Treatments to Shrink Enlarged Pores

Tightening your pores can solve a lot of skin problems. By Azra Shuib | June 1 2020 When it comes to facial pores, being realistic with your expectations is important. The famous glass skin trend that features smooth skin with no visible pores may just be achievable through good lighting and great facial illuminators that give the sheen finish. Not trying to stop your skincare goals, but it's vital to understand your own skin. You cannot eliminate pores, but you can shrink them. The size of your pores is largely determined by your genetics, and as you get older, other factors can cause the changes to the size. Among the causes of enlarged pores are dead skin cells buildup and excess oil production. Besides that, collagen and elastin that diminish as you age can make your pores loose and sag with the loss of elasticity over the years. So how can you shrink pores? Products such as AHA and BHA can be effective if your problems are not severe. Sunscreen application is of course a must, as UV rays can cause a lot of skin issues to appear. If you have a serious case of enlarged pores, then chemical peels, fillers and lasers can greatly help. Chemical Peels Chemical Peel is a skin-resurfacing treatment that activates skin cell renewal by applying chemical solutions to the areas being treated. The procedure will cause the skin cells to peel off, which helps to reveal new skin from underneath that is smoother and more youthful with smaller pores. This treatment is suitable for issues like wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, melasma and other skin problems that cause uneven skin tone and texture. Dermal Fillers Dermal fillers can help with sagging skin to give a plumper and rejuvenated texture. Unlike Botox or Dysport that freeze muscles to reduce wrinkles, fillers smooth out skin by restoring volume. Usually, hyaluronic acid will be injected into the skin to restore the loss of volume and soften the creases. These effects can help to minimize the appearance of pores. It requires a short amount of time to be done, is effective, safe and may last up to 1 to 2 years, depending on the individual. Fractional Laser It is a new technology developed to target deeper layers of the skin with a less invasive method. It helps to eliminate old skin cells and stimulate collagen remodelling – activating new collagens to form underneath the skin while keeping the healthy tissues unaffected. When collagen is increased, skin elasticity will also improve and this helps to tighten the skin, minimizing the appearance of pores. Generally, it's targeted at smoothing out skin texture, acne scars, rejuvenating the skin and shrinking pores. Q-Ray Laser Q-Ray Laser Treatment offers a powerful penetration deep into the dermis layer by utilizing CO2 Fractional System with 10600 nm wavelength. This treatment is often used to rejuvenate and tighten the skin, reduces any appearance of facial lines and removes facial imperfections like scars and age spots. As scars diminish, the appearance of pores can be improved. In the long term care, it's paramount to keep your pores clean by cleansing twice daily, especially if you wear makeup. Exfoliation can also help in reducing excess dead skin cells buildup, but opt for chemical ones rather than the physical exfoliators to avoid damaging the skin even further. Another tip is to target at reducing and clearing your acne, as acne scars can be a factor in enlarged pores. Getting regular treatments as recommended by your doctor can greatly improve the condition of enlarged pores. It's important to get the most reliable clinic and a doctor you trust.

What Is Laser Toning and How Can It Help? (Tokyo, Japan)

Time to bid farewell to those dark spots with Laser Toning. By Kath Wong | January 21 2020 Laser Toning, or often known as laser treatment is one of the most effective cosmetic treatments used for removing dark stains especially in Asian skin type, as well as treating pigmented areas such as blemishes and black spots. The treatment utilizes laser beams to penetrate specific layers inside of the skin to break pigments apart. Laser toning can effectively treat melasma, sun spots, acne scars, and other conditions that affect the skin’s pigmentation. What is Skin Pigmentation? Pigmentation is another word for skin colouring. Human skin is made up of cells that produce a pigment called melanin and the colouring of the skin depends on the production of melanin. If our skin is producing more melanin, we would look darker, and vice versa. Long hours of exposure to sunlight can damage the melanin-producing cells, in which skin might start to produce a lot of melanin, and thus will make the skin look darker. The result of it is called hyperpigmentation. On the other hand, when the melanin production gets altered and it starts to create less melanin, discolouration of the skin takes place and is known as hypopigmentation. Laser toning can be performed to fix the problem. How does laser toning work? Laser toning works by heating the targeted tissue without any permanent damage. The beams trigger the body to create more collagen and thus the body’s immune system process the excess pigmentation as well as the leftover particles to clear the scar or the dark spots after the treatment. Some dermatologists do suggest people avoid sun exposure before laser toning treatment and wearing sunscreen after getting the treatment is a must. A topical analgesic or local anaesthetic would be applied to reduce pain or discomfort during the procedure, but most patients don’t encounter any notable pain. Benefits of Laser Toning ・No downtime ・Almost-zero discomfort ・Fast procedure ・Suitable for all skin types ・Safe procedure without tissue injury ・Compatible with some other cosmetic treatments ・Ongoing improvement over several months after treatment Treatment may not be suitable if you are: ・Pregnant ・Prone to seizures triggered by light ・Have experienced abnormal wound healing or keloid scarring

