Melanie Foster, an aesthetician student at the International Academy of Hair & Aesthetics, 4812 S. Mill Ave. in Tempe, received a $1,000 scholarship to attend Phoenix Medical’s Laser School.
Foster, a Gilbert resident, was honored for her aesthetician pledge composition. She wrote:
As an aesthetician: I pledge to continually apply myself to advance my talents, my skills, and my knowledge in aesthetics. I will use this expertise to provide the highest quality service I possibly can. I will take pride in myself through both my conduct and appearance. I aspire to look for the opportunity to grow from every experience and bring out the best in myself and others. I am determined to listen intently to client concerns, focus on their personal needs and to always strive to exceed expectations. I intend to deliver exceptional personalized and professional service. In addition, I expect to provide an incredibly comfortable and relaxing experience for clients. It is my passion to help people improve their self image and increase their confidence in the appearance. Most importantly, my goal is to make a considerable difference in people’s lives.
Foster is training to become a licensed skin care specialist. After she completes her studies and passes her state board exams, she will be able to work with clients to treat facial skin to maintain and improve its appearance. The scholarship will allow her to have more advanced training through the Phoenix Medical.

With so many of our graduates working at beauty salons, health spas and physician’s offices, it appears that we are succeeding in our goals.”

Recently, Adam Ostrzenski, M.D., Ph.D., professor of gynecology, an internationally-renowned surgeon, educator, and clinical scientist in the field cosmetic-reconstructive gynecology, published his clinical research findings related to “Clitoral Hoodoplasty“.
The original article was entitled “A New Hydrodissection with Reverse V-Plasty Technique for Buried Clitoris Associated with Lichen Sclerosus” and appeared in the peer review, scientific Journal of Gynecologic Surgery 2010; 26:41-48.

This new cosmetic gynecologic procedure provided women not only with a new cosmetic option for transformation of the clitoris to a more appealing look but also improved function and the procedure changed the definition of “Clitoral Hoodoplasty.”

The definition prior to Dr. Ostrzenski’s publication had been described as cosmetic size reduction of excessively overgrowing and often dark skin covering the clitoris. Professor Ostrzenski, in his study, documented that reduction of the clitoral hood was not indicated in all cases but rebuilding clitoral hood and bringing up the clitoris from under the skin location was necessary. The details of this innovated cosmetic surgical technique developed by Dr. Ostrzenski can be identified on the Internet under the term “Clitoral Hoodoplasty” or website at www.cosmetic-gyn.com.

Professor Ostrzenski has concluded additional clinical studies related to developing new surgical techniques in cosmetic gynecology such as G-Spot surgical augmentation (permanent augmentation), vaginal rejuvenation (5 new techniques based upon the presence of clinical characteristics, including restoration of vaginal ridges with CO2 laser), vaginal opening reconstruction (2 techniques), revirgination or hymenoplasty (one technique without using suturing materials), hymeneal plate and hymeneal ring restoration (one technique), thin labia labioplasty (one technique), thick labia labioplasty (2 techniques), vaginoplasty (one technique), reduction of cervical glands in overproduction of mucus. All women who participated in Dr. Ostrzenski’s cosmetic clinical study reported an improvement in enjoyment from sexual activities, an improvement in self-confidence, an improvement in body image perception, and an improvement in quality of life. Women will gain these improvements and youthful, healthy appearance of female genitalia from these new cosmetic gynecologic procedures being offered by Dr. Ostrzenski in his practice. For more information, please view Professor Ostrzenski’s website at www.cosmetic-gyn.com or on the Internet under the term of “clitoral hoodoplasty”.

Surgeons who specialize in Cosmetic Gynecology can expand their practice and optimize their practice income by learning this and other 28 cosmetic gynecologic techniques from Professor Ostrzenski’s during his workshops which are offered for physician. To check the dates of upcoming cosmetic gynecologic workshops, please consult our website at http://www.cosmetic-gyn.com/ or on the Internet under the term of “clitoral hoodoplasty.
