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. If you need any facial treatments to help with your skin, then fret not - Trambellir has got you covered.

What Breast Augmentation Really Is

Some Tips Before You Give Breast Augmentation a Go By Kath Wong | January 5 2020 Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure to transform the size and shape of your breasts. As breasts are one of the significant symbols of femininity, breast augmentation has become the most commonly performed cosmetic surgical procedure over the last decade and nowadays people are still planning for it. Although there are other methods that can be done alternatively to boob jobs, this is still the most permanent procedure known. The Breast Augmentation Breast augmentation, or breast implants, involves the carefully selecting of implants to place within the patient's breasts. The overall procedure takes about 60 to 90 minutes to complete, but the results you get after that is worth the time spent. There are different types of inserts to consider, mainly saline and silicone breast implants. Saline inserts are filled with sterile saltwater and typically come in a more uniform, one-size-fits-all types of size. Silicone implants, on the other hand, are made of silicone gel, giving a more natural breast tissue feeling. The Choosing of implants There are many different implant sizes and shapes available. Even after you have chosen the type of implant, there's still the shape and size to consider. In the case where you’d choose to go for silicone, did you know there are three different shapes of silicone implants? These include smooth round, textured round, and textured anatomical teardrop implants; round implants give breasts a fuller look in person, while smooth inserts feel softer. Textured implants have a slightly lower rate of capsular contracture (scar tissue forming around the implant), and this material of implants tend to move around less when they are textured, which means they might not have that much of a natural appearance. The Risks and Recovery As for how the surgical or invasive treatments are, there are some risks involved along with the potential complications, either major or minor depending on the conditions. It is advised to discuss all the potential risks that may result in further complications afterwards prior to the surgery. Possible risks include: ・Anesthesia risks ・Bleeding/hematoma ・Infection ・Changes in nipple or breast sensation ・Poor scarring ・Wrong or faulty position of time implant ・Implant leakage or rupture ・The formation of tight scar tissue around the implant ・Fluid accumulation ・Wrinkling of the skin over the implant ・Persistent pain ・Possibility of revision surgery In regard to recovery, under a long-acting anesthetic that helps with the pain-free for 72 hours, typically you have to spend about one hour in postoperative recovery before heading back to your place. After the recovery period, you may experience chest tightness and soreness, which would subside with time.

Robotic Prostatectomy - What Men Must Know (Selangor, Malaysia)

The Minimally Invasive Prostate Removal Solution For Men By Kath Wong | January 4 2020 While women think they have lots of health problems, men have theirs as well. These days, there is an increase in the number of men who are diagnosed with prostate cancer and this is inevitable. Fortunately, as technology develops, a specific device especially known for robotic prostate cancer surgery can help to treat the problems. What Is Robotic Prostate Surgery? Robotic prostatectomy is a minimally invasive procedure for prostate removal and cancer treatment surgery using radical prostatectomy that is also known as Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RALP). Robotic surgery is acquired remote control operation where the surgeon sits and monitors at a distance from the patient. The procedure does not even require the surgeon to be present at the same place as the patient, this is done virtually where the entire movements of the surgeon are translated through the sensitive fibres of the machine for the instructions. Features of Robotic Prostate Surgery The da Vinci system used by robotic prostate cancer surgery offers several advantages over the typical surgical method when compared alongside. The advantages are: ・Clinically Superior Results ・Reduced Risk of Complications ・Quicker Recovery Period ・Minimize Scarring As the operating arms of the da Vinci Surgical System is designed to avoid contact between the operating instruments and the walls of the incision, the da Vinci system greatly mitigates the risk of infection for robotic prostate surgery. The da Vinci robotic prostate surgery system utilizes a much less invasive technique requiring four to five small incisions, each less than two inches. These smaller incisions will heal significantly faster than the large incision needed in traditional surgery, which means there is a lesser chance of infection than the normal surgical procedure. The robotic prostate surgery procedure leaves incisions that heal with little or no visible scarring. In addition to the obvious aesthetic value, minimizing scar tissue on the interior walls of the incision promotes better healing. With all the advantages mentioned, it is worth considering Robotic Prostatectomy as the best solution available for prostate cancer.

