A beautiful tan starts now

The main prey of vacationers returning from warmer climates to working life, of course, is acquired by back-breaking lying on the beach tanning. How to keep a golden skin tone a little longer?

Terms Sun

Of course, to start to care for the skin should be slightly pobronzovevshey the first days in the sun - or the first visits solarium . In addition to the mandatory protection from the sun, every evening irradiated body should be given the "soothing": after a shower with a sponge or a brush (do not be afraid to "erase" tan, dark forms in the deeper layers of the skin), apply the special means "after sun" (perfect if it contains a small amount of cooling components - menthol or cactus extract).

You should not abuse the oil-based products, if you stay in a very hot and humid climates, try to give preference as easy and liquid funds. Excessive "cajoling" of the skin can cause enhanced production of sweat and even acne - but it you want?

The only means of care, which should be abandoned for the duration of sunbathing - scrub, especially coarse (based on the powder from the shell of a walnut or apricot kernel). If you want to intolerable "polish" themselves, for example, knees and elbows, use more humane scrubs - for example, on the basis of oatmeal or a soft polymer particles. The fact is that any scrub still causes skin microtrauma potentially fraught with inflammation, and in terms of solar radiation, bathing in saltwater or simply increased sweating in the heat in an unusual climate, this risk increases many times. Alternative scrub - soft brush with natural bristles, sea sponge (in the opinion dermatologists, the best solution) or polyethylene sponge - the most gentle cleanser on vacation.

Tanned menu

If you're a longtime fan of the Sun, you probably know exactly what to achieve the best results, it is necessary to slightly adjust your diet. The main "zagoratelny" vitamin - beta-carotene . In the summer it is easy to get from fruits and vegetables yellow, orange and dark green.

Besides carotene Sunbathing skin needs animal protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids (the best source - olive, corn and canola oil) and large amounts of calcium. According to Italian experts, in the summer of calcium is best not to get fresh milk and cheese brine grades: mozzarella, cheese, feta. Summing up the recommendations, it appears that a perfect summer dish can be considered a classic Greek salad, served as a garnish to a good steak.

Foods - Sun enemies, include everything that has excess salinity: smoked meat and sausage, fried potatoes, pickled vegetables. Such foods cause on the one hand, dry skin on the most sunbathing areas (arms, shoulders, décolletage), on the other hand, increases the excretion of fat in the face, which is why the tan starts to descend quickly and unevenly.

And finally, the most important condition resistant bronze color on the skin - a sufficient number of water . According to the American dermatologists during a beach holiday adult needs to drink at least four liters of clean water per day. Water not only keeps the mineral balance in the body, it ensures normal communication between all layers of the skin and does not leave us tanned tone early.

Stolen Sun

But, undoubtedly, the most effective means of preserving the Sun is solarium . Today the area offers more than fifty varieties of tanning beds: horizontal, vertical, turbo effect "Sirocco", with special lamps for the face, chest, hands and feet ... There is a solarium, watering your microscopic water droplets, there is a shaky bottom (for achieve the effect of weight loss). In Japan, there were even solarium with a special "antimicrobial" air flow, which is capable of stopping the development of fungal infections and other inflammatory processes of the skin. Look in your area decent solarium, focusing primarily on the originality of its lamps. The newer light, the more intense and thus safer tanning.

AT   solariums   do not neglect the simple rules solarium: hair hide under a special hat, and on the nipples stick reflective circles-Stikine, it is much reduces the likelihood of any tumors in the breast. It is not necessary to go to a tanning salon immediately after the procedure hair removal (especially hair removal), after the lymphatic drainage massage (this causes irregular blood flow in different parts of the body, and there is a risk of "propechsya" unevenly) in the case of any inflammation of the skin, for example, the case of allergic dermatitis.

Regardless of how much you were able to get a tan under the natural sun, the first visit to the solarium should be short - three to five minutes. Only after two or three sessions stay under the lights, you can slowly increase, not moving at the same border in 15 minutes. It is now recognized by dermatologists and oncologists limit values ​​for light-skinned people, and for dark-skinned.

On a note

- Well-formed within 14 days of tan "lasts" for dark skin up to 60 days, on the light - up to 42 - 45 days to almost white - up to 20 days. Naturally, self tanning varying intensity;

- Do not give in to provocations grandmothers insisted that each time after sunbathing you rubbed sour or, God forbid, cologne. From curdled use less than that of a special milk-colored lock and cologne skin can easily ruin forever;

- If you need for any reason to lighten up a tan on a certain area of ​​the skin, do not need to struggle to scrape the skin hard sponge or resort to chemical clarification. Take an hour and a half a compress of nutritious body cream (a cover thickly smeared skin with cling film), and then simply wash the area with soap and water. Repeat the process the next day. Generally, after 2 - 3 treatments skin at the treated part lighter for 2 - 3 tones.

