Dr. Alinsod has played a pivotal role in advancing aesthetic vulvovaginal surgery, founding the groundbreaking “CAVS” (Congress for Aesthetic Vulvovaginal Surgery) in 2005 and establishing himself as a trailblazer in this ever-evolving field. His innovative contributions encompass pioneering techniques such as radiofrequency labiaplasty for the minora, introducing procedures like the “Barbie” and Hybrid Look labiaplasty, and inventing transformative approaches like the Medial Curvilinear Labia Majoraplasty, central and lateral clitoral hood reductions. Beyond surgical innovation, Dr. Alinsod's expertise extends to non-surgical feminine restoration, addressing a spectrum of concerns including stress incontinence, overactive bladder, atrophic vulvovaginitis, orgasmic dysfunction, vulvar dystrophy, and the modern management of menopausal symptoms. Moreover, his development of the combination Pudenal-Levator Block for In-Office Awake/No IV labiaplasty and vaginoplasty has been disseminated globally through his teachings, impacting practitioners worldwide.
