    How to Speak by Patrick Henry Winston

    I found this excellent post by @cyrilXBT on X (formerly Twitter). It is about how to present your thoughts, how to speak to an audience, how to communicate effectively and how to make an impact. I use all his advice.A MIT professor gave a 1-hour lecture in 2019 that has 18 million views.He died 5 months after recording it.It was his final gift to the world.Patrick Winston taught at MIT for 50 years.The smartest engineers on earth sat in his classroom.And he spent his last lecture teaching them the one skill their degrees never covered.How to speak.15 lessons that will change how you communicate forever:Never open with a joke. Your audience is not ready to laugh yet. Open with a promise of what they will know by the end.Your ideas are like your children. You are too close to them. What is obvious to you is invisible to everyone else. Explain the obvious.The 5-minute rule: the first 5 minutes of any talk determine whether people will listen for the next 55. Spend more time on your opening than anything else.Repeat your most important idea 3 times in 3 different ways. Once is never enough.Build a fence around your idea. Tell people what it is NOT before you tell them what it IS.Verbal punctuation. Pause. Let the idea land before moving to the next one.Ask questions nobody will answer. Then wait 7 seconds. The silence is not awkward. It is processing.Never read your slides. Your audience can read. They cannot listen and read simultaneously.Use the board not the slides. Writing forces you to slow down. Slowing down forces clarity.Inspire before you inform. Nobody learns from someone they are not inspired by.End with a contribution not a summary. Tell them what you gave them. Not what you said.Never say thank you at the end. It is weak. End with something that lands.Stories make ideas stick. Data makes ideas understood. You need both. In that order.The quality of your communication determines the quality of your ideas in the eyes of the world. Not the ideas themselves.Practice is not preparation. Practice IS the skill.Patrick Winston understood something most people spend their entire careers missing.Your ideas are only as powerful as your ability to transfer them into someone else’s mind.You can be the smartest person in the room and be completely invisible.Or you can master communication and make average ideas feel like breakthroughs.He chose to spend his last lecture teaching this.Watch it tonight.Follow @cyrilXBT on X for more lessons from the people who built the future.FOR THE SURGEONI built an online community of expert Cosmetic Gynecologists from around the world who you will be able to communicate with and pick their brains.

    Magnetic Chairs and Supramaximal Muscle Contractions

    Are we trusting science, or marketing?At the ISCG 2026 congress, I presented a critical analysis of one of the most promoted technologies in pelvic health today: magnetic field chairs.These devices claim to induce supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions and to be more effective than physiotherapy. Strong claims. Widely marketed. Repeated across scientific publications.So I asked a simple question:Where is the objective evidence?After reviewing more than 100 scientific articles, one fact became clear:none of them directly measured pelvic floor muscle contraction during the use of these devices.No objective quantification.No direct validation.Only assumptions.To go further, I conducted my own test. The result was clear: the contraction generated was approximately 10% of my maximum voluntary contraction.This is not a minor detail. It fundamentally challenges the core claim behind these technologies.This issue goes beyond one device or one field. We have seen similar patterns before, in cases such as Theranos, the opioid crisis, and surgical meshes in gynecology. Different contexts, same problem: claims ahead of evidence.Science without methodological rigor is not science.And publications without transparency do not produce reliable results.This presentation is not about rejecting innovation. It is about demanding evidence.Because patient safety cannot be based on assumptions.Dr. Laira RamosPhysiotherapist PhD in urogynecologySexologistwww.rpaeserie.comwww.perineo.infoPowerpoint SlidesThank you Laira Ramos for this excellent an unbiased review on the science of High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Waves.

    Carboxytherapy for Post Op Care for Gynecologic Cancer Surgery

    I have used Carboxytherapy for almost a decade to make sure my patients have the best skin before surgery and to have the best recovery after surgery. For the first time the problem of gynecologic oncology vulvar surgery healing is addressed specifically by Dr. Ramos. Eye opening results. My personal experience with CO2LiftV has been nothing short of amazing for GSM/Atrophy and healing. It is now used for plastic surgery cases for neck and body with recovery and tissue healing found to be quite remarkable. CO2Lift Pro for the face has also given outstanding cosmetic results and is widely used by the higher end dermatology practices. I will cover those topics and specifically areas in future posts. Here are my recent past newsletters covering CO2LIft V Carboxytherapy:* CO2LiftV with Jennifer Owens, October 27, 2025* CO2LiftV’s New Role for Post Op Healing, April 15, 2025* How CO2LiftV is Helping Patients, From a Panel of Urogynecologists, March 19, 2025* The Synergy of Energy & Biologics, December 8, 2024* CO2LiftV for Vaginal Restoration, March 14, 2023* How Vaginal Restoration with Carboxytherapy is Changing in 2023, January 25, 2023* Carboxytherapy for Gynecologic Conditions, April 25, 2022PowerpointsThank you Dr. Serrano for sharing your knowledge with my Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter audience.

    Clitoroplasties: Available Techniques

    As the use of Testosterone shots/pellets/gels/creams goes up so does the sheer number of the enlarged clitoris complaints also. It can be an aesthetic problem as well as functional dilemma. Dulce presents a marvelous presentation on this relatively recent phenomena and reviews the current available techniques used around the world to treat the problem surgically when conservative management is not enough. Stopping Testosterone alone often does not solve the problem. Pros and Cons, good and bad, and her personal reflections on the various techniques are covered. My personal technique is briefly introduced as are those of famed clitoral surgeons Amr Seifeldin, Tina Batalha, Ricardo Krause, Alvaro Ochoa, Ozgur Aglamis. At the Alinsod Institute in Arlington, Texas, we specialize in Feminine Intimate Surgeries such as those presented in this wonderful video. Thank you Dulce Henriquez, MD, and Marco Pelosi III, MD, for allowing me to share this information to my patients and medical professional audiences.Presented at the ISCG 2026 World Congress.

She has tackled the problem of clitoral enlargement with a great deal of zeal. It is the focus of her clinical practice and training programs. Her personal training background travels to Poland under the tutelage of Dr. Dawid Serafin, also a good friend of mine who has visited me at least twice when I was in my Laguna Beach practice years back. I love Dulce’s keen mind and openness to learning. I love the banter we share when we discuss techniques and surgical approaches. We have many educational adventures ahead.

    ISCG in Pictures: A Look Back

    CAVS (Congress on Aesthetic Vulvovaginal Surgery) and ISCG (International Society of Cosmetogynecology) grew up together for a decade starting about 20 years ago. The goals were to introduce and expand Aesthetic/Cosmetic Gynecology in the United States and Abroad. After CAVS had its last Congress in 2015, the two Brother Societies joined. Now all grown up, ISCG reigns supreme. Congratulations to the Pelosis for the perseverance, foresight, structure, sheer will and determination to help create our field of Cosmetic Gynecology. In fact, the term “Cosmetogynecology” was created by Team Pelosi.To those of you who are landing in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for our annual ISCG shindig, do enjoy the moments and be amazed at where we are now and what lies ahead. I cannot be there this year in person but will be there in spirit and in 3 videos. My grandson is about to born and that is the most important in life right today.Here is a look back at the years in pictures from my files. Just click and it will lead you to SmugMug.com. Download and print the picture you want of our shared history. Let me know what you think about the development of our specialty and what lies ahead.

    Peptide Therapy and Hormones for a Cosmetic Gynecology Practice

    At my Arlington practice, feminine wellness is never fragmented—it is fully integrated. I bring decades of surgical expertise in cosmetic and functional gynecology, while Amy Haddad, my NP, brings deep, specialized mastery in non-surgical wellness, Bioidentical Hormones, and now Peptide Therapy. Together, we have intentionally united our two worlds into one coordinated approach, allowing us to care for women comprehensively—before, during, and long after treatment—so you receive thoughtful, personalized care designed to support your health, healing, confidence, and longevity. To my Cosmetic Gynecology doctors out there consider adding this evolving opportunity to your Private Practice.I released a Lay Public version of this current Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter, on January 14, 2026, in my Feminine Wellness Newsletter, that you can use and forward to your patients: Peptide Therapy, Hormones, and Whole-Body Wellness.🧬 Introducing Advanced Peptide Therapy — A Personalized, Science-Driven Wellness PathwayFor years, many of you have offered and provided functional wellness through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Today, I want to introduce you to the next layer of optimized health: clinically guided peptide therapy, expertly managed. In my office the program is guided by Amy Haddad, NP, founder of Revique Medical Aesthetics and leader of our wellness protocols.Peptide therapy is not a fad — it’s a biologic signaling approach that helps bodies communicate internally. Peptides are short chains of amino acids. They are nature’s messengers for cellular repair, metabolism, growth, inflammation modulation, and tissue regeneration. When combined with hormone optimization, peptide therapy adds a powerful, personalized layer to overall health planning. (WebMD)Amy manages this side of the practice with thoughtfulness and scientific precision. As Medical Director, I oversee protocols and ensure each treatment plan integrates safely with our patient’s individual health goals. To my Cosmetic Gynecology Doctor and Nurse and PA audience, this is a fresh field to get into that can help your patients.Why Peptides Matter (In Plain Language)Peptides are biologic signaling molecules—short chains of amino acids that tell your cells how to function.As we age, those signals weaken. Healing slows. Sleep suffers. Fat becomes harder to lose. Muscle recovery declines. Skin quality changes. Energy dips.Peptide therapy is designed to restore or enhance those natural signals, helping your body work better, not artificially forcing it to do something it can’t.This is why peptides pair so powerfully with Bioidentical Hormone Replacement therapy (BHRT):* Hormones create the foundation* Peptides fine-tune cellular performance🔍 What Peptides Are: A Quick Science SnapshotPeptides send messages to your body’s cells to do something — like support healing, enhance growth hormone release, or improve metabolic function. Unlike supplements, peptide therapy works at physiologic levels under medical supervision. (WebMD)As we age (and under stress), our natural peptide signaling declines.Peptide therapy helps restore those signals, supporting:* Cellular repair and recovery* Metabolism and fat loss* Lean muscle and strength* Energy, stamina, and sleep quality* Cognitive clarity and mood* Skin, hair, and tissue health* Sexual wellness and vitality* Immune function and inflammation controlThis is not cosmetic fluff.This is biologic optimization.Here is Dr. Grant Pagdin summarizing what Peptides are and what they do:Peptide SummarHere is Dr. Taz going a bit deeper on how she uses Peptides:Dr. Taz on PeptideHere is Dr. Shelley Meyer with the most in-depth exploration of Peptides on YouTube:Deep Dive into PeptidesWho Is This For?Peptide therapy for your medical practice may be right for patients who:* Feel “off” despite doing all the right things* Struggle with stubborn weight or fatigue* Want better sleep and recovery* Are navigating perimenopause or menopause* Want to age with strength, clarity, and confidence* Want a proactive, science-based approach to longevityThese therapies are appropriate for women and men, and always guided by medical oversight. 🧠 Detailed Breakdown of Available PeptidesThe Peptides We Use — and What Each One Is Intended to DoBelow is a clear, patient-friendly explanation of the primary peptides available to us. Not everyone needs every peptide. Amy carefully selects protocols based on labs, symptoms, age, goals, and medical history. Most MDs and RNs are ignorant of these products like I was. Deep digging helped me find what is safe and works. BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound)Tissue healing, gut support, inflammation controlBPC-157 is best known for its ability to support soft-tissue repair—including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissue. It also plays a role in gut lining integrity, which is essential for immune health, nutrient absorption, and systemic inflammation control.Why it may be recommended:* Slow or incomplete healing* Chronic aches or tendon irritation* Gut sensitivity or inflammation* Recovery after procedures or injuryCJC-1295 + IpamorelinGrowth hormone stimulation, sleep, metabolism, body compositionThis peptide combination encourages your body to release more of its own natural growth hormone, following physiologic patterns rather than forcing hormone levels.Patients often notice improvements in:* Sleep quality* Energy and stamina* Lean muscle preservation* Fat metabolism* Recovery after activityWhy it may be recommended:* Age-related decline in energy or recovery* Difficulty maintaining muscle tone* Sleep disruption* Metabolic slowdownSermorelinGentle growth hormone support and vitalitySermorelin stimulates the pituitary gland to release growth hormone in a controlled, natural rhythm. It is often chosen for patients who want a more conservative or introductory approach to peptide therapy.Why it may be recommended:* Fatigue* Poor sleep* Early aging changes* Desire for improved vitality without aggressive protocolsGHK-Cu (Copper Peptide)Skin quality, collagen support, tissue healthGHK-Cu is widely used in regenerative and aesthetic medicine due to its ability to support collagen production, tissue remodeling, and skin integrity. It may be used systemically or locally, depending on goals.Why it may be recommended:* Skin aging or thinning* Post-procedure tissue support* Desire for improved skin quality and repairPT-141 (LIBIDO & SEXUAL FUNCTION)Known as the Viagra of peptides, unlike other sexual health treatments that target the vascular system, PT-141 works directly on the central nervous system to enhance sexual desire and arousal.* Widely recognized for its ability to improve libido and sexual satisfaction in both men and women.* Enhances Sexual Desire: Increases arousal and responsiveness through central nervous system activation.* Improves Erectile Function in Males* Supports Female Sexual Health: supports arousal, desire and sensation.* Rapid Onset: Research indicates effects within 30–60 minutes of administration.* Non-Hormonal Mechanism: Works independently of testosterone or estrogen levels* Helps augment my O-Shot and Clitoxin practice as well as my ThermiVa/RF/Plasmaporation services to improve sexual functionNAD + (ANTI-AGING)Is an essential coenzyme in regulating metabolism, longevity, DNA repair, and the immune system.* NAD+: Reduces the effects of aging at the telomere level* Boosts energy, sharpens focus at the cellular ATP level* Can improves sleep* Can aid in brightening skin* It’s a quick way to feel more alert, refreshed, and restored from the inside out.Dr. Ashley Froese Explains NAD+ and Methylene Blue. We recommend OTC Methylene Blue Gummies. NAD+ and Methylene BlueHow Peptide Therapy Is PersonalizedAmy does not “sell peptides.” She spends a great deal of time with the patient.She prescribes protocols and follows response with regular follow ups via Zoom or FaceTime or onsite appointments.Every patient evaluation includes:* Medical history* Symptom assessment* Lifestyle review* Hormone status and lab data (when appropriate)Protocols are adjusted over time based on:* Response* Tolerance* Goals* Life stage (perimenopause, menopause, high-stress periods, recovery phases)FAQ — Peptide TherapyAre peptides the same as hormones?No. Peptides signal your body to do something. Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate systems. They are complementary, not interchangeable.Are peptides steroids or performance drugs?No. Peptides are biologic signaling compounds, not anabolic steroids or synthetic stimulants.How are peptides administered?Most peptides are given via small subcutaneous injections using very fine needles. Some may be topical or compounded differently depending on indication.Do peptide injections hurt?Most patients describe them as minimal to painless, similar to insulin injections.How soon will patients feel results?This varies:* Sleep and energy improvements: often within weeks* Body composition changes: 1–3 months* Tissue repair and recovery: progressive over timePeptides are not instant fixes—they work biologically and cumulatively.Are peptides safe?When prescribed appropriately, sourced from reputable medical suppliers, and monitored by trained clinicians, peptides are generally well tolerated. This is why medical oversight matters. Cosmetic Gynecologists, nurses, PAs will need to bone up and learn this since it is not taught in traditional training programs. There are several quality courses out there. Do your research. Do you need labs first?Not always—but labs are often helpful, especially when peptides are combined with hormone therapy or metabolic goals.Can women use peptide therapy safely?Yes. Peptide therapy is widely used in women, particularly for:* Perimenopause and menopause support* Energy and sleep* Recovery and tissue health* Body composition and longevity* Not for those who are pregnant or planning to be pregnant soonDo men use these therapies too?Yes. Our peptide and hormone programs are available for both women and men.How long do patients stay on peptides?Some peptides are used in cycles. Others are used longer-term depending on goals and response. Amy guides this carefully. She recommends follow up intervals. Will peptides replace my hormone therapy?No. Peptides enhance hormone therapy—they do not replace it. Peptide therapy works best when it complements bioidentical hormone optimization. We handle both Bioidentical Hormones and Peptide Therapy. When hormones and peptides are used together, patients often experience:* More consistent energy* Better metabolic results* Improved sleep and recovery* Enhanced sexual health* Better long-term anti-aging outcomesI am very fortunate that my NP, Amy, is nationally respected for her work in Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) for women and men and able to manage this new Peptide part of my practice. Hormones set the foundation.Peptides fine-tune and amplify the results.A Personal Note from MeI want to be very clear about something important.I personally use peptide therapy before and after my surgical procedures.I do this to:* Optimize healing* Reduce inflammation* Support tissue recovery* Achieve the best possible outcomesI would not recommend these therapies—or integrate them into our practice—if I did not believe in their value and use them myself. I believe that Cosmetic Gynecologist should seriously consider Peptide Therapy as an integral part of Bioidentical Hormone Therapy. Amy and I work as a true team.Her expertise in peptide and hormone management complements my surgical work, allowing us to support patients before, during, and after treatment in a way that isolated care simply cannot.Learn More or Schedule a ConsultationPeptide therapy is offered through Revique Medical Aesthetics, located within our Arlington office.👉 https://www.reviquemedical.com/peptidetherapy🧠 How Providers can Tailors Peptides for a wide variety of patientsWe start with a 30-60 minute consultation to get to know the patient and get a complete medical history and exam as needed. We help define the patient’s functional goals, and evaluate their lifestyle — to personalize every protocol. That means two patients with similar complaints may receive different peptide combinations aimed specifically at their:* Fatigue and metabolic slowdown* Injury support and recovery* Skin and aging concerns* Body composition goals* Sleep and energy patterns* Long-term systemic regenerationThis isn’t one protocol fits all — it’s medicine shaped around the patient.🌼 Peptides Are Most Powerful When IntegratedWe’ve seen the best results when peptide therapy works with bioidentical hormone optimization. Hormones provide foundational balance. Peptides fine-tune and amplify the body’s signaling — improving recovery, systemic health, tissue quality, and metabolic resilience.That synergy is the reason we integrate these therapies under one roof — with my nurse practitioner managing peptide and hormone care, and my oversight as Medical Director ensuring safety, personalization, and results. Plus I do all the Feminine Surgeries you may need or desire! 📍 Final ThoughtsPeptide therapy isn’t a quick fix. It’s a medical strategy grounded in regenerative science, meant to help bodies optimize function, recovery, aging, and performance over time — with ethical oversight, measurable goals, and a supportive team guiding every step of the way. The patient will come to feel as cared for by a warm family of professionals.