Tanning: Safety

Beautifully tanned in our latitudes, it is difficult, not the climate. Therefore, connoisseurs prefer the perfect tan, mostly solarium. In addition, under the influence of ultraviolet radiation in the solarium actively produce endorphin hormone of joy, and added to the tanned skin even and pleasant emotions. But what about the criticism of this method of beauty - she is also there? Try to understand ...

Solarium should be good

Ultraviolet rays (UVA) tend to penetrate deep into the skin and dehydrate it, as if evaporating moisture. The skin ages faster, her wrinkles. Excess UV light contributes to the development of tumors of various kinds, from moles to melanoma.

When is this happening?

The first reason . The sunroom installed substandard equipment .
Often, solariums, - to save - set lamp b / y, or a long time do not change them. Meanwhile, these lamps have a very limited resource - 540 hours. Having fulfilled this period, the lamp will automatically go into the category of "low-quality equipment." But the problem is how to control a degree of wear is almost impossible.

Attention! For the first time visiting the solarium, make sure that the lamps are replaced in it recently. Keep in mind that under the new tanning lamps should be less than normal for your skin type.

The second reason. Wrong sunbathing.
  If you want to look very tanned, visit solarium   We need at most once a week. For a lighter golden shade residual sunbathing twice a month at the most. But, regardless of the intensity of the sun, is strictly not recommended to stay longer in the solarium 5-7 minutes per session.

What can cause frequent visits to the solarium:

- The formation of pigmentation

- To dehydration face and body skin and premature wrinkles

- Disruption of the menstrual cycle

- To renal dysfunction and, consequently, to edema

Talking about the wrinkles from sun deck - it's not true?

Girls attending solarium often think that they are not as much caution as frightening. This opinion is formed because no one after leaving the solarium is not covered with wrinkles. Indeed, external changes are not immediate. But that does not mean anything. 10-15 years overreliance ultraviolet inevitably affect the skin, and then in 40 years you will look at risk 55. There will be masked bad spots, pores expand, intensify greasiness. Also, viral infections can escalate: herpes, papilloma, warts, etc.

Solarium and acne

At the time, the treatment of acne medicine used UV irradiation. Part of the recreational function, and can perform solarium.   But that principle: tube-exposure should be very soft, does not cause redness of the skin. Only in this case the rays have anti-inflammatory effects.

With intensive irradiation in the solarium may be exactly the opposite result: the skin becomes more greasy, exacerbated empyesis.

Attention! Some cosmetic acne can not tolerate UV exposure. As a result, after tanning, you can feel the burn on the skin and detect the onset of pigmentation. Do not visit a solarium if you pass medical and beauty treatments against skin inflammation.

Can I use a solarium if ...

Sunroom   contraindicated in the following cases:

- Colds, flu or flu.

- After peeling, mesotherapy, surgical treatment. You must wait at least 14 days before starting to use the solarium.

- If the skin is prone to pigmentation, or on the body has a large number of moles.

- In violation of the thyroid gland, mastopathy, myoma, polyps, cysts.

- At the beginning of pregnancy (12 weeks).

If you rank for no contraindications, you can use the solarium with a light heart. The procedure for sunbathing nourishes the skin with vitamin D, through which she priobreatet healthy and beautiful appearance. The main thing is not to abuse the ultraviolet.

Stem cell facelift: Myth or Reality?

In an environment of Plastic Surgeons ongoing debate about whether it is possible to use stem cells for a facelift. Opinion on this subject were divided.

American Eva Campbell Morales noticed dramatic age-related changes skin after 40 - there were wrinkles and bad wrinkles.

But at what point is there are stem cells - that's the million dollar question. More specifically on the $ 5000 - $ 10,000 in clinics estimate that this procedure. And the answer depends on the specialist to whom you refer.

"I am absolutely convinced that 90% of doctors who promise you a facelift stem cells, just take your fat, process it in a centrifuge, and then inject under the skin, - says the plastic surgeon from Illinois Dr. Carol Gutowski. - It is common transplant of fat, which is used in medicine for decades. Now, in the name was added, the term "stem cells" because it stirs per consumer. Yes, there fat stem cells, but it absolutely does not mean anything. "

"I have been using stem cells in cosmetic surgery more than 10 years - objection Nathan Newman. - I develop a special procedure in which I identify additional stem cells from collagen, and then add them into fat, which I stick to patients. Juvenile gloss leather It provides a growth factor, which is given stem cells. "

However, none of these points of view does not yet have a solid scientific basis. So patients have to trust your own heart. ( READ MORE )

Every fifth threatening complications after abdominoplasty

Plastic surgery, causing changes in the contours of the body, can lead to desirable outcomes for patients, but they can also cause dangerous consequences. For example, every fifth postoperative abdominoplasty ends complications as found by researchers from the University of Texas.

