Hard painless lump on labia 2 years post labiaplasty - what can I do? (photos)

What could be going on is a swollen gland as opposed to a problem with your labiaplasty. You should visit your gynecologist to assess it further. It’s very easy to fix if it is a swollen or impacted gland. I hope this helps.

Thank you for your questionIt appears you have a cyst or plugged gland that has developedIt can be opened and drained or and the capsule if present can be removed Any experienced gynecologist can do this for you

Hello,
This looks to me like a small inclusion cyst along the incision line. If it does not bother you, you can leave it alone. Alternatively, it can be surgically excised under local anesthetic.
Hope that helps!

I am sorry to hear about this complication. Most likely it is a benign cyst. Possibly retention cyst or a Bartholin gland cyst. Unfortunately the only solution is surgical excision with topical anaesthesia. Best of luck

Hello, if it is not painful, there is no need to do anything, Sometimes these bumps can be caused by an allergic reaction to the sutures. But it is necessary to remove the lump with a small procedure in order to clearly understand what it is and reduce it aesthetically.

After a labiaplasty you can sometimes develop a tiny cyst in the place that worries you. Your surgeon's office is often the best place to discuss this. This can easily be removed. Make an appointment to meet for an assessment with your surgeon.

You have a trimming labiaplasty with the end of the excision at the frenulum. Most of your labia were excised. The lump may be a cyst or a distortion of the frenulum over time. A cyst can be removed and the area probably can be closed without causing a deformity if the surgeon has skills.

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. You might also want reconstruction of your labia. 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" about ten years ago.. Fortunately, you have adequate clitoral hood to reconstruct your 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 labia minora. I have done this surgery about 80 times with excellent results. The surgery takes about 3+ hours so it is not a simple office procedure. If any surgeon reduces more of your clitoral hood, 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.

HI Zelda,
It looks as though you may have a little cyst at the bottom of one of the clitoral frenulum. I would suggest that you return to visit with your surgeon for an in person exam. I would be very careful of someone wishes to cut this out as the frenulum can be a source of sexual pleasure. Please visit with a surgeon who does many labiaplasties to get an expert opinion.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Christine Rodgers

Hello Zelda,
It looks like an inclusion cyst that may have developed as you healed from your labiaplasty. This can easily be drained in the office. You should return to your surgeon who performed your labiaplasty as he'll know what to do with it and I'm sure would be happy to help you.
Best of luck,

The area that concerns you may be a small cyst. This can typically be addressed in your surgeon's office. Schedule an appointment for an evaluation.
