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.

How’s skin redness treated?

Treatments for skin redness depend on what’s causing it. Examples can include avoiding the irritant or allergen that caused your skin redness in the first place.

Other treatments for skin redness include:

·         Cleansing the affected area with soap and water

·         Taking medications like antihistamines to minimize irritation

·         Applying topical skin care treatments like calamine lotion to reduce skin redness

Keeping the affected area clean and dry can usually help reduce skin redness. If an infection is the cause of your skin redness, your healthcare provider may prescribe antibiotics to reduce the infection’s symptoms.

Why vitamins are essential for skin nourishment?

 Vitamins are the best multi-tasking must-haves for all skin types. For a powerful hit of age-defying antioxidants that have the capacity to nurture and correct your skin, a daily serving of potent and stable vitamins can deliver your healthiest skin yet. 

Your skin requires a combination of vitamins to strengthen and provide antioxidant protection, boost collagen and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. Plenty of research has proven the effectiveness of topically applied vitamins and antioxidants in combating a plethora of skin conditions. These range from aged and sun-damaged skin to oily and blemish-prone skin.

Vitamins Good for Skin Nutrition

Studies show that the vitamins C, E, A, K, and B complex all help improve skin health and appearance. Here's how.

Vitamin C: Among the most important new dermatologic discoveries is the power of vitamin C to counter the effects of sun exposure. It works by reducing the damage caused by free radicals, a harmful byproduct of sunlight, smoke, and pollution. Free radicals gobble up collagen and elastin, the fibers that support skin structure, causing wrinkles and other signs of aging.

Vitamin E: Research shows that, like vitamin C, this potent antioxidant helps reduce the harmful effects of the sun on the skin. According to studies published by the AAD, taking 400 units of vitamin E daily appeared to reduce the risk of sun damage to cells as well as reduce the production of cancer-causing cells. Some studies show that when vitamins E and A are taken together, people show a 70% reduction in basal cell carcinoma, a common form of skin cancer.

Vitamin E can also help reduce wrinkles and make your skin look and feel smoother. (Be aware, though, that some recent research warns that large doses of vitamin E can be harmful. Stay with 400 international units per day or less to be on the safe side.) Used in a cream, lotion, or serum form, vitamin E can soothe dry,

Vitamin B Complex : When it comes to skin, the single most important B vitamin is biotin, a nutrient that forms the basis of skin, nail, and hair cells. Without adequate amounts, you may end up with dermatitis (an itchy, scaly skin reaction) or sometimes even hair loss. Even a mild deficiency causes symptoms. Your body makes plenty of biotin, and the nutrient is also in many foods, including bananas, eggs, oatmeal, and rice.

Creams containing B vitamins can give skin an almost instant healthy glow while hydrating cells and increasing overall tone at the same time. Niacin, a specific B vitamin, helps skin retain moisture, so your complexion looks more plump and younger looking in as little as six days. It also has anti-inflammatory properties to soothe dry, irritated skin. In higher concentrations it can work as a lightening agent to even out blotchy skin tone.

Vitamin B: If your vitamin A levels are up to snuff from the foods you eat, adding more probably won't do much more for your skin. That said, if those levels drop even a little below normal, you're likely to see some skin-related symptoms, including a dry, flaky complexion. That's because vitamin A is necessary for the maintenance and repair of skin tissue. Without it, you'll notice the difference. Fruits and vegetables are loaded with vitamin A.

Topical vitamin A is the form that makes a real difference in your skin. Medical studies show a reduction in lines and wrinkles, good acne control, and some psoriasis relief, all from using creams containing this nutrient. The prescription treatment is called Ratin A, and it's used primarily as a treatment for acne. The less potent, over-the-counter formulations are sold as retinols and used as anti-aging treatments.
