Moles Removal by Laser

As we’ve seen above, laser surgery is a fantastic way to have nuisance moles removed without scarring, downtime or much pain either. However, using a laser to remove moles, skin tags or even warts is usually reserved for the cases that can benefit the most from it. This includes non-cancerous, shallow or above-skin moles, when the patient can afford the procedure.

At The KEMPS Skin Clinic, our team of highly skilled skin care professionals are trained to use the latest techniques and technology to remove suspect moles.

Can moles be removed by laser?

In short, yes. Some types of moles can be remove with the help of  laser  by a trained professional. Previously, lasers weren’t quite effective in removing moles due to technology limitations, which has improved significantly over the years. The main problem was due to the fact that these lasers weren’t able to penetrate the skin deep enough to fully remove a mole.

With the latest improvements in laser technology, we are now able to penetrate deep enough into the skin and with enough power to remove moles without surgery!  A quick visit with us can determine if you’re a candidate for laser mole removal.

Is laser mole removal safe?

When performed by trained professionals, such as the providers here at The Dermatology Specialists, it’s perfectly safe and in most cases, the best option depending on the type or mole.

Post laser mole removal care:

Your laser mole removal procedure takes approximately 30 minutes altogether depending on the number and size of the mole(s) being removed.

Immediately following your laser treatment, you may notice a small red mark around the area where your mole was removed.

From there, your mole will scab over and after about 10 to 14 days, the scab will fade until you’re left with a smooth pink mark, which will usually fade with time.

Caring for your mole wound over the course of a couple weeks post-treatment will be the same as caring for any other small cut. Wash with care, DON’T pick at it, and let your skin heal naturally.

Alovera and its skin benefit

If you’ve ever spent a bit too much time in the sun, you’re probably very aware of one of the many benefits of Aloe vera.

In addition to its cooling and soothing properties on sunburnt skin, it’s also an all-natural, super-hydrating ally to your everyday skin and hair care routines!

Lucky for us, Aloe vera is inexpensive, versatile, and easy to find at your local shopes, Drug store, and even home& Kitech gardens.

This unsuspecting pulpy plant is very easy to apply to your skin and has a light, non-greasy, hydrating “formula”.

·         Aloe vera gel contains 96% water!

·         All the extra power is packed into the remaining 4%.

·         No wonder it’s so hydrating!

·         Aloe vera has been used for centuries.

 

Six thousand years old carvings of the plant have been discovered in Egypt, where it was considered the “Plant of immortality”.

It’s rumored that even Cleopatra used aloe vera to protect her royal skin from the desert heat and dryness.

It has been used to treat wounds and even help with digestion when ingested as it serves as a mild laxative.

Due to its ability to grow in even the driest environments and its many healing benefits for the body, inside and out, it can now be procured worldwide.

Benift of using Aloe Vera

·         Reduce Wrinkles and Signs of Aging

·         The aloe vera plant has been effective at treating first and second-degree burns, which includes most sunburns.

·         Brighten Skin and Reduce Hyperpigmentation

·         Rather than leaving a heavy, sometimes oily feeling on your skin, aloe is clear, lightweight, and soothing moisturizers.

·         Aloe vera contains salicylic acid, which helps to gently dry acne while providing anti-inflammatory benefits to reduce redness and inflammation to irritated acne.

·         Aloe helps to heal scratches and other small wounds on the face and body by boosting collagen and fighting bacteria.

·         Aloe Vera can also be used in the case of more extreme skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema.

How to Apply Pure Aloe as a Moisturizer:

Aloe alone can make a great, clean substitute for your everyday moisturizer whenever you’re running low or looking for a new alternative.

Freshly harvested gel can be applied directly to the skin or stored overnight in the fridge so it’s ready for you in the morning!

Once you have your gel, just rub pieces of the gel over your skin in a thin layer. It may feel a bit slimy, but it shouldn’t be heavy. You can also apply to the lips for extra hydration. Allow the gel to dry, then apply your makeup as usual! Repeat twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening after washing your face, for the best results.

What is Mesotherapy?

