The recovery time and how long it takes for labiaplasty to look “normal” can vary depending on several factors including individual healing processes, the extent of the surgery, and adherence to post-operative care instructions. Typically, swelling and bruising are common immediately after the procedure, and they gradually subside over the first few weeks.
Most patients start to see significant improvement in the appearance of the surgical site within a few weeks to a couple of months after the procedure. However, it’s essential to note that full healing and final results may take several months to a year. It’s crucial to follow your surgeon’s post-operative care instructions diligently to promote optimal healing and minimize complications. Additionally, if you have any concerns during the recovery process, it’s essential to communicate with your surgeon for guidance and reassurance.
