Acoustic Shock Wave Therapy - the new wave


Recently a new device joined our family. It is called the X-Wave.

What is X-Wave ?
It is a device that transmits acoustic pulses. Acoustic pulses are extremely strong non-focused sound pulses that induce vibration within the body. The energy has been specially developed to avoid any skin damage while penetrating into the treatment area.





What is X-Wave Therapy?
Using the powerful energy of acoustic waves, it achieves the best results in non-invasive treatments of cellulite, scars and stretch marks.
 
 
What are the effects of X-Wave?
 
1. Increased blood flow supply - In cellulite, the capillary system is constrained by hypertrophic fat structures. X-Wave allows for growth of new capillaries which increases microcirculation, oxygen supply and metabolic rate in affected areas.
2. Waste Elimination - In cellulite, there is waste accumulation from waste product build-up that provokes alteration in connective tissue. By mechanical stimulation of lymphatic vascular system leading to reduction of oedema and better elimination of the lipids from the subdermal cells.
 
3. Collagen Remodeling - In cellulite, there is hypertrophic collagen and elastin fibers which dimples the skin surface. Acoustic pulses imnduce proliferation of fibroblasts. This process leads to the creation of a new thickened band of collagen.
 
 
 
How is the treatment conducted ?
the device comes with a light applicator with an ergonomic grip. It is then applied onto the treatment area in a back and forth or circular motion for several minutes according to the treatment protocol.
 
 
The Acoustic Wave Therapy has been scientifically proven for more then 30years in various medical treatments (eg disintegration of kidney stones, erectile dysfunction). In aesthetic medicine, the acoustic radial soft waves were successfully modified to the clinical needs of cellulite therapy and for the treatment of other aesthetic conditions.
In the studies conducted , there is a 73.6% increase of the skin elasticity, 85% patients appreacited the maximum level of comfort and 89% patients would recommend this treatment to others.

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...
