Description
A clear and compassionate medical guide to help you understand your condition and learn about the treatments that really work.
It includes real images and photos of patients to help provide a better understanding of vulvar Lichen Sclerosus
Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus is a chronic, inflammatory, and silent condition that affects millions of women worldwide. However, it remains largely unknown, is often misdiagnosed, and, all too often, is endured in silence.
This book was created to break that silence and offer a clear, thorough, and accessible explanation.
The Dr. Patricia Gutiérrez Ontalvilla —a plastic surgeon, researcher, and international pioneer in the use of stem cells and vascular stromal fraction (SVF) to treat Lichen Sclerosus through her Liquenia Treatment®—shares here more than a decade of clinical and scientific experience to help both patients and healthcare professionals gain a deeper understanding of this disease.

This book is an invitation to learn more, take care of yourself, and never give up.
