Funded Activity Summary

An increasing number of women are seeking to alter the appearance of their genitals through unproven cosmetic surgery. There are no options besides surgery for women concerned about their genitals. I propose to develop and evaluate an online psychological program which aims to assist these women. If found to be effective, the program could be used throughout Australia and internationally, potentially reducing the total number of women undergoing genital cosmetic surgery.