Lift Sagging Eyelids with Ptosis Treatment (Tokyo, Japan)

A chance to restore youthful eyes with surgical or non-surgical ptosis treatment. By Azra Shuib | January 3 2020 They say that the eyes are the window to the soul - and windows should be opened wide to let the soul shine. But for some people, aging can get in the way of opening their eyes wide enough. Sagging eyelids, or known as 'sleepy eyes' can make you look tired, sleepy and years older than your actual age. You might have noticed that some older people have sagging eyelids that are moderate or some, on a severe note too. The truth is, sagging eyelids can become so serious that they block your field of vision. If there is one thing associated with old age, then it's wrinkled. Your skin loses its elasticity and volume as you age, and continuous gravity pull over the years can lead to excess skin and fat deposits accumulating on your eyelids. Understanding ptosis Ptosis refers to drooping of the upper eyelid. The droop can descend over the pupil, blocking full vision and making the person looks sleepy. Ptosis can affect both children and adults, but it usually occurs because of aging. The condition can also happen due to injury, the problem with the levator muscles (muscles that lift the eyelid), the aftereffect of cataract surgery or other corrective eye surgery. An eye tumour, neurological disorder or systemic disease like diabetes are other causes of drooping eyelids. Ptosis treatment is a surgery that can help to tighten levator muscles to lift the eyelid, giving you an improved eye appearance and vision. Ptosis treatments Ptosis treatments consist of 2 types - incisional and non-incisional. Your treatment depends on your current condition. If it's serious, which means your eyelids are sagging too much and you have puffy eyelids due to fat deposits, you might need ptosis surgery (incisional). And if your condition is moderate and your eyelids are relatively thin and not puffy, then non-incisional treatment would suffice. Ptosis surgery procedure 1. Overall eye condition will be examined. 2. Incision area will be predicted. 3. Anesthesia will be administered. 4. An opening in the skin of the upper eyelid will be made. 5. Stitches to tighten the small muscle that raises the eyelid will be placed. 6. The incision will be closed with ultra-fine threads. 7. Patients should return 7 days after the treatment for the removal of threads. Ptosis non-surgical treatment Non-incisional treatment involves correction with thread and tissue adhesion. The dual force can lift the excess skin effectively, improving your condition. Post care of ptosis treatment You need to take good care of yourself once you've had ptosis treatment, especially if it's incisional. Plus, we only have one pair of eyes so taking care of them is vital. Generally, your recovery should aim at reducing increased blood flow to the eyes that can lead to strain, pain and internal bleeding. Post care measures include: 1. No makeup should be done around the eyes until the next day post thread removal for faster wound healing. 2. Elevate your head and use cold compresses as much as possible after surgery to reduce swelling. 3. After surgery, the eyelid can become stiffer than normal which can make the eyes dry. Use the lubricating ointment provided by the doctor when necessary. Getting a treatment Japan is famous for its innovative medical technology as well as the experts' extensive experience. You should consider scheduling a treatment session with our affiliated clinic to ensure safe and responsible care.

A Non-surgical Nose Job (Tokyo, Japan)

This is how you get a tall nose in 5 minutes. By Kath Wong | January 1 2020 Nose reshaping has been a trend for quite a long time now since people who are unhappy about their nose appearance can head forward to the clinic and get the job done timely. A nose job can be both ways, either to get rid of the bump or make it look taller. While the typical rhinoplasty surgery can simply fix it, a liquid nose job makes it even easier nowadays. A liquid nose job, or in other words: nose injection is known as non-surgical rhinoplasty. No surgery needed to be done, just injecting the liquid filler is sufficient enough to reshape the nose with hands. What is it? Non-surgical rhinoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting fillers into the nose to alter its shape, the nostrils or the bridge height. The most common fillers used in the procedure is hyaluronic acid fillers (HA filler). The whole procedure takes just 5 minutes to complete unless a numbing cream is pre-applied. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes for the numbing cream to function prior to the treatment. Before and After, any painful experience? From the scale where we compare nose injection with BOTOX, cheek injection and lip injection, BOTOX is known to have the least painful experience whereas cheek injection falls as the most painful experience among all. Lip injection falls in the middle and nose injection surprisingly lands near BOTOX. Nose injection, however, can cause some people to feel slight discomfort after the treatment along with possible bruising and most likely swelling. How long does nose injection last? Being a non-surgical procedure, unlike a surgical rhinoplasty, it somehow indicates itself as a temporary result that lasts only as long as the fillers do between 6 to 12 months. Some people have it last for 10 to 12 months, depending on the conditions. Need a redo? As mentioned the nose injection does not last permanently, it can be considered as a benefit where a redo is completely possible. For the ones who are really not happy with the result anymore and wish to redo it, the process can be removed by injecting the enzyme hyaluronidase that dissolves the HA fillers. This breaks down the fillers that are hyaluronic acid. Unfortunately, if the fillers are not hyaluronic-acid based, the process cannot be done the same way. Another tip of nose injection is that people actually make use of this to try out if having a straighter nose would suit them before going for actual rhinoplasty surgery. Once again, the procedure can be undone, as long as the fillers used are truly hyaluronic acid-based.

