After Labiaplasty

The post-labiaplasty period is a healing journey that will allow you to achieve the comfort and aesthetics you’ve dreamed of after a successful procedure. With proper care and professional support, this process can be quite comfortable and swift. Just as it was when deciding on surgery, it’s natural to have many questions afterward. As AVO Clinic, Türkiye’s leading health tourism agency, we’ve prepared this guide to help you understand the post-labiaplasty process step by step, what to consider, and how to get through it with the greatest comfort. Remember, the process doesn’t end with surgery; we’re here to help you until you’ve fully recovered.

The First Week After Labiaplasty: Basic Steps to Recovery

The recovery process after labiaplasty is generally rapid. Most patients can return to their daily lives shortly after the procedure. Here are some things to keep in mind during the first week:

• Rest: Resting for the first few days after surgery accelerates the healing process.
• Hygiene: Keeping the area clean and dry, as recommended by your surgeon, minimizes the risk of infection.
• Expected Effects: Mild swelling and bruising may occur after surgery, but these will quickly subside.
• Dressing: Wearing loose, cotton underwear and comfortable clothing for the first week will reduce sensitivity in the area.

Frequently Asked Questions: Post-Labiaplasty Process

When Will the Stitches Dissolve After Labiaplasty?

This is one of the most frequently asked questions by patients. Surgeons typically use self-dissolving sutures. These sutures can take several weeks to completely dissolve and do not need to be removed. Your surgeon will provide you with the most specific information.

How Are Pain and Discomfort Managed?

The procedure is performed using modern anesthesia techniques, providing a painless experience. Any mild stinging and discomfort that may be felt after surgery can be easily managed with simple painkillers prescribed by your surgeon.

When Can I Return to Normal Activities?

The recovery process is rapid, and patients can return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure, usually within a week. However, it’s important to wait the time specified by your surgeon (usually a few weeks) for activities such as intense sports and cycling.

Long-Term After Labiaplasty: Sexual Life and Final Results

After the recovery period is complete, patients expect satisfactory results, both aesthetically and functionally.

• Sexual Life After Labiaplasty Surgery: After recovery, most patients report that their sex life is more comfortable and satisfying than before. The quality of their sex life improves because the physical discomfort experienced before the surgery has disappeared. It is important to follow your surgeon’s instructions regarding when to resume sexual intercourse.
• Final Appearance: It may take several months for all post-operative swelling and swelling to completely resolve. At the end of this period, the labia minora will achieve their final aesthetic and symmetrical appearance.
