HCG or human chorionic gonadotropin is used to promote weight loss along with a low glycemic diet and exercise program.

Self-administered daily subcutaneous injections or as a daily cream applied to the wrists, HCG can facilitate significant weight reduction by lowering hunger and enhancing well-being.  Patients on HCG are more apt to remain on a low calorie diet.

What is age management medicine?  Sounds a bit mystical and unscientific.  But is it?

“Nothing can stop aging, but we can slow it down and improve quality of life as we age,” said Dr. Randy Birken, founder of Birken Medical Aesthetics of The Woodands.It’s nothing like snake-oil, just good nutrition, healthy life style, and exercise … but testing for hormone deficiences as well as assessing nutritional and fitness status allows the clinician to make proper supplementation recommendations as well as prescribing natural hormones for optimal functioning.”

Dr. Randy Birken has completed his clinical training with Cenegenics Medical Institute and will be offering this prestigious executive health evaluation and age management program to Houston-The Woodlands, Texas as well as Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

“This is an exciting new dimension to our practice.  While I have always incorporated the concept of diet, exercise, supplements, and hormone optimization for healthy aging, the Cenegenics program is comprehensive, advance, and effective.”

Dr. Birken will be certified with the Cenegenics Education and Research Foundation, a non-profit organization promoting medical training in age management.

Vaginal Rejuvenation (Tightening) and Laser Labiaplasty

[ No Comments ] Posted on 06.09.09 under Houston, Texas, The Woodlands, Uncategorized, Vaginal rejuvenation, cosmetic gynecology, designer laser vaginoplasty, labia Reduction, labiaplasty, laser vaginal rejuvenation, vaginal tightening

Many gynecologists and plastic surgeons offer techniques to improve sexual responsiveness, but which techniques are best?

“Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation, designed by Dr. David Matlock of Dr.90210 fame, incorporates precise laser surgery to restore pelvic anatomy,” says Dr. Randy Birken, founder of Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation of The Woodlands, Texas.  “His concepts are based on sound physiologic and anatomic principles, a proven procedure.”

In the cosmetic world, controversies always exist about surgical techniques.  What’s better, safer, and more aesthetically pleasing.   Such is the case with labiaplasty procedures and the popularity of Dr. David Matlock’s Designer Laser Vaginoplasty (DLV).

Excess labial tissue, caused by childbirth and aging, requires precise surgical reconstruction, but most plastic surgeons advocate scalpel excision based on traditional surgical principles.  Why and how is Dr. Matlock’s DLV different?

First, Dr. Matlock is a gynecologist and promotes vaginal reconstructive skills based on sound anatomic and physiologic concepts.  Second, and most importantly, is the use of the laser allowing for minimal tissue trauma, quicker healing, and more pleasant appearing outcomes.

“Dr. Matlock’s approach incorporates not only laser reduction of the labia, but improvement of the prepuce, the area outside the clitoral hood, an area most plastic surgeons are uncomfortable repairing,” Dr. Randy Birken said.  Dr. Birken is an associate of the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute and personally trained by Dr. Matlock.

“Women who seek labiaplasty must research the surgeon’s approach before committing to the procedure,” Dr. Birken added.  “If attention is not paid to the entire external genitalia, cosmetic results will be compromised. That’s why Designer Laser Vaginoplasty (DLV) has a significant advantage over traditional labiaplasty surgery.”

Dr. Birken is a board certified gynecologist and Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas

Labial Reduction (labiaplasty) - Laser Surgery in Houston-The Woodlands, Texas

While labiaplasty techniques vary, most patients need to know what part of the external genitalia is addressed during this cosmetic procedure.

“Unfortunately, most women are not informed about the different areas that need to be improved for the best results,” says Dr. Randy Birken, founder of Birken Medical Aesthetics of The Woodlands, Texas.  “Some surgeons just reduce the labial minora, or the inner lips.  But a complete labiaplasty procedure involves reduction of the prepuce, the area surrounding the clitoris, as well.”

Dr. Birken is an associate of the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of America and has trained with Dr. David Matlock of Dr. 90210 fame.

“It’s important to assess the entire vulva region for cosmetic enhancements, otherwise final results may be compromised, leading to patient dissatisfaction.”
