Preparing for a labiaplasty

What should you know and what should you keep in mind before your labiaplasty?

Voorbereiding schaamlipcorrectie

Blood-Thinning Medications

If you are using blood-thinning medications (like Marcoumar, Sinaspril, Sintrom, Ascal, APC, aspirine) or antibiotics, you must inform your medical specialist during the intake consultation. They will advise how many days before the procedure you should stop taking them. In exceptional cases, you may continue using blood thinners, but only after consultation with the treating medical specialist.

Ibuprofen

Stop using Ibuprofen 10 days before and 10 days after the procedure due to its blood-thinning properties.

Smoking

Nicotine constricts blood vessels, which can lead to complications in wound healing. We strongly advise quitting smoking, preferably 6 weeks before the surgery.

Alcohol

We recommend avoiding alcohol for several days before and after the procedure.

Jewelry

You may not wear jewelry during the procedure.

Shaving

We kindly ask you to shave or remove hair from the pubic area before the procedure.

Body lotion

On the day of the procedure, do not use any body lotion or oil. These can interfere with the adhesive pads used during the procedure to connect the equipment.

Towel

We recommend bringing a towel with you on the day of the procedure. By rolling up the towel, it can serve as a pressure bandage during your journey home. This helps to minimize any swelling as much as possible. You can continue using this method for up to 3 days after the procedure.
