On average almost every woman spends hours waxing, shaving, and removing unwanted hair from different body parts on a weekly or monthly basis. Besides eating up a considerable amount of time and energy, such hair removal methods also tend to cause great pain and discomfort. Luckily, modern technology has provided us with quick and pain-free techniques to get rid of unwanted body hair. Dive into this blog to learn how laser hair treatment in Dubai can make your life easier. What Is Laser Hair Removal Treatment? Laser hair removal treatment uses pulses of laser light to damage the hair follicles. It involves exposing the hair to a beam of light which gets absorbed by the pigment found in the hair. But as the energy gets absorbed, it heats up the hair thus destroying the hair follicles in the process. The laser hair removal is done with the help of a hand-held device that emits concentrated laser beams. By damaging the tube-like structures lying at the root of the hair, laser treatment inhibits hair growth. Here are the top six benefits of getting laser hair removal treatment. No More Ingrown Hair An ingrown hair is a tiny hair that becomes curved as it regrows from the skin after shaving, tweezing, or waxing. Ingrown hairs form a bumpy appearance on the skin with little dark spots and may become painful as they tend to be quite hard. With laser treatment, you need not worry about such ingrown hair as laser effectively eliminates such irritations for people with sensitive skin. Long-lasting Results Laser hair removal treatment provides long-lasting results. Many people experience permanent hair loss after the laser sessions. You may need to get a new session done after a few months or years but for the most part, you are able to feel a significant difference in hair growth. High Precision Many people worry about the side effects of applying an intense beam of light on their fragile skin. However, it has been proven that laser stays quite precise in targeting coarse hair that affects your appearance. It also selectively leaves the surrounding area to avoid unintendedly damaging and harming the skin. Speedy treatment Laser hair treatments are known to be quick. It takes a laser a few milliseconds to target and erase a large number of hair at once. For instance, your Provider only needs to spend a minute to treat your upper lip area. In this way, you can get the session done quickly and forget about the worries of missing and fixing spots. Painless Procedure Some practitioners might use topical anesthetics over the target sites before the treatment to make them numb. In this way, you feel only minimal discomfort and no sharp pain. In short, the procedure is way less painful than the waxing process. However, your treated body parts may get tender and red following the treatment. But it goes away in a matter of a few days. No Need to Regrow Hair To make non-laser treatments work, you often need to let your body hair grow beforehand as you cannot apply the method unless your hair reaches the right length. But with laser treatment, you can shave as much as you want between the laser sessions; without worrying about growing your hair to the right size. Need Help?

Nonsurgical skin tightening treatments are cosmetic procedures that Plastic Surgeons use to tighten moderately lax skin on the face, neck, and body resulting in a more youthful appearance without the need for surgery. With aging, the production of collagen and elastin – the proteins that help our skin to stay plump, smooth, and firm – declines. This leads to the skin sagging on the face, neck, and body. Nonsurgical skin tightening treatments can temporarily keep the aging process at bay and restore a smoother, firmer, and younger-looking appearance with little to no downtime. Good Candidate for Non-Surgical Skin Tightening Nonsurgical skin tightening is best suited for people who are bothered by mild to moderate skin laxity. The ideal candidate should also be healthy with no underlying medical conditions, a nonsmoker, and have a positive outlook about the results of the treatment. Although there are very few side effects associated with these treatments, they are not recommended for pregnant women. Types of Non-Surgical Skin Tightening Treatments Radiofrequency (RF) Treatments RF treatments tighten the skin by heating it to stimulate collagen production. It focuses on the epidermal layers to achieve a smoother, firmer appearance. RF treatments can be used to reduce superficial wrinkles. RF treatments are FDA approved to treat the body, hands, neck, and face. The treatments involve little to no discomfort and do not require downtime. Two to six RF treatments are usually required to achieve the desired results. Examples of RF treatments include RF microneedling and Thermage. Ultrasound Skin Tightening Ultrasound skin tightening treatments also heat the skin but at specific depths and locations to promote collagen production and make the skin smoother and firmer. Ultrasound skin tightening can be used on older individuals who are looking for a mini facelift but without surgery and for younger individuals who want to maintain their skin profile while preventing the skin laxity that comes with aging. Ultherapy is the most common type of ultrasound skin tightening treatment and it is FDA approved to treat the brow, chin, neck, and chest. This treatment helps to postpone the need for a facelift and the results are usually visible within 2-3 months and can last for up to a year. Combining Intense Pulsed Light with RadioFrequency Treatment IPL can be combined with RF energy to heat deeper skin layers and induce the natural skin response thereby triggering collagen production. IPL can treat a larger area of skin while RF energy can treat deeper skin layers. Combining these two treatments can be extremely effective as multiple skin concerns can be treated at the same time. The most common combination of these treatments is the Velashape. There is little to no discomfort involved during this treatment and the results appear gradually as the skin produces new collagen. A series of treatments are required for optimal results. Nonsurgical skin tightening treatments are an effective and low-risk alternative to surgical treatments, it is important to deal with a licensed and experienced provider.

Breast augmentation is also known as breast enhancement. It is a Plastic Surgery procedure designed to increase the breast size using either breast implants or fat transfer. Breast augmentation with implants involves placing the implants under the muscles or above the muscles whereas fat transfer in breast augmentation involves harvesting fat from another part of the body and injecting it into the breasts to add volume. Some women undergo breast augmentation to rebuild their breasts after various conditions such as mastectomy or injury while others do it to feel more feminine and confident. What Breast Augmentation can do Breast augmentation surgery can help with the following: Enhance the appearance of small breasts by increasing their fullness and projection Correct asymmetry Improve body balance between breast and hip contours Enhance your self-confidence and self-image However, breast augmentation cannot correct severely drooping breasts. For such a case, a breast lift may be required. A breast lift can be done on its own or combined with breast augmentation. Good Candidate for Breast Augmentation You can be the ideal candidate for breast augmentation surgery if you meet the following criteria: The breasts are fully developed, You feel like your breasts are too small, and it bothers you, You are dissatisfied with the loss of volume and shape of your breasts following weight loss, pregnancy, or breastfeeding, You want to achieve fuller breasts, You have asymmetrical breasts, One or both of your breasts has failed to develop properly or has an elongated shape, You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, You are physically healthy, You have realistic expectations. Breast Augmentation procedure Breast augmentation surgery can be done in a surgical center or a hospital outpatient facility. The procedure does not require a hospital stay, and you can go home the same day. During a breast augmentation procedure, your Plastic Surgeon will make an incision in either one of the following three places: Around the nipple (periareolar) The crease under the breast (inframammary) Under the arm (axillary) After making the incision, the Plastic Surgeon separates the breast tissue from the muscles and connective tissue of the chest. This creates a pocket in front or behind the pectoral muscle which is the outermost muscle of the chest wall. The Plastic Surgeon then inserts the implant into this pocket and centers it behind the nipple. Silicone implants come pre-filled with silicone gel while saline implants are inserted empty and filled with sterile water once they are in place. The incisions are then closed with sutures and bandaged with surgical tape or skin adhesive. Recovery and Results After the surgery, the breasts will be wrapped in gauze dressings and an elastic bandage or a support bra to help minimize the swelling and support the breasts as they heal. You will experience swelling, soreness, and bruising for a few weeks after the surgery. Most women can return to work after a few weeks but strenuous activities should be avoided until you are cleared by your Plastic Surgeon. Following the post-op instructions is essential to getting your desired results. The results are immediate and keep improving as the swelling subsides.
