Beauty Treatments

Beautician Consultation
 
 
Treatment for Lines and Wrinkles
Right Candidates Men or women looking to combat the first signs of ageing temporarily, as well those who are not ready or not wish to undergo a more long-term effective procedure (i.e. face lifting) You can see the difference after 3-4 days reaching its peak after 15 days. Its overall effectiveness lasts approximately 4-6 months and it depends on the dose quantity injected in different muscles. Each dose depends on the muscle volume, area of treatment
 
Chemical Peel
Chemical peeling is a popular, non-surgical procedure that uses a chemical solution to improve the texture of the facial skin and it is helpful for those men or women with facial blemishes or wrinkles or even to freshen up a tired face.
 
Lip Augmentation
Lip surgery is another technique whereby you can improve the appearance of your lips. Areas that can be improved are the actual size, shape and definition (lip line). The main objectives of this type of treatment are to enhance definition, volume, projection and to bring them into balance with the rest of the facial features. These types of procedures can be done either by surgical or non-surgical methods with the use of injectable fillers. Most candidates choose the non-surgical procedure, being risk free, since the results are visible right from the start and takes place step by step with the candidates’ co-operation. There is a wide choice of materials and fillers used but we prefer the safest and most appropriate for each case.
 
Skin Peel
Chemical peeling is a popular, non-surgical procedure that uses a chemical solution to improve the texture of the facial skin and it is helpful for those men or women with facial blemishes or wrinkles or even to freshen up a tired face Advantages of TCA It is considered more effective in darker skin and is mainly used for deep-depth peeling reflecting the concentration of solution used. Disadvantages of TCA Sometimes, the Doctor may require to pre-treat the skin with a pre-peeling cream in order to reduce pigmentation reaction. Regular peeling treatments are required to maintain the new fresher look and you should be able to return to work after 3-4 days.
 

Hair Loss

Hair Loss Specialist Consultation
 
 
Hair Loss Treatment
Hair loss is mainly due to: Family history Hormone sensitivity Aging The above factors lead to the general thinning of hair or in the reduction of follicles. What is micro-transplantation? It refers to the surgical removal of skin with hair, and placement after segmentation, in mini and micro- grafts in the head providing permanent hair. It comes usually from the back of the head which are genetically programmed not to shed. The transplant hairs are growing normally for the rest of your life. Surgical reduction of alopecia It refers to the surgical removal of bald hair surface. It is performed in conjunction with hair transplantation aimed at the reduced number of transplants needed. It is usually recommended in large bald surfaces.
 

Plastic Surgery

Breast Implants
The operation process includes: 1)A meeting with the surgeon 2)The selection of the implant size and type 3)The operation itself, how is performed, how long will it take Breast augmentation is usually performed under a general anaesthesia
 
Breast Lift
Before you decide to go ahead with the procedure, think carefully about your expectations and discuss them with the surgeon. In your initial consultation, it’s important to discuss your expectations honestly with the surgeon and to listen to his opinion. Every patient has a different view of what is desirable size and shape for breasts. The surgeon will examine your breasts and he will recommend the best technique appropriate to your situation. He should also describe the procedure in detail, explaining risk, scars etc. Depending on your age and family history, the surgeon may also require having a mammogram before surgery. The surgery Breast lifts are usually performed under general anaesthesia but in selected cases the surgeon may select local anaesthesia combined with sedation. Breasts are lifted higher while incision takes the shape of an anchor. Some patients, especially those with relatively minimal sagging require less extensive incisions. After the surgery After surgery, you will be wearing a surgical bra for the best moulding without any feeling of discomfort. First change of bandages will take place the following morning and the only stitches removed are the ones around the areola. Getting back to normal Healing is a gradual process and you should be able to return to work after a week. You will need to wear the surgical bra for around 3 weeks.
 
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction can be performed right after a girl finished comprehensive school. Breast reduction isn’t performed until a woman’s breast are fully developed (usually aged 18).The procedure is usually performed for physical relief as well as cosmetic since women with large breasts, experience back and neck pain, and at the same time they would prefer a smaller, better proportioned breast Candidates for breast reduction Breast reduction can be performed right after a girl finished comprehensive school. Breast reduction isn’t performed until a woman’s breast are fully developed (usually aged 18).The procedure is usually performed for physical relief as well as cosmetic since women with large breasts, experience back and neck pain, and at the same time they would prefer a smaller, better proportioned breast.
 
Facelift
The best candidate for a facelift The best candidate for a facelift is a man or woman whose face and neck have started to sag, but whose skin still has some elasticity. Most patients are in their forties-sixties, but facelifts can be done successfully on older people. A facelift can make you look younger and fresher, and it may enhance your self- confidence in the process without changing your face. The procedure is performed at one of our private hospitals and in most cases requires general anesthesia. In special cases it can be done with local anesthesia in combination with sedation
 
Genital Reshaping
 
 
Labiaplasty
 
 
Liposuction
Candidates The best candidates for liposuction are people with firm skin, who have pockets of excess fat in certain areas that do not respond to the weight-loss methods, i.e. exercise,diet. Areas of fat that can be treated are the chin (double chin), tummy, thighs, arms,buttocks and cuffs for women, while for men in areas such as the tummy, chin, hips, and breasts in cases of gynecomastia
 
Male Breast Reduction
How does it look? Gynecomastia appears either as a small increase of the glandular tissue or as the overdevelopment of the breasts due to excess fat and soft skin, “woman’s breasts”. Surgery This procedure entails the removal of the excessive glandular tissue and also fat that exists in most cases. Liposuction is used for cases where excess fat is the main cause.
 
Oculoplastics - Eyelid Surgery
 
 
Blepharoplasty
 
 
Otoplasty
Operation The surgeon makes a small incision in the back of the ear and then will sculpt the cartilage and bend it back toward the head. Special stitches are used to maintain the new shape, and in all cases the scar behind the ear disappears in time. After the Operation Adults and children can return home after the operation. The patient’s head is wrapped in a light bandage to provide the best moulding and healing for around 48-72 hours. Any activity in which the ear may be bent should be avoided for 4 weeks or so. Most adults can return to work after a week. We also recommend to inform the teacher to keep an eye on the child for a few days.
 
Plastic Surgeon Consultation
 
 
Rhinoplasty
The best candidate for rhinoplasty Every person who feels discomfort due to nose deformities. Rhinoplasty is considered to reduce or increase the size of your nose, to change the shape of the tip or bridge, or to narrow the span of the nostrils, to change the angle between your nose and your upper lip or to correct a birth defect or injury, or to relieve breathing problems. It can also be performed after an unsuccessful nose operation. Other candidates are those who wish to achieve a very small change.
 
Thigh Lift
 
 
Tummy Tuck
This type of procedure is particularly helpful to women who, after pregnancies have stretched their abdominal muscles and skin, and also to both men and women after dieting and loss of weight in short periods of time. This excess fat and loose skin is difficult to respond to exercise and diet, particularly after a certain age. As such, a lot of people feel frustrated since continuous exercise and aerobics prove to be unhelpful Abdominoplasty helps enormously. It is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin while simultaneously tightens the tone of the muscles. The cost for this is a scar (depending upon the extent of the problem), just above the pubic area which is covered up by the underwear
