Ear Lobes

The earlobe is the small appendage where holes are usually made to wear earrings. It is an aesthetically important anatomical area, since its appearance is related to youth, state of health, beauty, etc. Its appearance changes as we get older and get older. When we are young, it looks smooth, dense and firm, and over time, it loses volume, smoothness and firmness, often appearing thin, long and even wrinkled.

Lobuloplasty is a simple procedure that restores youth to our lobe. It generally restores the youthful appearance of the lobe through reduction techniques or by restoring the lobe to its full, rounded shape. It is performed under local anesthesia and is a short procedure: it takes 30-50 minutes, depending on the complexity of the case. The purpose is that the lobe once again looks young, harmonic and firm.

On the other hand, torn lobes are those in which the hole of the earrings widens a lot, tears, and often the aesthetic appearance is not the desired one, either because the earrings cannot be worn properly, they have a wrong way and they look asymmetrical, and there are even cases in which the earring falls off. In the most severe cases, the hole has been torn so much that it is complete and a separation of the lobe occurs, which is called a “bifid lobe”.

Fortunately, these cases have an easy solution, with the excision of the affected area and the repair with fine stitches, which avoid marks in the area as much as possible. It is a simple, safe intervention, and with very flattering results. It is performed under local anesthesia and lasts 30-50 minutes, depending on each case.

Finally, lobes deformed by dilations can also be repaired, as well as other areas of the ear where piercings, earrings, etc. have been worn, although in these cases the complexity and time of the procedure are usually greater.

These procedures are simple, with predictable and highly satisfactory results for the patient who undergoes them.

Dermaroller

Facial skin is the most susceptible to marks and scars. At Bansal’s Clinic we look for therapies that improve your appearance but in the least invasive way possible. The facial DermaRoller collagen induction is a treatment that helps to recover the youth  of the skin from the inside, smoothing wrinkles, scars, expression lines, stretch marks and blemishes, among other benefits and that does not cause pain when applied.

WHAT IS THE FACIAL DERMAROLLER?

The DermaRoller is a new and simple device, equipped with microneedles (0.5mm) in a rotating tube, which is used manually and which ensures that the product that we apply to the treated area penetrates in greater quantity (up to 200 times more).

With this minimally invasive system, microneedles are passed through the area to be treated to achieve a double objective: on the one hand, to induce a natural production of collagen and elastin. This is where the main action and advantage of the treatment lies, the micro-perforations in the skin stimulate the skin’s repair mechanism, causing the synthesis of new collagen.

On the other hand, also by opening thousands of epidermal microchannels, these allow greater penetration of the different active ingredients that are used immediately after treatment. At Bansal’s Clinic we apply a cocktail of Vitamin C and DMAE in this treatment that gives us:

  • Vitamin C serum is very effective in fading and removing scars and blemishes. It is an illuminating treatment for devitalized and dull skin.
  • DMAE has a powerful tightening action that fights against flaccidity and reduces the formation of wrinkles. Intradermal administration treatment indicated to give firmness to the tissues and counteract flaccidity effectively. Increases muscle tone, exerting a lifting effect and increases the firmness of flaccid skin on the face and neck. In turn, it acts by improving hydration and elasticity.

FACIAL DERMAROLLER BENEFITS

Microneedles cause hundreds of microholes per cm2. of skin through which the chosen active ingredients penetrate, DMAE tensor and Vitaina C, applied obtaining incredible results.

The main benefits of the facial dermaroller are:

  • Correct wrinkles (crow’s feet, supralabial)
  • moisturize the skin
  • Repair the skin by synthesizing collagen
  • Improves oxygenation
  • activates circulation
  • Reduces blemishes and scars

The natural response to the DermaRoller titanium micro-needles causes the cells to reactivate and our skin to repair itself. In this way, our body reactivates the production of substances such as elastin and collagen, responsible for giving our skin a smooth, shiny and smooth appearance.

What is it for

DermaRoller stimulates the natural production of collagen and can be indicated for :

  • Completely remove scars caused by acne or small wounds;
  • Reduce the dilated pores of the face;
  • Fight wrinkles and promote skin rejuvenation;
  • Hide wrinkles and expression lines, especially those around the eyes, scalp and nasolabial fold;
  • Lighten spots on the skin;

In addition, the dermatologist may also indicate dermaroller to help treat alopecia, a disease characterized by the rapid and sudden loss of hair on the scalp or in another area of ​​the body.

