Lasik surgeon is an ophthalmologist who performs LASIK; Laser assisted in situ Keratomileusis, basically to correct conditions like hyperopia, myopia and astigmatism thereby reducing the dependency on glasses and contact lens.

Before you decide to go for a Lasik for your eye problem, it is advisable to consult a Lasik surgeon. There are a lot of advertisements being given by refractive surgery centers quoting different prices and procedures. Do not let the lesser price for the procedure alone influence your decision. Take the advice from your own optometrist and also browse through the web sites and yellow pages before you choose a Lasik surgeon, who is associated with academic medical centers or who is experienced or comfortable with latest procedures and technology.

Lasik is not performed in teens as the eyes do not stabilize. It takes lesser time to heal and the patients feel less pain, thereby making it preferable to PRK, photorefractive keratectomy. Surgeons advise the patients to stop wearing contact lenses at least 15 days before surgery as they may change the shape of the cornea. The patient is awake and mobile during the operation, the duration of which is nearly 30 minutes. In Lasik, a metal blade called microkeratome, is used to create the flap of cornea thereby revealing the stroma. Then, excimer laser is used to vaporize the tissue in a controlled manner, thereby remodeling the corneal stroma.

A course of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory eye drops is usually prescribed after the operation. Dark goggles are given to prevent direct exposure to bright light. But the procedure also has some risks or complications. One of the most common post Lasik complications is Sub conjunctive haemorrhage, which can be corrected by drugs. Some of the other complications reported frequently are: Sensitivity to light, dry eyes, wrinkles in flap, double vision, debris under flap, erosion of epithelium. But around 92-98% of patients are satisfied with Lasik.

However, Lasik surgeons debate over the blade and bladeless Lasik procedures. Bladeless Lasik or Lasik plus is a procedure where instead of the microkeratome (blade), a laser called intralase is used to create a flap. Both have their own merits and demerits according to these surgeons. On the contrary, with intralase, the vision threatening complications are less as compared to the microkeratome method. Intralase method is suitable for even people with thin corneas. Flap quality is arguably better with intralase when compared to microkeratome."

The next essential oil no skin should be without is called Neroli. Neroli is extracted from the flowers of the Bitter Orange or Seville Orange, is deep brown in colour and has a bitter sweet aroma thought to be one of the most beautiful of all the essential oils. No surprise then that it is widely used for commercial perfumes. The name is thought to be named after an Italian princess called Anne-Marie de la Tremoille, Countess of Nerola who used this oil both as a perfume and to scent her bathwater. It takes about 1000lbs of orange blossoms to make just 1lb of Neroli oil

Neroli oil contains the chemicals Pinene, limonene, Linalyl acetate, Linalol, Nerolidol, Nerol, Geraniol and Citral making it particularly soothing and helpful for ageing, dry or sensitive skin. It has the special property of being able to stimulate the grown of new healthy skin cells and therefore, like Frankincense, has certain rejuvenating abilities and so can help in the treatment of scar tissue and stretch marks. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for all skin types and, like most other essential oils, it also has an antiseptic, anti-infectious effect on the skin.

The next essential skin oil vital for skin health and vitality is Lavender oil. Lavender is an evergreen woody shrub whose flowering tops yield the full flowery smelling oil. Lavender has been used therapeutically and cosmetically for thousands of years, either as an essential oil or by using the dried flowers.

The name Lavender is derived from the Latin word 'lavera' which means 'to wash'. The Romans used Lavender extensively in their bath routine and it is thought it was they who brought the plant from their Mediterranean home to northern Europe where it is now widely cultivated as a cash crop. As one of the most versatile of all the oils, Lavender or Lavendel as some call it has been continually used for a wide variety of medicinal, beauty and hygiene purposes even when the other essential oils and aromatherapy itself fell out of favour.

Some of you may remember your parents or grandparents using bags or socks filled with lavender flowers in clothes cupboard and drawers to keep their clothes fresh and the moths at away, as it is an excellent insect repellent.

You may remember from earlier in this article that Rene-Maurice Gattefosse's, one of the early pioneers of research into essential oils, who noted Lavender's dramatic healing abilities when he used the oil to treat a burn he sustained in his laboratory. It was this discovery that inspired him to deepen his research and later to coin the word 'aromatherapie'.

