Labiaplasty 12 days post op. Is this normal for incision line?

April 24, 2016
Asked By:CM03 in Orlando, FL

I had the trimming method 12 days ago, I have a defined line down both sides of my labia. In some places it scabs a little, but not in other places. I have a lot of stitches in my labia, just not over the top where the incision is. Is this normal& will it all heal/close completely over time or should I ask my doctor to add more stitches over the top because I think it's not fusing together properly? I just don't want to heal with a line down both my labia. Any info would be appreciated!
