Ready for Labiaplasty! Unsure of Surgeon - Washington, DC

I can’t believe yesterday marked five years since I’ve had the surgery. I’m still so happy I went through with the procedure after being miserable for so many years. Things are still the same, it looks the same and no pain or other issues, which I’m grateful for. Of course, I still have the frenulum remnants and have no plans to have them trimmed. I think I got lucky the first go around, so no need at this point to have them fixed and risk a complication. Can’t say I’ll never do it, but right now I really don’t care. After five years, I’ve still never told anyone in my personal life I had the surgery. Just you all here and a potential patient who saw my surgeon for a consult and called me for my experience. Even after these years, it’s still so great to not have to worry about the pain and irritation and have the big labia just getting in the way of normal activities. I feel like I’m the “me” I should’ve been all along. It was scary to spend that much money on a cosmetic surgery, but it was money well spent.

Hello everyone. Hard to believe I’m only days away from the four year anniversary of my labiaplasty. These days, I rarely even think about having had the surgery. I just go about living my life and don’t have to worry about the pain, rubbing and irritation that I had for so many years. I can wear all types of clothing and do all normal activities without feeling like I have to adjust myself or alter the method of whatever I was doing to compensate for the pain/irritation. I just feel normal in that area and it’s not even a second thought now. And that’s exactly what I wanted for all the years before having the surgery!! Yes, the remnants of the frenulum aren’t ideal, but I could really care less. I was never wanting to have my labia look like the Barbie porn perfection type. That’s fine for others, but I wanted a more natural look with some labia left to play with. I wish I could’ve tolerated the bigger labia, but it just was too painful, physically and emotionally. I’m just still so happy to have not had any physical or sexual complications, so it makes me not want to try and “fix” the frenulum remnants. My only regret is waiting so long to actually have the surgery. I still have never told anyone I had this surgery and never plan on it either. This was just a very personal decision for me and I so happy four years out I’m still so happy I went through with it! Good luck to those who are doing their research before moving forward. I am more than happy to answer any questions.

Hey ladies!!! It’s been awhile! I just realized that yesterday was the three year anniversary of my surgery. It’s hard to believe that I had an issue that caused me so much pain and embarrassment for so many years. Here I am now, with no insecurities about my labia and thank goodness no more pain!! Before the surgery I had so much anxiety about how I looked, on top of the physical pain and discomfort that I had every single day. I really tried to get over my issues. I went to the big labia sites that celebrated women with more tissue down there. I knew there were men and women who loved big labia. None of that could get me past my deep insecurities or the physical issues I had every day. Having to adjust myself when I was walking or exercising. There was no getting around the rubbing and chafing. I can truly say, having my labiaplasty was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in my life. Looking back, I realize how much time I spent feeling inferior, disfigured, uncomfortable and in pain. Year after year. I no longer feel that way. I don’t think about that area at all anymore, outside of a sexual situation. In the sexual situations, I feel good. No insecurities, pain or discomfort. No embarrassment or shame. Rereading my previous entries really brought back how much I suffered before. I came across a story tonight on Facebook about a woman who had labiaplasty and that’s what actually reminded me that I had the surgery. And then I realized it was close to the anniversary of my own surgery. Who would’ve thought it would take a Facebook story to remind me I had the surgery! I’ll be honest in that I still don’t care for the little baby flaps inside (remnants of the clitoral frenulum). But I still don’t care enough to have them corrected by my surgeon. All my big issues are gone, so I’m still happy with where I’m at. I still haven’t told anyone about the surgery, believe it or not. I’m just happy I feel normal.
