Important tips on dermal filler selection: Reversible if problematic



There is no one in this world who can promise you that the injection material and the injection technique will be the perfect one every time you undergo any procedure. You would like to know that when somethings goes wrong, your doctor would be happy to assist you with the correction without having to go through the knife.


  Permanent lip filler

Patient : Doc, i don’t like my lips, it’s getting bigger over time.
Doctor : Oh dear, you are the one in a million to have this reaction. I will schedule you for a lips filler removal operation. The cost is USD 20000, a discounted price.
Patient  : Why is the correction so much more expensive then the filler, you charged me USD 2000 2 years back?
Doctor  : ... ...


Many people fall trap into being prey of permanent / semi permanent filler. The injector may sell you the idea that permanent filler lasts longer and hence you do not need to undergo repeated injections. The fact is, human ages with time. No matter how permanent a filler is, volume loss is ongoing and there will be constant need for further volume replacement. Even after permanent filler injection, one would still require future volume touch up from time to time. So with and without permanent filler injections, one would still require the top up treatment. The apparent saving is not there.  

But what you were not told was the fact that once the permanent filler is injected into your body, your body will not have any mechanism to dissolve it. The permanent filler ended up staying in the body for the rest of one’s life. To remove it, one will have to seek the help of a plastic surgeon to remove it surgically. The process of filler removal is a tedious job and even in the best hands, the fillers may not be completely removed in toto. 

The other risk is, permanent filler is being recognized as foreign body and in some patients, it attracts inflammation. Chronic inflammation forms granulation tissues or scar tissue which increases the actual “volume” of the fillers over time. One may find the areas treated with permanent filler growing over time and the 
treated area may disfigure.  To rectify this problem, surgery, will be required.

新闻:隆鼻毁容



中国报,光明日报昨日的头条。
有很多类似案件的受害者,不过肯挺身而出报案让社会醒觉关注的只是很少数。
虽然说,想要变得更美更好是正常人的需求,不过也是要照顾本身的安全与健康。
寻找合格的注射者(有经验的医生,知道哪里是安全注射点,哪里是红灯区),在一个有医疗设备的地方接受疗程(药物设备俱全),万一发生后遗症(意外总是会发生的)也可以立刻对症下药,把伤害减到最低。
不然付了钱,反而受罪,而且伤害是永久性的,得不偿失,反而伤痛伴随一辈子。

护肤品的渗透性



在寻找有效果的护肤产品中,其中一个重要的因素就是产品的渗透性。
渗透性的强弱,决定着有多少的营养和水分可以让皮肤内的细胞吸收;即便是纯天然成分的护肤品,渗透性的强弱决定着效果的大小。

人体细胞组织的成分大部分是水分,其后是蛋白质,脂质,和少量的糖类和矿物质电解质等。
如果护肤品不具有水溶性,就无法与皮肤内的水分相容,当然也无法让细胞完全吸收。
如果护肤品不具有脂溶性,皮肤表层的油脂层也无法通过,当然也不会带来好的效果了。

当然,选择护肤品,除了渗透性强,水溶性高,脂溶性高,安全性也不可忘记。
