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. The reconstruction technique depends on the deformity. However, no attempt to revise your labia should be done until you are at least five months after your past procedure as your appearance will improve, and the swelling will be less. You need to control your anxiety and wait. The reconstruction is 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" over ten years ago. You need various reconstructive techniques to give you a good appearance.. You have amputation of the upper half of each labium with some nubs of tissue. Fortunately, you have some clitoral hood to reconstruct your upper labia minora with clitoral hood flaps, which I invented and published in that journal article. In this surgery, I take the remaining tissue of your clitoral hood and transfer it downward to create upper labia minora. You will also need some transferring of some of the residual labia minora to eliminate some of the concavities and smooth out the results. I have done this surgery about 100 times with excellent results. The surgery takes 3+ hours so it is not a simple office procedure. The result will not be perfect but will be much better and should enable you to live a life without being self-conscious. If any surgeon reduces more of your clitoral hood or tissue, you will be ineligible for this repair. You only get one good chance to reconstruct you, so be patient and ask a lot of questions.