A Day At Tokyo Smiles Express (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)

Time To Smile Confidently Again In Just 30 Minutes. By Kath Wong | December 31 2019 The moment we walk out to socialize, the most important thing to be maintained seems to be our communication and smiles. While all of us wish for the perfect smiles with white flawless teeth, most of the cases of not being able to have naturally white teeth are due to genetics and other factors include discolouration, as well as aging. The colour of teeth can be affected by the accumulation of surface stains acquired from the use of tobacco products and the consumption of certain foods or drinks, this is known as discolouration. On the other hand, as we age, the enamel becomes thinner as the thickness of dentin increases. The dentin of teeth has a naturally yellower tone than that of the enamel that covers it; thus, this leads to teeth being yellower how it used to be. Brushing teeth daily does not help with the pigmented or yellowed teeth. Fortunately, from the development of technology way back then, Tokyo Smiles Express provides teeth whitening services. What is Teeth Whitening and How is it done in Tokyo Smiles Express? Without shaving and coating, teeth whitening involves teeth bleaching by using a chemical to decompose the pigments stuck on teeth to revive their natural whiteness. Tokyo Smiles Express has been providing the most convenient teeth whitening services for almost 5 years now and the procedure has always been kept simple and fast. When you walk into Tokyo Smiles Express, first of all, you will be guided to have a seat and instructions will be given clearly along with a declaration sheet. Next, a brief teeth colour check-up will be done by comparing your teeth to a demo teeth model that contains different common tones of teeth in order to find out your current teeth colour and to which extent you desire your teeth to have (you will be carefully advised and recommended to meet the suitability). A relaxing session of teeth whitening lasts around 30 minutes; usually, 2 sessions will be taken up for effective results. Prior to the LED light irradiation procedure, the specific whitening gel will be evenly applied to teeth. The component of teeth whitening gel is a combination of adjusted urea peroxide and hydrogen peroxide which are often used in oxydol (disinfectant). The ingredients are not harmful to the body, a small amount of gel swallowed unintentionally will not cause any risks to the body. The gel contains an active whitening ingredient that penetrates enamel efficiently to discolour the enamel that has been pigmented for a long time. What happens after? After 30 minutes to 1 hour of treatment, the water content of the teeth surface is lowered and teeth will be slightly more sensitive than usual. Within 24 hours after whitening, some points will be advised for post-operative care to prevent unwanted pigmentation to interfere as the teeth would still be sensitive and absorb colours easily. The following list is the food restrictions for at least the first 24 hours after the treatment: ・Dark Coloured Drinks: Coffee, tea, juice, red wine, etc. ・Carbonated Drinks ・Dark Seasonings and Spices: Curry, ketchup, chilli sauce, soy sauce, wasabi, mustard ・Dark Colored Fruits: Blueberry, grape, orange, grapefruit, etc. ・Dark Colored Vegetables: Spinach, eggplant, pumpkin, tomato, etc. ・Others: Chocolate, food, or drinks that contain artificial colouring ・Smoking and using dark coloured mouthwash should as well refrain. After the teeth whitening procedure, some temporary tingling sensation or slight pain may be felt after which would subside within 1 to 2 days. The level of pain varies depending on individuals; should the pain persists, it is advised to contact the clinic immediately.

