Busting Those Myths About Laser Hair Removal

The holidays are a good time to spend time at the beach or lounging on the patio at night, on a tropical island destination and it's the perfect time to stay outdoors and enjoy the beautiful weather as opposed to countries that do go through harsh cold weather during the holidays. Since, the holiday season is the best time of the year to have fun and enjoy yourself, dressing up in your favorite shorts and cocktail dresses, women generally spend a great deal of time shaving, hoping that their days will not be ruined by those small, prickly hairs that won't seem to go away, explains a doctor at the Medical Clinics in Dubai.

However, for women who have had it with constant shaving, waxing or using hair-removal cream, there is another option, laser hair removal, a nonsurgical procedure that may be able to greatly reduce the appearance of hair on the skin's surface.

The laser hair removal procedure deactivates hair follicles on the skin, preventing hair from coming back. A low-energy laser is guided over that area of the body, where the hair needs to be removed, either in the legs, armpits or face,  ensuring all hair follicles have been properly treated with Laser Treatment in Dubai. There are many individuals, mostly women patients who want this procedure, according to the experts. However, before selecting this procedure, patients must first have a consultation with a board-certified surgeon, who will discuss the benefits, risks and factors that may affect the treatment.  

As with most cosmetic procedures, laser hair removal has its share of pros and cons, as well. There are a few misconceptions that surround laser hair removal surgery. An expert at the Clinics in Jumeirah explained that many patients are hesitant to select this procedure because of certain negative information they have heard.  

There are many interesting myths and misconceptions that people have about laser hair removal. Yet once these people opt for the treatment they regret having waited for so long as the treatment offers many long-lasting benefits and is a much easier treatment than one perceives.

One of the most popular topics that patients frequently ask about includes pain levels, time and effectiveness. The surgeon explains that generally, patients who undergo  Laser Hair Removal in Dubai, do not feel any pain when they undergo this treatment. Some patient's do experience​ discomfort and a few report that they have experienced a higher degree of pain.  This does, however, depend upon a variety of factors, including lifestyle habits, age and genetics.

Another common concern among patients seeking the treatment is the time it takes to complete the procedure. Depending on the area of the body the treatment is done as well as the skin's pigment and hair color, a patient may require frequent treatments to get rid of all their hair. Most patients see permanent results after about three to eight sessions and Reader's Digest reported that this can be due to the fact that most hair follicles have to fully grow before they can be removed, so whatever patches are inactive during the first session may start growing after treatment.

Does Facial Exercises Work For facial Rejuvenation

Being physically beautiful, plays an important role in present day society. However, despite all this, one must understand that physical beauty cannot last forever and changes with age, and often the first signs of aging are particularly noticeable in the face, says a professional at the International Medical Clinic in Dubai.

The aesthetic correction of facial aging has long been the specialty of plastic surgeons and Dermatologist in Dubai who perform procedures such as chemical peeling, Botox and dermal fillers, laser treatment, face lifts, brow lifts, and in recent times, eyelid surgery. 

The Facial Rejuvenation Clinic in Dubai explains that in recent years a less invasive and less expensive alternative to the medical approaches to facial rejuvenation has been promoted with facial exercises. There are a plethora of resources, books, DVD’s and websites with exercises that involve strength, movement or manipulation of the facial muscles. However, one must ask the question, if these exercises really do work? 

The effectiveness of facial exercises has always been a topic of debate as it does raise some conflicting views. As some claim that facial exercises are an effective way to reduce wrinkles and sagging skin, others point out that the overuse of facial muscles is often the cause of wrinkles and that facial exercises thus may have the opposite effect from what was intended. 

There is very little research being carried out in this area to prove the effectiveness of exercises for facial rejuvenation. However, researchers have performed a systematic review of the medical literature and have identified only a few studies that examined the effects of facial muscle exercises on facial rejuvenation. One of the articles, namely, “The Effectiveness of Facial Exercises for Facial Rejuvenation,” which appears in the January issue of the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, report a very convincing and positive outcome. Despite this, the quality of the available evidence appeared to be insufficient to determine whether facial exercises are effective for facial rejuvenation. The studies did not use a control group and in most studies, there was no objective assessment that took place. It was the authors and/or the patients themselves who concluded that there was an improvement, and it did not go beyond that. 

Therefore, before you come to any conclusions about the usefulness of facial exercises, it has to be properly researched and should provide facts and figures to support any claims. Studies should be conducted with larger groups of participants and studies that compare treated with untreated patients and use objective measurements. Studies are also needed that compare various types of exercises, and it should be  investigated  if it makes a difference, how long and how intense the exercises should be. 

