There is usually swelling and bruising in the genital region for the ﬁrst few days. and this can be treated with ice packs, rest and simple analgesia. Patients usually wear a pantyliner to absorb any spotting or light bleeding for approximately a week after surgery. The stitches are self-dissolving so there is no need for physical removal in this delicate area. http://sydneycosmeticsanctuary.com.au/cosmeticsurgery/ourprocedures/body/labiaplasty/
