Labia Puffing recovery
Labia puffing is a common aesthetic procedure that aims to enhance the appearance of the labia minora. Recovery after this procedure is an important aspect that patients need to be aware of. Here are some points to consider:
Post-operative swelling
After the labia puffing procedure, it is normal to experience some swelling in the treated area. This swelling usually subsides within a few days to a week. Applying cold compresses and following the doctor's instructions for post-operative care can help reduce the swelling.