The Skin Care Clinic in Dubai, explains that it is possible that facial exercises only work up to a certain age or when the signs of aging are still gentle on the appearance. But despite all this, does facial exercises for facial rejuvenation work? The only answer that the research allows is a 'maybe, but also maybe not, or maybe not always'.

Botox Treatment For Chronic Sweating

The FDA in 2004, approved the use of Botox in Dubai for a condition called Hyperhidrosis or severe underarm sweating. Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition caused by over stimulated sweat glands. People with this condition often produce four to five times more sweat than a normal  person. 

Experts at the Skin Care Clinic in Dubai have identified the following as triggers for Hyperhidrosis,

• Exercise
• Environmental conditions such as extreme cold and heat
• Food such as alcohol, coffee, tea, smoking, hot or spicy food
• Stress, anxiety and strong emotions 

If a notice that you have  excessive sweating of at least 6 months duration with at least two of the following characteristics, that you  are suffering from Hyperhydrosis, and this can be treated with Botox.

• Bilateral and relatively symmetrical sweating
• Makes it impossible to attend to daily activities
• At least one episode per week
• The symptoms occurred before the age of 25 years
• Family history
• Cessation of sweating during sleep 

Botox has been  proven to be an effective hyperhidrosis treatment.  A small dose of the Botox solution is  injected through a very fine needle into the underarm area  and Botox temporarily blocks the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When these glands don't get the chemical signals they need, the excessive underarm sweating stops. The treatment will take about 5 - 10 minutes, is absolutely painless and the treatment is reported to last 6 - 9 months. The effects of the treatment vary from person to person. Depending on how severe the Hyperhidrosis, multiple injections will be required. Once the patient has the treatment, within about 1 - 2 weeks they may see a significant reduction in underarm sweating.

Some of the pre-treatment instructions that a patient should follow include,

• Firstly, shave the area 24 hours prior to the procedure
• Before the procedure, avoid hot beverages or going to the gym
• Avoid using deodorants and other underarm products
• Patients should not consume alcohol before the procedure
• Any sort of pain management medication should not be taken

 What should a patient expect,

• An Iodine solution will be painted in the area
• Starch powder will then be sprinkled and will be allowed to settle for 10 minutes.
• A blue-black mark will identify the affected area of perspiration.
• The area will then be circled and marked.
• The Botox treatment is then injected next to each pen marking 

Some of the post treatment instruction for the procedure includes, 

• Avoiding the use of deodorant for 12 hours
• Avoid heavy exercise for 24 hours
• Once the Botox treatment is administered, the patient needs to gently clean and dry the underarm area using a mild soap.
• Patients may see results in as little as 7days, and the treatment can be totally effective in 14 days.
• Contact the Clinic if you experience sweating in the treated area after 14 days. 

The experts at the International Medical Clinic in Dubai explained that Botox is not a treatment that is traditionally used for treating wrinkles anymore, it has many other uses than being just for cosmetic purposes. The medical benefits of Botox are immense as well.

Botox The Treatment For Headaches

Most people wonder if  Botox in Dubai is a solution that can cure chronic migraine. The first thing a person thinks about when they hear the word Botox is that its simply an effective, successful and a 21st Century treatment for wrinkles and crows feet caused by aging skin. However, scientists and researchers consider Botox as a sub-type of botulinum toxin, the bacteria responsible for botulism.

Although this train of thought is correct and we are simply looking on the surface for when it comes to viable medicinal and cosmetic uses of Botox. In fact, recent reports suggest that Botox can be used to successfully treat headaches and migraine. 

The History of Botox

In the early years, most patient's who had Botox treatment reported that they noticed an improvement in headache symptoms. Following these reports, researchers carried out clinical trials on patients experiencing different types of headache. At the time, the research results were inconclusive and there was no discernible difference found between a placebo and the real thing. 

However, the report did show significant results in patient's who were suffering from chronic migraine, who did not report an improvement and further testing was needed. The further tests carried out reported very surprising results as those suffering from migraine and chronic headaches reported an improvement in their symptoms following Botox treatment. 

The experts at the Clinics in Jumeirah explains, how Botox works as a successful treatment for migraine and chronic headaches. It is not exactly known how Botox relieves migraine symptoms, but it is assumed that the relief Botox brings may have nothing to do with its muscle relaxing properties, but rather the effect it has on the central pain processing systems that are responsible for migraine or chronic headaches. Patients also report that Botox has also brought relief to those suffering from  lower back pain, cervical dystonia or neck pain, bladder pain and neuropathic pain. 

Therefore, for those who are suffering from migraine or chronic headaches, here are some reason that Botox can work,

• Botox can relax the muscles around the head and neck area and reduce blood pressure in the Brian.
• Botox can prevent the signals that are being sent by the nerves that produce migraine and chronic headache pain
• Botox will reduce the possibility of the nerves sending pain signals during a migraine. 

