"Und gut, dann ändert man halt seinen Körper" : Intimchirurgie zwischen Medikalisierung und Rohstoffisierung
DEU, 2013Co-Authors: Meßme Anna-katharinaAbstract:"Die soziologisch vielfach diskutierten Entwicklungen des Enhancements sind im weiblichen Intimbereich angekommen. Zu den Techniken der Intimchirurgie/Female Genital Cosmetic Surgery bzw. Vaginal Rejuvenation zählen Schamlippenkorrekturen, Modellierungen des Venushügels, Vaginalverengungen, Geburtsfolgenkorrekturen und G-Punkt-Unterspritzungen. Als Plausibilisierung für jene Eingriffe werden zunehmend 'biologische Defizite' und 'medizinische Notwendigkeiten' angeführt. Eingebettet in einen Kontext von Medikalisierung und Entgrenzung sowie der Rohstoffisierung von Körpern entstehen hier neue medizinische Technologien des Selbst. Diskursanalytisch reflektiert der Beitrag den Möglichkeitsrahmen, der von IntimchirurgInnen in ihren Werbetexten eröffnet wird, und analysiert, wie hier neu geschaffene Freiheitspotenziale eine Wahlverwandtschaft ein gehen mit sedimentierten Vorstellungen von Weiblichkeit und den ökonomisierten Rhetoriken und Techniken der Selbstverwirklichung." (Autorenreferat)"The sociologically much debated developments in the field of beauty enhancement have reached the female genitals. Techniques of female genital cosmetic surgery and vaginal rejuvenation include labiaplasty (labia reduction and beautification), Mons Pubis reduction, vaginaplasty (vaginal tightening and vaginal reconstruction after birth) and G-spot amplification. 'Biological defects' and 'medical necessity' are used to legitimize these operations. Embedded in the context of medicalization, blurring boundaries and the commodification of bodies, new medical technologies of the Self are emerging. Using the approach of discourse analysis, this paper reflects on the framework of possibilities opened up by genital surgeons through their advertisements. Additionally, it analyzes how newly-created potentials of freedom enter elective affinities with sedimented perceptions of femininity and economized rhetoric and self-realization techniques."

Antiretroviral treatment-associated labia majora lipohypertrophy: A rare case and plastic surgical treatment options
Journal of Clinical and Health Sciences Universiti Teknologi MARA, 2016Co-Authors: Jawatankuasa Kerja Psm UitmAbstract:The emergence of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has revolutionized the prognosis of HIV-infected patients. However, the extended use of HAART is associated with a disfiguring complication termed lipodystrophy, a disorder of body fat maldistribution causing peripheral fat loss (lipoatrophy) and central fat accumulation (lipohypertrophy). Lipoatrophy commonly affects the face, legs, buttocks and arm, whilst lipohypertrophy frequently favours the abdomen, breast and dorsocervical region. To our knowledge, we present only the second documented case in the literature of a labia majora lipohypertrophy in a HIV-positive patient receiving long-term HAART. The severity of labial abnormality caused significant physical and functional morbidities. Labiaplasty with dermolipectomy of the labia majora and excisional lipectomy of the Mons Pubis was successfully performed. At a 6-month follow-up, patient had no recurrence with resolution of symptoms and resumption of normal activities of daily living (ADL)

Acne inversa: an epidemiologic study by the Adnexa Group
2009Co-Authors: Maria Pia De Padova, Gabriella Fabbrocini, Daniele Innocenzi, Giuseppe Micali, Giuseppe Monfrecola, Antonella Tosti, Stefano VeraldiAbstract:Hidradenitis suppurativa – also known as acne inverse – is a chronically relapsing inflammatory disease that is characterized by recurrent draining sinuses and abscesses, fistulas and scarring. Different from acne vulgaris, acne inversa is localized in non-facial regions, where there are terminal and pigmented hairs and apocrine glands, as in the axillae, groins, perineum, Mons Pubis and scalp. Treatment options include antiseptics, corticosteroids and antibiotics, such as tetracycline, clindamycin or rifampicin. Unfortunately, they have all been tried with limited success and recurrence after stopping the therapy are very comMons, making the disease a source of frustration for dermatologist and patient alike. Surgical excision and drainage or exteriorization of individual lesions may be useful in the large nodular lesions. Carbon dioxide laser excision is another treatment option. In the last years several studies have showed the effectiveness of etanercept in the treatment of acne inverse. Etanercept would be a safe and effective therapy for hidradenitis suppurativa and decrease the extent of the disease and improves the quality of life. Future studies are indicated to elucidate fully the role of etanercept in the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa
