So i have been post op with brassard for almost 5 years now . the surgery was well and my husband doesn't mind the scarring , but i have hated it cosmetically since he did the surgery. as far as labia majora is very big and one side is bigger the the other, also the labia minora...well... what labia minora lol!
The scarring is huge , keloided and thick . I would love to have a revision. My question is ... do you think he would consider a revision for something he did 5 years ago ? or is that to late ? i will send him an email .. but i would like opinions from any girls ( especially brassard girls ) that have experience or an opinion about this .

If he wont, just look into getting a labiaplasty done by a diff grs surgeon

I don't have a scarring problem like you, but I have been post op for almost 13 years now from Dr Brassard. If I am not mistaken, and truthfully, it's been probably too many years so who knows what policies he may have changed, but I am willing to bet that he would do some work for you and that maybe if you bargained with him a bit, he might view it as a combination labiaplasty and correction of scar tissues? Maybe some cost sharing or something? Unless you want everything for free. That might be a tough sell. I believe he did have some guarantee on his work when I had mine done. Like I said I don't know what the policies are like today though.
I ended up with a fairly small labia minor but that's actually what I wanted, not some big old flappity bits hanging down in my underwear lol

I went to Brassard in 2012; at that point he had a one-year free revisions offer, but he seemed willing to do revisions after that first year as well. (They just wouldn't be free.) I don't know about scar correction per se - that you might need to ask him directly.
I also have small, tidy labia minora, which I think is a "trademark" of his. But like Zumbagirl, I'm happy with it.

Here are some surgeons doing revisions:

If you concern are scars and some small corrections you might look for surgeons doing labiaplasty... there should be some since there are also cis women looking for that kind of service...
I'd look for a reputable surgeon...
