One month. Reflecting.
WORTH IT$4,000
So, going through this has been a roller coaster ride of emotions. But lately, it had been mostly positive. I cannot stress enough how happy I am that I decided to do this. I can't stop smiling over simple things like not having to part my lips to use the bathroom, or wearing cute underwear, or the feeling of being lighter and cleaner. I am still healing so I am still rather sensitive, but even sitting on the spot where I was sewn back together is a lot less painful than living with prominent labia.
It has also done wonders for my self esteem... something that I have struggled with for the past year. I gained about 50 pounds since moving to a new city last summer, and getting this done has really pushed me forward to actually caring about myself again. Since my surgery I have started eating better, and I am now cleared to work out!! I am starting slow but in a few weeks I expect to be back on track. I've already lost 6lbs since my surgery and it will only get better from here as I can become more and more active-- now able to reach levels I could never reach without extreme pain and discomfort.
It is just really amazing to me how much my entire being has changed over something so small, so easy, and something that only myself and my boyfriend get to see. But the confidence in myself will radiate outwards... And no one has to know my little secret! Haha.

I totally understand what you mean! So crazy how something that is never really seen can hold you back and make your self confidence as a whole wither up and die. I also have started a new diet, and should be cleared to exercise soon. It's like a new start and I'm excited! Good luck to you :)
You too!! We got this!! :)
You've really took the words out of my mouth!! Amazing x
Thank you so much for posting all this. I am also in the Durham area, your age, and had no idea where to even start on this. Reading this has made me feel so much better about doing the procedure so I really appreciate it! Were you happy w dr. Coan? He obviously did an amazing job just was wondering if there is anything to look out for? Once I have enough $ I think I'll get it done sometime next year!
Thanks again
Thanks again
I had no issues whatsoever!! And now I am back to my old self, and able to work and move so much better! Dr Coan was wonderful and I couldn't be happier.
With all due respect.. beautiful results and great updates! I am glad to finally come across Dr. Coan's labiaplasty before and afters, beings I've already had my consult, and just waiting to let my husband know when he can get off for me to schedule my surgery! This excites me for mine, thank you! (: It will be so relieving to be comfortable 'down there'. I look forward to having Dr. Coan and his staff to do this, amazing results.
Oh my gosh!! Thank you!! And Good luck :) you're in great hands!
Hey there again I hope you still check this.. how did you explain to Dr. Coan that you wanted less skin off your clit hood? I tried talking him into, and now that my surgeries down and the swelling is down, he only took off near my vagina opening leaving me with a lot of clit skin now :( well I suppose the same amount as before, it's just magnified now that I don't have anything further back.
When I went in for my consultation I asked him about dehooding and if he thought it was necessary in my case (I had read about it in regards to some peoples procedures) and he said not in my case. My anatomy was such that once the wedge was cut, and the skin was pulled taut, the looseness around my clitoral area was eliminated. But other than that, my only instructions to him really were that I wanted the inner labia to be tucked into the outer as much as possible. Do you have any remaining post-op visits? Or can you schedule one? I would definitely discuss options with him.

I am sick of stretch pants!!!
I have two pairs of black "joggers", one pair of weird tribal print "joggers", and a pair of dark gray pajama pants that I am trying to pass as not pajamas. This is all I've worn in public in 2 weeks. Athletic shorts look weird on me so they are find for the house but not for the ocular consumption of others.
I tried leggings twice with terribly itchy and uncomfortable results. But I am getting my hair done tonight and I am trying jeans!! Well... "Jeggings"... But this is a big step!! I figure sitting in a chair for a bit will be fine, as long as I mind any ride-up or digging. Wish me luck.

Wonderful news, I am thrilled to hear that this journey has motivated you to enhance other areas of your life and that you are feeling more confident. High TEN!!