Lavender's complex chemical structure of Borneol, Geraniol, Linalool, Lavendulyl acetate, Linalyl acetate and Cineol, mean that it is one of the more anti-septic, anti-bacterial and analgesic oils in the aromatherapy pantheon, making it a particularly effective, gentle and soothing treatment of burns, abscesses, acne, oily skin, boils, sunburn, eczema, wounds, insect bites and stings. Lavender is also well known as one of the three most powerful oils in stimulating the growth of healthy, new skin cells and so may help to maintain a 'fresh'

appearance.

The fourth and final essential oil your skin will thank you using is Carrot Seed. An annual or biennial herb with hairy leaves and umbels of white lacy flowers with purple centres, the name is derived from the Greek 'Carotos'.

The familiar bright orange carrot has been used as a medicinal plant at least since the first century AD and, as the name suggests, the oil is extracted from the seeds of the plant, not the edible root we all know. The oil is a pale yellow colour and has the characteristic smell of carrots. The presence of daucol, lomonene, pinene and especially carotene, a precursor to Vitamin A. make it a very nourishing 'skin food'. In skin care this is excellent oil.

It improves the complexion due to its strengthening effect on red blood cells, adding tone and elasticity to the skin. It is said to promote more 'youthful' appearance by restoring tone and elasticity whilst helping to reduce wrinkles and remove 'age' spots. It is also said to assists in the removal of toxins and water build up in the skin giving it a fresher, firmer appearance and can be an effective treatment for such skin conditions as eczema and psoriasis.

So there you have it, my special 'recipe' for I believe are the four essential oils vital to keeping your skin healthy and young looking. Now if only there were a natural facial skin cream that had all four of these oils in it. One that you could use either as a daily moisturiser or a nourishing night-time facial treatment, is suitable for men and women, that was very affordable, is all-natural, not tested on animals, could be ordered discreetly over the Internet and came with a 30 day money-back guarantee! Well, it just so happens there is one.

Hand-made in the UK, it's the only product I know of that contains all four of these wonderful 'youth oils.' If you'd like to find out more about this great anti-ageing moisturiser. You will find it at

TCA peel - what does it do?

TCA peel is a method to make your skin look more beautiful. It sloughs off the top layer of your skin cells and uncovers much more beautiful looking skin beneath.

Seconds after just 1 TCA peel then you will notice significant more beautiful looking skin including:

1) Sagging skin looks and feel tighter 2) If you have acne or skin blemishes then they may be reduced 3) Un-even pigmentation or sun-damaged skin will have improved 4) Dry or rough spots of your skin will have reduced 5) Your wrinkles will have been reduced, softened or may even have disappeared

Why is TCA peel better than product X?

Yes, there are many skin peeling products out there and you should be carefully when choosing. They can all be put into 3 groups which depends upon the depth of the peel they will do:

1) Light peel

2) Medium peel

3) Deep peel

The light peel products consist generally of AHA and Glycolic ingredients and their effect is so minor and short lasting that this is not your best choice.

Deep peels are done by using something called phenol which is very toxic and may cause heart failure and therefore phenol peelings are only done by doctors and only under heavy anesthesia. Phenol peelings will also cause the treated area to get lighter skin color than the rest of your skin and may also cause your skin pores to become bigger. Phenol may also cause scarring of the skin.

TCA peelings are medium depth peelings and will give you significant improvement of your skin - even seconds after just 1 peeling. And, TCA will not cause scarring or un-even pigmentation or the other risks associated with phenol peelings.

Is there a better peel than TCA peel?

Yes, you can actually get a peeling that is much more effective than using TCA alone.

You can achieve this by first applying something called salicylic to your skin. The salicylic will do 2 things that TCA can not do:

1) It will soothe the skin so the peeling session will be much more comfortable.

2) Salicylic acid is not so strong - but is able to penetrate deeper into your skin and loosen the bonds between skin cells.

The salicylic enables the TCA peel to penetrate deeper than otherwise possible - leaving with much more beautiful looking skin than you would have otherwise.

So you get a more comfortable and effective peeling in just 1 single session.

If you are like most users then you will want several peelings made over a period of time to achieve your final desired outcome.

After applying the salicylic acid then apply the TCA and leave it. Instantly you will see that your skin has tightened and looks better overall. After 1 week you will see the optimal result. Your skin will improve for every new peeling but only make 1 chemical peeling every 4 weeks.

After 5-10 peelings you will have achieved the maximum effect you can achieve. If you wish to have even bigger effect then you must get an even deeper peel. But, if you are satisfied with your skin then you only need a peel every 3 months in order to maintain the desired result.

