Female Genital Rejuvenation with Rich Plasma

Descubre el innovador tratamiento con Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) para revitalizar tanto la zona interna como la externa del área genital. Esta técnica mínimamente invasiva utiliza los propios elementos regenerativos de tu sangre para devolver vitalidad, suavidad y juventud a los tejidos, promoviendo tanto la salud estética como funcional.


¿Qué es el PRP y cómo funciona?

El PRP se obtiene de una pequeña muestra de tu propia sangre, la cual se centrifuga para concentrar las plaquetas. Estas células contienen poderosos growth factors que, al ser inyectados en las áreas deseadas, estimulan:

  • La producción de fibroblastos: responsables de la síntesis de colágeno, elastina y ácido hialurónico.
  • La angiogénesis: formación de nuevos vasos sanguíneos que mejora la nutrición y oxigenación de los tejidos.
  • La mitogénesis: regeneración celular que repara y renueva la piel y las mucosas.

Esta acción integral no solo repara el daño celular, sino que también mejora la textura, el tono, la firmeza y la hidratación tanto de la piel como de las mucosas.


Beneficios del Tratamiento

  • Rejuvenecimiento Natural: Aumenta la producción de colágeno y elastina, devolviendo juventud y firmeza a la zona.
  • Mejora de la Lubricación: Estimula la secreción de ácido hialurónico, lo que reduce la sequedad y mejora la lubricación vaginal.
  • Resultados Funcionales y Estéticos: Reduce la atrofia y la flaccidez, mejora la textura y el tono de la piel, y promueve una mayor sensibilidad y placer durante el acto sexual.
  • Procedimiento Seguro y Rápido: Al utilizar tu propio plasma, se minimizan los riesgos de reacciones adversas. La aplicación es prácticamente indolora y el tiempo de recuperación es inmediato.
  • Adaptabilidad: Puede utilizarse de forma aislada o en combinación con otras terapias, como tratamientos con láser o la aplicación de ácido hialurónico, para potenciar y prolongar sus efectos.

Proceso del Tratamiento

  1. Extracción y Procesamiento: Se extrae una pequeña cantidad de sangre, que se procesa en una centrifugadora para concentrar las plaquetas.
  2. Aplicación Dirigida: El concentrado de PRP se inyecta en la zona interna (vaginal) y externa (labios y áreas circundantes) de la región genital. En algunos casos, se añade láser para potenciar el efecto rejuvenecedor.
  3. Recuperación y Resultados:
    • Sin Láser: La recuperación es inmediata y la mayoría de las pacientes pueden retomar sus actividades e incluso mantener relaciones sexuales al día siguiente.
    • Con Láser: Se recomienda una abstinencia sexual de 7 días para optimizar los resultados.

La frecuencia recomendada es de una sesión mensual, con un máximo de tres sesiones al año, permitiendo que los efectos se consoliden de forma natural y progresiva.


Experiencia y Respaldo Internacional

Desde 2009, cuando el Dr. Charles Runels introdujo el uso del PRP en el rejuvenecimiento del clítoris y el techo vaginal—áreas vinculadas al conocido punto G—este tratamiento ha ganado popularidad en Estados Unidos y Europa. Los testimonios de sus pacientes reflejan una mayor excitación, orgasmos más intensos y una piel más joven y suave en la región íntima.

In Hoogstra Medical Centers, hemos perfeccionado esta técnica, adaptándola a las necesidades individuales de cada paciente. Nuestro protocolo se centra en mejorar tanto la apariencia estética como la funcionalidad de la zona genital, contribuyendo a una experiencia sexual más satisfactoria y a un bienestar integral.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty

A non-surgical rhinoplasty does not structurally modify the nose, making it better for minor changes. The ideal candidate will seek to improve small imperfections, a slight asymmetry or an excessively trimmed nose. It can also be a good way to try on a new look before undergoing a conventional rhinoplasty.

Nonsurgical remodeling of the nose is a new safe alternative and available for patients interested in improving the shape of their nose without undergoing invasive surgery.

What are the benefits of non-surgical rhinoplasty?

