I searched diligently for almost a year on the internet and spoke with professional colleagues to find the best
teaching program and tutorial in aesthetic gynecology no matter what location. Every time I searched for teaching
programs in “cosmetic gynecology” the name of Dr. Red Alinsod would always come out. Several competing sites
offered some sort of didactic tutorial and a few surgeries but it was the sheer volume and scope of practical office
surgery, meticulous eye and artistic passion of Dr. Red that kept his teaching program on top in this field. In fact, I
found out that Dr. Red was responsible for the training of several very well known instructors in both America and
Europe who developed their programs only after spending time with Dr. Red. He is very proud of his “students.” But of
course, I wanted to be trained by the trainer directly.

I finally came to Laguna Beach in the summer of 2014 to meet him in person, and spent a week doing case after
case of amazing office based surgery. From the first hour of my preceptorship, I knew I had stumbled into a pot of
gold. All aspects were covered from detailed surgical lectures, numerous videos, labs, photography training on live
models, meeting with his very own marketing team, and more. We covered labia minoraplasty with his very own
Hybrid and Barbie techniques, lateral and vertical clitoral hood reduction, labia majora reduction, hymenoplasty,
perineoplasty, and full-length vaginoplasty. All were done awake in his office, with no IVs, and with the patient so very
comfortable and usually either taking a nap or having a pleasant conversation with us during the actual surgery. You
can’t believe it until you see it. We also covered non-surgical radiofrequency tightening and PRP use on the labial and
vaginal tissues. Truly inovative and something you will not see anywhere else in the world. His ThermiVa invention
is game changing. It can do so much that lasers cannot achieve. It was endearing to see his very best traits, undying
commitment to teach, his words of encouragement, which opened up to me a whole vision of seeing my gynecology
practice on a higher plane. It was all worth the trip, my long journey from Manila to Southcoast Orange County and
back, all alone by myself. But I experienced the most bountiful experience that I will cherish for a very long long time.
I’m looking forward to seeing him again in 2015 for even more advanced and ingenious techniques and technologies
he himself has developed. He lets me come back as often as I wish. It seems like almost all the original ideas that are
used in aesthetic gynecology have originated in beautiful Laguna Beach, California.
Lastly, Dr. Red’s staff are masters of their craft. Indeed, my stay with Maria, Diane, Marisol, and Eunice was a really
enjoyable and educational experience. Completely unforgettable.

With Warm regards,

Dr. LynLyn Miranda
