Recovery After Labioplasty

After surgery, patients will experience some mild swelling. The recovery is easily tolerated and patients generally report minimal to no discomfort. The evening, (or the following day,) of the procedure, the patient should shower and use phisoderm/phisohex or baby shampoo to gently clean the area and then apply Bacitracin or Neosporin® antibiotic ointment to the incision lines. Most patients return to work in two to four days.  Sutures (stitches) are self-dissolving; hence, no sutures need be removed. Sexual relations may resume in about six weeks. Patients from out of town should plan to stay  two or three days after surgery.