Abdominoplasty

Operations to change the contours of the body most often held after patients get rid of large amounts of excess weight. In such cases on the body are the folds of skin that must be removed. However, although the Abdominoplasty   and gives the patient the body of his dreams, it can cause serious postoperative complications Have been wound on the body after such surgery to heal very long, which leads to the penetration of body infections.

And the largest patient was initially, the worse it can be the consequences of such complications as established American researchers. They carefully observed the health of patients who passed through abdominoplasty   and "total body lift" - they lost tens of kilograms overweight and faced with the problem of excess skin.

Coefficient postoperative complications   from 450 patients become participants in the study amounted to as much as 20%, that is actually a such complications faced by one in five. Twice danger grew in those who lost weight by 25 kg or more, well, getting rid of excess weight amounting to more than 45 kg increased the risk of postoperative complications abdominoplasty several times. These same patients often observed postoperative wound dehiscence, in which burst imposed during Operation seams.

As authors of the study, such a high percentage complications associated with a sharp change of power in such patients, as well as changes in their skin. (READ MORE)

Aspirin does more harm than good

Daily aspirin can cause health more harm than good, according to experts from the British University of Warwick. They urge doctors advise patients to stop such prevention.

aspirin

Hundreds of thousands of people who regularly take aspirin to protect themselves in such a way from the risk of heart disease and strokes. Many scientific studies have shown that aspirin   It allows to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by 10%. Some studies go even further and claim that aspirin protects humans also from rectal cancer.

However, regular aspirin   in some cases, lead to negative health effects, such as internal bleeding and hemorrhagic stroke, that is, those that are caused by bursting, rather than blocked blood vessels of the brain. Experts from the University of Warwick have analyzed all the existing evidence of the benefits and harms of aspirin, and came to the conclusion that human health will be better not to take medication.

Yes, aspirin actually 10-15% reduces the risk of strokes, heart attacks and other heart diseases. But his daily intake of the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding increases by as much as 37%, hemorrhagic stroke by 32-38%, which increases the mortality from all these ills on the 68-117 and 8-10 per 100 000 patients, respectively.

"Between the benefits and harms of daily aspirin a very fine line, - says study author Professor Eileen Clark. - We have to be very careful. We should not prescribe aspirin, all in a row without an accurate understanding of the negative effects that may occur during daily use." (READ MORE)

Aspirin in small doses protects against cancer

Even small regular doses of aspirin reduces the risk of cancer in the long term. That is the conclusion reached by researchers.

The debate about the benefits and dangers of everyday preventive aspirin   It has been going on for a long time. Scientists from Oxford have completed quite a long time for a study that will be one more argument in favor of the supporters of the regular intake of one of the most popular remedies for headache and temperature.

Thus, it became clear that reception Aspirin   - In small doses - in the long term may reduce the risk of colon cancer by 20% and 35% of stomach. A study conducted by Professor Peter Rothwell of Oxford, which for many years are recommended for aspirin   patients who have had mini-strokes. Rothwell decided to check whether there have this medication when taken regularly, and other positive effects.

"Back in the 1970s there was an information that aspirin can affect the growth of some species cancer   in the laboratory and in animals - said the professor. - But the effect of the animals not necessarily have to be repeated in humans. We would like to clarify this issue. "

For the influence of aspirin on the person observed by scientists from Oxford, London, Edinburgh and Japan. They studied data from studies conducted in the 1980s and 1990s, paying special attention to those of their members who are sick cancer . Initially, managed to prove the positive impact of the drug in preventing   cancer   intestinal and stomach. And now scientists are looking for evidence of drugs and the development of other types of tumors.

Advocates of the drug argue that the regular aspirin It prevents heart attacks and strokes. Opponents argue that the positive effect in this regard is extremely insignificant, and it completely negates the risk of stomach bleeding.

Aspirin pacify heart attacks and depression

Does daily aspirin to save your life? Until now, this medicine is extolled by many as a real panacea.

Aspirin is the most popular drug in the world, every year people drink 100 billion (!) Of its tablets. Aspirin taken the legendary conqueror of Captain Scott of the Antarctic and reached the top of Everest by Edmund Hillary, the drug drunk American astronauts roamed the lunar surface. And today it is available in any home medicine cabinet or hiking.