So if you have thin eyebrows, you might be struggling to look for ways to fill in your brows. Factors leading to thin eyebrows aren’t always genetics, other reasons include over-plucking, lack of proper nutrition, medical conditions or treatments that lead to hair loss, spot baldness and side effects of chemotherapy, among others. There is still hope to restore your eyebrows and ultimately enhance your facial appearance. Eyebrow transplant is a brilliant solution. What is Eyebrow Transplant? Eyebrow transplant is the invasive method to restore eyebrow hair growth. In this technique, the healthy hair follicles are extracted from the back of the head or any other donor areas to place follicles on the brow area. The procedure, usually performed under a mild oral sedative, would look something like this: 1. Your eyebrows will be evaluated. 2. Hair follicles will be extracted using the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method. 3. Ultrafine hairs will be placed into tiny incisions made in the eyebrow area. This technique is painless, causes no scarring and gives a permanent solution. Generally, the more serious your thinness or baldness is, the more hair follicles will be placed. It is normal for your eyebrow hair to fall at about 3 to 5 weeks post-transplant. Eyebrow hair will begin growing in 2 months time and will continue growing up to 10 months. Advantages of Eyebrow Transplant ・ Improves facial appearance ・ Restores eyebrow hair growth ・ Enhances eyebrow shape and feel ・ Painless ・ Short and painless recovery period Like any other medical or beauty procedures, finding a skilful doctor is a must.

Explore What Stem Cell Therapy Can Do

What Is Stem Cell Therapy? By Kath Wong | January 16 2020 Stem cell therapy is a treatment that involves using stem cells to cure or aid in the severity of a disease or disorder. These days, it seems like the treatment has become one of the most effective ways to treat many different kinds of diseases. There are two main ways stem cells can be used: ・As a transplant: the desired stem cells harvested from the patient or a donor will be refined/modified and injected or grafted into the patient. ・As a target for a drug: activation of a desired response from the stem cells entered. One of the most common stem cell therapies available today is bone marrow transplant. The treatment helps in blood-related conditions such as leukemia or lymphoma, and is also showing promise in the treatment of certain forms of autoimmune disease; other conditions that undergo stem cell therapy for cure include bone, skin and eye illnesses or injuries. How Does It Work? Stem cells are the body’s raw material, they are usually obtained from fat tissues of the person. This means that liposuction is required prior to the treatment in order to obtain the fat tissues and extract the essential stem cells for later use. In proper words, the cells that can function as stem cells are known as autologous cells. The procedure involves re-administration of the cells extracted from the patient’s body back into the body through intravenous route. In addition to fat cells, in some cases the cells from unrelated donors are used, for instance, bone marrow stem cells and placental stem cells. Stem cell therapy takes time to be effective.

What Is Chelation Therapy?

