I would like to get a chemical peel done to lighten the intimate area but was wondering if I should do it before or after.
Answer: Peel after labiaplasty You may want to get the peel after labiaplasty, once you’ve fully recovered from the surgery. This could be a few months, depending on how your recovery goes.

Answer: Modern Women's Health Hi there! I highly suggest wait until healing is done to help lighten the area. Not only will it help with potential scarring, but there's no true purpose doing it before. As your provider, (bleaching cream or chemical peel) when you are fully cleared to do so. It's not worth risking infection for.

Answer: Labiaplasty and peel Hi there I would recommend to have the chemical peel after the labiaplasty is performed. There is a 8-12 weeks healing period. The peel will help to improve the labiaplasty scar if it is visible. Some of the dark areas are removed during the operation so less chemical solution will be needed. Best of luck and swift recovery!

Answer: Labiaplasty That’s really your preference, but I’d recommend getting after you have healed from labiaplasty. You might not even want or “need” the chemical peel once you see your results from labiaplasty. Most of my patients love the taught results and do not pursue chemical peels afterwards. Plus, even though labiaplasty scars heal and fade very quickly, if you decided to do a chemical peel, it would accelerate the scar fading process. Feel free to make a consultation appointment here at Smith Plastic Surgery and we can go over the many options my surgery center and med spa offer to tighten things up.
