Answer: Vaginal dryness as a consequence of abdominoplasty. Unless your abdomenoplasty is so tight that it unnaturally raises your genitalia, you should not experience dryness. The devil is in the details. If the procedure involves reshaping the vulva, there could be problems, but in most situations, that remodeling of your genitalia should not cause dryness. Speak to an experiences board certified plastic surgeon and discuss your options.