Understand more about it - Facts, Procedure, and Side Effects. By Azra Shuib | January 15 2020 Have you ever witnessed anyone collapsed due to heavy metal poisoning? Well, don't be surprised if we say that that's possible. Heavy metal poisoning can happen to those who are: ・Always exposed to areas with high level of air and water pollution, eg: those who work in a factory ・Exposed to old lead paint, eg: those who fix homes ・Eating fish or seafood caught in area with high level of mercury ・Consuming any herbal medicines that contain heavy metals Chelation therapy is an effective and FDA-approved treatment for people with heavy metal poisoning as it detoxifies the toxic substances from your body. Our bodies contain a low level of heavy metals. However, some of us may become more exposed to heavy metals such as lead, mercury and arsenic to a higher degree. This causes frequent nausea, headaches and vomiting. A high level of heavy metals in the body can also lead to heavy metal poisoning, deteriorating health and even early death. Conditions that Can Benefit from Chelation Therapy Chelation therapy has been known to treat lead, mercury and arsenic poisoning. In recent years, it has been claimed to be able to treat heart disease, autism, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, among others. However, please be reminded that the FDA has only approved 11 chelating agents, including EDTA and DMSA, to treat heavy metal toxicities. Currently, chelation therapy is not approved by the FDA to treat other diseases, despite scientific research that supports its use in a variety of diseases. If you have done research on chelation therapy before and wish to get the treatment, it’s best to first consult with your doctor regarding your concerns so that you’ll make an informed decision. How Does It Work? This treatment is based on the process of chelation, which involves intravenous administration of a potent antioxidant called ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). Once EDTA gains entry into the bloodstream, it binds with heavy metals like lead, cadmium and iron that can cause free radical damage to the arteries. By adhering to these metals and transporting them out of the body through the urine, EDTA decreases the body’s toxic metal load and delays the side effects such as atherosclerosis. EDTA also clears out too much calcium from artery walls. Since calcification of arteries is a significant factor in atherosclerosis, this is also an added approach in which chelation restores the function of arteries and promotes blood flow. Furthermore, chelation has blood-thinning properties and prevents the development of potentially lethal blood clots that can lead to a heart attack or stroke. How will the procedure be like? During the course of the therapy, which takes 1 to 3 hours, you will relax on a recliner while EDTA is administered slowly through an IV. An entire course of chelation therapy involves as much as 30 treatments, generally done 1 to 3 times per week. Side effects Chelation therapy should only be done by experts with extensive experience in this treatment, as to avoid or minimize the following risks: ・Low blood pressure ・Anemia ・Damage to the eyes ・Cardiac arrhythmia ・Seizures ・Poor cognition ・Vitamin and mineral deficiencies ・Permanent kidney and liver damage Therefore, chelation therapy is only recommended as a treatment in metal poisoning where the benefits outweigh the risks.

Debeso Treatment - Reshaping of Belly Button

All about the belly button. By Kath Wong | January 11 2020 Belly button reshaping, also known as debeso treatment, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that modifies the unwanted size and shape of your belly button to the desired one. The procedure is also known as belly button rejuvenation. Debeso treatment has become a trend and the popularity still continues to grow. The treatment, in fact, is popular for both women and men who are not happy with their belly button overall appearance such as shape, size, as well as the position. Why Debeso Treatment? The belly button, or umbilicus, is the scar remained by the umbilical cord that was removed during birth. Its shape is determined by how the skin is attached to the underlying muscle and how the doctors handle the cutting. Usually, the scar comes in the form of a hole once the cord is cut, making the belly button an “innie”. For some cases where the belly button sticks out, it is called an “outie”. Moreover, the height of the belly button varies among the people as well; some have high and others have low, which sometimes it makes the body and torso look disproportionate. Here’s the solution to getting the desired belly button: Debeso treatment (Belly button surgery). Debeso treatment (Belly button surgery) can be performed on its own or an additional treatment to tummy tuck. Also, debeso treatment can be combined with liposuction to get the body contoured shapely as well. What to expect? The treatment is mostly performed on an outpatient basis with local anesthesia applied. Debeso treatment does not have a fixed duration as the time taken to would vary depending on the change requested. Unless hernia has to be repaired as part of the procedure, normally the overall treatment takes less than an hour to complete. There are a variety of techniques available to perform the treatment, which depends on the surgeons’ preferences as well as the type of change required. The typical procedure is to change an “outie” into an “innie”. Surgeons usually use internal sutures on the underside of the belly button to shape the desired contours. If the overall reduction of belly button is requested, the existing belly button will be removed, reshaped and sewn back on to get the desired size and proportion. In the case where scar tissue needs to be removed, the skin will be re-sutured after the removal for a better appearance. On the other hand, if repositioning is requested, the usual procedure is to remove a strip of skin from the inside at the abdomen part to allow the belly button to be repositioned. Possible risks and complications Some possible complications that may occur after belly button reshaping include: ・Pain – Mild pain may be felt and can be handled by painkillers. ・Bruising and swelling – These will be very light and subside within a few days. ・An irregular or a lopsided appearance – If your belly button appears irregular or lopsided, you may need further corrective surgery. Hence, looking for an experienced doctor is necessary. ・Scars – Excessive scar formation may occur even though the surgeons have undergone a safe cutting procedure; a corrective procedure afterwards can be done.

