Labiaplasty revision
Revision labiaplasty corrects problems after a previous labiaplasty: asymmetry, an edge that healed unevenly, too much tissue removed, or discomfort that persists. At Gangnam Podo Woman Clinic revisions are assessed carefully, because the first question is whether a further operation will help.

Is this for you?
- Visible asymmetry after healing is complete (at least six months)
- An irregular or notched edge
- Over-resection: exposure, dryness or discomfort from too little tissue
- Persistent pain or pulling at the scar
- A result that does not match what was agreed

How we assess a revision
Labiaplasty revision is available for patients who had surgery elsewhere. Dr. Mo has authored a textbook on female aesthetic surgery used by other specialists. The clinic performs 4th-generation labiaplasty, a laser-based technique that closes the incision without external sutures. This page is general information and is not a diagnosis; a consultation is needed to decide whether a procedure suits you.
We examine the tissue that remains, not only the shape. Reducing further is straightforward with the laser technique; restoring tissue that was removed is harder and may involve fat grafting or filler to the labia majora rather than the labia minora. We tell you what a revision can and cannot achieve before you travel, using photographs you choose to share or a video consultation.
Timing matters: scars soften for six to twelve months, and operating earlier risks correcting something that would have settled.

Questions
How soon after my first surgery can I have a revision?
Usually not before six months, and often we advise waiting a year for scars to soften.
Can removed tissue be replaced?
Not directly. Volume can sometimes be restored to the labia majora with fat or filler, which changes the overall appearance.
Do you comment on the previous surgeon's work?
No. We assess the tissue in front of us and what can be done now.
