How to Minimize Pores with Laser Treatment?

August 1, 2013 by Avinav Leave a Comment

Are you struggling to get by with everyday activities with the fear that people may notice your large pores? For some people, this is a cosmetic issue worth addressing, as it could lead to other skin conditions in the future; primarily acne. When you have large pores, it makes it easier for infections, bacterium and makeup particles to seep into your skin. Once particles get beneath your primary skin layer, it may or may not cause skin reactions. Large pores are essentially openings on your skin, which may look like depth spots. The cause of large pores is still unknown, but much of it has been linked to DNA, genetics, exposure to the sun and increased bodily oil production.

A laser system is used to minimize large pores, as incisions do not help at all. Part of the treatment is done manually as well, through a process known as resurfacing. Prior to the treatment, you would be asked to completely wash down your face with warm water. When you face has been dried, a numbing cream would be applied about an hour before the procedure. The one hour wait time is to ensure that your skin and its pores absorb the contents of the cream. After an hour of waiting, the cream would have set well into your skin, so it is removed and laser treatment will begin. In most cases, the cosmetic procedure for treating large pores only takes about fifteen minutes.

The recovery period is only a few hours, as there is no real pain involved. You can get back to your everyday dealings right after treatment. However, even after your treatment; you will still not have all the sensation back on your face as it takes about an hour more to completely lose its effectiveness. Since a laser treatment was used on your skin, it may show a little redness or swelling, but it usually disappears after two to four days. During this time, the doctor may give you a prescription medication to ease the swelling and redness on your skin. One thing you need to remember is that makeup and lotions should be avoided for a few hours after treatment!

Through various sessions that are spaced out every two to four weeks, you would notice a change in the size of your pores. If you had wrinkles or lines on your face, this laser surgery treatment would have made it better as well. Since the laser beam imposes heat on your skin, it allows the sebum glands to become fully lose and tight again. When this happens, your skin would be less likely to show signs of aging. Going to the appointment sessions after your laser treatment is important, as this is how you will minimize your pores. Depending on the extent of the treatment, your costs will vary as well, so that is something you should definitely consider looking into!

Can I fight hair loss?

October 19, 2012 by Avinav 1 Comment

If you are losing your hair do not give up hope. There are many ways you can fight it. First of all stop worrying. Stress is a major factor in hair loss, so the more you worry, the more your  loose your hair. Solution for hair loss ranges from surgery to just having a better diet.

Take hair fiber powder for example:

If your hair has just started thinning than this is just the solution for you. This powder is made specially to attach itself to your existing hair, giving the impression that it is fuller and thicker. This is not a permanent solution, it is meant as a temporary filler until the medication you are taking (Rogaine, Propencia) kicks in. It is quite affordable, prices start at twenty dollars. And the risk for side effects is minimal.

Propencia and Rogaine. These are very good solutions. If you are young and are being plagued by male or female pattern baldness this is the solution for you. These medications are approved by the FDA in the United States of America. Depending on where you live maybe you will need a prescription to buy Propencia. They can be taken individually but they work best in a combo.

If you have been taking them for a few months and they do seem to be working do not worry. It may take about 6 months for this medication to kick in so persevere. The thing with pattern baldness is that timing can save your scalp. The earlier you start treatment, the bigger the chance for it to work.

Surgical Options:
You can choose this option if all others fail and if you can afford it. It can be done by transplanting hair from other areas of your body like your back. Another way is by reducing the scalp. The doctor will remove the bald area from your scalp and stich the remaining areas together.

But please be careful when choosing this option. Do your homework. Inform yourself about the risk and always go to a good doctor. After the said surgery it is recommended to take Propencia to maintain the hair and not let it die off.

A very impressive type of hair transplant is that of micrografts. It is a very delicate procedure where individual hairs are taken and transplanted onto the balding scalp. This method however, is slow and will take many sessions so I repeat: choose your doctor carefully! Not only is it time consuming but it is also expensive ranging from 10 to 20 thousand dollars.

Wigs and Hair pieces:
This option I would not recommend personally. It is a time-honored tradition for balding men to wear wigs. But the wig degrades over time, does not look natural and if discovered it is a great source of shame for many people.

In conclusion there are many ways to fight baldness but one method out of all of them is most effective and its dirt cheap. Do not lose your confidence along with your hair.

Why am I Losing my Hair?

October 7, 2012 by Avinav Leave a Comment

We all fear hair loss. But why do we fear it? It is a normal part of the human life cycle and it is still one of the most feared things that can happen to you. Some people even prefer getting a dangerous disease than actually losing their hair.

The short answer is that nobody wants to look unattractive. I know it is not fair that other people get to keep their hair and you must lose yours but we must all play the hand that we are dealt. First of all do not panic. Not all types of hair loss are permanent, and the ones that are permanent can be delayed by even 10-15 years. So why does our body shed our scalp hair? To understand this we must go through the growth cycle.

Why am I Losing my Hair
Why am I Losing my Hair

There are 3 phases in the life cycle of the human hair: The first phase (anagen) is the most active phase where the hair actually grows in length. The second phase (catagen) is the phase where the hair starts to weaken and get thinner. And the third phase is the telogen phase that is a resting period for the hair.

As I previously said not all hair loss is permanent. It is perfectly normal to lose about 100-150 hairs a day. Do not panic if your hair is shedding .It is also normal on the course of a life time for your hair to get progressively thinner. If you are losing more than 150 hairs a day, that is a reason to worry. The causes can range from head fungus, bad diet, stress, menopause, thyroid disease, iron deficiency, genetic etc… For all the other causes there is a way to repair the hair loss. Avoiding fatty foods and keeping yourself hydrated and healthy can save your scalp.

The most feared of these causes is the genetic one. A common misconception is that if your father is bald, you will be bald to. That is actually not true. The gene responsible for male pattern baldness is transmitted by your mother….so if you are losing your hair stop blaming your father. However, being said that, men whose fathers had experienced hair loss are twice more likely to experience hair loss themselves, regardless of the mother’s side of the family.

But why would this gene survive in us? Evolution is known for facilitating survival not impeding it? Well, it is speculated that it is a built-in anti-adultery mechanism. The way it works is: You keep your hair for long enough to have children (early or mid-20’s) and then this gene kicks in. It is making you less appealing to the opposite sex and limits your sexual options, thereby assuring that you stay with your partner and help raise the kids. That is why we still have this gene; it has survival benefit for our children.

This is just a short background to make you understand why this is happening to you, to see that it is perfectly normal and make no mistake there are ways to fight it

If you have either dark or black complexion, you might feel the need to protect your skin from the sun exposure. Whether you are using dark skin care, African American skin care, Asian skin care, or other ethnic skin care products, you will usually find a sun protection cream in any of those treatments.

When your skin is prone to acne, sun exposure can be damaging and cause acne aggravation. Further, it can cause acne black spots and other skin discolorations. For people with black acne, which is acne occurring on dark to black skin, excessive sun exposure can cause post inflammatory hyper pigmentation, which is the darkening of the skin in areas of acne inflammation. Additionally, the risk of acne scarring will also be increased.