Tips for Getting Beauty Treatments Abroad

Avoid disastrous events, make your treatment results your best souvenirs. By Azra Shuib | January 9 2020 There are a lot of benefits in getting your health and beauty treatments abroad. They can be cheaper, more effective and safer with more experienced doctors. Plus point, it adds to your travel experiences too. If you're going to fly soon and hoping to come back looking better than ever, read on for some handy advice. 1. Do your research Whether you’re just getting a regular facial during your journey, or you're in face travelling to take advantage of cheaper treatment prices, be sure to do some research beforehand. What are your objectives? Do you want to revitalize a tired appearance? Are you longing for a great traditional massage? Or do you need beauty injections with long-lasting results? Whatever your goals are, do your research on the suitable treatments. You also need to read up about any side effects and contraindications to ensure that the therapy itself won’t get in the way of your travels. And it’s also useful to check the recovery time needed for your choice of treatment. If you’re going to a destination for a long period of time, then a long downtime with repeated sessions might not be a problem. But if you want it quick, check out some treatments that can give immediate results with no downtime. These effective procedures can include fillers, aqua peel or a quick and effective skin-lifting procedure called MINT lift. 2. Confirm the price before you go Some popular travel destinations have their own distinct beauty and health treatments, like Thai massage or South Korean beauty facials. Since these famous treatments are not a common splurge in other countries, it is a good thing to take advantage whenever you can. To ensure you won’t be at the losing end, always confirm the price in advance, or better yet, before you even board your flight. Some clinics might promote a very cheap price when they actually have hidden charges, and you will end up being charged double. If you are not sure, confirm with the clinic or a third party that can mediate between customers and clinics with transparent and no marked-up prices. 3. Learn some basic language or get an interpreter to deliver the right communication A very famous tip for travelers is to learn some basic language to get along with the locals. The same thing applies to getting beauty treatments as well. Feeling comfortable with your doctor or therapist is one of the factors that can make or break your beauty session. Bonding over your effort to start a conversation in their language is a good idea to release some tense and make you more relaxed. And if possible, it's nice to have interpreters with you especially when you're getting a more serious treatment like hair transplant. In fact, this can ensure a safe and effective treatment too. 4. Find the place So you have decided and booked for treatment. What now? You just have to find the place, right? Well, easier said than done. When you are at a new place, wandering around town hoping you could bump into the selected establishment can be overwhelming. Plan ahead by asking your agent, the hotel staff or the locals so you'll know your routes in advance, and get the best (and cheapest) transport to get there. If you like to plan ahead, Trambellir also provides a 'Clinic Information' section, where you can read through the location of the clinic as well as its landmarks. 5. Chill and relax Last but not least, the most important tip in getting beauty treatments abroad is to just enjoy every moment of it. Beauty sessions are not something you get to splurge on everyday, and getting it done overseas should feel even more special. When you have done your preparations, all should go smoothly and end well. If you're interested in getting your next beauty treatments in other countries (or even your own!), you can be confident in booking with Trambellir.

