			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Oscar A. Aguirre, Fellowship-Trained Urogynecologist , Cosmetic Surgeon and Founder and Medical Director of Aguirre Specialty Care in Denver , has reached the 15-year milestone of his urogynecology practice.</p>
<p>Dr. Aguirre started his career as a urogynecologist and reconstructive pelvic surgeon in 1997 and has been the medical director of Aguirre Specialty Care since 1999.  He is an expert in addressing both women&#8217;s functional and aesthetic concerns, including vaginal prolapse, urinary incontinence, vaginal looseness and enlarged labia.  As an internationally-renowned cosmetic gynecologist, he often combines Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation and Laser Reduction Labiaplasty with his reconstructive pelvic surgeries.  Thanks to extensive training and experience in Aesthetic Body Contouring, he expertly addresses post‐pregnancy changes in the form of The Real Mommy Makeover™, which he individualizes to each patient’s needs and desires.</p>
<p>He has been named by his peers as one of Denver’s Top Doctors in the specialty of “Female Pelvic Medicine” by 5280 Magazine.</p>
<p>Dr. Aguirre states, “The last 15 years have been a very exciting time for urogynecology, (sometimes referred to as  ‘Female Pelvic Medicine &amp; Reconstructive Surgery’), as the field has advanced and attained recognition as one of the newest subspecialties by the American Board of Medical Examiners.   During this time, I have listened to the needs and concerns of women, and have evolved my practice to address the types of issues that women face, both functional and cosmetic, through all stages of life.”</p>
<p>According to Dr. Aguirre, a career highlight was his 2011 invitation to speak at the World Congress on Female and Male Cosmetic Genital Surgery, presenting to the largest association of gynecologic specialists in female cosmetic medicine and surgery in the world.  “I was delighted to share insights, training and expertise with members of this group, leaders who are at the forefront of promoting advances in the field of cosmetic gynecology.”</p>
<p>Dr. Aguirre, who is Board Certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, said the range of services offered by Aguirre Specialty Care has evolved in direct response to the concerns of his patients.  “I am first and foremost a urogynecologist,” said Dr. Aguirre, “but I have learned over the years that many types of procedures complement urogynecology.  For instance, Aguirre Specialty Care offers The Real Mommy Makeover, a set of options that look to a wide range of post-pregnancy issues that a woman may experience, from cosmetic and functional intimate concerns to body contouring needs such Liposuction, Vaser Hi Definition Liposculpture, Brazilian Butt Augmentation and Abdominoplasty.”</p>
<p>“The future is bright for the field of urogynecology and for women’s sexual and functional health, as we continue to make advances in the types of services we can offer.  My hope is that the next 15 years will be just as exciting as the last 15,” said Dr. Aguirre.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_64" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 188px"><a href="http://www.ascdenver.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Dr_-Aguirre-FINAL-NEW.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-64" title="OSCAR A. AGUIRRE, MD, FACOG " src="http://www.ascdenver.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Dr_-Aguirre-FINAL-NEW.jpg" alt="" width="178" height="249" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">OSCAR A. AGUIRRE, MD, FACOG </p></div>
<p>While motherhood can be a woman’s greatest joy, childbirth can take a serious toll – physically and emotionally.  Extra pounds, hormonal imbalances and changes in the appearance of the breasts, abdomen, labia, vagina, skin and face are all common after childbirth.  Caring for an infant – as well as toddlers to tweens to teens  – leave many women with less and less time to take care of themselves. </p>
<p>So how does a mother with little time get her body back to its pre-pregnancy shape?  While healthy habits such as a proper diet, exercise and sleep are important, sometimes they just aren’t enough to address some of the changes that occur after childbirth.  This is where The Real Mommy Makeover can help.</p>
<p>The Real Mommy Makeover is a full body solution to help you restore and rejuvenate both face and body.  At Aguirre Specialty Care each Real Mommy Makeover is customized to correct any one or combination of the following concerns:</p>
<p><strong>Cosmetic Vaginal Concerns:   </strong>A sagging or enlarged labia is a common complaint after childbirth.  <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/44/Labiaplasty---DLV®/">Labiaplasty</a> &#8211; Designer Laser Vaginoplasty<strong>®</strong> (DLV<strong>®</strong>) is an aesthetic surgical enhancement of the vaginal area that addresses tightening, reshaping, removal of fat, and other enhancements to restore and rejuvenate the appearance of the vaginal area.</p>
<p><strong>Functional Concerns </strong>– <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/54/Common-Conditions/">Functional concerns </a>such as bladder or bowel incontinence are another possible concern after childbirth.  Aguirre Specialty Care offers both surgical and non-surgical treatment options for all conditions. Dr. Aguirre, a fellowship-trained urogynecologist and preeminent pelvic surgeon, respectfully addresses these concerns and will determine an appropriate treatment based upon your diagnosis.</p>
