Dermaveill Liquid Lift Filler - the new POly Lactic Acid filler

Went to San Diego USA in June to have theory and practical training for a new Poly-L-Lactic ( PLLA) filler called Dermaveill. Dermaveill is a US product produced by a new company owned by the CEO of Sculptra , another PLA filler. The studies for lipo atrophy and liquid lifting was conducted in a renowned, private medical centre in Tijuana, Mexico by DrJorge Tagle, their famous plastic & Cosmetic Surgeon. The trip was made fun by TJ, our organiser from Sunward.
On the first day we had a session on the product, it's development, it's correct usage, it's potential complications and side effects and it advantages. Dermaveill is better then Sulptra as it's molecules elliptical instead of spherical, thus making it easier to inject with less needle blockage. It also has no risk of forming nodules in the long term allowing for more superficial injection techniques.

The next day we went to Tijuana to have injection demonstration and guidance by DrTagle who has injected over 5000 patients with Dermaveill in the course of 2years! His results are really impressive with some lasting more then 2 years! Some of the faces look so different and so much more youthful. 
I love this new product. 

On the last day, we had to seat for an exam to ensure that all technique is correct and product is understood well. As we are the first 3 Drs in Malaysia exposed to Dermaveill PLA and will be the trainers for future Malaysian Drs. 

In summary Dermaveille is a new Poly lactic acid PLA filler which after injected allows for natural reservation of collagen. Because it is in liquid form ( water base) it can be injected anywhere in the face, safely. It is beautiful for volume replacement especially for faces that has "deflated" over the years from simply aging, sagging, or loss of weight or from ill health. After injected, the final result is very natural looking making the person look more refreshed and "lifted" without the overdone look of harder fillers or the stiffness of surgery. It only need 2 sessions 1 month apart for optimal results that will last 15-18 months but patients are recommended to best do a touch up every 12 months to maintain a good collagen stimulation.

Laser Vagina Rejuvenation

Our V2LR laser handpiece is finally here. Had a revision session with Prof Zerbinatti in the clinic on 3rd Jan. Imagine, for those of us who wish to "rejuvenate" ourselves can do so now with ease and painlessly. Just make an appointment with the clinic, come in 30min earlier so a topical numbing cream can be applied, and have the procedure conducted and completed in 1/2 hr,tops. What will you get ? Well, internally the lasering will "puff"up the mucosa of the vaginal wall by collagen remodeling, as well as improve sensations. Externally the procedure can lighten the skin color, increase sensitivity as well tighten surrounding area. ALl these in just 3 sessions! Prof Zerbinatti claims that in his clinic this is currently the most popular procedure among women in their 30s and 40s. I am very excited about this procedure. I know a lot of women out there do not have any problems, and therefore do not require any surgical LVR but would like to just improve. Like everyhti...

Loose Weight in 3weeks !

Finally found a quick fix to a long term problem! This method not only can reduce the excess weight fast and permanently, it does this by burning the reserved stubborn fat in the body and not the structural fat which easily returns with a vengeance once a program is over. In summary, this "Enhanced" Weight Loss Program aims to : 1. Loose excess weight esp from stubborn fats 2. Increase and Reset Basal Metabolic Rate to a higher level and by doing the #1 and #2, able to 3. Maintain the weight loss forever! ( don't we all wish for this?) . With all this in mind, I decided to embark on this program myself. It is Day 8 today. This protocol should reduce my weight from 0.5 to 1.0lb per day. I only need to follow a special diet plan and take the medication daily. Total loss expected if all progresses accordingly will be 6 to 9kg (or upto 15lbs). I started with 64.8kg on Day1, went up to 64.9kg on Day2 and have progressively lost between 0.3 to 0.7kg daily since. Today I am at 6...

Automated Hair Transplantation

Finally, something to write! After returning from Italy after the V2LR training, I became interested in a new technology for Hair Transplantation called the S.A.F.E.R. techniquee using the French made PUNCH Matic machine. Traditionally, hair transplantion is a very time consuming process taking around 6 to 8 hours of tedious and meticulous work. Because of this, many Drs and Surgeons prefer not to conduct this procedure in their practice. Also the old technique gave only 60-80% follicular survival rate and for someone who is losing his/her hair, losing more doner hair can be unacceptable. I began to like the idea of this new technique when I found out that I do not have to cut a few strips of scalp skin from the back of the head to donate the follicle unit(FU). With the SAFER technique I only vacuum individual hair follicle out without cutting the skin. This makes is very much less invasive and less complications. Survival of the follicular unit is also much higher. I also...
