I had been having significant issues with pelvic laxity for over 10 years; cystocele, vagicele, enterocele ad rectocele. I finally decided to have an evaluation and treatment in 2015. This started with another healthcare provider 2 years ago who offered “just urinate more often”. I found Dr. Aguirre last year, had a complete evaluation, but due to circumstances with insurance, finances and the ability to take time off work was not able to have surgery until a year later (9/2017). Dr. Aguirre and his staff were very accommodating to my needs including re-doing several prior authorizations for testing. I am a medical provider with 23 years of experience and I cannot say that I have had better care and his office sets an example of medical professionalism. I needed special accommodations in my management due to another health issue and this was taken seriously by both Dr. Aguirre and my anesthesiologist; I came through without even a hint of the serious complications that could have arisen if they had not been so caring and diligent. Thank you Dr. Aguirre and staff for your expertise.
Transformational! I just had my procedure this morning (labiaplasty, clitoral hood reduction, and anal tag removal). The experience was amazingly easy from my first consultation and now having gone through the surgery itself. I was awake and comfortable throughout the procedure. I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr.Aguirre and his entire team...what professionals. Being in the medical profession myself, I without any reservations highly recommend Aguirre Specialty Care for all your intimate aesthetic needs.
Being able to find a doctor that can help my problem with oversized labia was something I was uncomfortable about searching for and talking about. Aguirre Specialty Care is a absolutely professional, clean, friendly, supportive, and helpful experience. I would recommend his practice to anyone in need of medical assistance.
This website inspired me and encourage me to take back what was mine...I read other's story's some success's and some not. I am sharing my story in return to those that have inspired me. After years of searching for the "Perfect" Doctor - I found Dr. Aguirre and his staff. I contacted their office in Englewood, CO approximately 2 weeks prior to my surgery, which I have tomorrow. I spoke with Wendy Haynes (patient care coordinator) - I found myself finding it very difficult to say the words associated with my problem areas, but out of know where she was REAL, UNDERSTANDING, COMPASSIONATE – you could tell this is what she wanted to do, help woman love themselves again…I explained to her that I wanted to have the surgery ASAP – I was READY! But I also had to be smart about how I planned out my surgery, so I could keep it a secret. Wendy explained to me that it would be a six-week (no sex) healing process. An appointment came out of know where – I jumped as high as I possibly could and took it - I knew then that it was more perfect and the right time and place to have my procedures done. With being an out of state patient, Wendy said I could send photographs of my “Bottom” area for the doctor to review. At first I thought, how am I going to take pictures of something I can hardly bare to look at myself. But when I did – again it made me realize how badly I wanted this. I took several pictures of my front end (standing, sitting, laying down, open legged etc.…) and off they went. I researched Aguirre Specialty Care and all the procedures offered under “cosmetic gynecology” when I sent off the picture - I felt like I needed them all, Labiaplasty, anal tag removal, clitoral hood reduction w/ clitoropexy…I wanted to go for it – to feel worthy of making love and being confident in my body. I find myself tearing up writing this…out of mere happiness and excitement – that MY time has finally come…and I have found the perfect STAFF and the perfect DOCTOR… I traveled to Denver Monday night – and had my consultation with Dr. Aguirre and his staff Tuesday afternoon. I finally got to meet the “WENDY” on the other line; she was as amazing in person as she was walking me through the process over the phone. It was a though the staff became my family and support group. Now meeting Dr. Aguirre – oh boy – I was like a 12-year-old girl meeting a boy for the first time on steroids. Even though I know he has seen thousands of women like me, he made me feel like his first. There is something about having to put your legs in stirrup’s and open those bad boy’s, initially I shook, okay I shook the entire time…especially for the first time in my life – I was being analyzed in my entirety in an area so intimate and personal to me. It wasn’t until Dr. Aguirre handed me a mirror and walked me through every inch of my bottom…I couldn’t believe it, what he explained and how he was going to make the corrections, was breath taking. I thought I was excited for surgery – he pumped me up for the WORLD SERIES! I knew without a doubt from the moment I meant him – he was perfect for me and how lucky I was to find him and his staff. It’s the day before surgery – I am empowered to be the woman I know I can be…to walk confidentially out of my under wear – bare and all…I am so going to strut all of me and make love to the man I love like never before. I am less than 24 hours from making a change I have dreamt of longer than I will ever even know. Here is to my journey and all those future journeys that one-day you might just have the COURAGE to take. Updated on 17 Nov 2016: Today was the day!!! In the most simplistic way possible describing my experience from the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out - SCARED. To change something so intimate on one's body is the most trusting thing someone can do. The staff was incredible and treated me like a princess the entire time. What I respected about Dr. Aguirre during my procedure the most was the commitment and time he took to ensure the best possible results he could give. I know without a doubt he put more than 100% into my procedure and created a