Mongolian Fold Correction - For The Almond Eyes (Tokyo, Japan)

How to Get Rid of Epicanthal Folds? By Kath Wong | December 30 2019 Have you noticed that some people have longer and sharper eyes than you actually do and you just can’t really find the reason? It could be because of the mongolian folds! Mongolian folds, also known as epicanthal folds, are the folds at the inner corner of the eyes. Everyone has different fold shapes all around the world; it is most common for Asian people to have mongolian folds. Mongolian folds form a web across the eye and cover the medial canthus; this can make the eyes look smaller and tired. The type of eye surgery to go for correcting mongolian folds is Epicanthoplasty. The treatment aims to unfold and lengthen the inner parts of the eye so that the eyes would appear bigger and more attentive. How are Mongolian Folds Corrected? Epicanthoplasty involves making fine incisions in the epicanthal fold region to form a network of skin flaps, then extra skin will be removed. The treatment follows by suturing; this avoids or minimizes scar formation. For some people, just lengthening the folds outward does not help to make the eyes look more energized as they have monolids. A combination with double eyelid surgery may be recommended to perform along with epicanthoplasty to optimize the result. Moreover, there is also another treatment that is recommended to be done along with epicanthoplasty and double eyelid surgery to further enlarge the eyes: Eye Corner Lowering Surgery. In some cases, just unfolding the inner corner of the eyes do not help much in making the eyes look larger. Eye corner lowering surgery is normally done by pulling the eye corner down to expand the shape of the eye. Possible Risks and Side Effects of Mongolian Folds Correction ・As the surgery is performed at the inner corner of the eyes, there is a high risk for tear ducts to be damaged as they are very close to the operation area. ・Poor scarring may be one of the problems if the treatment is not performed properly. For normal cases, scars can be noticeable for a few months and disappear over time. ・Allergies to the anesthesia or sutures could be one of the risks, but it is highly unlikely as skin testing for allergies is usually done prior to the treatment. ・Another extremely rare risks include infection at the incision site. Despite being rare, this complication can be easily solved by oral or topical antibiotics. Overall, the procedure is easily performed without any problems, with high satisfaction of a brand new set of bigger, refreshed eyes.  Mongolian Fold Formation @ Tokyo

Eye Fat Removal - Reduce Bagginess from Eyelids (Tokyo, Japan)

Did you know sagging skin can get in the way of your vision? By Azra Shuib | December 27 2019 Your skin will lose volume and elasticity with age and combined with constant gravity pull, this can cause excessive skin to collect on the upper eyelid. In some circumstances, sagging skin can obstruct your eyesight. Apart from getting in your way of seeing, sagging eyelids can also make you look years older and tired. In serious cases like this, an eye fat removal procedure, also known as blepharoplasty, is recommended. Eye fat removal is a procedure that can remove fat deposits and swell on the eyelids. This is done by making a small incision (few millimetres) on the eyelid crease and then removing the fat that accumulates on the eyelid. By applying this method, the surgery will not leave a noticeable or visible scar. If there’s any possibility that there would be dents or sunken appearance on the eyelids, then this procedure is not recommended. How do I prepare myself for Eye Fat Removal? You should consult with your doctor regarding your expectations so that you will be adequately informed. Next, arrange for someone to drive you home after the surgery. And plan to stay at home and rest after the procedure to avoid dry eyes and other complications. You should also quit smoking several weeks before the treatment so you could heal faster. Eye Fat Removal Procedure Generally, these are the steps involved in the treatment: 1. Doctor will examine your eyelid condition. 2. Incision line will then be predicted. 3. Anesthesia will be given - so don’t worry about the pain! 4. Incision will then be made along the natural line or crease of the eyelid. 5. Through the cuts, excess fat will be removed. 6. Incisions will be closed with very small stitches, so they won’t be visible. 7. End of treatment. You can go home on the same day. How will the recovery look like? It is common to have scars and swelling, but scars will disappear within 3 months. About 70%-80% of the swelling will reduce in the first-week post-procedure. You should also look after yourself by following these post-care tips: ・Be gentle with the treatment site to avoid possible complications like bleeding and infection. Refrain from rubbing your eyes. ・Avoid vigorous activities that can increase blood flow to the eyes like exercising or looking at computer and mobile screens for a long time. ・It is normal to feel tired while recovering as the healing process can take a lot of your energy. So take naps when you feel tired to rest your eyes. This way you will heal faster. Will the results be satisfying? Yes, you can see immediate improvement after the procedure and the appearance will continue to improve from the first to the second month. You will get an overall fresher look with more youthful eyes. Swollen eyelids will greatly improve and you will definitely feel more confident with your look.

