SURPRISE!

Plastic surgery on your labia is harmful! The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons are both saying that vaginal rejuvenation and cosmetic methods of altering the vagina "are unproven and potentially risky, and that medical claims about results are exaggerated."

"To do this for cosmetic reasons, and to say it will improve sexual fulfillment is totally absurd," says Thomas Stovall, past president of the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons and a clinical professor at the University of Tennessee at Memphis.

They cite Dr. 90210's David Matlock for popularizing cosmetic surgery for female genitals. It's a little beyond me why anyone would really want to undergo a procedure that quite often leads to "infection, scarring, nerve damage and loss of sensation," but let's keep in mind that Dr. David Matlock is the same doctor that:

• almost had his license revoked by The Medical Board of California in 1998 for alleged "insurance fraud, dishonesty and negligent care to two patients" (State Records of California)

• Was placed on probation for four years in 2000

Are we really surprised that this is the man who's performed over 3,000 surgeries, and trained 140 doctors?