Most of the 20 century, aspirin relieves pain, temperature, and attacks of rheumatic fever. But many people do not rush to take medicine because of its side effects like bowel irritation and ulceration in the stomach. Still, aspirin can protect us from all ills? Here's what the experts say.

Aspirin against cancer

Several studies have shown that long-term aspirin   It reduces the risk of certain cancers. To achieve this effect, it requires at least five years of daily use, but the more you drink the drug, the lower the danger. 25 years on aspirin - the best protection. But drink it longer dangerous because of the risk of internal bleeding. Evidence of the effectiveness of aspirin in the prevention of breast cancer has been found.

Aspirin against depression

Some scientists believe that inflammation and depression   linked, since some patients with depression have found elevated levels of blood cytokines that occur in response to inflammation. Theoretically, therefore, aspirin can be used for the prevention of depression, although it is specifically its impact is not scientifically proven.

Aspirin against heart disease

Aspirin   It reduces the likelihood of cardiovascular disease in people at risk. As for its impact on patients, not in this group, it has not been fully established.

Aspirin against dementia

There is sufficient scientific evidence to seriously consider the introduction of aspirin prophylaxis of Alzheimer's disease and similar dementias, including vascular, which are caused by a stroke.

Proved: bread protects us from cancer

Eating brown bread or whole grain cereal products three times a day reduces the risk of developing bowel cancer by 20%, as it became known in the course of a large-scale study. But from legumes no preventive benefit was found.

Until recently it was believed that the use of legumes (beans, peas, lentils, peanuts) or a plurality of fruits and vegetables may protect against Bowel Cancer . However, British scientists from Imperial College London and the University of Leeds, examined data from previous studies, affecting two million people. They found a significant association between cereals and prevention of colon cancer, which is the third most common in the UK.

At each increase in the daily consumption of 10 grams of fiber in the risk of disease   bowel cancer It was reduced by 10%. Since the 1960s, the prevailing view in medicine that the fibers contribute to the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, protecting people from bowel cancer. But there was no scientific studies that support this view.

British experts have used the findings of 25 studies. It was found that three servings of whole (90 g) in the daily diet reduce the risk of morbidity bowel cancer   20%. These studies are published in the journal British Medical Journal. But convincing evidence of preventive benefit of legumes, as well as a large number of fruits or vegetables in the prevention of colon cancer scientists could not be found.

Silent strokes erase memory

One in four older people suffering from memory loss, in fact, a victim of the so-called silent stroke. This conclusion was American scientists from the Institute for the Study Taubovskogo Alzheimer's disease and brain aging, as well as the Medical Center at Columbia University.

Researchers examined the health of 658 people from 65 years and older Memory loss Who have not had diagnosed dementia. All of them went through the brain MRI. Then they expect tests, studying memory, vocabulary, speed of information processing and visual perception. It was found that 174 people were silent strokes - small areas of dead cells in the brain.

The study is published in the journal "Neurology." It is reported that the victims with silent strokes on memory tests coped much worse than those who have not been fixed brain damage. This pattern did not depend on the size of the hippocampus - the memory center in the brain.

"Given the fact that severe illnesses such as Alzheimer's disease and other dementias diagnosed solely on the basis of Memory loss Our results can be used as a basis for further studies on the new and more reliable symptoms of these diseases, as well as the development of new methods of prevention, - said in a statement the scientists. - Since silent strokes and the volume of the hippocampus in different ways have been linked to memory loss in our study, the results suggest that the prevention of stroke will be a reliable way to prevent memory problems. "

In other words, based on the set of symptoms such as memory loss , Diagnosis of dementia may not always be true, as scientists believe. And someone mistakenly thought to be a victim of Alzheimer's disease, although in fact he had only just become a victim of silent stroke.

Pop music helps restore memory

Listening to pop music can help the victims of a severe brain injury to recover lost memories. That is the conclusion reached by researchers from Australia and France.

recovery of memory

Scientists from the University of Newcastle (Australia) and the University of Lille (France) found that victims brain injury   when listening to what some popular songs recall approximately the same number of events of his life as completely healthy people. Only it is necessary that these songs had some relation to the past patients, that is, they were familiar with.

Most memories are thus unable to recover, refer to some people or a single person, and most of them are positive. This is the first scientific study of the power of music in the process   memory recovery   in people with Brain injuries . Previously, scientists have studied the effects of music on memory of healthy people, as well as victims of dementia.

Total participated in the experiment 5 people with long-term brain injury. Playlist for them is drawn up after consultation with the family and friends of patients. In addition, scientists also collected a similar number for a group of healthy people to compare the results. It turned out that pop music activates roughly the same number of positive memories, which makes it an effective tool memory recovery   and rehabilitation of victims of brain injuries.

