Process & Results
Clitoral Hood Reduction
Refined Clitoral Hood Reduction
Dr. Brenner has refined the in-office Clitoral Hood Reduction in Cincinnati using the Pronox (inhaled nitrous oxide ) device and microtumescent local anesthesia.
Clitoral Hood Reduction is typically performed with local anesthesia and oral sedation; IV sedation is also available, if preferred, in our AAAASF accredited office surgical suite. Benefits of local anesthesia include decrease risk of complications from general anesthesia, quicker recovery and cost savings.
Ellman Surgitron
Dr. Brenner utilizes the Ellman Surgitron, a unique instrument that has a cool tip, so thermal damage to the underlying tissue is able to be minimized or even eliminated.
Precise Cutting
The Surgitron is unparalleled in its finesse and no-touch technique. The Ellman Surgitron provides superior precision and cutting (compared to a scalpel), less thermal injury, thereby promoting faster and less painful healing.
Self-Dissolvable
All sutures used in Clitoral Hood Reduction are self-dissolvable and disappear within 6 weeks. Individual or interrupted sutures are used. Many other surgeons use a running technique to save time, this leads to a scalloped appearance to the incision line. The procedure takes approximately 60 minutes.

Paired Treatments
Pairing treatments can get you dramatic results
The overall appearance of the labia majora, minora and perinea can be altered to enhance your results. Clitoral Hood Reduction in Cincinnati is commonly paired with Labiaplasty. This is because as the labia are reduced in size, the clitoral hood may appear and feel larger. By combining the two procedures, an individual’s results are enhanced. Most Cosmetic Gynecology procedures at our office can be combined to help save you time on recovery and appointments. Interested in learning more or scheduling your consultation?