The advantages of nose reshaping without surgery are:

  • Faster results
  • Less healing time
  • Little or no pain

The non-surgical rhinomodeling It is a novel technique to model the nose through an outpatient procedure performed in the office with Local anesthesia, achieving excellent natural results, improving the patient's physiognomy without changing his personality, being able to continue with his daily activity the next day.

The first step to perform this procedure is to have a consultation with the Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra, since the most important thing is to make a correct evaluation. Not all patients are candidates for this type of procedure.

What does the treatment consist of?

With non-surgical rhinoplasty we can model the wing cartilage, reduce the large nasal tips, project the nasal tip with tension threads and / or improve the contour with fillers such as cross-linked hyaluronic acids. It is also possible to improve the nose-lip ratio, working on the projection and the nasolabial angle.

With this technique we not only improve the aesthetics of the nose but also that of the lip. As the human being ages and the nasal tip falls off, this technique allows us to lift it and improve the aesthetic relationship with the Lip. The same happens in very young patients who have practically no lip because the nasal length takes away the beauty that the mouth could have.

With this technique it is possible to:

  • Raise the nasal tip in young patients and in those in whom it has decreased over the years.
  • Correct unsightly deformations in patients who have undergone surgical rhinoplasties and who are not satisfied with the result.
  • Give volume to the back.
  • Project the tip of the nose.
  • Improve the angle between the lip and the nose.

With this technique it is not possible to:

  • Narrow bones of the nose, correct a wide nose.
  • Improve respiratory insufficiencies.
  • Take out a very prominent back.

Invisible lifting of the forehead, eyebrows and eyelids

Endoscopic video lifting of the forehead, eyebrows and eyelids.

The lowering of the eyebrows together with the frontal wrinkles, the eyebrows and crow's feet give the face the aspect of anger, sadness and old age. Invisible Lifting is a minimally invasive procedure whose purpose is to raise the eyebrows, remove excess skin from the upper eyelids and sometimes lift the nasal tip.

The Invisible Lifting rejuvenates the look and gives the face a more rested, happy and youthful expression. This procedure is done through a minimal hidden incision in the scalp.

Candidates for this procedure are women and men who have decreased eyebrows and excess skin on the upper eyelids. These patients generally have an expression of tiredness, sadness or anger in their eyes and the majority express that this expression does not coincide with their real state of mind.

Treatment

Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra has developed a new procedure, the “Pivoting Brow Lift” or “Pivoting Eyebrow Lift”, which avoids the scars associated with conventional resective and endoscopic surgeries.

Procedure description

The Pivoting Forehead and Eyebrow Lift repositions the eyebrows, clears the look and reduces expression wrinkles, providing significant aesthetic and functional results.

Benefits for Patients

Many patients come to the procedure due to visual difficulties, accompanied by headaches and neck pain, symptoms that Dr. Hoogstra's technique helps to alleviate.

Process and Recovery

The procedure is carried out under local anesthesia and sedation, lasting approximately 30 minutes. After the intervention, patients generally remain in the clinic for about 4 hours, where they are cared for by specialized staff before leaving. During this time, your post-operative condition is monitored and the necessary care is provided to ensure proper recovery before returning home.

Follow-up and Recovery Time

The first checkup is scheduled 7 days after the procedure, at which time the patient's progress is evaluated and additional guidance is provided as needed. Additionally, patients have constant access to medical equipment throughout the recovery process, providing peace of mind and ongoing support.

In terms of recovery time, most patients can expect to return to normal activities within 3 to 7 days after the procedure. It is important to note that this period may vary slightly depending on the individual characteristics of each patient and the extent of the procedure performed. However, in general, recovery is expected to be rapid and with minimal bruising, allowing patients to return to their daily routine promptly and comfortably.

Logistics for Foreign Patients

Foreign patients must be in Buenos Aires the day before surgery, with operating days generally scheduled on Wednesdays at 6:30 AM. The length of stay in Buenos Aires is usually approximately 10 days, although some can return to their places of origin even 48 hours after the procedure.

Dr. Hoogstra's Experience and Credentials

Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra has vast experience in this procedure, having trained at renowned institutions such as the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, USA, and collaborating with doctors at Harvard University in the use of the carbon dioxide laser.

Short bridle

When the frenulum is too short it restricts the movement of the foreskin, which causes discomfort during sexual activity.