Scientists are going to conduct additional studies to "fully understand the hidden mechanism that explains the unique effect of music on memory." (READ MORE)

Want to live long? Give up bad habits

Since the main causes of cancer, scientists believe smoking, alcohol abuse and poor diet. This lifestyle leads to cancer in 40% of cases.

A leading risk factor, scientists reasonably believe smoking is because, according to statistics, that smoking is a cause of cancer in 23% of male patients and 15, 6% of women.

The second death factor in men is diet, which is vital to increase the amount of fruits and vegetables consumed. In women, the leading positions are overweight.

The authors of a large-scale study to date - British scientists from the Center for Cancer Research, say that 40% of all cancers are the consequences of an unhealthy lifestyle, and they can be avoided.

According to scientists, to protect against cancer, men need to eat more fruits and vegetables, stop smoking and reduce the amount of alcohol consumed. Women researchers also advised to stop smoking and to monitor their own weight.

Lipofilling: your breast augmentation with fat

Lipofilinga idea - use your own fat for breast augmentation patients - is not new. But 90 years after the general distribution of implants, it has been criticized by doctors of the American Association of Plastic Surgeons, who expressed doubts about the suitability of own fat for breast augmentation. Indeed, adipose tissue moved from the area of ​​the abdomen, buttocks or thighs do not always take root in the new location.

Case history

American doctors then warned that, in the event of the death of the fat cells at the injection site may occur deposition of calcium salts, which later will interfere with the early diagnosis of breast cancer. It is possible that such a conclusion was made under pressure from the manufacturers of the implants. Or maybe the result of the implantation of silicone prostheses are simply more profitable and predictable?

Now, twenty years later, the American Association of Plastic Surgeons reviewed the results of the discussions and considered that Lipofilling   as a method of Breast Augmentation   safe enough. Subcutaneous adipose tissue - a great natural filler. Its only drawback is that some of the transplanted fat completely resorbed in the body, resulting in the need to repeat the procedure lipofilinga or require the use of other fillers.

However, the problem of improving the survival rate of transplanted fat cells are gradually being solved. Today it is the direction of development of aesthetic surgery is considered one of the most promising. Leading plastic surgeons and clinics in different countries conduct research and practical experiments, trying to solve the problem of survival of fat cells and improve the methodology lipofilinga   chest. So famous American surgeon Dr. Khouri (Khouri) introduced the American Society of Plastic Surgeons with the data of its long-term research on the use of adipose tissue as an alternative to breast implants. His study involved 50 women aged 17 to 63 years. On average, patients caught 85% of the transplanted fat tissue, and neither one of them did not reveal any degradation of mammograms.

Lipofilling (lipomodelirovanie) breast in Moscow

One of the most prominent Russian experts in the field of breast surgery, chief physician of the Moscow clinic, MD Ilya Sergeev - does not share the belief of Dr. Khouri and his supporters that the transplant of their own fat cells - the only correct way Breast Augmentation . But he is convinced that this is a good alternative for patients who experience persistent prejudice against implants and do not want to have anything foreign in your body.

One of the patients of the Center Dr.Plastic - 32-year-old Muscovite Anastasia M. chose this method Breast Augmentation . "I do not need a large chest. I wanted to increase it by only 1-2, but so that it was perfectly natural part of my body, - she said. - I do not want to have anything artificial inside."

Last fall was Anastasia transplantation own fat taken from the outside of the thighs. Such lipomodelirovanie   It is carried out in two stages. First place is taken from the selected fat cells. It is important to get it alive, not injured cells. It depends on how well they take root. In the center of Dr.Plastic this problem is solved by the method of water-jet liposuction Body Jet, which allows you to gently separate the fat cells without destroying them. Fat cells are collected into a container without any impurities. It is important that the device Body Jet is not only separates the cells without damaging them, but also gives the surgeon of clean and are ready for transplanting. This increases the survival rate of the cells, as the fat is rapidly oxidized in air and, if additional cleaning, loses viability.

After 3 months, the patient Dr. M. Anastasia Sergeeva safely caught more than 75% of the transplanted fat tissue. Was it reached the desired size of 1 5. If you decide to Anastasia   enlarge breasts   another 1-2 size, it will be able to carry out this procedure again, but as long as she does not plan because quite happy with the result.

Subsequently, the volume of the breast will continue, but will depend on the condition of the body: chest rise (if the patient recovers) or "lose weight" (if she lost weight), as would happen with this breast without undergoing surgery.