    Historical Aspects of Labia Majoraplasty Surgery

    This textbook was published by Springer on October 2, 2025. Dr. Pablo Gonzales and I Co-Edited this very first textbook dedicated to all things Majora. I wrote Chapter 2 on the History of Labia Majora Surgery. Below is the full unedited version. Enjoy. My Christmas gift to my loyal Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter subscribers.Historical Aspects of Labia Majoraplasty SurgeryA Personal Perspective by Red Alinsod, MDLabia Majoraplasty has evolved significantly since its inception as a procedure for gynecologic malignancies to its current stage as a cosmetic procedure for beauty and a functional procedure for comfort. In this chapter I will trace the significant historical developments and focus on key contributions by pioneering surgeons. I will start and end with my personal story. You will notice that there is a common theme. The core is exposure to female genital cancer surgery.My first introduction to labial surgery was in 1985 as a 3rd year medical student at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. Kenneth Hancock, MD, gynecologic oncologist, was instrumental in helping me learn gynecologic anatomy and introduced me to vulvar surgeries. I was fascinated by radical vulvectomies I saw him teach his residents. Dr. Hancock was fresh out of his Gynecologic Oncology Fellowship at University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer and Tumor Institute (no MD Anderson Cancer Center). “Anderson” was well known for its aggressive and radical surgeries headed by Felix Rutledge, MD. He was known for Total Pelvic Exenterations (aka Exents) for advanced cervical and uterine cancer. Dr. Hancock became instrumental in writing a letter for me to obtain my residency at Loma Linda University Medical Center who had three Gynecologic Oncologists. Robert Wagner, MD, and Elden Keeney, MD, were graduates of MD Anderson. The Chairman of the department was Alan King, MD, also a Gynecologic Oncologist from Memorial Sloan Kettering Medical Center in New York. My path was set. I was going to be a Gynecologic Oncologist.In my third year of residency at Loma Linda I heard about competitive Fellowships that were going to be started by the two biggies: The Rutledge Fellowship by MD Anderson and the Galloway Fellowship by Memorial Sloan Kettering. With great support and encouragement by my Loma Linda faculty I was accepted to both. I chose to be a Rutledge Fellow, the first one ever, and off I went to Houston. That was 1988, the year L.A. Dodger Kirk Gibson hit that walk off home run against the Oakland As. I was post call and watching it when it happened that evening. My month at MD Anderson was an eye opener. I had never seen any program work their residents harder and with full support and dedication. Their stated goal was to build the finest surgeons with the best hands to be the boss and run departments. A bit intimidating for sure. I met Dr. Rutledge who was retired and on his 3rd wife but who came to all the meetings and even showed up for the endless number of Exents done by the Fellows. I was completely overwhelmed being among legends like David Gershenson, MD, Taylor Wharton, MD, Michelle Follen, MD, Mitchell Morris, MD.The Exenterations removed all the reproductive organs, bladder, anus, vulva, bowel, and we created pouches for urine and stool. There was an “Above Team” that took care of the abdominal hysterectomies and bowel and bladder surgery. There was a “Below Team” that did the complete vulvectomies and made neovaginas out of Gracilis muscle. I made sure I spent most of my time as part of the Below Team. I loved that they let this 3rd year resident do the Fellows work to recreate labias and vaginas from the inner thigh tissue. I was in my element. The staff was very encouraging and pushed me to pursue pelvic surgery. There was no urogynecology Fellowship at that time, so the next logical step was to see if infertility surgery was for me. So, I went to Yale to do a one-month elective in Reproductive Endocrinology in my senior year of residency. I was completely unimpressive. The Chairman at the time was the famous Alan DeCherney, MD. I worked exceptionally hard with the Fellows doing inseminations and IVF. I was in meetings almost every day doing Case Planning with the team headed by Dr. DeCherney. At the end of my rotation, I went up to Dr. DeCherney and thanked him for his mentorship and he said, “and who are you again?” I realized REI was not for me.As disappointed as I was for my lackluster performance at Yale’s REI division, I was blessed to meet one of the most modest and brilliant man I had ever encountered. E. Albert Reece, MD. He was a Maternal Fetal Medicine attending along with John Hobbins, MD. They are the giants who deciphered the causes and treatments for Gestational Diabetes. Dr. Reece was a devout Seventh Day Adventist Christian and taught me the ropes of Academia counseling me to ALWAYS make sure to thank the Attending Staff personally and with letters, so they do not forget me. He encouraged me not to be narrow minded and just automatically go to MD Anderson for my GYN ONC Fellowship, so he introduced me to Peter Schwartz, MD, and Setsuko Chambers, MD, who later offered me the one Fellowship position that was to start on July 1990. I accepted. Then disaster struck. The 1st Gulf War was about to heat up, so the Air Force told me I had to be on active duty and that my deferral for starting my Gynecologic Oncology Fellowship at Yale was rescinded. I was heartbroken notifying Dr. Schwartz that I was not able to be his 1990 Fellow. This disappointment turned into excitement as I served for four years at George and Nellis Air Force Base.I had the privilege to care for the women of the military and retirees. I ran the Gynecology Department and did hundreds of pelvic reconstruction cases. I was surprised to see a demand for labial reduction surgery even then in the early 1990s. So, I did them with both electrocautery and my CO2 laser. I lasered so many venereal wart lesions then. I started using the laser on the labia minora and majora not just for venereal warts. Air Force salaried soldiers and their wives, retirees, dependents, could not afford seeing a plastic surgeon in town so I was more than happy to do their surgeries labial surgeries and prolapse and tightening surgeries. In my eyes it was an easy surgery when compared to the exenterations I had been doing with the teams at MD Anderson.After my Air Force career, I entered private practice in Los Angeles and for a medium sized multi-specialty group. The field of urogynecology was starting to grow rapidly and this really was what I wanted to pursue. From 1994 to 2004 I worked with industry and designed slings and mesh repair kits and surgical tools. I did a few labiaplasty surgeries because it was not a thing back then. Urogynecology was starting to be “The Thing” that gave birth to unofficial Fellowship programs like Ostergaard’s at UC Irvine. Laparoscopy was booming with the rise of Marco Pelosi II and III, Harry Reich, John Miklos, C.Y. Liu, David Redwine. I saw gynecology change slowly from being a specialty for vaginal surgery to laparoscopic surgery. It made me more determined to try and retain and expand vaginal surgery and ensure it was not a lost art. I active taught for Caldera Medical, AMS, BARD, Ethicon. I taught the UCLA residents and eventually became the mesh repair clinical instructor for Harbor UCLA’s Urogynecology Fellowship from 1997 to 2005. I focused strictly on labial and vaginal surgeries.In 2000 I heard about David Matlock and reached out to him right after he completed his MBA at UC Irvine. He had just finished his MBA Group Project of launching the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of America. His group aced it. The project became his outline for successfully launching LVRIA. He graduated his first LVRIA class soon after his MBA graduation. I heard about it and was in awe that people would pay so much money for such a course. I saw him take labiaplasty surgery and vaginoplasty surgery into the mainstream with lots of headwinds and naysayers. To this day!I recently asked David why he even went back to school to get his MBA. He said“One thing I learned about an MD, MBA, is that people look at you differently in the business world. A very good friend of mine asked “Why do you need this? You’re already a good businessman,” and I told him I felt that I was holding myself back. That’s why I did it. In my interview with one of the professors, she was called away for a short period of time she had my essay in front of her and what I noticed was that she had highlighted, and I stated I seek knowledge. When I saw that I knew I was in. I have a whole lot of stories, my friend.”“Obviously, with any business, they’re going to be critics. You had to have a thick skin and push through it. The criticism was weird, was the lack of research. There was plenty of research there because of what some of these procedures were drawing from. I knew 100% that the research would come! Therefore, I pushed forward. I was able to grow this nationally in internationally. The media came to me, and I really understood that sex sells. I’ve been on everything. Television shows nationally and internationally, magazines, Vogue, Harper Bazar, Cosmopolitan, Nationally, Internationally, etc., etc. So, look where we are today! I knew that’s what would happen. Now it’s accepted and it’s International. F*** all those nay sayers in the beginning!”David ran the first Cosmetic Gynecology courses in history in Beverly Hills starting in 2000 and said this:“As you may or may not know I entered it as a business venture and first secured intellectual property with a patent attorney. I trained I’ve 436 surgeons in over 46 countries. I would train up to 10 at a time. I did world, European, and Asian, organized by the marking company. Get this we were able to charge $60k per doctor. Crazy money. But I liked at it as a business deal.”“Run those numbers serious money was made. Some people may have rejected for me commercializing it but that’s what I learned in my MBA program. That’s what the professors told us to do. Just like many grad students coming out and launching businesses.”“I only trained gynecologist, plastic surgeons, and urologist. That’s it. The doctor spent three days with me. One day of didactics, one day seeing me in surgery, performing the cases, and one day in the lab working on inanimate objects to simulate all the procedures. The support group putting all this together was a marketing company. A laser marketing company. It was a well-oiled machine.”“I started a movement, and I was right. Let alone that I publicized it nationally in internationally with free marketing for everyone. Actually, that’s why we are where we are, and I understood, and I told the media I need them, and they need me.”In the beginning, David taught Designer Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation (Labiaplasty Surgery) and Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation (Vaginoplasty, Perineoplasty). For the saggy labia majora, he initially used a wide perineoplasty technique to pull the labia majora downward to reduce the sag and draping effects but ultimately found this to be unsatisfactory. The problem of a tight introitis and potential for dyspareunia were present with this method. I asked him if his perineoplasty was his initial approach to a saggy labia majora and he said “that was one of the ways that I used to help reduce the majora. Ultimately, I didn’t get the results that I wanted, and I’ve stopped that approach. I’m sure I showed them (his Fellows) both. The best approach is the vertical elliptical/reduction.”