Bleeding: Excessive bleeding can occur, sometimes requiring additional surgical intervention. Infection: As with any surgery, there's a risk of infection. Scarring: Scarring may occur, which could impact the appearance and sensation of the area. Nerve damage: There's a risk of nerve damage, which can lead to decreased sensation or pain. Altered sensation: The procedure may alter the sensitivity of the clitoris, either increasing or decreasing it. Unsatisfactory results: In some cases, the results may not meet expectations or may even worsen the appearance or function of the clitoris. To minimize risks, it's crucial to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in performing clitoral hood reduction. Additionally, following post-operative care instructions carefully can help reduce the likelihood of complications.
