Labiaplasty Jacksonville Florida

I have been researching this procedure for a couple of years. I was only considering plastic surgeons and was about to schedule a consultation with a doctor in Orlando. I went for my yearly gyn check up and saw that one of the doctors had started doing cosmetic vaginal procedures. I looked at photos of her work and scheduled a consultation appointment . I met with Dr. Caminero for my consultation and she answered all of my questions. We looked at photos of what I wanted to look like and what I didn’t want to look like.
She said she could do it under general or local anesthesia. They only do general anesthesia appointments once a. Month. I asked what most people chose and she said local. I decided on local and also saved 1k by doing local.
My surgery was at 9:30 and I took an Ativan once I was at the office. I chatted with the doctor and nurse the whole time. I was awake the entire time. I thought the surgery was pretty easy. Bring compression socks, doughnut pillow for ride home, make sure you have you pain meds filled before surgery. I didn’t get my pain med script until after surgery and I was on fire on the way home. Very uncomfortable!! My husband drove me home and got prescription filled.
I slept and took medicine for the rest of the day. I wasn’t in pain but was very dizzy and sick to my stomach when I stood up. I slept all day and through the night
Day 2 I stayed in bed all day today as well. For up here and there. Mainly rested and switched to Tylenol 800mg. The pain pills made me sick so I thought I would just try the Tylenol. It worked so day 2 no pain pills just Tylenol every 8 hours.
Day 3 I am still lounging. In bed and taking Tylenol. I didn’t set my alarm to take one in the middle of the night and woke up uncomfortable. Just taking it easy today.
Tips: don’t wear underwear, let it breath for first few days, get a little held hand fan to me the air feel good when it gets itchy or stings, bring a blanket to surgery.
I will keep you updated...

Update on my recovery. I felt like day 7-14 were the worst. On my Day 8 checkup with doctor I had to get more stitches and she changed my antibiotic because I had an infection brewing. I went back in for another check up Day 11 and she did the PRP Therapy (Blood Spinning) and injected it to the area that was not healing as fast. I started my period Day 14 so that was fun!
I really recommend taking at least a week off work maybe 2 if you are able to be off that long. I went back for another check up with doctor on Day 19. She took some of my stitches out and that helped with itching. The internal stitches are dissolving and turning into a white goo. It feels a lot better but by no means am I ready to wear jeans. I still sleep with no undies at night. According to the doctor I am still quite swollen. I go in tomorrow to get the rest of my stitches out (Day 25). I am still using the water bottle when I use the bathroom and ice packs at night. I am still on Antibiotics but should finish those up in the next few days. I'll keep you posted. My photos are up close so I do feel it looks bigger in photos then what it actually looks like in person. I have not shaved yet. I am waiting to get all the stitches out and then plan on carefully shaving. I'm ready to feel normal again.