“For the majora, I found that the best approach would be a midline vertical elliptical excision. You can do anything to reduce the length, thickness, decrease thickness with that incision. With a medial approach you can’t get that and then that has the potential to fish-mouth labia minora.”Jack Pardo, MD, from Chile, one of Dr. Matlock’s earliest graduates, remembers learning the midline vertical elliptical excision from Dr. Matlock. Jack’s grandfather and father were tailors and his exposure to gynecologic oncology made him secure about female genital anatomy. He did not do many vulvectomy surgeries early in his career but had the exposure to become confident in knowing where the vessels and nerves were located. To his recollection he did his own first solo “U.S. Football” shaped labia majora excision in 2009. Here are photos from Dr. Pardo’s landmark publication showing the medial incision going close to the labia minora and the pale white scar at the top of the labia majora ridge. Shown with permission (Fig. 1, 2):Marco Pelosi III gained valuable experience working with pelvic surgeons and gynecologic oncologists and plastic surgeons early on after residency. Again, the common thread seems to be the work with the Gynecologic Oncology specialists. Macro Pelosi III also remembers the Midline Vertical Elliptical excisions that removed a football shaped area of labia majora tissue on each side (Fig. 3). However, in Dr. Pardo’s recollection, the elliptical excision was horizontal going across the middle of the labia majora and when sutured “pinched” the majora to reduce the sagging. This technique morphed into a more aesthetically pleasing vertical elliptical excision (“more banana shaped and not symmetrical” per Pardo) and changed the horizontal scar across the labia minora to a vertical scar on each majora.An American shaped football excision of labia majora was developed by Pelosi and Pardo. The only problem was that now there was a railroad track scars on the middle of the labia majora. This was not a big problem in the days when women were not shaving everything off. However, when the days of the Brazilian waxing and laser hair removal became more prevalent Dr. Pardo, and his colleagues, modified their techniques further and placed the medial incision closer to the labia minora to hide the scar once healed. Doctors Jack Pardo, Vicente Sola, and Paolo Ricci submitted their landmark research on 60 Labia Majora Lifting patients on September 18, 2011, and it was published in The American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery in 2012. Patients were collected from May 2004 through June 2011. At that point in history, David held the surgical secrets close to the vest like the Chamberlains did with their obstetrics delivery forceps. I was much the same as David and did not publish any of my cosmetic gynecology techniques. Jack remembers telling David Matlock and John Miklos about an earlier publication regarding colpoperineoplasty on Acta Scandinavia that initially drew David Matlock’s and John Miklos’ disapproval of revealing secrets, but this turned out to be a positive attraction towards David’s LVRIA program.As comfort and experience grew with labiaplasty surgery (Minora and Majora and Clitoral Hood) Dr. Jack Pardo brought his surgeries into the office in Latin America and began teaching his surgery under local anesthesia. Dr. Michael Goodman had the same experience as he taught local anesthesia techniques worldwide for labial and vaginal cosmetic surgeries in 2010.Listen and watch my in-depth interviews of these GIANTS on my Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter:Jan 3, 2025: Walking Down Memory Lane with Marco Pelosi III: The Birth of ISCG:Jan 27, 2025: Jack Pardo, MD, and the Genesis of Cosmetic Gynecology in Latin AmericaAs David Matlock’s LVRIA empire was rapidly expanding in stature and influence in the early 2000s and my pelvic surgical world focused on design of products for use in pelvic reconstructive surgery. Many of these products would ultimately be instrumental in allowing for in-office awake No IV surgeries for cosmetic gynecology. My patented Alinsod Stand Surgical Table allowed still and calm hands for delicate labial surgery. My Alinsod Scissors and pickups and clams allowed for deep pelvic reach and placement of sutures. The Lone Star Retractor allowed for vision deep into the vagina. The slings and ultralightweight mesh and dermal allografts we brought out to market helped transform urogynecology. I was in Los Angeles at this time in my career (1994-2004) and watching how successfully David and his Fellows were changing the gynecology landscape. I was recruited as a urogynecologist to Laguna Beach, California, by South Coast Medical Center, who envisioned capturing the pelvic floor surgery business in the South Orange County region where the average age of women was in the mid 40s. My vision was to combine urogynecology with cosmetic gynecology and integrate the two. So, I moved and opened shop on January 5, 2005. I did the large majority of my labiaplasty and vaginoplasty surgeries in my office and started teaching and giving courses in both urogynecologic surgery and cosmetic gynecology. My big secret was the pudendal-levator block and labial blocks with microtumescent anesthesia I had developed that allowed deep pelvic floor dissections in the office. I kept all my labiaplasty and vaginoplasty secrets as well as my anesthesia techniques very private and only for my Alinsod Fellows. I chose not to publish at the time but to collect and share my thousands of Before and After pictures to those in search of surgical results. I had non-disclosures signed as did Dr. Matlock.I launched my Alinsod Institute for Aesthetic Vulvovaginal Surgery training program in 2006 and started the Congress of Aesthetic Vulvovaginal Surgery (CAVS) in 2006 in conjunction with the now defunct AAOCG (American Academy of Cosmetic Gynecology). The first lecture on labia majoraplasty was at that Congress in Las Vegas with the first live course in Laguna Beach in October 2007. Prominent surgeons I had the thrill to work with in those early years were Dr. Alexander Bader in 2008, Dr. Michael Goodman in 2010, Dr. Sejal Ajmera in 2012, Dr. Christine Hamori in 2013, Dr. Amr Seifeldin in 2015, Dr. Joao Jaenisch in 2015, Dr. John Miklos, and Dr. Robert Moore in 2017. They have taught, spoken, or have published on Labia Majoraplasty and have been the most influential surgeons in the field of labia majoraplasty. I thank them for their contributions. One significant publication of note is the May-June 2011 article written by Miklos and Moore titled Simultaneous Labia Minora and Majora Reduction: A Case Report, published in the Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology. Theirs is the first publication of a combination surgery involving the labia majora. I had taught this method in my Fellowship program and presented it in several Congresses showing dozens of videos I call the “Universal Approach.”My first labia majoraplasty were done in the office in 2005. Looking back at all my photos and videos and reading all the available materials published shows that my first photographed labia majoraplasty using the Curvilinear Labia Majoraplasty technique was on March 1, 2007. There are no sets of labia majoraplasty photos I can find that predate these photo sets. I believe these to be the very first non-cancer labia majoraplasty photos ever taken. My technical modification was to hug the medial incision line to be as close to the labia minora as possible to hide the scar but not remove so much tissue that a gaping introitus appears. Going short of this junction and leaving the scar line lateral to the minora-majora junction risked a visible white pale scar being visible. Here is that labia majoraplasty case and the photos I used to teach my Alinsod Fellows (Fig 4 – 10):The second set of labia majoraplasty pictures I took were 3 weeks later May 21, 2007, as I expanded my teaching sets as more and more surgeons were showing interest in my surgical preceptorship. Here is Case 2 that highlighted the tightening of the vagina, perineum, and labia majora (Fig. 11 – 17):On August 29, 2007, I took pictures of Case 3 that would turn out to be the most influential teaching set of Labia Majoraplasty photos that I have used around the world and on my lectures and website (Fig 18 – 22):Historically, only the skin of the labia majora is removed when doing a labia majoraplasty. When a large “Camel Toe” is present, liposuction has been tried to remove fat. It has not been very successful. In vulvar cancer surgery, the labia majora is often removed as well as the fat with dissection done all the way to the muscles beneath the pubic ramus. Lymph node dissection is performed in these cases. This surgery has been modified to be a cosmetic labia majora reduction that includes a great deal of normal but voluminous fat. The first case of Labia Majoraplasty with Fat Pad Reduction for cosmetic indications was performed in my Laguna Beach office on Feb 29, 2012 (Fig. 23 – 30): These life changing and confidence building surgeries are now offered and performed worldwide as the training programs add these procedures to their agendas. My online teaching platform called Gynflix (www.gynflix.com) was developed during the pandemic and launched in September of 2022 to served dozens of countries and all 50 United States (Fig. 30, 31). Its mission is to train surgeons to safely perform labial and vaginal surgeries as well as nonsurgical procedures. With the growing international demand for Cosmetic Gynecology and availability of very few high quality and professional preceptorship programs worldwide, I decided to share my 20+ years of experience and digital collection to a hungry and growing audience. Gynflix is the first online educational platform with 4K and HD videos and exquisite photography of core procedures, to improve the surgical standard, and reduce botched cases for my global audience. It has a secondary goal of educating Providers and the Lay Public, giving access to solutions, and to connecting the two.Red Alinsod, MDChapter written on January 31, 2025Let’s Stay ConnectedI’m so grateful for the opportunity to serve you, whether you’re a patient, a colleague, or someone curious about what we do.

    Radiosurgery 101 for 2026

    I released this video on my Pay Only Labiaplasty Newsletter on September 10, 2025. I also released a prior version on July 2, 2025 called “Radiosurgery for the Cosmetic Gynecologist: A Bried Tour Through Time.” I want to share the new updated version to you, my Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter members, to announce that Labiaplasty Newsletter will get a massive Face Lift and Content Upgrade and will now be called “Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty Newsletter” starting January 2026. A perfect newsletter for the surgically inclined that now will include all surgical topics relating to Cosmetic Gynecology. A perfect kissing cousin for my Gynflix.com online e-Learning platform. More news coming. Stay tuned right here! Radiosurgery 101 for 2026: The Soniquence DifferenceOne of the most frequent questions I get is “Dr. Alinsod how do you do your labiaplasty surgeries? Do you use lasers or radiofrequency, scissors or knives?” I have this discussion quite a bit with surgeons from around the world. I cover this on my practice website (www.alinsodinstitute.com) and have lots of photos and videos. I’ve never really covered it for the Lay Public so I created this video that shows what radio frequency can do for Cosmetic Gynecology and why I use it for the right person. I gear this for non-medical people who wondered how this surgery is done in my office, awake, with no IV, under local anesthesia.I first covered Radiosurgery 101 for the Cosmetic Surgeon on May 30, 2022. Go see that 15 min video if you have not already done so. An update and full length version on what radiosurgery can do for labiaplasties, botched surgeries, clitoral hood surgeries, anal skin tags was released on July 2, 2025 on my Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter called Radiosurgery for the Cosmetic Gynecologist: A Brief Tour Through Time. Today’s newest video is an update with an extra section at the end that instroduces my just released Soniquence A1 Bipolar forceps. Enjoy the learning. Let me know what you think as a lay person seeing this. Does it help explain how labiaplasties are done with radio waves?Red Alinsod, MD ([email protected])www.alinsodinstitute.comwww.gynflix.comIntroducing my new Arlington, Texas, PracticeDear Friends, Patients, and Colleagues,I’m thrilled to share some exciting news with you!