Though many turn to mesotherapy for its flow-inducing properties on the face, it's also often used on the body or even on the scalp. "There are different types of mesotherapy that can be administered, each designed and tailored depending on what the concerns such as collagen loss, hair loss, cellulite, or even excess fat.

The Benefits of Mesotherapy:

·         Stimulates collagen production

·         Smooths wrinkles and fine lines

·         Improves the texture of skin

·         Improves symmetry of the face

·         Targets cellulite

·         Remove fat in areas like the stomach, thighs, buttocks, hips, legs, arms, and face.

·         Reduce cellulite.

·         Fade wrinkles and lines.

·         Tighten loose skin.

·         Recontour the body.

·         Lighten pigmented skin.

·         Treat alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss.

While mesotherapy is used for a range of issues, it's recently become especially popular when used on the face, to impart a youthful look. "The physical technique stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin," explains skin specialist . "Then, think of the fibroblasts as depleted of nutrients—hyaluronic acid, vitamin, minerals, essential amino acids, growth factors, stem cells, etc.— you can then tailor what nutrients you want to give the fibroblasts, according to the patient's needs and age."

Mesotherapy is also not a filler, so as she  explains, "it cannot replace volume loss, however, it will prolong the life of a filler and it will stimulate collagen and elastin where there is loss of volume and therefore improve plumpness on the face." It's also a solid choice for those looking to get a more symmetrical look. "Mesotherapy is brilliant for perpendicular lip lines, dry dehydrated lips and the barcode wrinkles patients get adjacent to the mouth and under the cheekbones," she says.

Potential Side Effects

Depending upon where on your body you have the procedure performed, you can expect possible bruising or swelling at the injection site and possibly some sensitivity.

Aftercare

As with treatments such as Botox or fillers, your provider may ask that you refrain from strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours post-treatment, and stay out of the sun for a few days. If you experience minor discomfort, an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol will help.

What to do if sudden earlobe tears?

Sudden earlobe tears usually happen when a child or pet grabs an earring and pulls on it. More rarely, torn earlobes occur when dangling earrings get caught in hair or clothing. Regardless of what causes your earlobe to tear, you’ll need to act quickly to treat your injury: The earlobes naturally receive very little blood flow (they have poorer circulation than other extremities, like the hands and feet), so they need to be repaired promptly to prevent permanent tissue damage.

Immediately after your injury, place gauze over the wound and apply gentle pressure to slow the bleeding. (If you don’t have gauze on hand, try using a clean washcloth to control bleeding.)

Don’t place ice directly on the wound; ice will restrict circulation to the area and potentially delay healing. The extreme cold can also worsen the pain you feel. Instead of grabbing ice cubes, use a cool compress to reduce inflammation. Then, as soon as you’ve covered your wound, head to the nearest emergency room to have the tear closed with sutures. Don’t leave it to nature to take care of it. 

 

Sometimes, a small portion of tissue gets torn from the ear during a traumatic injury. If this happens to you, dampen a piece of gauze or cloth and carefully wrap up the severed piece of tissue. Place the wrapped piece of earlobe on a bed of ice cubes, then drive to the nearest hospital immediately. Be aware, however, that severed pieces of earlobe cannot always be successfully reattached (because of the poor blood flow to the area). In most cases, severely torn earlobes require the attention of a skilled plastic surgeon, who can surgically reconstruct the shape of your earlobe. 

How to treat Tear and holes ?

Earlobe stretching is sometimes done intentionally (a practice called ear gauging), but it can also happen accidentally over time. Frequently wearing heavy, dangling earrings often causes earring holes to gradually enlarge, usually over the course of two to three decades. This happens due to the combined effects of gravity and collagen loss: The skin, cartilage, and connective tissues in your ears become weaker as collagen levels drop with age. As a result of this collagen loss, the earlobes can’t support the weight of heavy earrings anymore, and both the lobes and the holes in them elongate. If this stretching isn’t treated, the earlobes may split below the earring holes, making it impossible to wear earrings.