Temple Lift Treatment - A Brow Lift For Sagginess (Tokyo, Japan)

A minimally invasive procedure to remove excess eyelid skin. By Kath Wong | December 25th, 2019 Looking at ourselves in the mirror every day, sometimes we wonder, "Is my brow deepening?" or "Have I grown excess skin?" Well, those who might be able to spot on little changes every day may be able to answer those questions easily. But for most of us, it could be quite challenging to notice them. Unless we make a side by side comparison of the 'before and afters', then it'll be easy to distinguish. Eyebrows are considered to be an important part of our face. When the brows appear slightly raised only at the sides, it looks attractive; but if the brows suddenly descend dramatically, this can make the eye area look tired and unenergized. In the case where you want to maintain youthful eyes, here’s the thing you can consider fixing other than your eyes: Temple Lift. What is Temple Lift? Also known as a temporal brow lift, temple lift is a minimally-invasive plastic surgery procedure performed to elevate the outer brow, soften crow’s feet, and tighten the area around the temples. From the description of being minimally invasive, it is also known to have relatively short downtime. Temple lift is sometimes performed as a stand-alone procedure, but most of the time it is performed with other surgeries such as blepharoplasty, as well as a facelift. It can be performed with smaller incisions well hidden within the hairline, resulting in easier recovery and minimal scarring. To begin the procedure, local anesthesia will be given. A small incision will be placed within the hairline above the ear to minimize visible scars. Through this incision, underlying tissue will be mobilized and then suspended to elevate the outside of the brow and smooth crow’s feet. What are the benefits of Temple Lift? Temple lift surgery can relieve heaviness significantly and restore the optimum symmetry in the temple and brow areas. This procedure can help to soften crow’s feet lines and create a fresher, rejuvenated appearance in the eye and brow area. After the treatment, sutures may take 7 to 10 days to be removed; but the good part is that no recovery period is necessary as the sutures will be well hidden within the hair. The Side Effects of Temple Lift Everything comes with risks, be it big or small. After the treatment, temporary numbness on the forehead is normal for some time. There may be some difference in height of the eyebrow position but they are not easily noticeable when most people have had this issue before the treatment without notice. Other than that, scars normally recover well but there are some scars that may lead to hair loss, which has to be masked by a hair transplant. Overall, there is not much to be worried about as the procedure is known to be minimally invasive.