    Secretomes in Aesthetic and Regenerative Medicine

    Let me tell you a story.I fly into London, take a ride to Cambridge. Many of the top leaders in the field of regenerative medicine are present for this special World Congress. One particular gentleman stands out and appears to be worshiped and adored by the Europeans. Patrick Treacy, MD. He presents his brilliant lecture and I am supremely impressed. Listen to his talk and learn. I sure did. Thanks for sharing your video Patrick.About Patrick TreacyDr. Patrick Treacy, a globally renowned Irish aesthetic physician, Visiting Professor of Dermatology at Isra University (Pakistan), and Honorary Fellow of the Australian College of Cosmetic Surgery and Medicine, is a pioneer in regenerative aesthetics. Voted “Top Aesthetic Doctor in the World 2019” and honored with the World Regenerative Medicine Innovation Award in 2025 for his work in PRP, stem cells, and secretomes, Dr. Treacy frequently lectures on innovative therapies at international conferences. His presentations emphasize evidence-based advancements in skin rejuvenation, wound healing, and longevity medicine, often integrating his clinical experience from treating high-profile patients.Key Lectures on SecretomesDr. Treacy’s talk positions secretomes as a “cell-free” evolution in regenerative medicine, building on his foundational work in PRP and hyaluronidase protocols. Recent lectures include:“Secretomes – The New Kid on the Block” (2025): Delivered as a keynote at the 46th Congress of the Italian Society of Aesthetic Medicine (SIME) in Rome (May 2025) and the 2nd International Regenerative & Aesthetic Conference (IRAC) in Dubai (November 2025). A notable video of this lecture was filmed at the FACE CAMP Congress Bodrum 2025, where he explored secretomes as a breakthrough for tissue repair, contrasting them with traditional stem cell therapies. He highlighted their role in addressing complications like filler-induced blindness, tying into his HELPIR technique for vascular occlusion reversal.Expert Panellist on Secretomes (2025): At the World Scientific Conference on Regenerative Medicine at King’s College, Cambridge (August 2025), Dr Treacy discussed “Secretomes or Exosomes – What’s the Difference?” alongside panels on bovine colostrum secretomes for skin and intimate wellness. He was awarded for pioneering non-invasive solutions in hair restoration and anti-aging.Broader Context in Regenerative Sessions: In events like AMWC Americas 2026 (Miami, February 2026), where he will present on “The Pathways of Ageing,” and earlier forums (e.g., MyFaceMyBody Awards), he weaves secretomes into discussions on exosomes, polynucleotides, and biostimulatory treatments. His lectures often reference his research awards from the British College of Aesthetic Medicine (2017) and AIDA Trophy (2017) for complication protocols.These talks are interactive, featuring case studies from his Ailesbury Clinics (Dublin, Cork, London), where secretome-based therapies have achieved high patient satisfaction (80%+ in trials for skin regeneration). The FACE CAMP Congress Bodrum 2025 video captures his engaging style, blending art, ethics, and data to appeal to clinicians, researchers, and patients.How Secretomes Function in Cell RegenerationSecretomes are the complete repertoires of bioactive molecules secreted by cells into the extracellular environment, including growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, lipids, and extracellular vesicles (EVs, such as exosomes). In regenerative contexts—especially mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived secretomes—they mediate paracrine signaling, where secreted factors influence nearby cells without direct cell-to-cell contact. Core Mechanisms:Paracrine/Autocrine Effects: Secretomes promote cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation by activating pathways like PI3K/Akt for survival and VEGF for angiogenesis. For example, factors like TGF-β1, HGF, and BDNF reduce apoptosis and enhance matrix remodeling.Immunomodulation: They suppress inflammation (e.g., via IL-10 and PGE2) while recruiting endogenous stem cells to injury sites, fostering a pro-regenerative microenvironment.Tissue-Specific Repair: In skin/wound healing, secretomes from adipose-derived MSCs (ADSCs) or umbilical cord MSCs boost collagen synthesis, re-epithelialization, and neovascularization. Studies show they increase granulation tissue formation by 40-50% in animal models.Production: Harvested from conditioned media (CM) after culturing MSCs in serum-free conditions, secretomes can be concentrated (e.g., via ultrafiltration) for topical, injectable, or systemic delivery.Dr. Treacy often illustrates this with analogies in his FACE CAMP Bodrum 2025 video: secretomes act like “messengers” in a symphony, coordinating repair without the “orchestra” (cells) needing to relocate.Advantages of Secretomes Over Stem Cells in Cell Regeneration. Dr. Treacy champions secretomes as a safer, more scalable alternative to stem cell transplantation, aligning with global research trends (e.g., the 2025 Wound Repair and Regeneration review). While stem cells offer direct engraftment (low survival post-transplant: Key advantages:Safety: No risk of tumor formation, ectopic differentiation, or immune rejection (acellular). GMP-compliant production minimizes contamination.Potential for oncogenicity, graft-vs-host disease, or low engraftment. Requires HLA matching.“Cell-free therapy avoids ethical hurdles and side effects seen in early stem cell trials—perfect for aesthetic safety.”Stability & StorageShelf-stable (lyophilized: months/years at -80°C); easy to standardize and transport.Viable cells need cryopreservation; short shelf life (hours-days post-thaw).“Secretomes enable off-the-shelf use, like hyaluronidase for emergencies—shown live in Bodrum.”EfficacyEquivalent or superior paracrine effects (e.g., 30-50% faster wound closure in trials); tunable via culture conditions (hypoxia boosts VEGF).Relies on survival/differentiation; variable results due to heterogeneity.“Secretomes amplify native repair—e.g., bovine colostrum variants for intimate wellness outperform cell grafts in sustainability.”Scalability/CostParallel production (one cell line yields liters of CM); lower regulatory barriers (no live cells). Cost: $500-2000/dose vs. $10,000+ for cells.Labor-intensive expansion; high failure rates in scaling.Clinical TranslationFaster trials (e.g., Phase II for skin regeneration); approved derivatives (e.g., exosome isolates) in EU/Asia.Slower FDA/EMA approval due to variability; ethical concerns.“From Bodrum to Rome: Secretomes bridge aesthetics and longevity without stem cell debates.”Parallel trials (e.g., 2023 IJMS) confirm secretomes match stem cell outcomes in 70-80% of models for muscle, bone, and neural repair, with 2x faster recovery in some cases. In the FACE CAMP Bodrum 2025 video, Dr. Treacy notes their edge in aesthetics: “Secretomes restore without ‘overfilling’—ideal for natural rejuvenation.”Future Outlook: Dr. Treacy predicts secretomes will dominate by 2030, integrated with AI diagnostics for personalized dosing.By Patrick Treacy, written 02:05 PM IST on Thursday, October 16, 2025.Alinsod Institute Has Moved to Arlington, Texas!Dear Friends, Patients, and Colleagues,I’m thrilled to share some exciting news with you!

    Barbie for Thee?

    This was first released on September 19, 2025, on my Feminine Wellness Newsletter created for the Lay Public. This is the material I share with patients on consults to try and guide them into the right labiaplasty choices for their anatomy. Now I want to share this with you, the Medical Professional and Cosmetic Gynecologist. Many of you have seen and heard me talk about this around the world for the past 20 years. I hope you enjoy this and I hope it helps your practice. This Newsletter edition is the very last freebie after 3+ years. It was launched on April 17, 2022 and has grown to over 130,000 subscribers. Future editions will only be available to paying subscribers. Enjoy and subscribe. It is cheap at only $10 a month.First of all, click the link and go watch my April 17, 2024 video “The Barbie Look Labiaplasty for the Lay Public” to get a well rounded education on my labiaplasty techniques I have taught worldwide since 2005. It is by far the BEST Labiaplasty Education video for the general and lay public. It is 32 minutes long, detailed, and excellent. That newsletter has all the PowerPoint slides shown and explained.I wrote this over a year and a half ago and it still applies today:“Finally finished! Only took me 20 years to get all this content together and compacted into 30 minutes. My life’s work. My treatise on labiaplasty surgery. I dedicate this to all the women out there who have suffered pain and discomfort, humiliation and shame, embarrassment and ridicule. Quit listening to the naysayers that you just have to live with it. You have lots of choices now. Second chances are a blessing. Go grab it!This Newsletter dives into who the best candidates are for my Barbie Look Labiaplasty. Barbie Look is NOT for everyone.”Exploring Labiaplasty Techniques: The Perfect Fit for Your Anatomy and DesiresWelcome to this special edition of my Feminine Wellness Newsletter, where I dive into the world of labiaplasty choices. I invented the Barbie Look and Hybrid Look Labiaplasty in Laguna Beach, California, in 2005, and have taught my methods globally, with emphasis on precision radiofrequency surgery for minimal scarring and optimal results.In this issue, we’ll break down how to choose the right labiaplasty technique based on your unique anatomy (like the size, shape, and pigmentation of your labia minora and majora) and personal desires (whether you want a dramatic change, natural preservation, or something in between). We’ll start with the Big Picture: Linear Excision versus Wedge Excision. Then, we’ll zoom in on linear excision options, including my signature looks—Barbie, Hybrid, and Simple Trim—to help you decide what’s best for you. Remember, this is educational content; always consult a Cosmetic Gynecology Specific Board-Certified Specialist for personalized advice.Step 1: Linear Excision vs. Wedge Excision—Which Base Technique Fits Your Needs?Labiaplasty primarily addresses the labia minora (inner lips), which can become enlarged due to genetics, hormones, childbirth, or aging, causing discomfort during activities like exercise, sex, or wearing tight clothing. The two main techniques are Linear Excision (also called Trim) and Wedge Excision. Both aim to reduce length, create symmetry, and tuck the labia minora within the labia majora (outer lips), but they differ in approach, outcomes, and ideal candidates.Linear Excision (Trim Technique): The Straightforward Edge RemoverThis method involves a curved or straight incision along the outer edge of the labia minora to trim away excess tissue, often following the natural contour for a “Curvilinear” result. It’s like sculpting the edges to shorten and thin the labia while removing pigmented or thickened borders. I use radiofrequency energy in most cases for precise cutting and sealing, minimize bleeding, swelling, and scarring—key for my advanced variants.Pros:- Safer healing with lower risk of wound separation or Swiss Cheese Holes- Excellent for addressing pigmentation issues, as it removes the darker outer edges, resulting in uniform, lighter-colored labia.- Highly customizable for asymmetry—surgeons can adjust the amount removed on each side independently. So much more choice and options on how much to remove.- Versatile for dramatic or subtle changes, making it ideal for aesthetic goals like a “petite” or streamlined look.Cons:- The straight or curved edge may look less “natural” if not done artistically and not following the natural curves of the labia potentially creating a more uniform but less contoured appearance. It can look “Too Plastic.”- Scalloped edges if sutured too tightly- In most cases, Linear Excision will require a companion clitoral hood reduction if the hood appears prominent post-surgery. You have to avoid the “Top Heavy” look that can occur of you leave the top clitoral hood alone and then dramatically trim down the middle and bottom labia minora.Who Should Get Linear Excision?Opt for this if your anatomy includes uneven pigmentation, thickened edges, or significant asymmetry that needs targeted removal. It’s best for patients desiring a cleaner, more uniform aesthetic—think women who want to eliminate dark borders or achieve a “hidden” look without preserving the original edge texture. Functionally, it’s great for those with irritation from rubbing or pulling, especially if you prioritize quicker recovery and minimal complications. Athletes or active individuals often favor it for its reliability in high-movement lifestyles. Swimmers, bikers, horseback riders, volleyball and tennis players are examples. If your labia majora are fuller, linear excision ensures the minora stay tucked away seamlessly. The chance of having Swiss Cheese Holes is less than 1%.Wedge Excision: The Natural Contour PreserverThis technique removes a V- or wedge-shaped piece of tissue from the widest part of the labia minora, then stitches the edges together to shorten without altering the outer border. It can be more complex and involving advanced modifications like Z-plasty for better blood flow and reduced tension. Variants include Central Wedge Excision, Superior and Inferior Wedge Excision.Pros:- Preserves the natural ruffled edge, color, and contour of the labia, leading to a more “original” appearance that blends seamlessly with the clitoral hood. In my personal practice and in clinical research done by highly respected friends of mine, only a very small percent of women actually want to keep that ruffled and dark edge. Only about 4-6% of women wanting labiaplasty want to keep the original edges. About 94-96% of them want those darker edges removed and made smoother. This is the perfect choice for women who want to keep that original edge appearance.- Scarring can be less visible once healed in many but some may continue to have a pale white line at the site of suturing.- Effective for reducing length without changing the labia’s overall texture, can be ideal for subtle functional improvements. Most wanting labiaplasty are not looking for a subtle change and seek more dramatic changes.Cons:- Higher Tension on the closure site pulling the wedge edges apart, with a significant risk of dehiscence (wound reopening), Pac Man Breakdown, or Swiss Cheese Holes. In the very best of hands this wound breakdown rate averages 10-20%. Compare that to less than 1% Swiss Cheese holes and less than 5% dehiscence when the Linear Labiaplasty is done.- Doesn’t address pigmentation well—if your edges are dark or irregular, they remain. You keep those dark and ruffled or irregular edges.- Can be more technically demanding, so outcomes vary by surgeon experience; poor execution can lead to bunching or narrowing or dehiscence and Swiss Cheese Holes. The dreaded Pack Man Look happens 10-20% of the time.Who Should Get Wedge Excision?This is ideal if your anatomy features a naturally pretty edge you want to keep, with hypertrophy mainly in the inner width rather than the borders. Choose it if your desires lean toward maximal preservation of your innate look—women who value a “seamless, untouched” aesthetic or have minimal pigmentation concerns. It’s particularly suited for those with pain from labial hypertrophy but who prioritize natural contours over color uniformity. Avoid it if you have very redundant tissue, as it may not remove enough for dramatic results.Key Decision Factors: Anatomy (e.g., edge quality, majora fullness) and desires (dramatic vs. natural) guide the choice. A 2021 survey showed curvilinear (trim variant) as the most common (52.7%), followed by wedge (36.1%), reflecting its versatility. In speaking with the most renown and exceptional labiaplasty surgeons around the world (primarily Gynecologists) it is closer to 90% Curvilinear Labiaplasty versus Wedge Labiaplasty. I prefer linear/curvilinear techniques for fewer complications, and I avoid wedge techniques altogether. I just do not want problems.Step 2: Within Linear Excision—My Alinsod Looks: Barbie, Hybrid, or Simple Trim?If linear excision aligns with your needs, my radiofrequency-enhanced curvilinear approach offers refined sub-techniques. These vary by how much tissue is removed, balancing aesthetics, function, and reversibility. All use precise energy to cut and cauterize, reducing downtime and results in speedy recoveries and fewer complications.The Barbie Look: The Ultimate Tucked-Away TransformationI invented this in 2005. This aggressive linear excision removes *all or nearly all* of the labia minora, creating a smooth and straight vertical line with no protruding inner lips, even when legs are apart. It often pairs with clitoral hood reduction for a fully streamlined vulva.Where did this “Barbie Look” terminology come from? It was from my patient in the San Fernando Valley who came up to me and announced “Dr. Alinsod, I want to look like Barbie!” I said to her “Barbie has no labia!” She said “EXACTLY!!!” The Barbie Look was born. Don’t blame me for the lay public terminology because it came from my lay public patient who visualized a certain look and gave it a certain name. And it went around the world like a wildfire. I did lots of interviews for magazines and got invited around the world for me to show what in the world this Barbie and Hybrid stuff is all about. Thank you San Fernando Valley!Who Should Get the Barbie Look?Anatomy: Best for those with sufficient labia majora volume to fully cover the vaginal opening post-removal—flat or deflated majora might leave you feeling exposed. Ideal if your minora are extremely elongated (e.g., >4-5 cm) or asymmetrical beyond correction and you have labia majora that have enough fat to protrude out and does not lie flat. If you have a very flat labia majora then a Hybrid or Rim may be better for cosmesis.Desires: Women seeking zero maintenance—no more adjusting during sports, sex, or swimsuits. Popular among athletes, Olympians, and those prioritizing ultimate comfort and a “hidden” aesthetic. It’s irreversible, so only for the fully committed; not for the indecisive. If psychological factors like embarrassment or hygiene issues dominate, this delivers confidence-boosting minimalism. It has very high satisfaction rates in my practice (most requested there). Hybrid Looks is a close second depending on the month and whether the patient is from the West Coast or East Coast. Definitely more of a West Coast Look. Southern California Beaches, specifically Laguna and Newport Beach, inspired the Barbie and Hybrid Looks.The Hybrid Look: The Balanced Middle GroundMy “middle road” removes most of the labia minora but leaves a small remnant, positioned below the majora level for a tucked-in effect. It’s nearly indistinguishable from the Barbie Look externally but retains subtle inner structure. It is a gorgeous look and made for those who are not so sure about the All In Barbie Look. There is an understanding that any Rim or Hybrid Look can always be made into a Barbie Look in the future when tastes or situation changes.Who Should Get the Hybrid Look?Anatomy: Suited for moderate-to-severe hypertrophy where full removal isn’t needed or wanted, but significant reduction is. Works well with average majora fullness, as the remnant provides a natural buffer without protrusion and reduces the chance of visualization of the internal vagina. There is some coverage still present that a Barbie Look may expose. Great for asymmetries, as the linear cut allows precise tailoring.Desires: Patients wanting Barbie-like smoothness (no tugging or visibility) but with a touch more “naturalness” for sensation or aesthetics. My personal favorite—it’s less extreme, easier to adjust if needed, and appeals to those hesitant about full removal but craving the tucked comfort. Ideal for everyday women dealing with irritation during exercise or intimacy, seeking a competitive alternative to Barbie without full commitment. Healing mirrors Barbie: quick and low-pain with radiofrequency. I do almost all my labiaplasty surgeries in the office under local anesthesia. 99+%.The Simple Trim Look (Rim or Sculpted Linear): The Conservative Edge RefinerThis minimal linear excision trims only the protruding edges, preserving most of the labia minora’s length and shape while removing dark or irregular borders for a refined rim. I get few requests for this surgery. Most want more tissue removed.Should Get the Simple Trim Look?Anatomy: Perfect for mild elongation or just edge irregularities—labia that are slightly longer than desired but not overly hypertrophic. Best when majora are not overly full and even flat, as it maintains proportion without aggressive shortening. Avoid if tissue is very thick, as it may not suffice. This does not really debulk the area like a Hybrid and Barbie Look Labiaplasty can.Desires: Women across ages wanting a subtle, natural enhancement—think removing pigmentation for even tone without altering overall size. Least requested in specialized practices like mine, but ideal for those prioritizing preservation over transformation, like first-timers or those with minimal symptoms. It addresses functional tweaks (e.g., less chafing) while keeping a “real” look, with the shortest recovery among options.Final Thoughts: Your Anatomy + Desires = The Right ChoiceChoosing a labiaplasty technique is deeply personal—start with a consultation with me or your chosen surgeon to assess your labia’s size and shape, skin quality, and majora support. Linear excision shines for customization and speed, especially the looks I developed: Barbie for bold minimalism, Hybrid for balanced elegance, and Simple Trim for gentle refinement. Wedge suits naturalists. Whichever path, seek surgeons experienced in your specific look. I personally do not do Wedge Labiaplasty anymore because of the higher complication rate and I am more than happy to refer you to the best Wedge Labiaplasty Surgeons I know. I just do not want 2 out of 10 patients to have problems and regrets when a Wedge is done. I would rather have zero out of 10 breakdown. My personal favorites are definitely Barbie and Hybrid Labiaplasties with Clitoral Hood Reductions that are tailored and personalized and infinitely adjustable. A perineoplasty is sometimes needed to complete the makeover down under.Choose Wisely! If you have questions, drop us a line. Until next time, embrace your body.

