it for this surgery to fail. Is a further reduction more risky than original op?
Answer: Results Based on your submitted photos it appears you are a candidate for a revision to your procedures. It is important to discuss with your surgeon what you are wanting in terms of results. It's equally important to understand from your surgeon what you can realistically expect. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon. Hopefully the situation can be rectified if the issue was a lack of communication.

Answer: How common is it for this surgery to fail? Is a further reduction more risky than original op? Hi MissyMe2. This surgery did not necessarily fail. Did you and your surgeon discuss how much labia to remove? Did he draw a picture on your own pre-op pictures to review what he recommends to remove? Did you discuss excising the sub-frenulum folds? - The folds directly under the clitoral hood that merge with your labia? The good thing about this operative result is that you have labial tissue remaining that can be reshaped and sculpted to what you might be happier with. Many patients that have botched labiaplasties do not have enough tissue remaining to revise the surgery. The risk of the surgery should be no different than the original risk assuming you don't have any new medical issues or problems.

Answer: Labiaplasty revision and vaginoplasty revision After seeing the pictures. You should have your labiaplasty revised to achieve your desired results. You can achieve satisfactory results by reducing the labia minora in addition to some clitoral hood reduction. Make sure to consult a skilled urogynocologist or cosmetic gynecologist for an assessment and advice of the operations required in the vaginal canal.

Answer: Labiaplasty revision 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. You had a trimming labiaplasty which resulted in continued fullness, excess clitoral hood, and scalloping. 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. You can have a much better appearance by a very skilled reconstructive labiaplasty surgery. Approximately 40% of the surgeries I perform are revisions of other surgeons' labiaplasties.