Possible complications lipomodelirovaniya

If the procedure for the preparation of fat cells is not perfect or transplanted at once too much fat, much of the transplanted fat cells will die, which can lead to complications. Dr. Sergeyev warned: "It is not too difficult to take the patient to fill them fat and chest. Immediately after surgery, it will look great, but if the procedure   lipofilinga   mismanaged and after 1-2 months the fat does not take root, they can form cysts, and scar seals (connective) tissue. "

In recent years, transplantation of fat is mainly used in reconstructive surgeries after mastectomy. "Methods of breast augmentation with autologous fat is thinner and is not as predictable as the technology to work with implants. But it is natural breast, its own tissue - says a leading surgeon, professor of People's Friendship University, Dr. Svetlana Gagarin. - These operations should be taken seriously. I saw a lot of the results of reconstructive surgery using autologous fat injections made after cancer surgery, to argue that the complications associated with the improper transfer of adipose tissue - is a real problem, sometimes leading to infection and worsens the prognosis of recovery of these patients. "

Stem cells for breast augmentation - Myth or Reality?

In the United States, Britain, Italy, Germany every year is growing advertising campaign breast augmentation fat tissue .  Some doctors have reported that the efficiency of this technique is entirely associated with the use of stem cells and their subsequent injections .  They claim that due to the injection of a mixture of fatty tissue and stem cell breast grows more .  Director of Investor Relations Cytori Therapeutics said that the system developed by «Celution 800" can increase the survival rate of the cells 2 times, such research is also being conducted in Italy, Japan and Korea .  Although these systems do not yet have FDA approval in the United States or similar services in other countries, this does not stop these surgeons Todd Malan .  On its website, Dr. Malan has openly stated that the first expert who applied the stem cells for breast augmentation .  His opponent, another American expert - Dr. Coleman - Do not use the stem cells, but it has dozens of successful transplants fat .  For example, in 1998 one of his patients, Linde Fransipeyn was increased breast .

Fat transplantation was successful and, even now, twenty years after the operation, she said that her breast is like a girl. Among the Russian experts has both ardent supporters of stem cells, as well as ardent opponents of these techniques, which speak about the danger and unpredictability of the application is not yet fully proven technology. Russian surgeons practice are optimistic about the prospects of using stem cells, but most of them have refrained from their practical use. "We follow with interest the research on stem cells, and are waiting for their much - says Dr. Sergeyev. - But we can not use the stem cells in their daily practice, because they do not consider it possible for her to try any method to the patient, do not pass the respective licensing and are not endorsed by major organizations such as the FDA ».

HOCH nightmare at random

Deviated septum occurs more than 90 percent of the people living on Earth, and many of them are not even aware of the presence of this defect ...

Strictly speaking, a perfectly flat septum does not exist in principle. This is flexible plate that separates the nasal cavity of the left and right halves, since infancy suffers from some effect from the outside. As a result there are small curvature of the nasal septum And sometimes it formed outgrowths (spikes). It may also happen that the nasal septum is deformed even due to injury, but in itself. For example, during adolescence bow hryaschik can start to grow too fast, outpacing the growth of the facial skeleton - because of this forced bending formed partitions.

I must say that many people live with the "wrong" nasal septum lifetime without experiencing any discomfort, and even knowing that the nose is something wrong. However, there are times when deformed nasal cartilage causes ailments, seriously complicating the existence of man.

Possible consequences of the curvature of the nasal septum

1. Difficulty in nasal breathing - from mild to extreme, leading to a complete absence of breathing. When a unilateral violation of curvature of nasal breathing to be celebrated by the curvature of the corresponding half of the nose ..

2. Snoring.

3. Chronic sinusitis (sinusitis, sinusitis, etmoidit, sphenoiditis). Due to the curvature of the walls is broken ventilation of the paranasal sinuses, which leads to the development of sinusitis up to its chronic form.

4. Changes in the actual shape of the nose, appearance.

5. Nasal bleeding.

6. Impairment of hearing. Deviated septum prevents air to pass through the nasal cavity and nasopharynx into the lower respiratory tract. In some cases, this leads to deterioration of ventilation of the tympanic cavity. There is a condition that Otorhinolaryngologists called "tubo-otitis," or "evstahiit."

7. Frequent colds, which are complicated by sinusitis (eg, sinusitis), otitis.

Is not it time to see a doctor?

Experts say that there are signs by which one can understand how serious things are a problem in the nose. Think and answer ...

- At any time of the year you usually arises runny nose? Is it regular?

- Do you feel any discomfort in addition to the common cold?

- There you have pain in the face, particularly the nose?

- If your runny nose is accompanied by high fever?

- Hard for you to breathe at night?