To remove red stretch marks, old scars or very deep acne scars, the ideal is for the treatment to be carried out by a professional who should use a larger needle with 1, 2 or 2.5 mm. With needles greater than 0.5 mm, the treatment can be carried out by a specialized physiotherapist, however, with 3 mm needles, the treatment must be carried out by a dermatologist.

Filler

Dermal fillers are one of the most popular non-surgical techniques to keep the face youthful. This procedure is increasingly in demand because it has significant benefits and because it works against expression lines, fine wrinkles, folds and facial furrows. Do you want to know more about the benefits of dermal fillers?

BENEFITS OF DERMAL FILLERS

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments with biocompatible solutions that can be injected into any area of ​​the skin to increase volume. With this type of procedure, wrinkles and any folds in the skin resulting from the aging process are filled.

Over time, the skin loses elasticity and volume, especially in the area of ​​the cheeks and forehead. The result is sagging skin with wrinkles, folds and a somewhat emaciated appearance in general. Thanks to fillers, the youthful appearance of the face can be restored.

  1. The fillers do not require surgery, it is a procedure administered by injection without the risks of an intervention or anesthesia.
  2. After a dermal filler treatment you can return to your normal routine without any problem. Although a bruise may appear, there will be no impediment for you to have a normal life immediately.
  3. Instantly visible results. Although we will have to wait a few weeks to see the complete and definitive result, the truth is that the improvement is noticeable right away.
  4. Long-lasting but not permanent results. Although it may seem like a disadvantage, the truth is that with how easy this type of treatment is, you can return to it at another time. The fillings usually last up to 1 year and since they do not require any type of recovery, you can do it again when you need it.
  5. Substances used as dermal fillers help improve the appearance of the skin as they stimulate collagen production, leaving a much smoother complexion.
  6. Even some types of fillers are found naturally in the body so they are biocompatible and then distributed throughout the body.
  7. Dermal fillers as an antiaging treatment have mild side effects and a very low risk rate.
  8. There is a wide variety of dermal fillers that adapt to any personalized treatment.

TYPES OF DERMAL FILLERS

There are several types of injectable fillers and even different brands. But it will be your plastic surgeon who, after several consultations, will estimate which is the most appropriate range for your specific case. Each filler has its own benefits and uses, and meets certain needs.

Some of the dermal filler brands out there are Juvederm, Perlane, Radiesse, Restylane, Juvederm Voluma XC, and Artefill.

Injectable Juvederm is one of the most popular gel injectables due to its smooth consistency. It is a derivative of hyaluronic acid, a natural protein that the body itself produces. It is very effective in reducing the appearance of wrinkles and furrows of various depths and also in increasing the volume of the lips. This injectable gel also contains lidocaine so the patient will not feel any discomfort.

Perlane is another of the hyaluronic acid fillers approved to treat soft tissue augmentation. It is very interesting and useful for treating severe facial folds and wrinkles on the face. It has a higher consistency to fill in deeper creases and for cheek augmentation.

Restylane is one of the hyaluronic acid injectables that help fight aging by smoothing wrinkles and folds. It is often used to improve the shape of the lip and the contour of the face. It is a very popular option because it carries a low risk of allergic reaction.

Radiesse is one of the most prestigious dermal filler alternatives. It uses a synthetic calcium hydroxyapatite that will reduce the appearance of most wrinkles, folds, and scars. It works by increasing the body’s own supply of collagen, improving the suppleness and appearance of the skin. It is used to treat deep wrinkles and folds and also for cheek augmentation. It is one of the longest lasting dermal fillers available today and has a low chance of allergic reaction.

Hair Transplantation

The hair transplant with the FUE technique is the most requested hair transplant in our hair clinic in Shalimar Bagh. The hair transplant with the FUE technique (Follicular Extraction Unit) is the most advanced hair transplant to treat baldness and alopecia in both men and women.

What is the FUE technique?

We can define the hair transplant with the FUE technique as the capillary micrograft technique for a systematic redistribution of the hair follicles that consists of the introduction of small scalp grafts with the so-called “follicular units” (groups of 1, 2, 3 or 4 hair follicles as determined naturally). We can summarize it follicle by follicle.

