The results of labiaplasty will be apparent immediately after surgery. However, the full effects may take several weeks or even months to fully develop. Swelling and bruising are common side effects of the procedure and can take several weeks to resolve. During this time, patients may also experience some discomfort, which they can usually manage with over-the-counter pain relievers. However, as the healing process continues, these symptoms should gradually subside, and the final results should become more visible. Patients should follow their doctor’s post-operative instructions closely to ensure optimal results.
