Finally did it! Labiaplasty journey..

WORTH IT
Some stats on me: I'm 23, freshly out of college, and have ABSOLUTELY despised my labia forever.
After researching my butt off, I finally found an incredible physician in Atlanta. I am now one week and two days post-op and while the swelling and itching have been a pain, I am over the moon with my results! You'll see in the photos the progression of one day, four days, and 6 days post-op. My right labia has been WAY more swollen the entire time, but it required more extensive work. The bruised, swollen portion you see in the photos is ALL the right side. The left side is pink and nicely hidden. My doctor assured me when the swelling is gone, the sides should match! I'll keep this updated as I go!

The right side is continuing to get smaller and match the left! I continue taking ibuprofen to decrease swelling. I didn't ice today but I still do to also help with swelling (plus it helps itching!).
I am already very happy with my results. You all, I cannot reiterate how important it is to pick a physician who knows about the anatomy and this procedure. Dr. Moore is a urogynecologist (spelling?) and has extensive knowledge of the vagina and vulva. I have nothing but respect for plastic surgeons, but I can't say enough about choosing the doctor I did!

did your doctor use the "wedge" or the "Trim" method?

He used both. I had a small wedge to pull the hood down, but he trimmed as well!

Plastic surgeons see all sorts of stuff during their career. There is absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about! It’s a personal decision that you have to make in order to improve your confidence and quality of life. Are you scared to talk to the surgeon and having them look or are you nervous to tell people you are looking to do a procedure?