For those who are suffering from migraine and chronic headaches and want to try Botox, there are medical facilities that are licensed and use Botox specifically for the treatment of these conditions. The experts at the Medical Clinics in Dubai explain that Botox is only suitable for patients who experience chronic headaches or migraine, such as headaches that occur on 15 or more days every month. 

However, not all patients are comfortable with using Botox for chronic headaches and migraines, and for these patient there are other types of treatment available. However, these sorts of treatment may not be able to provide the relief that the patient needs, therefore, it's good to educate yourself on the treatment provided by Botox for headaches and migraines and hope its becomes a reality soon.

Surgical or Laser Scar Removal in Dubai

Have you ever wondered about the difference between the two scar removal in Dubai treatments. Whether it should be Laser Scar Removal or Surgical.  Laser scar treatment is a prevailing technique that is used to improve all types of scars.  This also can be accomplished by  other techniques such as dermabrasion as well. Those who have blemishes caused by wounds, an accident, acne or a medical condition, laser treatments or dermabrasion can help reduce the appearance of the scar and make it less prominent in areas of the body that are very noticeable and even if the scar has extended beyond where the initial injury occurred, the built up collagen that has caused this to happen can be removed with laser procedures.

Like all types of Laser Treatment in Dubai, scar removal is not a procedure for everyone to have. For those who already have skin related problems such as psoriasis, then laser scar removal is not a good option to be used to reduce scarring. More often, scar removal on sensitive skin can just make things look and feel worse for the patient, instead of giving them a solution or boost their confidence.  Dermatologist in Dubai advises that certain types of medications should not  be mixed with laser scar removal.

The treatment of laser scar removal is done by removing layers of skin. Exposing new, fresh, healthy and unblemished skin below and leave each treatment with the scar being less and less visible. The laser also activates collagen cells in the skin, the very things that help the skin heal and stay firm. Therefore, getting laser treatments for scar removal for the skin can make the skin look more youthful, and feel healthier and firmer.

The biggest risk with laser scar removal is a change in color around the area treated. Those who work outdoors or go out in the sun will make the color difference more obvious and prominent. As with most laser treatment, a patient needs to be careful and follow the post care instruction given by the doctor. Despite the aftercare that is followed, if there are infections of post laser scar removal, antibiotics can make the patient heal.

The most common type of scar removal that is done today is with lasers or dermabrasion. This is a simple, low risk procedure that takes less than two hours to finish, which will depend on the strength of the scar, and subsequent treatments may be necessary.

For very severe scar marks the doctor may recommend getting it surgically removed instead. There are techniques that can be used to  improve the appearance of facial scars by re-orienting the scars into what is called resting skin tension lines. A patient's wrinkles and facial muscles, then help the re-aligned scars to heal better. This type of scar removal takes a lot longer to heal and is usually only done in severe cases. This method is more of a traditional scare removal method as opposed to laser scar removal, which is still a relatively new technology. The best type of procedure that is best for wiping out the blemish will need to be discussed by the patient and the surgeon at the Skin Care Clinic in Dubai

Controlling Swelling Rhinoplasty

Every operation, no matter how small it is there is always swelling of the surrounding area or the surgical site, and Rhinoplasty is no exception. The swelling will vary from person to person and is greater if both the inside and outside of the nose have been operated on, or in patients who have undergone surgery to improve the breathing function of their nose. Here are some tips provided by the Dermatologist in Dubai to keep the swelling down after a rhinoplasty.

• Keep the head elevated, upright or lifted up as much as possible after the surgery is performed. A patient should sleep with their head elevated for at least two weeks after surgery. 

• While resting, use a cold compress over the nose and mid-facial areas. Cold compresses are only effective for the swelling during the first 48 hours after surgery. After that, there is no need to use a cold compress to relieve the discomfort. Make sure when you are doing this that the compress is not wet or moist. 

• Don't bend over or lift any heavy things for two weeks. Bending over can aggravate the swelling as well as raise blood pressure and increase the chance of hemorrhaging. 

• Try as much as possible to avoid hitting or bumping the nose into things, especially during sleeping. 

• Avoid excess sun exposure on the face for at least four months as this will reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation. Normal exposure is ok, but don't overdo it, you can use a sunscreen with SPF 30. During the summer, sunscreen should be applied to the nose every two hours to avoid burning. 

• Patients who use hair dryers to dry their hair should only use a handheld blow dryer. Avoid sitting at an overhead dryer that is used at the hair salon for at least two weeks. 

• Avoid getting the nasal dressings wet. If the tape gets wet while having a shower simply pat it dry. If the patient notices the bandage coming off, the doctor should be notified. 

