Surgical Labiaplasty

What to Expect During Your Consultation
Vaginoplasty is a complex procedure, and as such, a consultation with a board-certified surgeon is necessary. This consultation is beneficial for all parties involved. For patients, the consultation enables them to learn about vaginoplasty and whether the procedure can help them accomplish their surgical goals. For surgeons, the consultation allows them to analyze a patient’s surgical goals, medical conditions, previous surgeries, and other medical information to determine whether vaginoplasty is the best-possible treatment option.
Typically, a surgeon will perform a medical evaluation during a patient consultation. If the surgeon determines a patient is a candidate for vaginoplasty, he or she then will discuss the surgery and possible outcomes. Or, a surgeon may recommend alternative treatments if he or she determines the risks of vaginoplasty outweigh the surgery’s benefits.
The surgeons at Comprehensive Urology want to help patients in any way they can. Our surgeons will learn about patients and review all aspects of a vaginoplasty procedure with them. This approach ensures patients receive extensive care before, during, and after a vaginoplasty procedure.
Urinary Incontinence FAQs
What is surgery recovery like?
On average, a vaginoplasty procedure requires about 2 to 2.5 hours to complete. Swelling is common after surgery, and ice packs can be used to reduce swelling at this time.
Vaginoplasty recovery time is minimal. Patients should rest for one to two days after treatment, and most patients can return to work within about one week of surgery. However, patients should wait at least three weeks before they resume regular exercise and approximately six weeks before they engage in sex.