    The Real Reason FIGO Fears Cosmetic Gynecology/Female Genital Cosmetic Surgery (FGCS)

    Jun 18, 2025 Response to the June 16, 2025 FIGO Publication🚨 They say it’s unethical. They say it lacks evidence. But what they’re really afraid of… is women choosing for themselves. In this explosive takedown of FIGO’s latest position on Female Genital Cosmetic Surgery (FGCS), Dr. Marco A. Pelosi III — master surgeon and global educator — exposes the hypocrisy, bias, and selective outrage behind the medical establishment's attacks on labiaplasty and other aesthetic gynecologic procedures. 🎯 Why does FIGO stay silent on breast implants and Botox, but condemn cosmetic vaginal surgery? 🎯 Is this about patient safety... or preserving power? 🎯 What’s the real agenda behind the “no medical indication” excuse? 🧠 What You’ll Learn in This Video: * The truth behind FIGO’s flawed ethics and medical claims * Why FGCS is held to a double standard in global medicine * The real-world evidence of safety, satisfaction, and autonomy * How the field of cosmetic gynecology has evolved over 25+ years * What critics won’t say about surgical training, consent, and outcomes 📚 Referenced Topics: Labiaplasty • Vaginal Rejuvenation • Cosmetic Gynecology • Surgical Autonomy • FGCS Ethics • FIGO Rebuttal • Informed Consent • Medical Paternalism • Women’s Health Rights 💡 Subscribe to learn what the mainstream won’t tell you. 🔔 Turn on notifications to get more unfiltered insights from the front lines of modern aesthetic surgery. 🔗 Learn more: https://www.iscgmedia.com 📩 For professional training and course info: [email protected] concerns in female cosmetic genital surgeryFIGO 16 June 2025 AbstractCosmetic genital surgeries in women—such as labiaplasty, clitoral hood reduction, hymenoplasty, vaginoplasty, and laser-based procedures—have seen a notable rise in popularity in recent years. In response, the FIGO Committee for Ethical Aspects of Human Reproduction and Women's Health has published a new statement in the International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics (IJGO), raising serious ethical, medical and societal concerns. The committee calls for increased caution and better-informed patient care.Recommendations include:* Ensuring patients understand that cosmetic genital procedures are not medically indicated.* Educating about natural variations in genital anatomy.* Screening for underlying psychological issues such as body dysmorphic disorder.* Avoiding surgical interventions in adolescents unless thoroughly justified.* Promoting transparency in marketing and discouraging misleading claims.“Cosmetic genital procedures are ethically permissible if four ethical criteria outlined by FIGO are met; (1), it is not medically necessary, (2), there is evidence-based clinical validation proving the procedure’s safety and effectiveness, (3), risks and complications should be minimised, (4), the patient must provide informed and voluntary consent.Due to the lack of strong evidence supporting the claim that cosmetic genital surgery is safe and effective, the second criterion is not fulfilled. Consequently, FIGO asserts that it is ethically inappropriate for obstetrician gynaecologists to recommend, perform or refer patients for these procedures."Dr Lourdes Capito, Lead AuthorThe statement emphasises that these procedures are not medically necessary and often carry risks including infection, dissatisfaction with outcomes and changes in sexual function. Key ethical principles such as autonomy, non-maleficence and justice are also explored in depth. While respecting a woman's right to make decisions about her body is vital, the paper highlights how societal pressures can distort autonomous decision-making. The potential for physical harm, psychological distress and widened health disparities—especially among adolescents—requires cautious, ethical consideration.This comprehensive review urges clinicians to prioritise evidence-based care, accurate information, and ethical responsibility over commercial interests. By doing so, healthcare professionals can help women make truly informed decisions while protecting their physical and psychological well-being.Full TextKnowledge in Field: A typical trajectory GYNFLIX COMMUNITY HAS LAUNCHED!I built an online community of expert Cosmetic Gynecologists from around the world who you will be able to communicate with and pick their brains.

    Radiosurgery for the Cosmetic Gynecologist: A Brief Tour Through Time

    I last covered Radiosurgery 101 for the Cosmetic Surgeon on May 30, 2022. Go see that 15 min video if you have not already done so. This is an update and full length version on what radio surgery can do for labiaplasties, botched surgeries, clitoral hood surgeries, anal skin tags. The video Below shows specifically Soniquence Radiosurgery in action. Soniquence is the rebirth of Ellman International. I first worked with Ellman in 2005 and taught worldwide to advance radiosurgery. Cynosure acquired them and buried them deep in their closet and it faded in use and memory. Very sad. The original brains behind Ellman then created Soniquence to advanced radiosurgery once more. Soniquence was able to get Ellman back from Cynosure and now they live under one umbrella. Soniquence will do the repairs, provide disposables, and support the Ellman brand. Top notch company with the most precise surgical tool made. Check out the precision and power of Soniquence RF:SONIQUENCE RF FOR COSMETIC GYNECOLOGYHere is a link to Gynflix to watch the Full-Length Soniquence Videos: GYNFLIXAIAVS Fellows Video 219 Live Narrated Perineoplasty w Hybrid LabiaplastyFellows Video 201 LN Vagino Perineoplasty Barbie Lab Clit Hood Jett Plasma, O-ShotBackground history on RadiosurgeryI started using a radio surgical device called the Ellman Surgitron with a fine Hair Tip back in 2005. Super precise with lateral thermal spread measured in microns (10-20 microns). I taught many Fellows at Laguna Beach for almost 20 years. Around 2009 Ellman’s newest upgrade became known as “Pelleve.” This device had the advantage of being able to do non-surgical tightening of tissues. It was meant for face and body but of course I used it on the labia! I even designed a vaginal probe for it. Here is my prototype no one has seen before. It was meant to go inside the vagina:Here is video of me doing a Pelleve demonstration at a Congress in Las Vegas in 2012:Of course I was more well known for labial surgery so I focused on applications for labiaplasty and vaginoplasty and clitoral hood and anal skin tag surgeries. I taught and promoted Ellman’s Next Generation Pelleve: The Beginning of the End for EllmanIn 2009 Ellman and I had agreed to proceed to create the first intravaginal probe for radiofrequency application. Unfortunately Ellman chose to purchase Sandstone Lasers and it did not go well. Ellman was forced to eventually sell itself to Cynosure, the Big Gorilla at the time. Cynosure had a different culture and relationships developed over decades by Ellman were lost. I stopped working with this version of Ellman. Ellman became a product lost in the vast array of devices that Cynosure managed. Cynosure would then sell itself to another buyer and Ellman was cast off. You could not get service, supplies, disposables. It was very stressful for Ellman users for a couple of years from about 2019 to 2021. ENTER SONIQUENCE!!!In 2021 I got a call from Bill Bernstein. He used to run the Ellman division for Ellman International then Cynosure. Little did I know that a new company named Soniquence had been created by Alan Ellman, son of the founder of Ellman International. He brought back the old team and placed Bill as VP! Bill sent me the newest SmoothWave i200 to try. The big selling point was the much improved Turbo Mode on the Bipolar settings that dramatically improved the hemostatic abilities of the device. RF has long been known to be poor at hemostasis and now with the improved Bipolar energies it had overcome those issues! I tried it for several months, did tons of cases, and I am solidly on board! They focused on surgery and stopped trying to be a Swiss Army knife. No more non-surgical portion. I became a Soniquence believer because of their dedication to the surgical arts and their excellent customer support. Soniquence has dedicated itself to be the Tool of Choice for Cosmetic Gynecology and labiaplasty surgery. Various precision bipolar designs will be out soon to make surgery simpler. I will let you know when it arrives and is ready for sale.Soniquence at The Aesthetic ShowJust Having a Little Fun with Dian!!!GYNFLIX COMMUNITY HAS LAUNCHED!I built an online community of expert Cosmetic Gynecologists from around the world who you will be able to communicate with and pick their brains.

