Are you tired of the discomfort associated with an elongated labia? Whether the excess skin on your vaginal lips is a result of childbirth or genetics, the preparation and recovery for the reconstructive surgery is the same.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/intimatehealthcenter.com\/es\/is-labiaplasty-right-for-me\/\">The procedure will help resolve issues<\/a> caused by excess labial tissue, such as discomfort during sex or exercise. In addition, tightening the vaginal area and removing the sagging skin should boost a woman\u2019s confidence. Here are some tips for how to best prep for a labiaplasty and comfortably and safely recover after.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Reduce alcohol intake: <\/strong>Booze is a blood thinner, so it\u2019s not the best substance to have in the system pre-surgery. If you drink, make sure you reduce your intake the week before surgery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quit smoking: <\/strong>Smoking can increase complications such as blood clotting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shave and shower:<\/strong> Surgeons want to be able to see the vaginal area easily and of course, want it as hygienic as possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ice, ice baby: <\/strong>The cold substance is definitely a friend after a labiaplasty. Icing the vaginal area will help reduce swelling and pain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Take it easy: <\/strong>Don\u2019t head straight to the gym after a labiaplasty. A few days of rest is essential. So put those feet up, dive into that \u201cmust read\u201d list you\u2019ve been saving up or binge on those Netflix shows.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Medicate:<\/strong> Pain levels are different for every patient. Talk to your doctor about any prescriptions or over-the-counter medications you may need to deal with the post-op pain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pull out the sweats and kaftans: <\/strong>Wearing tight jeans or those new Lululemons is probably the farthest thing on your mind after a labiaplasty. Loose, breathable clothes are the best option for a week or so after surgery. So embrace the comfy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Abstain from intercourse: <\/strong>Sex is definitely out of the picture for six to eight weeks post procedure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Follow these tips and your labiaplasty should be a success. If you\u2019ve been wondering if a labiaplasty is right for you, schedule a free consultation with Dr. Ghozland to find.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you decided to move forward with a labiaplasty?