Cellulite is just a fancy name that refers to the dimpled, lumpy, puckered appearance of the skin that some people have on their hips, thighs, and buttocks. It is much more common in women because of the differences in the way that fat and connective tissue are distributed in the skin of men and women.

Is there a difference between cellulite and fat? Everyone has a smooth layer of fat on his/her body. This fat layer insulates the body and cushions the internal organs. Cellulite, however, is lumpy and provides no cushioning. It is only present on certain parts of the body. For women, it can be on the hips, thighs, buttocks and/or abdomen. For the few men who have cellulite, it is usually on their abdomen.

WHAT CAUSES CELLULITE?

Although there are several factors that can influence whether a person has cellulite such as your genes, your gender, the amount of fat on your body, your age, and the thickness of your skin, the truth is: we do not know what causes cellulite.

*Being overweight does not cause cellulite - many sufferers are slim, while many severely obese people show no signs of it.

*Older people have more cellulite than younger people, although it is also prevalent in adolescents.

*Female hormones may play a role in contributing to cellulite, yet it is not treatable by hormone therapy.

THE ANSWER TO CELLULITE:

If you are one of the thousands, if not millions, of women who suffer from cellulite, your best policy is to avoid buying expensive commercial products. Instead, take the following steps.

1. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR DIET:

*Eat a low-fat diet. Eating a healthy diet is usually recommended as part of a weight maintenance lifestyle.

*Do not allow yourself to get dehydrated. Drink lots of water.

*Avoid excessive consumption of coffee, alcohol, and very high fat foods like chocolate, candy, etc.

*Make sure your diet includes enough fiber. (30 grams a day is a good target)

*Eat regular amounts of fresh fruit.

*The more natural foods your diet contains, the better.

2. QUIT OR CUT DOWN ON SMOKING.

3. AVOID UNNECESSARY MEDICATION:

In particular, avoid diet-pills, sleeping pills, laxatives and diuretic pills.

4. TAKE REGULAR EXERCISE:

Ideally, exercise in the fresh air. Make it part of your daily routine. Aerobic exercises like swimming and walking are best.

If outside exercise is impossible, do it inside to music. Or, do a regular series of breathing exercises.

5. DO NOT LET STRESS OVERWHELM YOU:

Make relaxation and massage a regular part of your daily routine. If you enjoy aromatherapy, blend a couple of drops of your favorite into a carrier oil like almond for example and GENTLY massage this into the area in question on a daily basis.

WHAT YOU WILL ACHIEVE:

Following these steps will help to cleanse your body of toxins that are believed to be a major contributory cause of cellulite.

They will also make you feel a lot better overall.

DO NOT EXPECT MIRACLES:

Despite the existence of hundreds of products and treatments that claim miracle properties, there is no miracle product that will make cellulite go away and there is no proven cure. So, do not expect miracles and do not waste your money searching for a magic bullet. There is no such thing.

When a person reaches middle age, they sometimes look back at the wasted years. Sometimes a person may wonder how they obtained wrinkles, illnesses, crowfeet, cellulite and so on. As they continue to look back, they may wander why they didn't take care of themselves. The answers are in front of you, so instead of regretting your past start taking steps to slow further aging now.

As we start to age normal body fat increases up to 30%. The fat will spread out over the body, which usually the stomach gets the highest volume of fat. The skin has less fat, which cause the skin to thin out. As the skin thins it causes wrinkles to occur. Unnatural wrinkles occur when a person smokes or else exposes the flesh excessively to the sun throughout their life.

As the skin thins, the functions and the body form starts to disintegrate and aging continues to beg to be excused. Upon the declining phase internal organ reactions or functions, begin to decline as well.

After a person turns 30, the body starts to send many other regrets.

Declination continues downhill from there on out. The body's functional reserves helps the healthy aging souls carry on, since particular organs can pull the weight.

As the person ages throughout his or her life the person may need to take medications, vitamins, supplements, etc which due to the changes in the body the person may experience effects from illness, environment and toxins in the remedies and environment. This is because the immune system has weakened. As we grow older, the kidneys weaken as well. For this reason the body is incapable of dismissing poisons that come from environmental elements.

Since many people engage in lifestyles deskbound these days or sedentary and many people smoke, use drugs, drink excessively, eat unhealthy, etc, it is often hard for experts to determine normal healthy aging from unnatural aging. When a person lives unnatural lifestyles the anatomy and the physiology aspects are overtly affected. This means that the nerve cells decline its action, which affects the basic useful unit of the Central Nervous System. (CNS) The neurons make up the cell bodies. The cells die, which are replaced by living cells.