If your earlobes are severely stretched or split, you’ll need to seek medical care if you want to restore their form and function. Though stretched or split earlobes that result from earring use (not injury) aren’t considered an emergency, they still require the attention of an experienced plastic surgeon. Without surgical intervention, your stretched earlobes won’t be able to support earrings anymore, and they’ll retain a saggy look that ages your face. If you’ve gauged your ears in the past, your earlobes may look particularly wrinkled, distorted, and unsightly when you remove your plugs. Because earlobe repair surgery is quick, affordable, and generally painless, most people prefer to have their stretched earlobes fixed in our clinic, rather than having to live with them. 

How Do We Surgically Repair Torn, Stretched, or Sagging Earlobes?

Whether your earlobes have been damaged by sudden trauma, natural aging, or gauging, earlobe repair surgery can restore their original shape. This operation doesn’t require sedation (it can be performed with just local anesthetic), and it can usually be completed in under an hour, so you shouldn’t let fear of having surgery dissuade you from fixing your earlobes. This type of procedure is only minimally invasive, and our doctors will completely numb your earlobes to ensure your comfort during repair. You’ll also be able to go home right after your operation and resume light activities, before returning to work the following day. 

To perform earlobe repair surgery, our doctors make an incision in each earlobe, then they remove any damaged tissue that is present.Then, the patient’s incisions are closed with sutures, which are typically removed after one to two weeks. Removing damaged tissue makes elongated earlobes smaller and allows healthy earlobe tissue to heal together, which closes previously gaping or split earring holes. 

 

Recovering from earlobe surgery is typically very easy:

You’ll notice some redness and swelling for a few days, then your earlobes will return to normal. Still, it’s important to understand that while your earlobes may look better after a week, deeper tissue healing takes a long time. Caring for your ears correctly while they heal is absolutely essential if you want to prevent future stretching. 

·         After you have earlobe surgery, keep your ears protected from sun exposure when you go .

·         Though most people can wear earrings after having their earlobes repaired, you’ll need to wait at least two months before having your ears pierced again. Wearing earrings too early during recovery will damage your earlobes

·         To maintain the results of your earlobe repair procedure, we recommend do not wearing heavy or dangling earrings .

Can I Use Dermal Fillers to Repair My Earlobes?

In some cases, dermal filler injections can improve the appearance of stretched earlobes, though fillers can’t mend split earlobes on their own. Dermal fillers can be used in place of surgery (if your earlobes have not split), or they can be used to enhance the results of traditional earlobe repair, e.g., through scar revision. 

When dermal fillers are injected into scar tissue, they elevate indentations in the skin, thereby making scars less visible. They also encourage long-term tissue healing. If you had your earlobes sutured after a traumatic injury and don’t like the way your scars look, dermal fillers may be able to help.

Dermal filler injections are safe and painless, but they don’t last forever. If you want to use fillers to repair your earlobes, you’ll need to have your injections repeated once or twice per year. Earlobe repair surgery, on the other hand, produces results that last ten years or longer (with appropriate care).

 What is Cyst?

A cyst is an abnormal, sac-like structure that can be found anywhere in the body. Cysts usually contain a gaseous, liquid, or semisolid substance and have an outer wall, known as the capsule. Cysts may be small and visible only under a microscope, or they may grow to a very large size and displace normal body structures.

What are the different types of cysts?

Cysts occur commonly in numerous tissues and organs and are often named according to their particular anatomic location (for example ovarian cysts, bladder cysts, breast cysts, liver cysts, kidney cysts, pancreatic cysts, vaginal cysts, skin cysts, thyroid cysts). Certain types of cysts also have special designations and nomenclature. Examples of these include:

·         Ganglion cyst: a cyst around a tendon, most commonly occurring at the wrist

·         Baker's cyst: a cyst containing joint fluid that is located in popliteal space behind the knee

·         Bartholin's cyst: cystic enlargement of small glands near the vaginal opening

·         Nabothian cyst: a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the uterine cervix

·         Pilonidal cysts: cysts that arise in the soft tissue at the base of the tailbone (coccyx) of the lower back, just above the natal cleft (the cleavage between the buttocks)

·         Dermoid cyst: a type of benign tumor of the ovary that contains multiple cystic spaces and various tissue types

Medical procedures for cyst removal

It can be difficult to identify a cyst versus a boil, skin abscess, or something else that may need treatment. That’s why it’s important to see a doctor for diagnosis.

