Labiaplasty surgery may seem like it would have a rather rough recovery period. While there is certainly a level of discomfort involved, it is actually not too much different from any other cosmetic surgery. Let’s look at the frequently asked question, “What is recovery like after labiaplasty surgery?”
Immediately after surgery, you may experience some minor swelling and pain. Dr. Sessa may prescribe medications to help you manage this, but may also recommend icing the area to help reduce swelling and make you more comfortable. You will also need to take a few days off work.
Within a few days, you’ll likely begin feeling better and have few side effects and pain. Patients often feel more comfortable getting up and around. Though sex and strenuous activities will need to wait at least six weeks or until cleared by Dr. Sessa to resume because this poses risk to the incisions and results.
