$1000 Total Cost (Even Without Insurance). High quality results! - Dr. Osgood in MI
ORIGINAL POST
The first memory of me realizing I was different...
WORTH IT$1,000
The first memory of me realizing I was different was when I was about 8 years old. But at that age, I was not sure if my friend was different, or I was. I also didn't worry about it back then. Then as I got older, I started attending figure drawing classes, and the more variety of nude female art models I saw, the more I felt deformed. Also, there is constant discomfort for me when wearing jeans, bike riding, wearing lace panties/ tighter panties, etc. It is a constant feeling of annoyance. I will say, I was lucky enough to never have a man say anything rude to me to hurt my feelings about the way I look down there. I am thankful for that, because I can only imagine how hurt I'd be.
About 8-10 years ago, thanks to the internet, I realized there was a surgery I could do for it. But it was typically stated to be $5K or more. Well, thanks to another review on Real Self, I found out about Dr. Osgood in Michigan.
I called and made an appointment for a consultation. He looked at my hypertrophy labia problem, and said what he will do is a zig zagged trim method. When it heals, thanks to the zig zag, it will look natural (rather than a straight line cut). The skin volume will be significantly reduced, and it will be tucked in and tidy looking. Also the discoloration will be gone.
I will be doing this in office, with no sedation. Just some numbing shots. Not every person can tolerate this type of experience of being awake while you are having it cut off for 2-3 hours, but I am ok with that. Also, I am allowed to drive myself home after it. I live about 2 hours away.
Dr. Osgood was really great. He is confident and clearly has expertise, and a very kind bedside manner. I can't believe this will be $1000 total, including all follow ups. The highest cost they had quoted on the phone, before I had my appt was $1500. So I feel like I am incredibly blessed to find this doctor in my area. I really can't wait to get this done (August 1st).

im sooo nervous for you. I hope they turn out perectly ! 1000 is extreamly cheap, i would be a little weary. I also deperatley need labiaplasty done , my labia are much a=larger then yours ( I actually think yours a perfect) and im willing to travel accross the otherside of the world to have the best. I wouldnt be able to live with myself if mine came out botched. I have seen so many botch jobs on here, and they say you really do get what you pay for so please b carefull. make sure you do a background check and go to someone who is familiar with the procedure. you dont want to botch ur labia and then have to spend double the money for a revision x all the best

Thank you for your comment. I will certainly keep posting on this thread after I have the procedure, and share how the outcome is. I understand the concern for a low price, but I am currently feeling very confident after doing a lot of research on the doctor's credentials, as well as another Real Self member who had a very successful labiaplasty by him. I liked the doctor very much when I met him, and the price is low because I am choosing to not have anesthesia. If this is something that I find to be one of the best decisions of my life, I will certainly let you know so that you may inquire further with the doctor of your own procedure.

i reaaaally hope it turns out good for you! have you seen many before afer photos? I'm choosing my surgon judging on pictures, I just cant trust professionals word these days haha. I will keep an eye out for your update. Please let us know how you get on. I would also be interested to see how painfull the initial numbing injections are ! I know local anesthetic cuts down the costs dramatically but i heard they are the worst part of the surgery for many. I am also a super anxious person so im not sure how i would feel being wide awake knowing whats going on down there lol. hopefully the provide a good sedative. goodluck!!! xx

Wow that is incredible! Even though you still looked beautiful before, I’m sure the procedure made such an incredible difference in the way you feel about your body and your overall self confidence. I experience similarities in my labia and have alway felt self conscious also. I didn’t even know it was possible to correct it with surgery. Thank you for your inspirational post and I will DEFINITELY make a consultation. I’ll share my experience with Dr Oswald as well! Thanks again and God Bless you!