    Low Level Light Lasers for Gynecologic Conditions Presented at ISCG 2025

    It was a perfect week for me. Flew in from Peru (got to visit Machupichu), moved into my new office in Arlington, Texas, jumped into my first surgeries (No IV, awake, and under local anesthesia) in my new and just finished surgical suite, and spent precious time with Team Erchonia Laser from South Carolina! Erchonia Founder Steve Shanks and Erchonia Clinical Affairs Manager Travis Sammons both flew for my training in their newest device using Green and Purple/Blue laser for reducing skin laxity and fat melting. They also trained me on their newest “405” laser using Red and Purple/Blue light targeting pain and spasms and tissue regeneration. We also caught up on our FDA research application for the use of LLLL for a variety of gynecologic conditions Erchonia has agreed to pursue with my guidance. Alinsod Institute is a Clinical Research location. Dian (my Medical Assistant and Office Manager) and I are were honored by Steve and Travis’ visit. Thank you Team Erchonia.I flew to Erchonia’s South Carolina headquarters in Greenville last year and met the finest team of scientists and LLLL experts. We discussed gynecologic applications and agreed to pursue several projects. I was given a tremendous crash course in laser physics pertaining to low level energy and got reacquainted with the Electron Transport Chain that I had last looked at in Medical School at Loma Linda over 40 years ago. This video shows my research into the topic geared for the newbie wanting to know more about low level light lasers. Also be sure to view my summary of main points below. By 2026 Erchonia LLLL tech will be brought into the market. Imagine getting RF (ThermiVa/Morpheus/EmFemme) and Laser (Mona Lisa/Diva/etc.) results without patient contact, without disposable, without discomfort. So here is your teaser presentation. Enjoy the video.Join Gynflix.com for more Cosmetic Gynecology e-Learning. Spanish Edition Coming Soon. Red Alinsod, MD ([email protected])LLLL Colors and BenefitsPathophysiology of Low-Level Light Laser (LLLT) Effects Using Red, Violet, and Green LightGeneral Mechanisms of LLLTLow-Level Light Therapy (LLLT), also known as Photobiomodulation, involves the use of light at low power to induce biological effects at the cellular level. The primary mechanism involves:• Cellular Energy Production: LLLT increases mitochondrial activity by enhancing ATP synthesis. This is achieved through the stimulation of cytochrome c oxidase within the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which leads to more efficient electron transport and higher ATP production.• Reduction of Inflammation: By modulating cytokine levels, LLLT can reduce pro-inflammatory markers and promote anti-inflammatory responses. This is crucial for conditions where inflammation plays a significant role.• Cell Proliferation and Tissue Repair: Light energy stimulates fibroblast proliferation, enhancing collagen and elastin synthesis, which are vital for wound healing and skin rejuvenation.Specific Effects by WavelengthRed Light (635nm)• Skin Conditions:• Acne: Red light has antimicrobial properties and reduces sebaceous gland activity, which helps manage acne vulgaris.• Wound Healing: Promotes faster healing by increasing cell proliferation, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis.• Anti-Aging: Stimulates collagen and elastin production, reducing wrinkles and improving skin elasticity.• Vaginal Atrophy and Dryness:• Red light therapy aids in improving vaginal health by enhancing local blood circulation and promoting tissue repair, potentially reducing symptoms of atrophy.• Pelvic Pain:• By reducing inflammation and modulating nociceptive pathways, red light can alleviate chronic pelvic pain.• Hair Growth:• Enhances hair follicle proliferation and increases blood flow to the scalp, potentially aiding in hair regrowth in cases of androgenetic alopecia.Violet Light (405nm)• Antimicrobial Properties:• Violet light is particularly effective against bacteria due to its ability to produce reactive oxygen species, which can kill pathogens. This is useful for treating skin infections, including acne.• Skin Rejuvenation:• Stimulates the production of collagen at a deeper level due to its shorter wavelength, which can penetrate less but still influence cellular processes effectively.• Dermatological Conditions:• Helps in treating conditions like psoriasis by reducing inflammation and promoting healing.Green Light (520nm)• Angiogenesis and Neoangiogenesis:• Green light stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, which is beneficial for wound healing and improving circulation in ischemic tissues.• Pain Management:• Particularly effective for musculoskeletal pain due to its impact on muscle tissues, reducing pain and increasing range of motion.• Neurological Recovery:• Has shown potential in treating conditions involving neural damage or degeneration by promoting neurogenesis and reducing inflammation in neural tissues.Clinical Applications• Musculoskeletal Pain and Inflammation:• All three wavelengths have applications, but green and red are prominent for their deep penetration and pain-relieving effects.• Dermatological Uses:• Combination therapy using red and violet lights can address a wide range of skin conditions from acne to aging signs.• Gynecological Health:• Red light, in particular, has been explored for its benefits in managing vaginal health issues like atrophy and dryness.• Hair Restoration:• Red light therapy is increasingly used for hair loss treatments due to its capacity to stimulate hair follicles.Bibliography and References1.

We are currently in the middle of clinical studies at the Alinsod Institute for various gynecologic and cosmetic indications.THEORY OF MECHANISM OF OPERATION OF APPLICATION OF LOW-LEVEL LASER THERAPY (LLLT) USING THE ERCHONIA® VAL TO REDUCE MODERATE TO SEVERE VULVOVAGINAL ATROPHY (VVA) SYMPTOMS.VVA is a condition associated with decreased estrogenization of the vaginal tissue, which can decline naturally during menopause. Estrogen stimulates collagen production, providing structural support and elasticity to the tissues. Additionally, estrogen promotes lubrication and fosters a slightly acidic vaginal environment that hinders the growth of pathogens. With declining estrogen levels, a cascade of events ensues. In the vulva, collagen loss leads to a thinning and flattening of the labia majora and minora. The skin loses elasticity, becoming more susceptible to tears and exhibiting changes in color and texture, often appearing paler and feeling drier or rougher. This dryness and thinning can manifest as significant itching and discomfort, particularly with friction. Within the vagina the lining thins and loses moisture, leading to dryness and a lack of natural lubrication. The vaginal walls lose elasticity, potentially impacting sexual function and comfort. Furthermore, the decline in estrogen disrupts the vaginal pH balance, making it less acidic and more susceptible to infections. The lack of moisture and altered pH can irritate the vaginal lining, leading to inflammation and discomfort.Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) application initiates a photochemical reaction in cells that alters their biological activity. The primary target of this light therapy is the mitochondria, the cell's energy-producing organelles. Specific wavelengths of light are absorbed by protein complexes within the mitochondrial electron transport chain. This translates to enhanced oxidative phosphorylation, the main cellular process for generating adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the fundamental energy molecule powering cellular functions. LLLT influences a broad spectrum of biological activity, with research suggesting a regulation of over 100 genes, impacting various cellular processes like growth, collagen synthesis, microcirculation, apoptosis (programmed cell death), DNA repair, and antioxidant activity [1]. (shown below)Studies investigating red LLLT applied directly to ovarian granulosa cells (responsible for estrogen synthesis) have shown that LLLT appears to stimulate the enzyme 3-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase [2,], a key player in estrogen biosynthesis, and may further influence granulosa cells by increasing their number and improving vascular stability within the ovaries [3,4].In VVA, a decline in estrogen levels often leads to a decrease in collagen production, contributing to vaginal thinning, dryness, and loss of elasticity. Green and red LLLT irradiance, like that applied by the Erchonia VAL have shown to promote collagen synthesis and deposition [5,6,7]. Seo et al (2014), examined the effects of multiple wavelengths and found red and green light were the only wavelengths that increased the expression of collagen type I and TGF-β1 compared to the control [8]. The binding of TGF-β1 to specific receptors on the surface of fibroblasts ultimately leads to the activation of SMAD proteins, the active gene responsible for collagen synthesis (COL1A1 and COL3A1). Investigations with the Erchonia red laser have also demonstrated the ability to modulate TGF-β1, as well as insulin growth factor (IFG-1) which helps maintain the thickness and elasticity of the vaginal lining [9]. Likewise, a study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology showed low-level green laser enhanced the secretion of Collagen I and III. [10] Additionally, green light can significantly induce leptin [11], which exerts a specific mitogenic response on keratinocyte and fibroblast proliferation, on collagen synthesis, and also acts as a potent angiogenic factor for endothelial cells.The angiogenic factor of LLLT has also been widely reported with red light and especially the effect on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) [12]. VEGF stimulates multiple components of the angiogenic cascade, but also promotes collagen deposition and epithelialization. Exposure to low-level laser radiation with a wavelength of 630nm (red) has been shown to result in a 30% rise in VEGF gene expression within vascular endothelial cells, alongside an elevation in the count of M2 macrophages. [13]The biological effect was also confirmed in an assessment of the impact of laser radiation within the visible and infrared light spectrum on the growth of vascular endothelial cells by Szymanska et al, which determined that low-level laser therapy at a wavelength of red 635 nm resulted in the most significant increase in endothelial cell proliferation. [14]Dr. Kerry Zang, DPM conducted an evaluation of the application of the Erchonia 635nm laser to individuals presenting with chronic lower extremity pain. Blood Doppler assessed baseline microcirculation and microcirculation following each of four laser treatments. The blood doppler results demonstrated a 75% improvement in circulation across all patients (n=20) after 1.5 weeks of treatment, with a cumulative improvement in circulation occurring across successive treatments.References1.

    Lichen Sclerosus and Managing the Buried Clitoris with RF Surgery: Michael Reed, MD

    Lichen Sclerosus can be a very tough problem to manage. When all else fails (steroids, PRP, Exosomes, creams, lasers, RF) sometimes you have have to do surgery.

    History of the Alinsod Grooving Technique to Create Labia Minora from No Labia

    Red Alinsod, MDAlinsod Institute for Aesthetic Vulvovaginal SurgeryDallas, TXBACKGROUND:In 2005 I developed the Barbie Look Labiaplasty, a radical and aggressive form of labiaplasty that removed almost all to all of the labia minora to achieve maximal comfort for athletes, reduce the outlining of the labia when wearing swimsuits and leotard, and as a cosmetic preference to obtain a “clamshell” look wanted by women in Southern California. This was an athletic, smooth, and sleek look that was the most “tucked in” you could get. It was impossible to achieve this look with the standard plastic surgery wedge labiaplasties. It has been a beloved surgery for the carefully selected patients who want this minimalist “Look” it. No more adjusting and tugging. My Olympic level athletes found it to be an outstanding choice.HISTORY:Soon after my Barbie Look Labiaplasty technique became well known through my teaching programs, the media, presentations in Congresses, it was copied worldwide and attempted by untrained surgeons. Poor and awful outcomes were rapidly occurring, and I was referred many patients for repair. Patients came to me with no labia minora at all when they did not seek out or ask for the Barbie Look Labiaplasty. Their surgeon chose the wrong procedure of a Barbie Look for patients who wanted labia left. Many surgeons who had done zero to only a few labiaplasties ended up not knowing of the massive retraction of tissues in the upper third of the labia minora with resultant retraction of labial edges to end up flat and with NO labia at all. These surgeons did not know what to do and I was often consulted. I was also sought out as an expert witness for malpractice cases.I had a small handful of patients in the first decade of my practice doing the Barbie Look Labiaplasty who changed their minds months to years later and wanted to have a little bit of labia minora showing and not be completely flat. The pictures below is one of those patients. My original solution was simple and worked well if they wanted just a little bit of labia minora below the level of the labia majora. If they wanted more of the labia above the level of the labia majora I would have to make labia majora incisions up to 2cm above where the labial crease would have been. I called this my Grooving Technique because I created a groove between where the labia minora and labia majora had met, the interlabial fold, undermined medialy, and created a labia from no labia. It was actually creating an optical illusion of a new labia when in reality it was creating a groove and sometimes suturing the lateral majora edge to the lowest portion of minora edge that was just “grooved.”I shared this secret with Amr Seifeldin when he visited my office on October 6, 2015, 2017, 2019. I did not publish my technique and only shared it with my Alinsod Fellows who would travel to Laguna Beach over the past 18 years to participate in my Preceptorships. Amr expanded on my methods for the patient who wanted a more significant labia minora reconstruction without the use of flaps and has taught this to his Fellows. His Center in Cairo, Egypt, has been a tremendous resource for patients in the area wanting both Female Genital Mutilation Repair, Cosmetic Gynecology Surgeries, and advanced Revision Labial Surgeries such as my Grooving Technique. The landmark article by Reham Awwad, Amr Seifeldin, Natalie Sorial, and myself is attached at the end of this newsletter.PATIENT SELECTION AND GROOVING TECHNIQUE SUMMARY:1. For the patient who wants to create the illusion of a labia minora where there was none up to the level of the labia majora and just past it.2. Local anesthesia3. Use radiosurgery to create a “Groove” between the labia minora and labia majora, where the crease used to be, the former intralabial fold.4. Start with the fine pinpoint “Hair Tip” of the Ellman or Soniquence RF to outline and incise from the top of the labia minora to the introitis.5. Use this “Hair Tip” to smoothen any labial and hood areas to create a smooth from from the clitoral hood to the frenulum or its remnants, to the labia minora.6. Use the small ball tip to continue the Grooving deeper while maintaining hemostasis to create a flab of labia minora medially. With adequate numbing cream, a QTip is used twice daily to keep the edges from fusing together. This is performed for 4-6 weeks. No suturing needed.7. For more significant labial creation, suturing is need to attach the lateral majora edge of the incision to the lowest portion of the medial minora edge to keep the appearance of a new labia minora.8. Inject PRP into the surgical site and use Estrogen Cream or Exosome Cream to aid in healing for the next 6 to 8 weeks.I have videos on how this surgery is performed on Gynflix intended for surgeon training:The Long Version is 2:18:41 long: Vaginoplasty 101, CHR Grooving and Feathering Revision, and O-ShotThe Short Version is 1:24:50 long: Feathering and Grooving Revision, CHR, and O-Shot for Botched LabiaplastyThe Full Length version of this video will be released on www.gynflix.com shortly in May 2025.

