I had my surgery yesterday with Dr Bruce Allan in Calgary, AB. So far I'm very pleased with how things are going. Of course I won't be able to give a final review until hubby and I have done the deed but so far the outside is looking amazing.
I arrived a half hour early to take something for taking the edge off. Shortly after the doctor put some numbing cream on. It stung minorly and then I went back to the waiting area for about 20 more mins. The nurse came and got me and took me to the surgery room, which was quite comfy. There was a tv, magazines and I was able to text hubby throughout the procedure. I was feeling pretty anxious and nervous about the freezing but it wasn't that bad at all. The numbing cream helped a lot and the stinging that I could feel in the deeper muscles was very tolerable. Dr Allan also taped a vacuum to my leg so I couldn't smell any of the burning or smoke from the laser. Overall the procedure was not long maybe an hour or so. I could feel pressure and pulling and tugging but no pain. Dr Allan showed me how things looked with a mirror afterwards and I'm super hopeful because I looked fresh and young again; I can hardly wait for the next 6 weeks to get frisky with hubs! My confidence is already feeling pretty high! I don't want to get too excited and jinx anything but so far so good! I've had very little bleeding and have managed with a small panty liner. I was worried about how bad the pain would be once the freezing wore off but so far it's been tolerable. I'm a bit of a wuss, even after all my child births haha, so I've been taking 2 of the Tylenol 3's every 4 hours; I did set my alarm throughout the night. I'm gonna try and go 6 hours since the pain has been manageable and tmrw I'll go down to one t3. I also put the ice pack from my goody bag on last night as it felt swollen. I would recommend taking a laxative too as I sent hubby to get me some last night as I could feel pressure but haven't been able to go.
I don't have much else to report that I can think of but please feel free to ask any questions; I want to help out in any way I can as I know this was a big decision for me and I felt scared myself about having this done. Today I'll be staying off my feet for most of the day and watching Netflix. I'll update throughout the next six weeks.
Thanks and good luck to all you ladies who are considering this.....it feels great doing something for me!!

4 week update

So I'm not sure if anyone is following this but I wanna finish my review. I had my 4 week follow up w Dr Allan yesterday and things are looking good so far. Visually, I'm very pleased and thrilled to look so good down there again. Hubby and I won't be having sex for a few more weeks; Doc thinks it's still too soon and could compromise the outcome.
The healing has been pretty good overall too. I had a small hiccup a few days after surgery and experienced some sharp pulling/tugging pain for a couple of days when I would move my body in certain ways or too quickly. We're not sure what was causing the pain but Dr Allan gave me some antibiotics incase there was a start of an infection starting. Needless to say, it only lasted a couple days and wasn't too bothersome. I did need help w my kids though.
I will keep you ladies posted and write a final review in a few weeks once we've gone ahead and had some frisky business!
All the best to everyone w whatever you decide!

Hi Ladies!
I'm so sorry for my late update and not sure who's all following this but I definitely owe it to Dr Allan and especially the women considering this surgery.
I can officially say that I'm very happy with the results. At first sex was super tight and it took a few months to have things loosen up a bit. It's still very tight, looks great and very close to prechildren (sorry I'm too shy to poste a pic) and makes me feel new again. Sex is amazing and my confidence has soared.
I would def recommend Dr Allan. My surgery was really easy with a few minor hiccups and the results have definitely been worth it.
I wish you all the best in your decision and hope my review has been helpful!