beautiful butterfly that soon I will be able to enjoy. I did elect to have PRP (platelet rich plasma) injected in the area, PRP is a concentration of platelet cells taken from your blood, and these platelets have growth factors that may help in the healing process. I am thrilled to see the results as many of you can imagine and sharing my recovery progress. The overall procedure was painless, minor pinches here and there, but in all bearable. The most sensitive part of the entire procedure was having my anal tag removed. By all means it was never so painful I couldn’t manage the pricks and stings, but what made it manageable was Dr. Aguirre and RN Brandi always ensured a pain free and comfortable environment, accommodating me at times when it was a bit uncomfortable. Believe it or not I had fun…enjoyed a few laughs and jokes, (I might even have named my anal tag)…but bye bye “Tucker”. Isn’t this really what it is all about, easing the way of what could be a very uncomfortable experience to feeling like your part of their team. I chose not to upload post op photographs today- really it isn’t about all the stiches and swelling, its being able to look at the big picture overall. I will be posting weekly photographs of my recovery in stages, along with some of the obstacles and successes along the way. I look forward to sharing my journey with all of YOU… Updated on 23 Nov 2016: As promised...today I had my stitches removed and wow what a blessing, it was such a relief. Again this is just one week of recovery, I can't wait to share next week! Updated on 29 Nov 2016: I am feeling great...I stopped taking Tylenol a couple days after getting my stitches removed (day 8). My vulva is still a bit swollen and left side of my clitoral hood, but every week it seems to be getting better and better. The can still feel the stitching inside the top area of my clitoral hood area is Updated on 30 Nov 2016: This picture is taken in the same fashion I took the initial before surgery photography, opening my legs. It shows the overall opening and area the doctor performed perneoplasty, the removal of the perineal skin near the opening. Updated on 23 Dec 2016: I was so excited to see my doctor at 6 weeks to see how my healing overall is progresssing. I still have minor swelling near the incision site on the top of my clitoral hood, but overall healing each day. I am excited to see how my hood area ultimately heals at 3 months, the verdict is still out for me. But When I look at the before and after pictures I am truly amazed at the changes that have been made. I am so thankful!
After already having gone through the amazing life-changing experience of having Dr. Aguirre do extensive internal repairs (I had advanced rectocele, and uterine prolapse and thus had a vaginaplasty during that surgery), I now have a labiaplasty scheduled for Thursday!! Cannot believe it! They had a last minute opening for a procedure and I am going for it! I went to my pre-op yesterday with Brandy, Dr. Aguire and Jackie. (On a side note, I could not stop staring at Brandy-Dr. Aguirre's aesthetic nurse- during pre-op..She is my age and looks 28, so people, go to HER for skin and dermal asthetic stuff... She is stunning, and can work magic!) And good Lord..between Brandy, Andrea, Wendy and Jackie, it's like Charlie's Angels (plus one) there. Lol. All are gorgeous and look cast out of a TV show.;-) Dr. Aguirre was as charming and handsome as he is professional and easy going, as usual. For the second time, I was shocked by how he is able to minimize the mortification factor of having measurements and pics (of my giant labia and hood) taken. Truly, he has the best "bedside manner" a surgeon could possibly have, especially when dealing with such a touchy set of body parts and issues. Between Brandy, Dr. Aguirre and Jackie, they all made me feel absolutely comfortable and (key word), SAFE... both talking about my issues and exposing myself physically. This is SO rare. That alone (of course, in combination with his craft), is worth using Dr. Aguirre for ANY vaginal rejuvenation surgeries. Anyway, I am super excited for Dr. Aguirre to work his magic on my "outsides". I am tired of having soreness and swelling after long days at work with my long and large labia rubbing against everything. I am equally excited to not have to move them out of the way for comfortable sex...(or, in pleasuring myself, not having to move skin aside to find my best spots.;-). We also decided that, during the procedure (which is in-office), he will give me the "O-Shot" and remove a couple minor skin tags. He literally changed my life with my first surgery with him. He not only has me feeling young again (and I AM young and have a lot of years of sexual experiences in front of me so to have felt otherwise for so long was crushing); he also brought my vagina back to it's pre-baby size and shape. Sex is a whole different experience! Almost like being a virgin again. Having said that, it has been weird since the prior surgery to feel 20 everywhere else and then still have the labia and hood of an 80 year old. Additionally, the discomfort this causes is not fun (and a daily issue.) Since the first time I consulted with him, I have been beyond excited to have this amazing talent be the one to do work on such an important part of my body. Now he will complete what he started in the best way I can imagine! :-) To illustrate how superb Dr. Aguirre's technique is, when I learned last minute that they were fitting me in, I quickly googled "labiaplasty pictures". When I looked at the thumbnails on my phone, I scrolled through all of them, then picked one that was a combo of what I thought looked most like me in the "before" and then also had the prettiest "after." To my utter astonishment, when I tapped it, I opened up the full Realself link and in reading the review, scrolled down to find out that HE was the surgeon! In this entire country, I happened to pick the work of MY surgeon! Also, for girls who are considering this procedure but are not in Colorado: I learned yesterday