Labiaplasty, like any surgical procedure, involves some level of discomfort and pain during the recovery period. However, the level of pain experienced can vary from person to person and depends on factors such as individual pain tolerance, the extent of the procedure, and how well the post-operative care instructions are followed.
Most patients report mild to moderate discomfort following labiaplasty, which can be managed with pain medication prescribed by the surgeon. Swelling and bruising are also common in the days following surgery. Your surgeon will provide you with detailed instructions on how to manage pain and promote healing, which may include ice packs, rest, and avoiding certain activities.
It’s essential to discuss any concerns or questions about pain management with your surgeon before undergoing the procedure. They can provide you with personalized guidance based on your specific situation.
