Even if you don’t have a dimple in your chin it’s at least good to have chin that is visible. Many people have a weak chin that almost suppresses the other beautiful features of a face. A weak chin gives an odd look to your face and sometimes looks like a defect. Chin augmentation is one of the facial problems faced by many people throughout the world of which most people are unaware that this kind of augmented chin can be corrected easily. For those who are not aware of this, trust me, yes there is a permanent solution for this problem. This problem is generally referred as ‘weak chin’. This is purely considered undesirable only because of the appearance it gives in a person’s face. This can be rectified by increasing the chin projection.

Cosmetic Surgery Practices – Acne and Hair removal Treatment

Monday, February 21st, 2011

Acne is a common occurrence in teenagers and young adults, due to hormonal factors. Due to some reasons, it occurs in adults too. This condition can be helped by using ointments, creams, good diet and proper stress control. Acne can lower self-confidence of people  and can make them feel inferior. A simple way of treating acne would be the LASER method, which helps eradicate the acne. The procedure is growing attractive and is totally effective. One advantage of this treatment is that it only targets the location where the acne exists and doesn’t harm the good skin around. It is a favorable alternative to ointments and creams which can at times be messy or expensive, or both. LASER also builds healthy tissue and new skin cells. It doesn’t cause any infection or bleeding at all as only the damaged tissue is removed, leaving the rest behind. Painkillers can be used to relieve pain.

Unwanted hair can be a real menace for both men and women. The regular methods of hair removal are not that effective and even time consuming. The usual treatments i.e. waxing and shaving are costly or painful. Tweezing tends to cause itchy skin and irritates the body. However, LASER can be used for this, but is both expensive and requires the patient to attend multiple sessions. An unconventional method of hair removal is the IPL – Intense Pulsed Laser, a latest advancement. This method is both less painful and quick. It is performed by trimming the hair to a very short length and a gel is applied all over the area from where the hair is to be removed. Then, a device shaped like a wand is used to remove the hair. This technique is non-invasive and can be performed on all types of skin.

Not only for hair removal process, IPL can also be used for treating certain skin diseases. Redness and swelling may occur at the site of function but it is normal. The process is quick- just a 15 minute session is good enough. There are no harmful side effects as there are no chemicals involved and only light is used, which is converted into heat to remove the hair follicles.

In spite of the growing popularity of various types of cosmetic surgery, caution should be taken while adapting to any procedure. Proper consultation with a skilled, experienced practitioner is suggested.

Elle Magazine - Elle Beauty - The New Laser

An excerpt from Elle Magazine:

“THE NEW LASER

Jenny Dickinson tests Advanced Laser Lipolysis at The Cosmetic Surgery Clinic.

The treatment:

Apparently, I’m an ideal candidate for this type of surgery as I exercise often but just can’t shift the pockets of fat on my flanks. Dr Kingdon, my surgeon, makes tiny incisions to introduce a saline solution and laser, which ‘melts’ my fat. He then sucks out the liquefied fat and uses the laser again to help my skin tighten. It’s not painful, but I can feel the heavy pushing and pulling and Dr Kingdon forces the tiny tubes underneath my skin. I leave two hours later, leaking saline and wrapped in a girdle.

The results:

when I remove the girdle, I can see that my shaped has changed: the deposits of fat are gone. But, for two weeks, I’m badly bruised and the swelling means I’m actually bigger than before. Plus, I have to keeo the girdle on. I’m not in pain, but I’m uncomfortable. After six weeks, the swelling has reduced but I’m still quite tender. Three months on, the tenderness has gone and my shape is transformed.”

The Benefits of Acne Treatment

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Acne is the bane of existence for many teenagers and adults. It usually can be managed with topical creams and ointments and good diet and stress control. When a person’s self-confidence is lowered because of acne, they will often retreat from social interaction. Laser acne treatment is an effective solution when topical ointments and soaps are not working. Laser stands for “Light Amplification by Simulated of Radiation.” These treatments can eradicate the acne and allow a person to raise their personal outlook and help them feel better about themselves. The benefit of laser acne treatment makes it a very attractive option that is worth the cost.

Laser acne treatment only targets the areas of skin affected by acne, leaving the healthy skin untouched. Acne not only affects the face, but also the chest and back and other areas that may be hard to reach to apply an ointment. This procedure eliminates the need to even apply any ointments or creams, which could be messy, expensive, and could dry out the healthy skin if it gets on it. There are only minor possible side effects such as redness and swelling at the treatment site. These effects usually diminish with 24 hours. Laser acne treatment not only gets rid of pimples, but also helps build healthy tissue and new skin cells in the treated area.

The procedure is short and simple and it lasts only for a few minutes to an hour with no serious complications. A qualified, licensed dermatologist or other medical staff should perform this procedure. A laser beam is aimed at the affected area. This laser amplifies light, which causes it to burn away the bacteria that causes acne that accumulates within the skin tissue and shrink the oil-producing glands. New tissue and skin cells are then caused to grow. There is little to no pain or discomfort during the procedure, and it’s only used on the affected skin, the healthy skin remains intact. Acne treatment is completely non-invasive with virtually no risk of infection or bleeding.

Laser treatment is also used to remove scars that resulted from previous bouts with acne. The damaged tissue is removed and the collagen fiber that is found in skin that gives it the plumpness is tightened in order to fill in the indentations left behind by the removed tissue. Depending on the severity of the scarring, only a few treatments would be needed spaced over a period of four to six weeks. Some patients see results after only two or three treatments. Pain killers or sedation may be employed to reduce any pain experienced during the procedure.

Price for laser acne treatment varies. With fast results with little to no pain and rapid healing time makes this service a good investment in your personal appearance and overall self-confidence. There are several home laser kits on the market that touts near-dermatological results, but in order to get premium results, it is always wise to consult medical staff who is well-trained in administering acne laser treatments.
