I also had surgery with Brassard in 2005. I plucked the hairs in much the same way as you did for several years without much improvement although I concur that the process is painless. Now, plucking is more difficult as I have long nails. In the last year, I have noticed there are less hairs inside my vagina so I'm hopeful that soon, they will all fade on their own and with a little help from my fingers but had I had the chance to go back and redo things, I would have done electro. The added cost and pain would have been worthwhile, in my opinion.
My surgery was in 2015, so a decade later, in which time, I would like to believe, his technique improved quite a bit, as I haven't heard of recent post-ops with any significant hair issues. Of course, I don't have any statistics to back my belief, but I did research the best I could before my surgery. What I found were several cases like yours, from a long time ago, but no similar cases within the last five years.
I am sorry you have a continuing issue. As somebody pointed out to me earlier, different ethnic groups may have different issues with hair, and being very blonde, perhaps I am at least risk, I dunno. But I do know that, for me, I only had two choices for surgeons with enough intersex vaginal reconstruction experience to choose from, and both of them use the scraping method, which was a HUGE relief to me, since the idea of even a single zap down there sends me into a conniption fit, lol. Supporn was the other surgeon, but I liked Brassard's reputation for retaining better sensation and his 'look'. Plus he was in driving distance, not on the other side of the planet, and he had a great recovery residence, and didn't require as much dilation etc...
Again, sorry about the continued plucking, I would be bummed out, too.
