I had a hood reduction - I don’t like how wide it is. Can this be fixed further?

Hi all, I had a cliteropexy and hood reduction. I retained all sensation and like result except I want the top part (where the clitoral folds begin) to be more narrow and tucked in, if that makes sense. In short, I want the top to be more of a tucked triangle point than a thicker/wider “base” of my clit. Is this possible to do?

Thank you for your question More likely than not the clitoris will shrink back but there are no guarantees If it does, a reverse V hoodoplasty can trim down the hood to the degree you choose