If at least 2 questions you have answered "yes", then it is an alarming sign: trip to the doctor is better not to delay. This is probably due to the curvature of the nasal septum, or have polyps in the nasal passages.

Treatment of the nasal septum

1. In the home environment is necessary to monitor the humidity in the rooms do nasal lavage saline using a syringe. In addition, it is better to exclude from their diet foods that may contain potential allergens: chocolate, fish products with a large number of additives and preservatives.

Do not have a habit of blowing his nose strongly, it is very harmful. Use special solutions that soften congestion in the nasal passages.

2. In order to solve the problems may require surgery   - Under local or general anesthesia. If the doctor does everything correctly, then there should be no swelling of the nose, after 3-4 hours it is already possible to walk freely. True for some time will still have to visit the ENT doctor, do plugging the nasal passages and take prescribed medications.

3. In addition to surgery   now found such treatments as endoscopy, laser therapy, rhinoseptoplasty.

Endoscopic septoplasty aims not to remove and straighten the curved portions of the nasal septum. The doctor inserts an endoscope into the nose - a thin tube with a diameter of 3-4 mm, which is located inside the micro camera, the feed surgeon at the computer screen picture of the internal nose.

If necessary, in the nasal cartilage made special notches. In some cases, the most deformed areas of the nasal septum are removed, softened, thinner special device - Crusher, remodeled and returned to its original place. Sometimes, along with other endoplastikoy performed surgery on the nose: in the paranasal sinuses, nasal turbinates and others. Then inserted into the nose pads that special doctor removes the second day after surgery.

Back to work after endoplastiki can be in two weeks. During the first month after surgery forbidden to exercise. That is characteristic: good to breathe nose begins not immediately but only after a few weeks, during this time should get swelling of the nasal mucosa.

4. Laser correction of nasal septum is not for everyone. This procedure is a surgery during which the surgeon, acting on a curved laser cartilage, trying to straighten it. The risk is that the long-term results of such a "rectification" is difficult to predict. Therefore, in highly deviated nasal septum is better to replace the traditional laser correction on the correction of nasal septum surgery.

Radiofrequency liposuction RFAL - technology of the future

Liposuction for many people it becomes almost the only opportunity to return to his body aesthetic, attractive appearance. In the XXI century the problem of obesity has become more relevant than ever before. Millions of people suffer from overweight. And it's not only in the moral experience. Excess weight leads to the breakdown of the body's hormonal levels, an increase in cholesterol, not to mention the stress on the joints and spine.

Not surprisingly, one of the most common aesthetic operations over the past few years has been Liposuction . This procedure is for a few moments eliminates the hated excess weight. No depression of the diets and terrible fatigue from the grueling workouts!

During the development of cosmetic surgery liposuction procedure   He went his way, create new technologies, improved hardware techniques.

The first method Liposuction   It is considered to be dry technique (SOL) . Its distinguishing feature is that the procedure took place without an anesthetic solution, the patient needed general anesthesia, there was a large loss of blood. Yes, and guaranteed results such liposuction did not give in many cases require a repeat procedure.

Following this technique appeared Wet / supervlazhnaya / edematous Appliances . The problem area is administered vasoconstrictor drugs (epinephrine), saline solution, anesthetics. This provides improved processes aspiration (suction) of fat tissue, decrease blood loss.

Ultrasonoassotsiorovannaya Liposuction   (UAL) It was carried out using ultrasonic energy. The procedure is less blood loss, relatively easy removal of fat and reduced trauma to the skin. However, this technique does not provide a tightening of the skin after liposuction. After the procedure, it was possible to observe sagging skin graft.

Power assisted liposuction (PAL) - A mechanical removal of adipose tissue using a hollow tube with a blunt end (cannula). The device with a tube performs operative movement back and forth, ensuring fast aspiration. However, this method also does not provide adequate reduction of dermal tissue does not get rid of sagging.

Laser-assisted liposuction (LAL)   - Minus the laser liposuction procedure is lengthy and the inability to ensure uniform heating of large surfaces. In the body is introduced a small diameter optical fiber emits laser energy that is gradually heated adipose tissue, breaking down fat cells into their constituent fatty acids, which are then absorbed by the body. The procedure is almost bloodless, but it is very inconvenient for liposuction of large areas such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks. But this is the most problematic area!

Summing up all the described techniques, we can say that none of them is not an ideal way to correction and body contouring. It seems that combine safety, efficiency and long-lasting results is impossible. But science does not stand still, and one of the latest developments scientists is Radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) .

