Some people were born w perturding labia and im one of them. It wasnt anything awful and i didnt mind it visually. But it was just so uncomfortable, jeez! I always felt that. It took me till 26 y o to realize the constant pain down there was due to pertuding labia hahah. Ok so it took me some years to muster up tbe courage to do the surgery and yesterday i did it! Very happy already w results even tho she is a bit swollet

Welcome, thanks for sharing your personal journey with us. So far so good -- how's the recovery coming along? You don't appear to have much swelling. Did you have the trim or wedge technique?

Day 3 contacted dr hunter w concern

Dr said : You are just swollen, more on one side. It is completely normal. It may still get a little worse before starts getting better. Try not to look. Continue icing today if you can. You will be fine. The swelling will be significantly better by next weekend. The asymmetry of swelling may take a month to resolve, but it will. Try not to worry- you will be absolutely fine.

Swelling tends to get worse with the trim method several days after surgery. Your swelling looks pretty good compared to many others I've seen. You are only a few days out from surgery. You will see lots of changes in the coming weeks. Waiting is the hardest part of the surgery. Ice and stay off your feet and much as you can. You look to be doing well so soon after surgery. Congrats.

Indeed, the recovery takes awhile so be sure to refrain from any strenuous activity and keep a close eye down below and continue to discuss any concerns you have with your doctor.  Rest is key right now, so take it easy, watch some good movies or binge watch your favorite Netflix show (I'm hooked on "The Returned" right now)  eat well and drink lots of water. I thought you might find the following FAQ helpful:  When Do You See The Final Result?

Oh, have you checked in here yet?