These grafts are obtained under local anesthesia from the posterior and/or lateral area of ​​the scalp (what we call donor areas) and, after carefully preparing them under the microscope, they are carefully introduced through microincisions in the bald or alopecic areas, with little hair, that would evolve towards baldness (that is, the receptor areas).

Can the hair fall out again?

By obtaining the grafts from the posterior and lateral areas of the head, genetically programmed to grow throughout life as they have hormonal receptors that are not affected by enzyme hyperactivity, it is achieved that once grafted in other areas they do not fall and continue to grow normally.

Am I a good candidate to treat my baldness with a hair transplant with the FUE technique?

Yes if you meet the following parameters:

  • You suffer limited and controlled hair loss.
  • You suffer from scarring alopecia of little extension.
  • You want to wear your hair short and prefer to avoid the linear scar.
  • Your initial donor areas are low density.
  • You want to hide scars from previous transplants.

In the case of not complying with these parameters, there is another consolidated technique known as the strip technique or FUSS technique. In this article we explain the differences between both capillary micrograft techniques.

What is the main advantage of FUE hair transplant?

As for optimal results, if they are in the hands of specialists, there are no differences in results. They can be equally extraordinary. However, as we have indicated above, the main advantage of the FUE technique over FUT is that it does not leave visible scars with the naked eye. On the other hand, by not removing strips, the donor area maintains its density. The process in general has a shorter postoperative period.

If you want to know more cases about this technique, we invite you to visit a sample of our portfolio of cases here, or if you want to know in more detail how cases are dealt with individually, on our blog we publish posts about before and after cases where our medical team tells the procedure.

At our hair clinic in Shalimar Bagh we can help you find out if the FUE Technique can be the treatment you need for baldness. Request an appointment in the form, call us or start your Hair Test.

Peeling

Skin peeling is an age old, scientifically proven, safe method of skin rejuvenation. Skin Peeling is a medical procedure, which consists of application of certain products, after cleansing and degreasing face.

Peel is applied over the treatment area (face/neck/back etc) with the help of brush or bud in a specific pattern. With every sitting, time of application of peel and concentration of peel is increased.

Aim of a peel is to remove the upper dead layer of the skin and unclogging the clogged pores, thereby giving a smooth, fresh, rejuvenated, young looking flawless skin. Peelings which are done for cosmetic purpose are superficial in nature. Deeper peels are done to remove the deeper layers of skin (epidermis and / or upper dermis) and are utilized in deep seated pigmentation, acne scars and for anti aging purpose. Peels are extremely safe, if done under supervision of a trained dermatologist and are US FDA (Food & Drug Administration) Approved.

To name a few, different agents used for skin peeling are

  1. Glycolic (20 %, 35 %, 50 %, 70 %) which is synthetic sugar cane product. Glycolic is classified under alpha hydroxy acid (AHA)
  2. Salicylic which is a Beta Hyroxy peel commonly used to treat pimples.
  3. Tri Chloro Acetic (TCA) peel, commonly used for pigmentation
  4. Phenol Peels
  5. Combination Peels etc

At Bansal Skin & Smile Clinic, we have range of skin peels like Glycolic, salicylic and TCA peels, which will be selected depending on individual skin condition. SALICYLIC PEEL A beta hydroxy peel, which is very superficial in nature. It peels off the upper dead layer of the skin and opens up the clogged pores and thus helps in reduction of acne/pimples. It also helps in minimizing the oiliness in the skin which is very common in acne patients. It is highly recommended peel for Acne /pimples of any grade and gives extremely good results in just 2 to 4 sittings.

Recommended for:Pigmentation, blemishes,wrinkle,oily, dull and acne prone skin. Alsofor Acne Scars,Pits,Ageing Skin.

Skin Rejuvenation

Skin rejuvenation process is a procedure of reversing many signs of ageing that are visible so that you can have a young and beautiful looking skin. Skin rejuvenation helps in diminishing wrinkles and fine lines on older skin as well as loose and sagging areas, leaving you with a younger looking skin. Many cosmetic skin conditions and dermatological problems can be dealt with the help of fractional laser skin resurfacing. Skin rejuvenation can be done in many ways, ranging from laser, light and other treatments to chemical peels and other non-ablative methods.