It’s possible your cyst may not have to be removed. Your doctor may recommend other treatment depending on the type and location of the cyst.

When a cyst must be removed, here are some methods your doctor may use:

Drainage

Under local anesthesia, a doctor will make a small incision through which the cyst can be drained. Your doctor may pack some gauze into the wound, which can be removed after a day or two. To treat or prevent infection, you may need to take antibiotics. Your wound should heal within a week or two.

Drainage is not recommended for epidermoid or pilar cysts on the skin. The procedure leaves these cysts in the skin, which will eventually cause them to recur.

Drainage can also cause scarring on the surface of the skin and under the skin. This can make cysts more difficult to remove in the future.

Fine-needle aspiration

For this procedure, a doctor will insert a thin needle into the cyst to drain the fluid. This should make the lump less noticeable.

This method may be used for breast cysts, which can sometimes recur. Fine-needle aspiration is also used for biopsy procedures to determine if a breast lump contains cancer cells.

Surgery

Surgery is an option for some types of cysts, such as ganglion, Baker’s, and dermoid cysts. Local anesthetic can be used to numb the area. After making a small cut, the doctor will pull out the cyst.

Surgical removal of the cyst will result in a scar. The size of the scar depends on several factors, including the size of the cyst.

Ganglion cysts and Baker’s cysts sometimes recur after surgery.

Laparoscopy

Certain cysts, such as those that develop in the ovaries, can be removed laparoscopically. In this procedure, a surgeon uses a scalpel to make a few small incisions. Then they insert a thin camera called a laparoscope into one of the incisions to help them view and remove the cyst.

This procedure results in only a few small scars because of the small size of the incisions.

How to achieve a glowing complexion very quick?

Collagen is your skins primary support system and is what keeps your skin firm, taut and lifted. Without it, your skin would literally be unable to hold itself up and would be lacking in structure.

Replenishing your supply of collagen internally every day through supplementation is one guaranteed way to help give your skin a much-needed boost from within and prevent ageing. It’s something you can do at home in less than a minute without knives and needles and will assist your skin to look firmer, tighter and less droopy with visible results in just a few weeks.

Type I collagen makes up over 70% of our skin and is the most abundant collagen in the body. Its positive benefits range from reversing the aging process and decreasing the prominence of wrinkles and cellulite, to enhancing skin hydration and firmness. 

Marine collagen is the most researched form of collagen in relation to skin ageing. It’s rich in amino acids glycine and proline which are the primary components of collagen and fuel the production of new collagen throughout the body. Glycine is foundational to DNA and RNA strand creation, while proline is foundational to the human body’s ability to naturally produce its own collagen. Glycine has many significant functions for the body, including blocking endotoxin and transporting nutrients for cells to utilise as energy. While prolines main function is to ensure collagen synthesis, also acting as an antioxidant by protecting cells from free radical damage.

BENEFITS OF MARINE COLLAGEN

MAINTAINING YOUTHFUL SKIN

Collagen in our skin begins to break down as early as our mid-twenties. Replenishing collagen is vital to maintaining youthful skin. As we age, we lose more of our own collagen and our ability to replace collagen is impaired. The most significant decrease in collagen occurs during and after menopause. Other lifestyle factors that cause collagen levels to become depleted include smoking, sun exposure, unhealthy diet, stress and lack of sleep.

DECREASE CELLULITE

Marine collagen has been shown to decrease wrinkles and the appearance of cellulite. It may also help improve skin firmness, hydration, smoothness, suppleness and elasticity.

SUPPORT GUT HEALTH

Collagen is an important contributor in the maintenance of the gut lining and can assist with nutrient absorption, elimination, general digestive health and immune function.

SUPPORT HEALTHY HAIR & NAILS

Amino acids found in collagen specifically proline and glycine, support hair and nail growth. Several in vitro studies have shown that collagen enhances the cells responsible for creating connective tissue and replenishing cells in the dermis and in turn encourages hair growth and nail strength. 

