Labiaplasty Gone Terribly Wrong

I had this surgery done a whole ago bc some discomfort. I was told and read that it was safe. It completely ruined my body and overall health. Once Dr michael lau cut off my labia and used his laser technique to cauterize the tissue all sensation was gone and the damage is perminant. It has only gotten worse with time. Every year my pain gets worse. I was healthy before. My doctor decided how much of my body to remove and it was too much. The worse part is that I was completely normal before. This surgery is dangerous, it ruined my life and can ruin yours too. Go look at real 0hotos and you will see that you are normal. Dr providing this service are capitalizing on a trend that has not been adequately studied yet. They can harm you with no consequences and will say it's your fault for having the surgery done. It is medical malpractice because of risks involved. All the positive reviews are only cases of short term results. Do not be fooled. It is dangerous.

Still in pain

After 3 years I have to say that the damage and pain as a result of this surgery is still severe. I cannot get out of bed most days. I was happy, healthy and active before the surgery but now I do not have my health. My life has been sygnifucantly damaged because of Dr Lau. Seems that my discomfort only gets worse with time. I cannot stress enough how much Dr Lau minimalizes the true risks involved with this surgery. He made me think it was safe and a normal thing to do. There is nothing safe or good about this. Any man who can convince a woman that she needs are labia cut and saudered is sick. Real men who care about women's health would never to this to women.

My surgery was done by an accredited surgeon.

However, my results were awful. He cut most of my tissue off leaving me with a lot of scar tissue, numb and in pain. My hormones are now off balance, I've had significant weight gain and can no longer participate in physical activities. It is a very painful expetince to go through. I was only 31 and just starting my life. Now i very lityle to look fotward to because my health is so compromised. Worse decision ever.

Overall rating

He cut off all my labia leaving me disfigured and in chronic pain. He told me it was safe multiple times and did not adequately warn me of the real risks involved. I no longer have feeling in the area he cauterized using his laser technique and there is no way to fix it. I cannot work as a result of this surgery because I cannot walk due to pain. He showed no empathy, compassion or kindness to me after I shared my results with him. He tried to cover it up and told his staff that I have anxiety issues, which i do not. I was very healthy and athletic before the surgery and am now disabled as a result of surgery. He never even offered a refund for the damage caused. Very unethical. A good doctor would never cause a patient this much harm.
