A member asked:

How disfiguring is scalpel surgery for severe vulvar dysphlasia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It varies.: It completely depends on both the size of the abnormal area, and upon the area of the vulva infected. Most results are not disfiguring. Do not hesitate to discuss these concerns with your surgeon.