Liposuction RFAL   It based on the action of radio frequency energy. System BodyTite Patented by an Israeli company Invasix Ltd, operates using two electrodes - one external, the other internal. The inner electrode is placed into the fatty tissue (an entry point is not large - 2, 5 3, 7 mm in diameter, depending on the nozzle and the treatment zone) and begins to be heated by radiation directional RF current to an external electrode. The internal electrode serves as the traditional analog and the cannula is used for simultaneous aspiration.

The principal difference of the system BodyTite   is the fact that throughout the procedure of liposuction monitors skin temperature. System BodiTayt It controls the power supplied energy to provide uniform heating throughout the treated area. If the temperature exceeds a predetermined rate, the device automatically turns off the flow of energy. This eliminates the possibility of overheating the skin.

In addition to splitting fat system   Body Tight It provides an effective tightening of the skin. According to the results of clinical studies of skin tissue possible reduction to 60% (for reference: laser liposuction allows only up to 17%). This solves one of the major problems of liposuction: flabby skin after the procedure. The unique technology of the Israeli company Invasix Ltd (Israel) has made available the liposuction procedure to people who are contraindicated for conventional liposuction.

In addition, the procedure is very fast and reduces all unpleasant sensations inherent in traditional methods, at no. Patients are happy with the result and the process itself RFAL. Pain low, minimum rehabilitation period, the patient goes home the day of surgery. System BodyTite (Israel) can help not only those who need to remove body fat, but also to those who want to adjust the contours of the figure flabby.

Technology RFAL - Beauty is a new generation, a technique that allows us to achieve results previously unavailable:

• fast splitting large amounts of adipose tissue;
  
  
• tightening of the skin, formation of precise contours of the body;
  
  
• the absence of strong pain and a long recovery period.

Simultaneous aspiration procedure, the minimum time

Breast Augmentation: an interview with Eldar Kahramanova

The work of a plastic surgeon Eldar Kahramanova was recognized as the best in September 2010 on the basis of open voting readers of "Beauty and Health". Before you - an interview with the winner.

- I finished third medical school in 2001. Then he passed residency and post-graduate studies. He defended his PhD. Plastic surgery   always interested me more than other areas of medicine. As a student, I often watched the plastic surgeries. I had a such "exclusive" opportunity, because my father - plastic surgeon . So, my career was predetermined. Now I work in the clinic Dr. Plastic.

Breast plastic surgery - one of the most popular operations. This operation is your favorite?

Yes, one of the most beloved. The female breast is something special, exciting, feminine silhouette that defines. Often, this operation is not simply corrects appearance, and changes the attitude to life, liberating. It's nice to see a woman transformed and externally and internally.

Many surgeons consider breast augmentation the most technologically and effectively. How do you feel about that?

I think I would agree with that. The outcome of this operation depends on the surgeon's skill and the quality of the implants, and precision of mathematical calculations. The clinic Dr. Plastic has developed a unique method of 3D-FORM, which helps calculate the parameters of the operation and choose the implants and to show patients the real results of future operations.

As for the spectacular, it is certainly Breast Enlargement   It can be called the most spectacular operation, since the result is visible immediately, already on the operating table.

Manufacturers of modern implants for breast augmentation gives a lifetime warranty on its products. Does this mean that the second operation is not required?

Indeed, the best manufacturers of breast implants give a lifetime warranty on its products. The quality of these implants has been tested and verified over decades of practice. A good example - Natrelle implants with whom I work. They do not need to be replaced. Even in case of childbirth and lactation, when the breast is still losing its shape, ptosis occurs with endoprostheses nothing happens and their location is not changed. In the vast majority of cases it is sufficient to correct an already installed implants (mastopexy).

Some surgeons prefer any one brand of implants, considering them the best. What are your priorities?

As every surgeon, I have a "favorite" brand implants, those that I trust. I had to work with many manufacturers, and best of all proven Natrelle implants produced by the American corporation Allergan. I would single out three main advantages of this brand.
Firstly, formed around a soft elastic capsule which is firmly grows into the implant, which ensures its reliable fixation, resulting in significantly reducing the risk of capsular contracture and possible dislocation of anatomical prosthesis.
Secondly, I am absolutely certain that no change to the shell, or filled with implants does not happen, no matter how much time has passed since the operation.
Thirdly, a large variety of sizes and shapes of products company Allergan ensures selection prostheses for patients with any anatomical features.

The work, which won the contest

Age of the patient:   26 years Initial problem:   hypoplasia of the breast, chest about the size of the first. The desire of the patient: increase breast size up to 2.5, to fill the upper pole. Actions surgeon : It was chosen implants round shape of the company McGhan TSM255 and installed under the pectoralis major muscle. Access through the lower edge of the areola. The result of the operation : Get the size of about 2.5. Chest symmetric implant not palpable. Visually lush chest, looks natural.
