I had labiaplasty almost 3 months ago. I am still experiencing major discomfort. Any sort of pressure to my labia is so painful. I have not been amputated. I have a decent amount of tissue left although it is lumpy and also has some hardened scar tissue on part of the clitoral hood. I hate the way it looks but am only seeking revision to hopefully resolve the pain. Is revision surgery an option for pain or just aesthetics?

Answer: Options Hi Thriving637026, I am sorry that you are still dealing with some discomfort after your procedure. Three months is generally too soon to have a second procedure due to swelling fluctuation and scar tissue. The scar tissue could be causing you some discomfort but a second procedure at this time, will most likely not resolve that scar tissue. There are a couple less invasive options that might help you though. You could try to gently massage the area to break up some scar tissue or you could ask your provider if they are willing to inject a steroid to break it up. I hope this helps and I wish you luck in your recovery!