SCAR REDUCTION

As Type I collagen is a major component in the dermal matrix of skin, it also determines the rate of wound healing. Marine collagen may alleviate scars and increase the speed of wound healing due to its ability to promote protein synthesis and cell proliferation supporting skin tissue strength by regenerating the extracellular matrix. From scratches, burns to scars, marine collagen is your new best friend.

STABILISATION OF BLOOD SUGAR

Glycine has been studied for its numerous benefits including stabilisation of blood sugar. Researchers have recently found evidence that low levels of glycine in the body may lead to insulin resistance and diabetes. Supplementing with marine collagen increases glycine in the body.

REDUCE INFLAMMATION AND FIGHT BACTERIA

Hydrolysed marine collagen consists of bioactive peptides that have antioxidant properties. These properties can help in the reduction of reactive oxygen species - unstable molecules containing oxygen that cause the aging of tissues. Increasing antioxidants may assist with boosting immunity and reducing inflammatory responses. The bioactive peptide collagencin found in marine collagen may help inhibit the growth of bacteria.

Facial Skin Redness & Treatment

When it comes to your complexion, seeing red is not always a good thing—especially if you have sensitive skin that reacts from the slightest triggers. While facial redness is one of the most common skin issues to deal with. So here are some facts about redness to keep in mind the next time your skin is looking flushed.

1-Redness comes in different forms:  Redness occurs when blood rushes to the surface of your skin and is commonly associated with sensitive or highly reactive skin. But flushing can also be caused by a number of reasons—from sunburn and extreme weather to allergies and rosacea,

Rosacea and eczema are both genetic conditions, which can be treated with topical prescription medications

2. Your skin care products and routine may also be to blame: Not all skin care products are created equal, and some ingredients in your beauty products may be doing your skin more harm than good. Redness can be caused by skin irritation or an allergic reaction from a certain ingredient in a product. Your daily regimen may also be the reason your skin is turning red or feeling extra sensitive. While cleansing and peels are a must for glowing skin, things can easily take a turn when it’s overdone or when using the wrong formula or ingredients for your skin type.

3- Diet and lifestyle can also be a reason: Long nights, poor diet and stress don’t only take a toll on your overall health, they’re also bad news for your skin. “Avoid spicy foods, alcohol, hot tea or coffee, citrus and tomatoes,” says by dermetologist, as these are known to trigger and worsen redness. Temperature changes can also affect your skin, so skip the sauna and exercising outdoors if you’re trying to lessen the flushing.

4- Redness can look different on different shades of skin: In fairer skin types, it may be more predominant, and the skin might look more reddish pink. In darker skin types, redness or inflammation may sometimes present with more purplish or hyperpigmented tones,” she says. Eczema, for example, is often described as dry and itchy red patches on lighter skin. On skin of color, it can appear ashen, brown or grayish, instead. When identifying what causes redness on skin of color, Dr. Manju Keshri  advises looking out for other symptoms like swelling, warmth, itching and time frame for the condition.

Over-the-counter products can help calm redness: Although we’d love to get our hands on a product that fixes all our redness concerns, different skin types don’t always respond to treatment the same way. That said, there are certain ingredients and formulas to look for to lessen flushing and discoloration. “

Helpful to decrease redness:

·         Niacinamide,

·         Aloe vera,

·         green tea,

·         Azelaic acid and

·         Zrnica

It’s best to steer clear of products that contain alcohol, fragrance and other abrasive ingredients. You’d also want to give your skin a break from using retinol products if it causes dryness, flushing and itching.

Know when it’s time to talk to your doctor.

If your skin remains flushed even after trying topical treatments and making changes in your daily activities and skin care routine, then it’s time to seek the advice of your doctor, says Dr Manju Keshri (Dermatologist) . Particularly, if the skin discoloration also comes with other symptoms. “It’s best to seek help and further guidance from a medical professional when your dermatologic condition is significantly impacting your quality of life, or if you just need or want more information.
