Pampering the Vaginoplasty Patient
It's infuriating, but a lot of people heap needless guilt on a woman seeking a vaginoplasty, as though she's attacking another person rather than taking control of her own body. As a result, when many women see a surgeon about a vaginoplasty, this guilt brings a lot of stress. That's why I'm a complete believer in doing everything necessary for the patient before the procedure to make her feel relaxed and confident … [Read more...]

Let me encourage you to make full use of online services if you're considering vaginoplasty, labiaplasty … [Read more...]
Loans for Your Labiaplasty or Vaginoplasty
With each passing month, it seems that labiaplasty and vaginoplasty get more and more popular. Unfortunately, because these are considered elective surgeries, it's difficult to get an insurance company to cover them.

Vaginoplasty: NOT Genital Mutilation
It's venting time: One of the things that perturbs me is the repeated attempt by critics of vaginoplasty to lump it in with genital mutilation that goes on in a lot of a third-world countries. It's nothing new that there are critics to this reconstructive procedure. After all, many people are squeamish about talking about female genitalia-much less, discussing the idea of modifying them for the woman's comfort. … [Read more...]
Media Does Not Prevent People From Having Plastic Surgery

Letter for Financial Assistance for Plastic Surgery
I won't lie to you. It can be quite difficult getting an insurance company to pay for either a labiaplasty or vaginoplasty operation.

My Gynecologist is my Son’s age
An interesting comment by a woman I was talking with. We were chatting about vaginoplasty after 60yo. After menopause some dryness occurs and the laxity of tissues is also prevalent in the vaginal and labial tissues. No woman likes that laxity in feel or look. This laxity also reduces libido or complete satisfaction from sexual intercourse. We were chatting about how lucky women are who live in the west part of … [Read more...]