Seoul - Where Beauty Treatments Are Worth Traveling For

Don’t leave Seoul without a treatment or two! By Azra Shuib | December 24th, 2019 Apart from its widespread and gigantic entertainment industry, South Korea is also known for its beauty craze. From Korean beauty products to famous facial treatments all the way up to plastic surgeries. And being blessed with the beautiful city of Seoul, it’s no wonder why tourists would flock there all year round. So if you’re travelling to Seoul soon, make sure you get your beauty treatments there and leave the place with your dream skin - the perfect souvenir from South Korea. Experts recommend getting facials once every month, but when in Seoul - you know the drill. In 2018, South Korea has an estimated worth of $13.1 billion in sales for beauty markets. You might have also known just how they see beauty - a necessity rather than a once in a while indulgence. With such a holistic approach to beauty, you can expect innovative yet cosy and traditional beauty centres in Seoul. So here is a list of beauty treatments you must consider booking when in Seoul: 1. Aqua Peel Also known as skin scaling, is a treatment that cleanses facial pores. This treatment uses AHA and BHA-infused solutions as well as a suction nozzle to suck dirt from the skin while infusing and saturating your pores with nutrient-rich serums, resulting in a hydrating effect. It has no downtime, and it’s suitable for sensitive skin since it’s very soothing and rejuvenating. It does not leave you with a raw or tight feeling of the skin due to the suction of blackheads and other blemishes. Aqua Peel is also safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women. 2. Silhouette Soft Face Lifting This popular and non-surgical cosmetic treatment procedure is for people who are facing problems such as sagginess, wrinkles, chubby cheeks, and double chin, among others. It has been reviewed as a non-surgical procedure with a strong lifting effect. The procedure involves a double-action effect: an immediate repositioning of the tissue and the gradual regeneration of collagen. The process gives positive results by having both tissue compression and skin elevation happening at the same time. As repositioning works, the regeneration of collagen happens gradually. 3. Dermal Filler These are hyaluronic acid injections done to fill up wrinkles so your skin will look plumper. It is also used in lips enhancement. And no, it won’t look unnatural – when done by the right doctor, the changes will look so subtle, but everyone will notice just how gorgeous and youthful you look. And since hyaluronic acid is natural, it is safe. And hyaluronic acid has the ability to store moisture which helps to maintain skin hydration. It can treat wrinkles, tear trough, sagging cheeks and thin lips, among others. 4. Eye bag removal Eyebag removal is a surgical (as well as a non-surgical) procedure that can be performed to restore fresher and more youthful eyes by removing excess sagging skin and fatty tissues from under the eye. The treatment, also known as lower eyelid surgery, is an ideal solution to puffy eyes and loose skin. It is able to improve facial appearance by removing ageing signs like crow’s feet. There are 2 types of procedure - Lower Blepharoplasty and Non-Incision Surgery. Those are only a few among other treatments available in South Korea. If you’re in a hurry and can’t seem to choose the perfect treatment - don’t fret. We provide links down below where you can browse through the options for Korean beauty treatments, and book directly so you can enjoy your travels without draggy booking procedures: Aqua Peel   ||   Silhouette Soft Facelift   ||   Skin Boosters

All About Face and Neck Lift Procedure (Seoul & Bali)

Win your battle against aging. By Azra Shuib | December 20th, 2019 Almost everything gets better with age - your finances, your job, your time management and overall quality of life. You have also probably started to adopt healthy habits and diets to keep up with your age. So aging is not that bad after all - until you look in the mirror and witness wrinkles forming. As individuals age, their skin and structural tissues of the face and neck will gradually lose tone. At the same time, volume in the underlying bone and fat of the face disappears. Your skin will become less elastic, and over time, your skin on the face and neck will sag, making you look tired. These changes will take place even faster if you have spent your younger days smoking, heavy drinking and neglecting sunscreen. Face-lift (rhytidectomy) and neck lift (platysmaplasty) are surgical procedures that can improve the visible signs of aging in the face and neck. The procedures will alter the muscle and facial tissues to get a more youthful contour to the face. Essentially, the facial muscles will be pulled up - that’s why it’s called a lift. Excess skin will then be removed before the skin is sutured closed. A neck lift is usually done as part of a face-lift to reduce excess fat and sagging skin on the neck. Results are very long-lasting, which can remain for up to 15-20 years. Meanwhile, in the non-incision method of face lifting, medical threads will be inserted beside and under the ear. The results may last up to 2 years, depending on the patient’s lifestyle. A face and neck lift is suitable for those with these facial conditions: ・Sagging jawline due to aging or weight loss ・Sagging cheeks ・Drooping skin on the eye area and the corners of the mouth ・Sagging, wrinkly skin with excess fat on the neck A lot of people refrain from getting a face-lift because it’s associated with plastic surgery. And here’s the thing - there is nothing plastic about the surgery. In fact, the word “plastic” comes from the Greek word “plastikos” which means “to mold”, “grow” or “to form”. So of course, in this procedure, your face will be molded and formed into a new contour and shape. Usually, after the procedure, doctors would recommend that you don’t drive for the first week to 10 days after surgery as a measure to take care of the neck by not jerking it around. Swelling and bruising are normal and will diminish in two weeks. Follow-up will be done 7 days after the procedure, and the second follow-up visit is recommended to be done 1 or 2 months after the procedure to monitor progress.
