Revision Labiaplasty
Description
Revision labiaplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct or enhance the results of a previous labiaplasty, which is a surgery aimed at reshaping the labia minora or majora. This revision surgery is sought by patients who may be experiencing dissatisfaction with the aesthetic or functional outcomes of their initial procedure, such as asymmetry, excessive scarring, discomfort, or other complications. During the revision labiaplasty, the surgeon first reviews the patient's medical history and discusses their concerns and desired outcomes. The surgical plan is then tailored to address the specific issues, which may involve trimming excess tissue, reshaping irregular edges, or addressing scar tissue. On the day of the surgery, the patient is usually administered either local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the case and patient preferences. The surgeon then makes precise incisions to access the labial tissue and uses fine surgical techniques to correct the previous issues. Steps may include excising excess skin, reshaping to improve symmetry, smoothing irregular edges, and meticulously closing the incisions to minimize further scarring. Throughout the procedure, the focus is on achieving both a visually appealing and a comfortable functional result. Post-operative care is crucial, entailing instructions on proper hygiene, activity restrictions, and follow-up visits to ensure proper healing and satisfactory outcomes.