This results in a smoother, clearer and younger skin. Apart from surgical and medical procedures, natural procedures also help a lot more in your younger looking desire. Natural skin rejuvenation is a process of giving your body the tools it requires to revitalize naturally from inside. Your body has already refreshed skin cells and repairs itself using the healing process. The healing process is skin rejuvenation that is why chemical peels and dermabrasions are so popular and effective treatments. We offer fractional resurfacing treatment which provides an epidermal effect together with deep dermal volumetric heating for anti-wrinkle effects.

Fractional skin resurfacing is a revolutionary technology in skin rejuvenation and treats scars, stretch marks, wrinkles and skin imperfections such as uneven skin tone, brown spots due to damage from the sun. Non-invasive fractional resurfacing laser produces tiny micro thermal treatment zones, penetrating deep into the dermis and leaving the skin intact and unaffected. Fractional treatments help the skin in healing much faster using the body’s normal healing process to create new, healthy and tighter tissues.

Clinical studies recommend a treatment routine of 4 to 5 sessions for optimal results. Before fractional laser skin resurfacing came, only two types of laser treatments, ablative and non-ablative were in vogue. Ablative laser treatment uses vapour at a high temperature, are very effective but also side effects with long recovery time. Non-ablative laser treatments have either little or no side effects or almost no healing time, but treatments may take over a month’s time and provide limited results. This technology is advantageous as the array of narrow beams stimulates quick natural healing in the surrounding tissue, making this efficient for deep corrections and promoting long term dermal remodelling.

The Palomar Solution – How Fractional Skin Resurfacing Works
The fractional laser treatment provides the effectiveness of ablative treatments with the advantage of gentler, non-ablative lasers. These lasers are FDA approved and have been found safe and efficient in treatment in many areas of the face and body. Lasers work by using a modified light that passes through our skin and is absorbed by the water in the damaged collagen just beneath the surface of the skin.

The laser light removes very fine layers of skin, therefore, fading the look of wrinkles and levelling the texture of the skin. Fractional resurfacing stimulates collagen regeneration and as the healing procedures begin, new cells are produced leaving the skin softer and clearer. Fractional resurfacing can last for a longer period of time, but is not permanent and you may need to go for follow-up procedures to maintain your new look.

Surgical Nail Removal

Surgical nail removal can be done for severe or returning fungal nail infections. The entire nail (avulsion) or only part of the nail (debridement) can be removed.

Surgical nail removal can be done in a clinic or your doctor’s office. Your doctor will give you an injection in the finger or toe to prevent pain. He or she will then loosen the skin around the nail (nail folds) from the nail and separate the nail from the skin by using a tool under the nail. If only part of the nail is diseased, only the diseased part is removed.

If you want to avoid future infection by preventing the nail from growing back, your doctor can destroy the nail matrix. This is accomplished by applying a chemical to the cuticle area after the nail plate is removed. An antibiotic ointment is applied to the wound, which is then covered with gauze and tape.

What To Expect After Surgery
For the first few weeks after surgery, clean and dry the wound. Then apply a layer of antibiotic ointment. The wound should heal within a few weeks. Fingernails may take 6 months to grow back, and toenails may take 12 to 18 months to grow back.

Why It Is Done
Surgical nail removal is usually performed only when a large portion of the nail is diseased and damaged or if your nails are very painful. In some cases, only the diseased portion is removed, not the entire nail. This procedure is rarely needed.

How Well It Works
After the diseased nail has been removed, the infection can be further treated by applying an antifungal cream to the remaining infected area or by taking oral antifungal medicine.

Risks
Risks of this procedure include:

  • Pain.
  • Infection. You can reduce the risk of infection by keeping the area clean and dry and regularly applying antibiotic ointment.
  • Abnormal nail growth. When the nail grows back, it may be odd in shape and appearance.

What To Think About

Nail removal makes it possible to apply an antifungal cream directly to the infected area, increasing the likelihood that the infection can be cured. For a chronic severe fungal nail infection, you can choose to have the nail matrix destroyed during the removal procedure. This treatment prevents a diseased or disfigured nail from growing back.
