Great experience with Dr. Michelle Jones Singer - I’m so excited to see everything settle and heal

I’d say I’m completely healed at this point and feel so much better about myself. My vagina used to look gaping open and my labia were long and saggy ???? I’m incredibly thankful to Dr. Singer. She’s so compassionate and sweet!

Hello everyone. I just wanted to pop on here and give you an update. 10 weeks post vaginoplasty/labiaplasty and everything is healing really well, I think. There are still some small lines where my stitches were at the top of my labias but I expect they will disappear completely at some point but they’re hardly noticeable (and a LOT better than where I started regardless). The bottom of my vagina is healed from the vaginoplasty and looks really great.
We’ve had sex 3 times now, starting at 8 weeks post surgery. The first time I could hardly stand the pain and about punched my husband *sorry hubs*. The second time still hurt really bad. We had sex last night and it was painful still but MUCH better. I still felt twinges of pain and soreness but it’s only because my scar tissue on the outside is very tight, brand new skin and needs to be stretched. BUT - my husband is VERY happy and even though I was sore, I was still able to feel how tight I am now and enjoy it. I’m sure it will get better with him! My advice is just to take it very slow at first and be patient with yourself!
I’m posting a photo as of now - 10 weeks post. After we have sex I can tell my labia gets a little swollen again still just from being jostled but then it calms back down. Dr. Singer told me it takes about 4 months to for everything to completely “settle”. All in all I’m happy and I feel like it was very worth it! Let me know if you have any questions (:

I love Dr. Michelle Jones Singer! I had a vaginoplasty and a labiaplasty - currently 3 days post surgery. I was so worried - will sex hurt? Will it look the way I hoped it would? Would there be scar tissue? Dr. Singer reassured me every step of the way and she is so kind and comforting. My surgery started at 1:30pm and took about 2 1/2 hours.

I actually had a panic attack right as the procedure started (apparently the gas doesn’t calm me down but makes me hallucinate haha) and Dr. Singer and her assistants calmed me down and I was able to relax the whole rest of the surgery and apologize multiple times for feeling like an idiot! That night in the hotel I was in a LOT of pain.

I couldn’t get comfortable and cried a couple times but took my pain meds as prescribed and the next morning was still painful but better. I felt pain everywhere - from my labia to my butt, but now on day 3 it’s mostly just the vaginal opening. I’m still in pain and I’m still walking funny, still bleeding slightly I still have a pad on.

I can only get comfortable if I’m laying down and there’s no pressure whatsoever on my butt or vagina, which sucks because I’m a side sleeper (: I have zero regrets and I’m so excited to see everything settle and heal in the coming weeks. I’ll come back and keep you updated! Feel free to ask questions!