    Tip Toeing into Cosmetic Gynecology Part 1

    A Practical Game Plan for OBGYNs Transitioning to Fee-for-Service Cosmetic GynecologyFor OBGYNs looking to shift from an insurance-based practice to the thriving fee-for-service realm of cosmetic gynecology, the transition can be both liberating and lucrative. This game plan outlines actionable steps to wean off insurance dependency, build a cash-pay patient base for non-surgical cosmetic gynecology, and eventually scale into surgical procedures. Along the way, we'll introduce you to invaluable resources like Gynflix, online learning platforms, global surgical teaching programs, and the unparalleled guidance of Dr. Red Alinsod, a pioneer in this field.Step 1: Assess and Strategize Your Transition* Evaluate Your Current Practice: Start by analyzing your patient demographics, revenue streams, and time allocation. How much of your income comes from insurance versus out-of-pocket services? Identify procedures (e.g., wellness exams, minor cosmetic treatments) that could transition to cash-pay with minimal disruption.* Set a Timeline: Gradually reduce your reliance on insurance over 6-12 months. Begin by dropping lower-paying insurance contracts while maintaining a hybrid model to ensure financial stability.* Educate Yourself: Cosmetic gynecology requires a shift in mindset and skillset. Familiarize yourself with the demand for non-surgical treatments (e.g., plasmaporation, radiofrequency and laser vaginal rejuvenation, O-Shot, Vampire Wing Lift, fillers) and surgical options (e.g., labiaplasty, vaginoplasty, external anal skin tag excision). This is where online learning comes in—more on that later.Step 2: Start with Non-Surgical Cosmetic Gynecology* Why Non-Surgical First: Non-surgical procedures like Jett Medical (plasmaporation), O-Shot (PRP injections), FemXHA Vulvar Filling (PRP + Hyaluronic Acid), are inexpensive low-risk entry points. They require less initial investment, minimal recovery for patients, and can be marketed as "lunchtime procedures" to attract cash-paying clients.* Build Skills: Invest in training for non-surgical modalities. Don’t go hog crazy spending money. Pick what fits your style. If you don’t know your style then speak to Dr. Alinsod or one of his trained experts. InMode Morpheus and ThermiVa (radiofrequency tightening), Sciton Diva, Fotona IntimaLase, Mona Lisa Touch (lasers) are companies to consider when you have more cash on hand. They are not cheap. Many device manufacturers offer certification courses, but for a comprehensive foundation, Gynflix Online e-Learning (detailed below) is a game-changer. It can help guide you in these choices. And this is also the time to invest in Bioidentical Hormone Training. Creams and troches and pellets. This is a low-risk cash business that has grown steadily. I prefer a cream practice because of ease of use and ability to adjust doses quickly and no equipment needed. Others prefer pellet practices. Do your due diligence and research the style that fits you.* Wean Off Insurance: Begin offering non-surgical cosmetic services as cash-pay add-ons to your existing patients. For example, offer feminine treatments to menopause patients already seeking hormone therapy. Reduce insurance appointment slots by 10-20% monthly, replacing them with cosmetic consultations.* Marketing 101:* Website Overhaul: Update your website with a dedicated "Cosmetic Gynecology" section highlighting non-surgical options, benefits (e.g., improved intimacy, comfort, confidence), and pricing.* Social Media: Share educational content on Instagram or Facebook—think short videos on "What is Plasmaporation?" or patient testimonials (with consent). Avoid overt sales pitches; focus on empowerment and wellness and education. Do really try to teach concepts and the options for care.* Local Networking: Partner with med-spas, dermatologists, or fitness centers to cross-refer clients seeking aesthetic enhancements.Step 3: Scale Up to Surgical Cosmetic Gynecology* Master the Craft: Once non-surgical services gain traction, prepare for surgical offerings like labiaplasty or perineoplasty. These procedures command higher fees (often $5,000+ per case) and require advanced training. Dr. Alinsod has trained dozens of surgeons around the world who now have their own World Class programs. Dr. Alinsod and Gynflix can help you find the perfect match.* Invest in Equipment: Purchase tools like plasmaporation, radiofrequency, and laser surgical instruments tailored for cosmetic gynecology. Dr. Red Alinsod’s innovations, such as the Jett Medical Plasmaporation, Soniquence RF, LightScalpel CO2 Laser, Lone Star APS Vaginal Retractor, are industry standards worth exploring. Check out the top companies Dr. Alinsod recommends on this Resources Page. * Full Transition: Phase out remaining insurance contracts as your cash-pay revenue grows. Aim for a 100% fee-for-service practice within 12-18 months, depending on patient uptake. Dr. Alinsod spent 5 years to wean off all insurances smoothly.* Advanced Marketing:* Before-and-After Portfolios: Showcase results (anonymized, with consent) to build trust and credibility. Take pictures of all your cosmetic cases.* Workshops/Seminars: Host local events titled "Feminine Wellness Unveiled" to educate potential patients on surgical options. Medical topics can be “The Synergy of Energy and Biologics,” “Health and Hormones.”* VIP Packages: Offer bundled services (e.g., labiaplasty + non-surgical tightening) to provide added value and retain clients. Dr. Alinsod best-selling bundle is called “The Leaky Bladder Special” that combines radiofrequency, PRP, and electromagnetic “Pee Pee Chair.”Step 4: Leverage Gynflix and Online Learning* What is Gynflix: Created by Dr. Red Alinsod, Gynflix is the premier e-learning platform for cosmetic gynecology. Think of it as "Netflix for Gyns" - hundreds of high-definition videos covering surgical and non-surgical techniques, from basic labiaplasty to complex combination surgeries. It’s designed for you to learn at your own pace, anywhere, anytime.* Why It’s Essential: Residency and fellowships rarely if ever cover cosmetic gynecology. Gynflix fills this gap with step-by-step guidance, narrated by Dr. Alinsod himself. Subscriptions start affordably, with modules for targeted learning (e.g., "Core Labiaplasty" or "Non-Surgical Cosmetic Gynecology” to “Vaginoplasty and Perineoplasty") and certificates of completion to boost your credentials.* How to Use It: Begin with non-surgical modules (e.g., NS1: Synergy O-Shot & RF Training) to launch your practice. As you grow, dive into surgical modules (e.g., S1: Labia Minoraplasty w/ Clitoral Hood) to prepare for bigger cases. Visit gynflix.com to explore.Step 5: Tap Into Global Surgical Teaching Programs* Worldwide Opportunities: Hands-on training is critical for surgical mastery. Programs like the Alinsod Institute for Vulvovaginal Surgery have offered preceptorships for over 20 years. Dr. Alinsod now has graduate Fellows around the world who offer their expert hands-on training. Other options include:* ISCG (International Society of Cosmetogynecology): Hosts cadaver courses and live surgery workshops (e.g., Fort Lauderdale, NJ).* CAVS (Congress on Aesthetic Vulvovaginal Surgery): Founded by Dr. Alinsod, it’s the longest-running event for networking and learning. This is now integrated into ISCG which Dr. Alinsod fully supports and attends every year. The next Congress is just 3 weeks away on March 20-22, 2025.* Why It Matters: These programs bridge the gap between online theory and real-world practice, ensuring precision and patient safety.Step 6: Learn from Dr. Red Alinsod’s Expertise* Who is Dr. Alinsod: A urogynecologist and innovator, Dr. Red Alinsod is a global leader in cosmetic gynecology. With over 30 years of experience, he’s trained countless doctors, invented techniques like the "Barbie Look" and “Curvilinear Labia Majoraplasty, Office Vaginoplasty, and co-authored the seminal textbook Female Cosmetic Genital Surgery. His patents (e.g., ThermiVa, Lone Star Retractor, Genital Predictive Permeation) have transformed the field.* His Guidance: Through Gynflix, preceptorships, and personal mentorship, Dr. Alinsod offers a roadmap to success. His one-on-one teaching—both virtual and in-person—has transformed practices worldwide. Doctors praise his precision, accessibility (email him at [email protected]), and passion for elevating patient care.* Exclusive Video: Check out Dr. Alinsod’s latest video in this newsletter, where he walks you through key steps to kickstart your cosmetic gynecology journey. It’s a must-watch for practical insights!Final Tips for Success* Mindset Shift: Embrace the entrepreneurial spirit—think of yourself as a boutique provider, not just a clinician. Patients pay for results and a feeling of family, not paperwork.* Patient Experience: Offer concierge-level service (e.g., private consultations, follow-up calls) to justify premium pricing. Get started with Zoom and FaceTime.* Stay Curious: Cosmetic gynecology evolves fast. Stay ahead with Gynflix updates and Dr. Alinsod’s newsletters (subscribe at cosmeticgynecology.substack.com, femininewellness.substack.com, labiaplasty.substack.com).The PayoffTransitioning to fee-for-service cosmetic gynecology can triple your per-hour revenue compared to insurance-based practice. Non-surgical treatments build your confidence and cash flow, while surgical expertise cements your reputation as a top-tier provider.

    Part 2: Jett Medical II Plasmaporation for Topical Anesthesia and Tissue Engineering

    This is Part 2 of my two part introduction to Jett Medical technology. Watch last week’s Part 1 first. Now available in the USA (Dan Wray: [email protected]).Low-level direct current (DC) can have various effects on skin, tissues, and nerves, which are important for both therapeutic applications and understanding the biological response to electrical stimulation. Here’s a detailed explanation of the Plasmaporation effects using DC current.Red Alinsod, MD ([email protected])What is PlasmaThe Jett Medical device, manufactured by Compex in the Czech Republic, utilizes a unique plasma technology for skin treatments. Here's an overview based on available information:Plasma is often referred to as the fourth state of matter, following solids, liquids, and gases. It consists of a gas that has been ionized, meaning it contains free electrons and ions which give it unique properties. Plasma can conduct electricity and is affected by magnetic fields, making it a versatile medium for various applications, including medical treatments.How is Plasma Generated in the Jett Medical Device?* Direct Current (DC) Plasma Generation: The Jett Plasma device uses DC voltage to generate plasma. This method involves creating spark discharges that produce heat. The technology is based on DC fulguration, which is more precise than alternating current (AC) methods because it affects a smaller area of the skin and doesn't damage surrounding tissues.* Mechanism: Plasma is generated between the device's tip and the patient's skin which is conductively connected to the device. The tip is held about 2 mm above the skin, and the high-energy discharge ionizes the air, turning it into plasma. This plasma discharge does not touch the skin but generates a thermal effect on the surface and subsurface layers.Effects on Skin:* Skin Tightening and Lifting: The heat from the plasma stimulates the body's natural healing response, leading to collagen production. This results in skin tightening and a lifting effect, particularly effective for areas like the eyelids for non-surgical blepharoplasty.* Collagen Production: The thermal effect induces immediate skin tightening and promotes long-term collagen synthesis, which can reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and improve skin texture.* Treatment of Skin Imperfections: It's used for non-surgical treatment of various skin conditions including moles, skin tags, warts, and even scars. The plasma energy can sublimate skin lesions without cutting, providing an alternative to traditional surgery.* Minimal Downtime: The Jett Plasma treatment is noted for its minimal downtime compared to surgical options. While there might be some temporary redness, swelling, or crusting, these effects are generally less severe and shorter-lasting than those from surgical procedures.* Versatility: The device can be used in dermatology, aesthetic medicine, non-invasive surgery, ophthalmology, and other medical fields for a range of treatments from skin rejuvenation to lesion removal.* Safety and Precision: Being a non-contact method, it reduces the risk of scarring and infection, provided the procedure is carried out by trained professionals under appropriate conditions.The effectiveness and safety of Jett Plasma treatments are highlighted in various medical studies and applications, indicating its significance in modern skin care and cosmetic procedures.Effects of Low-Level DC Current1. Plasmaporation Skin Effects:* Electrochemical Reactions: When DC current passes through the skin, it can induce electrochemical reactions at the electrode-skin interface. This can lead to the formation of alkaline or acidic environments depending on the polarity of the electrodes, which may cause skin irritation or burns if not carefully monitored. * Vasodilation: DC current can induce vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) due to the release of histamines and other mediators such as heat. This can improve blood circulation in the area, promoting healing.* Increased Permeability: The passage of low-level DC can increase skin permeability, which may enhance the absorption of topical medications. 2. Tissue Effects:* Thermal Effects: Low-level DC can generate heat in the tissues due to resistance. While this effect can be beneficial for promoting healing, excessive heat can lead to tissue damage. Jett Medical maxes out at a safe 40-42 Celsius. Skin burns begin at 55 Celsius. * Stimulation of Cellular Activity: DC can promote cellular activities such as migration, proliferation, and differentiation. This is particularly relevant in wound healing and tissue repair and regeneration.* Electroporation: One of the significant effects of low-level DC is the phenomenon known as electroporation (also known as Plasmaporation, Predictive Permeation, ,Dermoelectroporation/DEP). Specialized and tested software allows safe and comfortable use and passage of nutrients and proteins into the cell.* Electroporation is seen with DC Current and not AC CurrentDefinition: Electroporation refers to the process of creating temporary pores in cell membranes through the application of electric fields. This phenomenon allows for increased permeability of the cell membrane to various substances, including drugs, genes, and other macromolecules.1. Mechanism of Plasmaporation:* When a sufficiently strong electric field is applied across a cell membrane, it induces a charge imbalance, leading to structural changes in the lipid bilayer. These changes create transient pores, allowing substances that normally cannot pass through the membrane to enter the cell.* The size and duration of these pores depend on the strength and duration of the applied DC current.2. Applications in Medicine:* Drug Delivery: Electroporation can enhance the delivery of therapeutic agents into cells, making it a promising technique for gene therapy, cancer treatment, and vaccine delivery. This is particularly useful for delivering large molecules like plasmid DNA.* Tissue Engineering: It can be used to facilitate the incorporation of growth factors or other bioactive molecules into scaffolds used in tissue engineering.* Cancer Treatment: Research is ongoing into the use of electroporation in combination with chemotherapeutic agents to increase the efficacy of treatment while reducing systemic side effects.3. Safety and Considerations:* While electroporation can be beneficial, it must be carefully controlled to avoid cell death or damage to surrounding tissues. The parameters such as current intensity, duration, and frequency must be optimized for each application.DC v AC CurrentDirect Current (DC) vs. Alternating Current (AC)1. Nature of Current:* Direct Current (DC): Flows in one direction steadily. The voltage remains constant over time.* Alternating Current (AC): Changes direction periodically. The voltage varies sinusoidally with time, typically at a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz.* Radiofrequency devices use AC. No electroporation.2. Physiological Responses:* DC:* Skin Response: Electroporation. Can cause a stronger electrochemical reaction at the electrodes, leading to potential burns or irritation if the current is too high. Specialized software is used to precisely regulate the milliampere energy for comfort and speed of poration.* Tissue Response: Can stimulate muscle contractions and may cause localized heating stimulating the healing cascade.* AC:* Skin Response: Generally produces a more uniform sensation. The alternating nature can prevent tissue damage compared to DC.* Tissue Response: Often used for pain relief and muscular stimulation; can induce deeper tissue effects without as much discomfort. * No electroporation.3. Medical Applications:* DC:* Used in electrotherapy for treatments like galvanic stimulation, which can enhance drug delivery through iontophoresis or stimulate nerve and muscle tissues.* Utilized in certain diagnostic tests and in some medical devices like pacemakers.* AC:* Commonly used in TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) units for pain relief.* Employed in muscle stimulators and for various rehabilitation therapies.* AC is also used in diagnostic imaging and certain types of monitoring equipment.SummaryIn summary, the choice between DC and AC in medical applications depends on the desired physiological effect, as well as safety and comfort considerations for the patient.Low-level DC current has significant effects on skin, tissues, and nerves, including electrochemical reactions, increased permeability, and stimulation of cellular activity. Electroporation, induced by DC current, presents a valuable technique for enhancing drug delivery and tissue engineering applications. Understanding these effects is crucial for the safe and effective use of electrical stimulation in medical practice.PROTOCOL FOR JETT MEDICAL TREATMENTS For more information contact Distributor: Dan Wray: [email protected] Sign Ups are Open for the Annual ISCG Congress 2025!If you have not been to an ISCG Congress then you must attend ISCG 2025.