that Dr. Aguirre gives a travel credit! So...whatever people spend on plane tickets, for instance, he will discount that (or a portion of it) from the surgery, if one has to travel to use his expertise! I thought that was awesome. I don't need it (because I am here), but for anyone looking for the BEST surgeon to touch your body (irrespective of distance), in a way that will literally alter your entire life, that is worth considering! (Now I can recommend him to my out-of-town friends who have shared the same issues with me!) I only have two befores, but apologies in advance for how scary they are.;-) The one he took makes me cringe. (It also illustrates why this is so darn uncomfortable.) Will update after tomorrow! Updated on 29 Oct 2015: Imagine how this mess gets in the way of..err..everything. thank GOD i am able to do this for myself. So grateful to my doc and his amazing team. Updated on 29 Oct 2015: Such an amazing experience. John Mayer and Ray piped in, Dr. Aguirre is explaining everything he does as he goes. He took an hour on my hood alone! Brandy massages your legs lightly when you feel random pinches. Dr. Aguirre is a delight. He is such a perfectionist that he has taken a couple hours at this point. I am totally lucid and their rapport and sweetness in explaining what they are doing is incredible. Here he is!:-) Updated on 29 Oct 2015: The O-Shot in Denver, CO uses Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) which is extracted from the patient’s own blood and injected into the clitoris and the anterior vaginal wall, proximal to the G-spot. The O-Shot adds volume to the treated area, in turn increasing sensation and sensitivity. Injections are quick and little pain, if any, is experienced due to the area being numbed prior to the injections. After a few weeks, the stems cells and tissues in the injected areas grow and regenerate, causing an increase in blood flow and tissue rejuvenation in the clitoris and vaginal walls. PRP treatments have proven to be effective in creating a fuller, younger-looking appearance in other areas of the body such as the face. As PRP for facial rejuvenation (also known as the Vampire Facelift®) became increasingly popular, it expanded into other, more intimate areas – creating The O-Shot. The Denver O-Shot is for women of all ages who suffer from dull vaginal sensation, vaginal looseness due to age or childbirth, women who have never had an orgasm and women looking to improve sensation during sex. The O-Shot can also help with urinary incontinence and women suffering from common sexual disorders. Because The O-Shot utilizes Platelet-Rich Plasma from a person’s own blood and is not a chemical or synthetic substance, it is completely safe. The O-Shot at Aguirre Specialty Care helps: Increase sexual desire, arousal and libido Tighten the vaginal opening Decrease painful intercourse Create stronger and more frequent orgasms Increase ability for vaginal orgasms Increase vaginal lubrication Decrease urinary incontinence Women experiencing sexual disorders such as: Dyspareunia, Female Orgasmic Disorder, Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder and Female Sexual Arousal Disorder Updated on 29 Oct 2015: Updated on 29 Oct 2015: Incredibly grateful to Dr. Aguirre, Jackie and Brandy. Unbelievable experience. Laughter, casual amosphere, great msuic, amazing caretaking.. 4 houts later, pain is kicking in, but it's a biting, stinging. (4 on a scale of 1-10.) I just took 1000 mgs of Tylenol and am going to bed. Thanking the angels for making this happen so beautifully for me.. And thanking GOD for Dr. Aguirre and team for being so amazing! Updated on 31 Oct 2015: Two days post...i thought I would have to refrain from Trick or Treating this evening, but I feel great! On Tylenol only and, after an initial first night of burning and stinging, felt NO pain and slept like a baby last night. Only discomfort is when I pee and forget I have to dab.:-) and when my labia rub against the pad. Thats a minor annoyance, but not painful at ALL! So far, everything about this experience has been as good as it could possibly be! Updated on 4 Nov 2015: It definitely is harder to baby it when you ar sitting at a desk all day. Monday thru Wednesday ate days 4 thru 6..and ironically the sweeling is worse than 1thru 3rd day because if the work factor. I would HIGHLY recommend taking a whole week off of you can. Updated on 6 Nov 2015: Just got my sutures out !! What a relief! I had been prepared for it to be incredibly painful based on some reviews on here, but Brandy (his nurse) has as expert a touch as he does. I literally only FELT EVEN TWO OF THEM. And those were only momentary pinches. She is amazing! The minute I put my clothes back on, it felt totally different. No more unconfortable rubbing!! She also.showed me what I look like which tickled me. It's getting prettier and prettier. I am following the dictate to not over-look at her too much. Lol. So haven't seen it much in the last few days. Updated on 13 Dec 2015: I had my 6 week check up on Thursday. Got the go ahead to "play". I had gotten the O-Shot (in my clitoris and G spot) during my labiaplasty as it promotes healing and sensitivity. Let's just say that I have NEVER had the G-spot sensitivity I have right now..in my entire life... (even before babies and pelvic floor fallout.) Have always mainly achieved orgasms thru clitoral stimulation (I'd say about 85%). It is now EASY TO achieve them vaginally. Haha!! I feel like a kid in a candy shop!! Thank you Dr. AGUIRRE. Good lord. I joked that there's a possibility God actually might be a woman, because who else would placed someone on earth to give us perfect vaginas? Lol Updated on 28 Feb 2016: All in all, feeling okay. Still get intermittent swelling and pressure down there after 7 months. Dr. Aguirre is going to do a very minor revision on my right labia minora as there is assymetry, but it's still so much better than before. And am happy to report the O shot now has never getting G-spot sensation and vaginal orgasms for the first time ever!