Questions Answered: Tummy Tuck vs Liposuction

What are the differences between them? By Kath Wong | January 8 2020 If you are wondering whether to go for either a liposuction or a tummy tuck, this is where you can find the solution that suits you the best. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and liposuction may serve the same function as changing the appearance of your midsection, but they are two different surgical procedures. Tummy tuck and liposuction have the same claim: to flatten your stomach, to make your stomach tighter and smaller. However, in terms of the actual procedure, recovery time and complications, they have significant differences from each other. One important thing to keep in mind is that both treatments are not recommended to treat obesity. The main differences In short, a tummy tuck involves reshaping and repairing torn muscles below the abdomen area, while liposuction removes fat deposits in certain areas of the body which are not limited to just the midsection, such as hips, thighs, buttocks, stomach area, etc. The procedure for liposuction mainly aims to remove fat deposits, reduce bulges and improve contour. Whereas for a tummy tuck, the main focus does not just stop on removing excess fat from the abdomen, but also to remove excess skin. The reason why people go for a tummy tuck is mostly because of the excess tissue and skin that do not recover after childbirth. A tummy tuck can be used to restore the flat and contoured midsection appearance; the procedure may involve bringing the sit-up muscles back together in the case where they have been stretched or separated during the pregnancy. The Procedures Tummy tuck is operated with general anesthesia. An incision will be made at the bottom of your skin that covers your abdominal wall. The exposed muscle will be sewed together to pull the skin tighter over your abdomen and the excess skin will be trimmed off and the final step is closing the incisions with sutures. The entire surgery takes 2 to 3 hours and it is permanent in just one procedure. For liposuction, local anesthesia will be applied to the targeted area for treatment. Once the area is numb, a small incision will be made for a thin tube (cannula) to be inserted underneath your skin to loosen the fat cells. The procedure follows the suction of fats out of the body. This treatment may take several sessions to achieve the desired results. The Recovery Period Tummy tuck takes longer to recover than liposuction. Within the next 48 hours after liposuction, you will be able to return to your normal daily activities except for heavy weight lifting and extensive cardio. A tummy tuck takes around 6 weeks for the initial recovery and follow-ups must be done for your doctor to check on the healing process. With the piece of information above, it is easy to tell that tummy tuck holds slightly more complications after than liposuction as it is considered to be more of surgery than liposuction. Wound complications and infections were among the most common reasons for readmission of the tummy tuck patients. Liposuction, on the other hand, would encounter complications depending on how big the treatment area is. The common minor complications for liposuction include numbness, contour irregularities and fluid accumulation. In conclusion, whether to go for a tummy tuck or liposuction, truly depends on your body conditions and the determination to get whichever area treated.

Skin Care Routine for Acne Prone Skin

Sometimes, simple steps are all that you need. By Azra Shuib | January 6 2020 Skincare routine is important, especially when you are prone to breakouts. A good and gentle regimen can help to remove excess oil, clear your pores from dirt and help to improve the conditions of existing blemishes. What are the measures should you take to improve your skin texture? Here are some handy tips: 1. Gentle cleansers Using harsh cleansers frequently can lead to dryness of the skin, which eventually increases your oil production. Keep everything gentle and oil-free to avoid suffocating your skin with harsh ingredients. Another good tip is to avoid cleansers for sensitive skin that may have a lot of oil although it claims to be a 'gentle' cleanser. Wash your face twice a day and moisturize adequately to take good care of the skin. 2. Take your acne treatments regularly If you’re getting help from dermatologists to help solve your skin issues, then good for you! Too many products in the market can make you feel overwhelmed by the choices, and sometimes, they don’t even work. Getting all the help you need from the experts can give you a thorough assessment of your condition. It’s really important to take your acne treatments and medications as prescribed by your doctor, and be really disciplined about it if you want to see changes. Some medications should also be taken even after your skin has cleared to prevent future breakouts. If you’re not sure, do consult with your doctor instead of making decisions on your own that could do more harm than good. 3. Apply Oil-Free Moisturizer or Gel You have to keep your skin moisturized even when it is oily. Try a moisturizing lotion or gel that is lighter than creams. But whatever you choose, make sure it is labelled non-comedogenic. It shouldn’t make your face feel more oily and greasy too. You might have to try different brands before getting the one that you like. A water-based gel is a great choice, as well as products that have hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid and dimethicone. 4. Apply your sunscreen UV damage can quicken your aging process, and it can also make your acne scars like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation become worse. It's always a matter of trial and error when it comes to a suitable sunscreen, so do your research and read some reviews about the sunscreens of your choice to find the right one. But whatever your choice is, remember sunscreen is the most important step in your skincare routine! Any results from your products or treatments can be reversed by the damaging UV rays. 5. Facial treatments can help! Facials do wonders when you seek help from experts and reliable clinics.