<p><strong>Sexual Gratification:  </strong>After childbirth, the muscles, ligaments and fascia within the birth canal may weaken which may lead to decreased vaginal muscle tone.  Some women may experience vaginal looseness, and decreased sensation and pleasure.  <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/43/Laser-Vaginal-Rejuvenation®/">Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation</a><strong>®</strong> (LVR<strong>®</strong>) focuses on the reconstruction of the damaged muscles and tissues to restore the vagina to a more youthful, &#8220;pre-pregnancy&#8221; state, to increase vaginal tightness,  allowing for increased sexual gratification, and to enhance vaginal muscle tone and appearance.</p>
<p><strong>Excess Fat and Unwanted Bulges:  </strong>During pregnancy there is an average weight gain of thirty pounds.  Although much of this weight is lost, many women complain about that extra 5-10 pounds they just can’t seem to shed.  It is common for areas of excess fat to linger in the abs, hips, pubic area, thighs and arms.  <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/41/SmartLipo™-MPX/">SmartLipo™</a> and <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/42/VASER®-LipoSelection/">Vaser®</a> Liposelection are two minimally invasive body contouring treatments that remove unwanted fat from the body with less trauma and recovery time than traditional liposuction. </p>
<p><strong>Loose Skin: </strong> Sagging or loose skin is common after pregnancy especially in the abdominal area.  Skin Tyte™ is a skin tightening laser that affects the collagen deep in the skin, ultimately restoring it to its natural beauty. </p>
<p><strong>Changes in the Breasts and the Tummy:  </strong>Abdominal laxity, sagging breasts, or unwanted changes in breast size may be best addressed by procedures such as abdominoplasty, breast lift, breast augmentation, or breast reduction.  These surgeries are coordinated with a preferred plastic surgeon by the staff at Aguirre Specialty Care.</p>
<p><strong>Skin Issues: </strong>  Exhaustion, hormonal changes and unhealthy eating habits can change the tone and texture of the skin, leaving it looking dull and tired. Other common skin concerns during or after pregnancy include melasma (pregnancy mask) and hormonal acne.  Chemical peels can change the overall health, texture, and luminosity of the skin by removing dead skin cells and promoting collagen production.  A series of peels can help you regain your youthful glow.  Laser Skin Rejuvenation such as Photo Facials, Laser Skin Resurfacing and Combination Laser Peels can reverse or correct uneven skin tone, acne scarring, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles and diminish the look of pore size.  A consultation with a skincare specialist at Aguirre Specialty Care can also get you on track with an at-home skin care program to address your current skin concerns. </p>
<p><strong>Lines and Wrinkles:</strong>  Exhaustion can also increase the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and around the mouth.  BOTOX<sup>®</sup> is an excellent choice for wrinkle reduction around the eyes, while fillers such as Juvederm® replace lost volume to vertical lines above the lips and parenthesis around the mouth.   BOTOX<sup>® </sup>and facial fillers can help you look refreshed and more relaxed and take years off of your face.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Question</strong>: I am a 45 year old mother of 3 bothered by bladder leakage while laughing, coughing and exercising ever since my hysterectomy 2 years ago. Did the surgery cause this and what can I do about it?</p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: Your symptoms of stress urinary incontinence are very common in women following vaginal deliveries but not a direct cause of a hysterectomy. A <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/55/Diagnostic-Testing/">urogynecologic evaluation </a>before your hysterectomy may have identified this condition and warranted the placement of a TVT sling to prevent these symptoms from occurring.</p>
<p><strong>Question</strong>: I’m a 48 year old physician who has been bothered by the appearance of my vagina since the delivery of my children 20 years ago. I am divorced and have avoided intimacy now for over 8 years because of how long and dark my labia are. What are my surgical options and can this be performed in the office?</p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: There are only a handful of fellowship-trained urogynecologists in the world who perform vaginal rejuvenation and <a href="http://ascdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/44/Labiaplasty---DLV®/">labiaplasty</a> procedures. I perform these in the privacy of my office under local anesthesia. You would have only a few days of down time. Read testimonials from women who have been through the process and learn more at www.ASCdenver.com.</p>
<p><strong>Question</strong>: Despite a healthy diet and regular exercise program, I have a tummy pooch that I can’t get rid of. I am interested in liposuction, but don’t want to go through a major surgery. What are my options?</p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: Liposuction can now be done as an easy in-office procedure. SmartLipo™ MPX and VASER® LipoSelection are both minimally invasive, easy procedures that can be done in the comfort and privacy of our office.
