Before Surgery
- For labia reduction, the genital area should be completely shaved in order to minimize the risk of infection and thus make dressing changes easier.
- For a period of around 14 days before the operation You should avoid medications that contain acetylsalicylic acid (e.g. aspirin, ASA, etc.), as these impair blood clotting.
- You should also largely avoid alcohol, cigarettes and sleeping pills. Nicotine can also reduce blood circulation and delay wound healing. Therefore, avoid nicotine two weeks before the operation and also during the wound healing phase.
After Surgery
- Daily showering with a disinfectant soap
- No sexual intercourse: 4 weeks
- Antibiotic: 7 days