As we age, the dying cells gather and the living cells fail to reproduce newer cells to replace the older cells. This mark can lead a person to cancer, or other types of deadly diseases. For this reason you want to learn remedies, about vitamins, supplements, etc that restore dying cells. Of course you are not capable of stopping nature from finally stopping living cells altogether, but you do have a chance to slow natures process. One of the best solutions is exercise. Studies have shown that exercise is the number one reason that people survive many diseases.. and reverse aging.

Once the cell bodies are affected, the dendrites in the brain start to decline also. When the dendrites start to decline it is a sure sign that mental confusions will follow. When dendrites are affected in the brain, other areas of the brain are affected as well. As you can see the chain of declination continues to decline until it finally reaches the main regions of the bodily functions.

Why infrared saunas?

Unlike traditional Finnish saunas which use stem to heat the air, and thereby the user, infrared saunas do not use steam but infrared radiation to directly heat the user.

An infrared sauna is using a specific type of heater that creates far infrared waves that heat your body directly, instead of just the air. Radiant energy produced by heaters, is the same as the heat from the sun, only without the harmful ultraviolet rays.

In a warm environment, an infrared sauna could be open air and still heat your body in the same manner, because the heaters don't rely on the air being hot. As a result, users are able to stay in the saunas for longer periods of time resulting in greater benefits.

An infrared sauna is typically a wooden box, or small wooden room, containing a number of infrared heaters.

Extensive testing has been done and it has been shown that infrared saunas are a safe way for anybody to enjoy.

Benefits of using an infrared sauna are twofold: one type of benefits is regarding your health and the other is about the ease of use.

There has been controversy over the health benefits of infrared saunas. The controversy is over the type of benefits that an infrared sauna can provide.

Scientific studies have found that half an hour session in an infrared sauna can result in the loss of toxins and stored fats in the body by up to 6 times the level a traditional sauna or exercise can achieve.

Because the skin is the largest body organ, frequently sweating in a far infrared sauna helps decrease the toxic load and contributes to better health and vitality. Infrared sauna use is beneficial for a wide range of ailments through the increase in circulation that it causes in the body.

A 30 minute session in an infrared sauna is equivalent to walking or jogging for 10 to 15 kilometers. An added health benefit is weight loss. Infrared heat penetrates deep into the tissues of the body to melt away cellulite and fats.

When it comes to the ease of use, keep in mind these facts:

Infrared saunas are inexpensive to operate. It takes only minutes to set up. You don't need any sort of plumbing and many consider this to be one of the most important benefits, since it eliminates a lot of trouble with installation. There are also portable far infrared saunas. So you don't have to leave it behind, ever.

In conclusion, infrared sauna is safe and effective detoxification therapy which is of value to everyone, regardless of age.

Is Mesotherapy a scam when it provides a safe, effective alternative to liposuction? No, it definitely is not. Mesotherapy is a new method whereby a non-surgical process of injections is used to eradicate cellulite and fat on those areas of the body where it is most noticeable, such as in hips, thighs, buttocks and abdomen.

Most importantly, Mesotherapy is the safest and most natural process of fat and cellulite removal available.

CAN MESOTHERAPY REDUCE WEIGHT?

Mesotherapy can reduce weight when combined with a diet and exercise program.

IS MESOTHERAPY REALLY A NATURAL TREATMENT?

Mesotherapy injections consist of vitamins, minerals, plant extracts and a host of compounds to ward off infection, increase circulation and improve the immune system.

Mesotherapy was first implemented in France in the 1950's. It is now offered throughout the United States as well. Touted as the safest alternative to liposuction, the injections contain compounds specific to the patient. Moreover, when performed by licensed practitioners, every precaution is taken to protect the patient from adverse allergic reactions.

IS MESOTHERAPY A CURE FOR CELLULITE AND FAT?

Due to the high number of fatalities caused by liposuction surgery, Mesotherapy has become the new cure for cellulite and fat. Because cellulite is contained in the middle level of skin tissue, fat cells are harbored there and eventually cause those familiar bumps and dimples everyone talks about. Mesotherapy melts the fat, increases the flow of blood in the area affected and dissipates the excess fat.

Rather than being a scam, Mesotherapy is proving to be a very important tool for combating ugly cellulite without the risks of liposuction. If you have questions, I invite you to contact me.