• Try to use the nose and touching the surrounding area as less as possible for at least the first week of surgery. It will not relieve the sensation of blockage a person feels, but it will aggravate this sensation, because suction created on the inside will cause more swelling says an expert in Cosmetic Dermatology in Dubai. Avoid blowing the nose for at least two weeks as this could lead to bleeding. 

• Avoid rubbing the nose or nostril with a tissue or handkerchief. It will aggravate the swelling, cause infection, bleeding or dislodge the cartilage inside the nose. 

• If the doctor has used dissolvable stitches at the base of the nose, clean them as instructed. Regularly cleaning the stitches will help keep the stitches and crust soft and more comfortable.

Usually, for patients who have undergone this type of Dermatology treatment in Dubai, doctors will advise them to use a saline nasal spray, to help clear the nostrils and any discomfort with breathing or nasal related.

Laser Hair Removal Myths in Dubai

The advantages and disadvantages of Laser Hair Removal in Dubai  are in abundance on the television, advertisements and the internet, so it can be a real challenge to make sense of myth and fact. Here is a look at what laser hair removal is and isn’t so that you choose the best option and have a safe treatment.

Myth: Laser Treatment is not safe

Laser Treatment in Dubai is very safe as long as it has been approved by the local Health Ministry and the FDA. Patients should ideally ask their doctors what sort of laser that is being used as some clinics may use cheap and low quality lasers that are not approved, resulting in disastrous effects.  Therefore, as long as the clinic is using lasers that has been determined safe, there is nothing to worry about.

Myth: Laser hair removal can cause a lot of hair growth

Dermatologist in Dubai says that there is no way a laser can create more hair growth. Human bodies are changing all the time, therefore with age, there could be people who lose hair in some places, while others may start growing hair in new places in their body. Laser hair removal can destroy hair follicles, but cannot prevent new ones from developing.

Myth: Despite the type of hair and color, laser treatment works for you and just about everyone.

Meet with a good Dermatologist to discuss the expected results. The end result of the treatment can vary according to the individuals hair color and skin type. While red hair can be difficult to remove, white and gray hair cannot be removed with laser treatment. Hairs that lack pigment cannot be removed as its impossible for the lasers to identify the hair follicles and destroy them.

Myth: Laser hair removal exposes a person to radiation

Experts in Cosmetic Dermatology in Dubai say that laser hair removal does not emit any radiation. While there could be radiation in between the light barriers of the laser, it does not exit the barriers and is not harmful to the recipient of laser hair removal in any way.

Myth: Permanent hair removal can be done in one session

The expert's at the Clinic will tell you that one session is not enough to get rid of hair growth. The reason for multiple treatment is because the hair grows in different cycles and growth at different times, so all hairs cannot be treated and targeted with one single treatment session. Receiving multiple treatment sessions are the only way to effectively destroy all hair follicles and this can be don't over a period of time.

Prior to deciding on having laser hair removal meet with a reputed expert for an initial consultation to have all your questions and concerns addressed. This is the best time to check about the type of lasers that are used by the clinic and if they are approved, the overall cost, the success rate of the treatment and the possible side effects that you may have as a result.

Dental Implants Dubai

There are many reasons that a person opt for dental implants in Dubai, such as tooth loss due to cavities, poor oral hygiene resulting in gum and periodontal disease, bite problems, infection, fractured dental roots and accidents that affect the teeth or its structure.

Extrinsic stains are stains that develop on the outer surface of the teeth due to exposure to dark beverage such as coffee,  tobacco and certain types of food. To prevent extrinsic stains from discoloring teeth,  brushing and periodic dental cleaning is important. However, if the stains do penetrate the dentin due to negligence it can be impossible to treat, even with professional teeth whitening products or the latest dental equipment. 

Intrinsic stains form on the interior of teeth and is a direct result of too much exposure to fluoride, minerals, trauma and aging. These types of stains are more complicated to deal with and are also very common. Some of the latest dental technology that is available at the International Medical Clinic Dubai's dental unit can whiten even the most stubborn intrinsic stains. A patient will require multiple teeth whitening treatments to achieve optimum results.

Depending on the type of tooth staining  a patient has, there are several treatment options available. The dentist in Dubai will discuss the best option with the patient, which is usually an in-office whitening treatment as opposed to the professional teeth whitening products that can be used at the convince of your home. In -office teeth whitening treatment is more effective as it can be closely monitored by the dentist.

Professional teeth whitening can be fast and effective, however a consultation with your dentist is important, as prior to the whitening treatment all other dental problems and issue need to be attended to. For instance, if the dentist spots a cavity at the initial consultations, he will first treat the cavity before moving on to teeth whitening.

Teeth whitening is one great option to lift your spirits and make you look youthful and have a bright white smile.
