Ok i have a super private question ladies



Recommended Posts

I'm new to this thing and am almost a month post op. I am a woman with a big uuummm vajaja lips. Will that area also get smaller and if so is it saggy loose skin? Not sure if there are any excersizes for that area on the outside. Thank you, Amanda

Is it just that the lips that are big...as in long?, or thick (fat)? What about the "mons pubis" area--the fat bed behind the hair distribution? Many overweight/obese/people have a large fat pad behind the hair.< /p>

You will lose fat from everywhere. If the actual vaginal labia (lips) are fat/thick, they, too, will likely slim down. Then, they might be thinner and seem slightly longer.

There are some vaginonplasty, and labioplasty (the lips), procedures, if revision is really necessary. But since you've just had surgery, I'd say just watch/wait until you're at goal, IMHO.

Wish I had better news but mine did not lose a lot of fat there. This will be on the PS list or asking the surgeon about it. I have heard previously though that some ladies have this corrected only to end up with too much *** exposed... so you know that can be painful. :-( Sorry trying to keep this as clean as I can, but it is the honest truth.

That is very true, and that can cause quite uncomfortable problems. Great point, LMD.

A MM generally includes. Breast lift or implants, TT, Lipo and may or may not include labiaplasty. All the things that change with a pregnancy.

I also need my arms and thighs done.I would love to have a face lift and get rid of my turkey wattle lol. But a lass my insurance won't pay for it unless it is medically necessary.

I didn't get a kitty lift...teehee... but got significant improvement with the lower body lift.

My advice to everyone early on in the process, don't worry about what might be... focus on getting the weight off, getting healthy and geyting fit... you don't really know what you will be dealing with down the road.

I will definitely need a TT or Panni and boobs. I had a partial vulvectomy in 2011 due to a ruptured, twisted varicose vein in my vijay jay. It was the most painful surgery. I had no idea what I was going to end up with but it's pretty bad. I contemplated plastics down there but I don't know if I could go through that again. I'm gonna just focus on weight loss for now but I can't help but read these threads. I'm 42 pounds down and hate the panni already. I'm in awe of the pics I see post plastics. It's got to feel good when all is said and done.

I lost all the fat down there. Not much cushion for pushin' as my husband says. It was fairly fluffy before surgery

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