    Part 1: Jett Medical Obtains FDA Clearance

    This is HUGE! A generational change is upon us. Ten years ago radiofrequency and lasers stormed the stage and became the standard for Feminine Wellness and non-surgical “Vaginal Rejuvenation.” After 7 years of an intense approval process, on January 21, 2025, Compex of the Czech Republic, and their Jett Medical device, received their FDA 510k clearance in the United States. Let me explain why this is so important for the field of Cosmetic Gynecology.* Plasma technology: DC current (Direct Current) in the 1-5 milliampere range is able to create non-ablative plasma energy at the Silver tips. This stimulates comfortable heat up to 42 Celsius, stimulates fibroblasts and tightens skin, results in increased blood flow and moisture, collagen formation, elastin formation, and nerve sensitivity improvement. * Plasma technology: DC current creates plasma energy at the Gold tips for ablation and shrinkage of lesions and skin. Treats HVP/Warts/Molluscum/Angiomas.* Plasma technology: DC current opens up the cell membrane’s water channels and allows for the temporary passage of macro and micro molecules deep into the cell in a process called electroporation.* Infuse PRP, PPP, Exosomes, Amniotic Fluid, topical steroids: to revitalize skin and reduce inflammation (lichen, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis). Reduce inflammation of skin and give skin a vibrant glow.* Infuse Vitamin A or C or Hydroquinone or Kojic Acid: Vulvar lightening treatments* Infuse Collagen Type 1: Plump up skin and reduce wrinkles. Reduce inflammation of skin and give skin a vibrant glow.* Reusable hand pieces with no disposables. Additional dedicated gynecologic wands arriving in the US market soon.* Affordable Lower Cost: About 1/3rd to 1/4th the price of competing systems allowing this technology to be the CORE device of both cosmetic and functional gynecology.* Synergy: One device for Plasmaporation and Feminine Restoration (equivalent to Radiofrequency results) that is effective and cleared for use on the face and body.Below are the brochures and advertisements used for the European and World markets as well as the FDA Clearance and the Vaginal Laxity Study used to gain US approval. Enjoy this Part 1 video. Part 2 will be released later this week and shows how I use Plasmaporation to numb labial and vaginal tissues (before labiaplasty and vaginoplasty), as well as for vulvar lightening.For more information contact Distributor: Dan Wray: [email protected] Alinsod, MD ([email protected])WHAT IS JETT Technology: European/Worldwide indicationsA patented direct current electrocautery device indicated for non-ablative treatment of vulvovaginal laxity causing tissue tightening and strengthening. Unique direct current technology provides a solution for issues connected to vulvovaginal laxity, such as insufficient vaginal moisture, burning and itching, stress incontinence and sexual discomfort due to vaginal dryness, reduced tightness, elasticity and sensitivity. Developed mainly for women after childbirth and menopause.MECHANISMThe positive effect of JETT Medical II is caused by combination of heat, membrane depolarization and low threshold reversible electroporation. The passage of direct current generates heat, which activates the formation of new collagen connective tissue, leading to a rejuvenation and stronger and more flexible tissue structure. In addition to the heat effect, unique direct current technology causes membrane depolarization and reversible electroporation which reduces the barrier and enable easier passage of ions and molecules through cell membranes.The procedure is painless, well tolerated and it does not require local anaesthetic application. It solves rejuvenation of atrophied vaginal mucosa. It is suitable also in cases when local estrogen vaginal creams cannot be applied (condition after oncological diseases) with estrogen-dependent tumours.VULVOVAGINAL TREATMENT PRINCIPLESmall micro-discharges occur in the gel between the applicator and the tissue. Micro-discharges cause local increase of electric intensity. When this intensity reaches certain threshold value, the electroporation appears. Micro-discharges randomly arise and disappear in huge numbers, which ensures desired effect in the treated area.Local increase of electric intensity causes nanopore formation in the cell membrane. Macromolecules and ions can easily get into the cell through these pores.- The cells are refreshed and increase its volume.- The atrophy of vaginal mucosal and submucosal tissue decrease.- The cohesion between mucosal and submucosal tissue is improved.In studies in Europe and outside the US, treatment using Jett technology, patients reported significant improvement in her sexual quality of life with reduction of incontinence, urgency, and atrophy.INDICATIONS IN EUROPE•Incontinence (SUI, OAB)•Rejuvenation and skin tightening•Atrophy and dryness of skin•Labial shrinkage•Pain and Discomfort from GSM (lack of elasticity and skin thickness)ADVANTAGES•Safe, comfortable, painless•Short treatment time•Non–surgical•No need for anesthesia•No hormones•No scars•3 treatments with an interval of 10-14 days (complete series in 6 weeks)MARKETING BROCHURES FOR EUROPE AND WORLDWIDEK240311Trade/Device Name: JETT Medical IIRegulation Number: 21 CFR 878.4400Regulation Name: Electrosurgical Cutting And Coagulation Device And AccessoriesRegulatory Class: Class IIProduct Code: GEIDated: December 13, 2024Received: December 13, 2024Treatment of Vulvovaginal Laxity by Electroporation: The Jett Plasma Medical for Her II StudyPROTOCOL FOR JETT MEDICAL IIPre-Congress Sign Ups are Open for the Annual ISCG Congress 2025!If you have not been to an ISCG Congress then you must attend ISCG 2025.

    Needleless Infusion Webinar from GetHairMD

    Here is the whole recording of my Webinar for GetHairMD last week. This follows up on my Cosmetic Gynecology Newsletter from November 19, 2024. Thank you to the GetHairMD Team for letting me show off this amazing technology that has completely transformed my practice this past decade. I started using this in about 2009 and it has helped me manage surgical pain, lichen sclerosis, vulvar lightening, skin plumping. Today it is to infuse hair serum to create and maintain that full head of hair. Enjoy. I have lots of case to view on Gyflix using this tech. Here is another link below for more detailed coverage of electroporation technology (aka TDI: Transdermal Infusion) that enables placement of molecules deep under the skin without the use needles at all. Super safe, super comfortable for patients. Click on the picture Predictive Permeation for Gynecology. You can also click on the second photo for more videos.

    Marco Pelosi's Cosmetic Gyn State of the Art 2022: The War

    The war has raged for over two decades between Academics versus the Cosmetic Gynecologists, the war over the vagina and the vulva, and who gets to make the rules working on it. How to fight the good fight against Academia who may try to make you feel little. Expose their weaknesses and exploit them. Taking the high ground along the way. This is a GREAT LISTEN! You will learn Marco’s approach to this WAR.Enjoy Marco’s talk. Click here to learn more about ISCG.Personal Reflections Looking back at ISCG 2022 and a most consequential yearOur Mojo was back from the pandemic. We were happy and filled with positivity. We all flew back to Fort Lauderdale to reconnect with our colleagues once again. Boy it was fun. So cool to feel normal again. Our European and Latin and Asian friends were back!Here’s a little background on the Big Secret I was about to reveal at ISCG 2022 and the huge reason I rented some floor space and brought my daughter, Samantha Nicoletti, to the Congress. I spent the pandemic years os 2020 and 2021 collecting and organizing the surgical videos I had collected for almost 20 years. Over 100 Terabytes of photos and videos. I spent an enormous amount of time and energy editing and organizing my content and finally launched AIAVS Online (Alinsod Institute for Aesthetic Vulvovaginal Surgery), my dedicated online content to teach Cosmetic Gynecology. My daughter Samantha, and later on my son Dillon, were very instrumental in helping me edit my first batches of videos. They both became Masters at videography and editing. My wife Robyn encouraged me greatly to push on and focus on this new venture. She saw it as something I loved and exceptionally OCD about! My mom had just passed in September of 2019 and my way of coping was to dive into a project to help my grief. Mom would be very proud of what happens next.AIAVS Online was separate and apart from my onsite teaching program given by my South Coast Urogynecology Corporation. Those who wanted to be Alinsod Fellows had to travel to Laguna Beach, California, and train with me side by side. I had so many International doctors begging me to come to train in their countries or create a separate online course. Hence the creation of AIAVS Online. I had to announce it to the world so off to ISCG 2022 Fort Lauderdale Samantha and I went.Samantha had created beautiful pull-up stands advertising my new venture that highlighted my Modules that ranged from Labiaplasty, Vaginoplasty, to Gynecologic Photography. We had tons of interest. It was a bit pricey to help pay for my huge monetary investments of hardware, software, hosting. We chose Vimeo as our core. Just storing the organized videos cost me $36,000/year for starters. This turned out to be the precursor of Gynflix, released on later on in the year October 2022, the same time I sold my Laguna Beach practice. I wanted to create THE Netflix of Gynecology video service that anyone in the world interested in Cosmetic Gynecology could access. So I brainstormed with Samantha to upgrade AIAVS Online. I wanted it to be more affordable and with the highest quality videos possible for a wider audience. 4K quality for most videos and HD at the least. All narrated and explained by me with live descriptions or dedicated voiceovers. We worked with my magnificent Webmaster, Suzette Peterson, and her daughter Sarah, night and day for months to launch Gynflix. Total Team Effort!!! Now www.gynflix.com is the World Leader in Online Cosmetic Gynecology e-Learning watched in over 50 countries and in all 50 states. It hosts over 300 videos on surgical and non-surgical Cosmetic Gynecology. I sold my Laguna Beach practice and my onsite teaching program but kept AIAVS Online and Gynflix. I was off to my new home and new practice in Dallas, Texas. A new start that built on my 30+ years of California practice. ISCG 2022: The Event!Hope you enjoyed that journey back in time to 2022!

    FemXHA Podcast by ARMS Medical

    Robert Greer worked with me over 20 years ago at Caldera Medical when I helped develop the Desara Sling system. Our friendship and collaboration has flourished over the years. He witnessed my development of the Lone Star APS Retractor, Ascend Pelvic Floor System and its patents obtained. Now he owns and runs his own medical device company called ARMS Medical which specializes in Dermal Allograft, or dermis for use in pelvic reconstructive surgery such as augmented cystocele repairs. We used my patents and designs to help create his amazing VNew Dermal Allograft product that is the best in its field. It is the only one I use for complex pelvic floor repairs now. You can see my videos using VNew on Gynflix.com. Contact Robert Greer if you are a pelvic surgeon who does augmented pelvic floor repairs. He really has the best stuff out there.
