Post labioplasty rehabilitation: basic procedural measures
Labioplasty in our time is becoming an increasingly common operation. Therefore, for women, you should know some of the nuances and rules that must be observed for rapid rehabilitation and healing.
The first thing that experts recommend during rehabilitation after labioplasty is bed rest and rest during the day after surgery.
From the next day, a woman may well return to the former mode of her life, but at the same time observing such rules:
- wear light, comfortable and loose clothing and underwear;
- you can not sit for a long time;
- avoid increased physical exertion;
- not recommended for personal hygiene use soaps and aggressive shampoos;
- drinking alcohol and smoking should be avoided;
- thermal procedures are contraindicated;
- one should also refrain from intimate intimacy for two or three weeks;
- it is necessary to suspend for a couple of weeks and a visit to the pool, sauna, solarium or gym;
- It is recommended to adhere to proper nutrition;
- avoid crowds and events;
- Follow all additional doctor recommendations.
Some necessary procedures that need to be performed after labioplasty should be considered.
- Firstly, in the first days after surgery, it is necessary to ensure cold in the area to be operated on. To do this, use clean sanitary napkins.
- There is also a need for sterile treatment of postoperative sutures. For this procedure, use solutions with disinfectant properties. It is necessary to treat the seams with a solution after each visit to the toilet room, approximately
7-8 times a day. Usually the duration of the disinfection treatment procedures is ten days. - In the first days of rehabilitation after labioplasty, blood flow from wounds may occur. In this case, you need a special cream for wound healing. This cream is applied directly to the gasket.
It is worth noting
The next day after surgery, an examination by a specialist is necessary. After this, the next medical examination is recommended in five days.
As a rule, the seams disappear after three weeks, they simply dissolve. If the stitches cause a great feeling of discomfort in the woman or cause irritation, the doctor removes them before the time of resorption, but not earlier than a week after the operation.
If a woman notices that the bleeding is permanent, or one of the labia has increased, or there are constantly sharp and severe pain, you should certainly consult a doctor.
Postoperative care after labioplasty: necessary medications in the first-aid kit
Usually, experts recommend purchasing two basic tools that will help women in postoperative care after labioplasty. This is a special ointment called Levomekol and a disinfectant solution called Chlorhexidine or Miramistin. Levomekol applied to the gasket with a thick layer. This ointment will help to avoid the irritable process, as well as significantly speed up the healing process.
Usually ointment is used for the first time
In the first-aid kit of women after labioplasty, there may also be some antibacterial drugs, for example, ciprolet. Such means will help to avoid inflammatory processes, and, as a rule, their doctor prescribes them.
Usually, if a woman complies with all the recommendations of the doctor and uses the recommended drugs in the postoperative period, by the end of the first week, after the labioplasty, possible swelling and minor pain will disappear.
Is it possible to wash after labioplasty?
Usually, it is not recommended to bathe for the first three days, after that it will be possible to take a shower, but at the same time avoid direct contact with a jet of water, as well as monitor the temperature of the water. Hot water is contraindicated. You also need to gently use a towel, do not rub the area, and gently blot it.
Do not use a washcloth. To maintain personal hygiene from the first day after labioplasty, simple washing with light movements with warm water and gentle intimate hygiene is sufficient.
After about a month after surgery, it is possible to go to the pools or swim in the sea or other bodies of water. The main thing is to not stop paying special attention to their personal hygiene.
