Introduction
Although labiaplasty is often mistakenly considered solely a postpartum procedure, young women may have a congenital protrusion, malformation, or unevenness of the labia minora (the inner folds of skin surrounding the vulvar opening of the vagina) that extends beyond the labia majora, most often called labia hypertrophy. The results are not simply aesthetically undesirable for many young women, but often include irritation, functional impairment, and discomfort in every day activities, sports and with many types of clothing.
Dr. Laurie Casas offers a discreet, private, in-office consultation and procedure so that young women seeking a better quality of life through prepartum […]
Q: I’m 17 and I’m embarrassed by my large labia that continues to be irritated; when is the right time to have a Labiaplasty?
A: Labiaplasty surgery offers females a safe solution to physical discomfort or dissatisfaction with the appearance of their labia. Many patients report increased comfort following the procedure due to reduction in “hanging skin”. In the last decade, the procedure has become far more common and sought after. Women were sometimes reluctant to seek this procedure due to the private nature but fortunately, it has become respectfully recognized as a legitimate health as well as aesthetic concern.

A.: Depending on the amount of skin laxity and fat under that skin I would probably advise Coolsculpting. This is a non invasive procedure that freezes your fat in the area […]

“Mommy Makeover” and “After Pregnancy” Resource
Notable Item: Dr. Laurie Casas lends her expertise to New Beauty Magazine in an article about breast enhancement surgery after pregnancy. Dr. Casas says that many new moms undergo breast augmentation in addition to a breast lift to restore volume and firmness to their brests. Pregnancy and lactation cause breast changes leading to smaller, more saggy breasts. Dr. Casas says,
“Women are emotionally traumatized when a beautiful event like pregnancy and lactation adversely affects their breasts.”

Question: I’m looking to try some chemical peels for my stretch marks before I consider other surgery options, what other treatments are there?
Answer: Great question! Unfortunately right now there is no reliably treatment for stretch marks. Some laser treatments can decrease the darker stretch marks; but for the whiter stretch marks there aren’t effective treatments.
Now if your stretch marks are in areas which lend themselves to be cut out, such as the lower abdominal area then a tummy tuck may be your best option!
