Long Term Investment in Self

Prior to having the procedure done, I had a lot of hang-ups about it; it’s a heavy decision. If you are reading this review, I imagine you might have some of the same concerns. But I am glad that I went through with it, and I am glad I chose Dr. Amalfi as my provider.

Philosophically, I do not believe there was anything physically or aesthetically wrong with how I was before. Everyone has different anatomy, and that is beautiful. Still, I’ll admit that I had a lot of internalized shame—not only about the procedure, but also about seeking a remedy. Ultimately, I rationalized my decision to pursue labiaplasty out of a desire for comfort, specifically while doing some sports.

No one on Dr. Amalfi’s team ever made me feel bad or ashamed of my anatomy. The consultation was very empowering, and everyone in the office was kind, professional, and upbeat. I felt totally at ease.

The procedure itself was not as painful or scary as I had imagined. It was over before I even knew what was happening. The recovery was more involved than the procedure itself, but even that wasn’t as difficult as I had expected.

Full recovery took about a month, but I was able to do office work and light chores after about three or four days. I waited about three months before riding my bicycle or having intercourse. I probably could have resumed those activities sooner, but I chose to be cautious.

I had the procedure done about a year and a half ago. The results have been fantastic. I probably would have left a review sooner but it’s simply not something I think about anymore. No more chafing, adjusting, or pinching. Grooming is easier as well. I’m a bit reluctant to upload photos, but everything looks totally normal and natural.
