Cosmetic surgeon goes down on females
[Excerpt] Christopher A. Warner says he considers himself something of a maverick, a caring physician willing to challenge medical orthodoxy in order to help women.
That’s why the 39-year-old board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist recently opened the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of Washington in a red brick townhouse off Washington Circle. There, he is building a business as the first area physician to perform controversial procedures that use a laser to enhance sexual gratification by repairing tissue damaged by childbirth, to give women a “youthful aesthetic look” or to make those who are not appear to be virgins.
Warner’s fledgling rejuvenation practice, experts say, exemplifies physicians’ entry into what some have termed the “last frontier” of plastic surgery — a realm where medical ethics collide with culture, commerce and technology.