Understanding the short frenulum: beyond phimosis

If the penis is erect and the frenulum is too short it causes the head of the penis-glans to deviate downwards. This causes pain, difficulty in penetration and can even cause tears and bleeding. These tears when healing can shorten the frenulum more and aggravate the situation. It is common to confuse the short frenulum with the phimosis, but they are different conditions. A simple examination allows you to identify the specific condition and offer appropriate solutions.

Complications

Short frenulum can lead to a number of additional complications and problems, including:

  1. Pain during sexual activity: Short frenulum can cause discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse, which can affect the patient's intimacy and quality of life.
  2. Difficulty in penetration: Due to the restriction caused by the short frenulum, penetration may be difficult or even impossible in some cases, which can affect the person's sex life and intimate relationships.
  3. Increased risk of injury: A short frenulum can increase the risk of tears or trauma during sexual activity, which can result in pain, bleeding, and even requiring medical attention.
  4. Hygiene problems: In some cases, a short frenulum can make it difficult to properly clean the genital area, which can increase the risk of infection or irritation.
  5. Psychological impact: Sexual difficulties and complications associated with short frenulum can have a negative impact on the individual's self-esteem, confidence and psychological well-being.

Frenuloplasty: short frenulum laser operation

He Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra performs this procedure under local anesthesia, which is very well tolerated by the patient. After the anesthesia is applied, a minimal incision of the frenulum is made with a Carbon Dioxide Laser. Next, 3 resorbable points are given which fall off on their own after 14 days. The procedure takes 10 minutes. Once completed, the patient continues his normal life. The procedure is not painful, nor is the recovery. It is recommended not to have sex for 20 days. After this the patient will have a normal life and sexuality.

Advantages of Laser Frenuloplasty: Optimizing the Patient Experience

The use of carbon dioxide laser in frenuloplasty offers numerous advantages for both the patient and the recovery process. These are some of the main ones:

  1. Surgical Precision: The laser allows the surgeon to make precise and controlled incisions, minimizing the risk of collateral damage to surrounding tissues.
  2. Minimal Invasion: The laser technique reduces the need for large incisions, which leads to less blood loss and faster healing time.
  3. Less Pain and Discomfort: Local anesthesia and laser precision help reduce discomfort during and after the procedure, improving the patient experience.
  4. Fast recovery: Thanks to minimal invasion and accelerated healing process, patients can return to their daily activities in a short time, minimizing the impact on their routine.
  5. Aesthetic Results: The use of laser allows for more satisfactory aesthetic results, with minimal scars and a natural appearance of the corrected frenulum.

Statistics and Facts about Short Frenulum or Frenuloplasty

According to recent medical studies, it is estimated that approximately 5% of adult men may experience some degree of frenulum brevis. This condition can cause sexual discomfort, affect quality of life, and increase the risk of injury during sexual activity. Additionally, it has been noted that frenulum brevis may be underdiagnosed due to lack of awareness about this condition.

Regarding the effectiveness of frenuloplasty, it has been shown to be a safe and effective procedure to correct short frenulum. In most cases, patients experience a significant improvement in sexual function and a reduction in associated discomfort. Studies have reported high satisfaction rates among patients undergoing frenuloplasty, with satisfactory long-term aesthetic and functional results.

Postoperative Advice and Care

After undergoing frenuloplasty, it is important to carefully follow your doctor's orders to ensure a quick and complication-free recovery. Some post-operative tips and care include:

  1. Rest and limited physical activity: It is advisable to rest and avoid strenuous activities during the first few days after surgery to allow the body to recover properly.
  2. Proper hygiene: Maintaining good genital hygiene is essential to prevent infections. It is recommended to gently wash the treated area with warm water and mild soap, avoiding rubbing or applying excessive pressure.
  3. Avoid sexual activity: It is advised to abstain from sexual intercourse for at least 2-3 weeks after frenuloplasty to allow the incision to heal completely and reduce the risk of complications.
  4. Follow the medication plan: If medications are prescribed for pain or to prevent infections, it is important to follow the medication plan as prescribed by the doctor.
  5. Monitoring for signs of complications: Watch for signs of complications such as excessive bleeding, severe swelling, fever, or increased pain, and contact your doctor if concerns arise.
