What to expect?
If only a small implant or cartilage graft is needed, the
surgery is performed under local anaesthesia and no
need to stay in hospital. If nasal bone osteomy is needed,
general anaesthesia may be needed. The incisions are
typically placed inside the nostrils, but may possibly be
across the thin strip of skin in between the nostrils (columella).
Regardless of the approach, all incisions heal extremely
well and are barely visible over time.

Conclusion
The rhinoplasty should be tailored and sculptured to the
need of each individuals nasal anatomical dissatisfaction
to realize the best aesthetic outcome. This procedure
will help those who are suffering from low self-esteem due
to an aesthetically undesirable or plain looking nose.

Nutrition
Ms Supanee Sararaks
Clinical Dietitian
You are what you eat. When it comes to your skin, the quality
of your appearance in many ways reflects the quality of
your diet. Your food across the board will affect your skin,
positively or negatively. Nutritional status plays an important
role in the maintenance of healthy skin Macronutrients
(carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids) and micronutrients
(vitamins and nutritionally essential minerals) work together
to maintain the barrier functions of the skin in the face of
everyday challenges.
Changes in nutritional status that alter skin structure and
function can also directly affect skin appearance. Unlike
many organs, skin nutrition may be enhanced directly through
topical applications. Topical application of micronutrients can
complement dietary consumption, leading to a stronger, healthier
protective barrier for the body.

organic and
fresh foods

Vol 17
Avoid consuming more than 2-3 fried food per week as fats
in fried food tend to oxidize and form trans-fatty acids which
can contribute to heart disease, poor blood circulation and a
weakened metabolic process. Since healthy skin requires
healthy circulation and metabolism, weak systems can lead to
a lack of oxygen in the skin, slowing the collagen and elastin
syntheses necessary for youthful radiance.
Omega-6 (n-6) and omega-3 (n-3) play a critical role in normal
skin function and appearance. Both n-6 and n-3 PUFAs
give rise to potent signaling molecules, called eicosanoids,
which influence the inflammatory response in the skin.
Dietary supplementation and topical application of certain
n-3 PUFAs attenuates UV-induced photo damage, extrinsic
signs of skin aging, and inflammatory skin responses.
Results of another study suggest a mixture of tocopherols and
tocotrienols may be superior to alpha-tocopherol alone, as
the mixture showed reduced sunburn reactions and tumor
incidence after UV exposure in mice. However, further trials
with dietary tocotrienol/tocopherol mixtures are needed in
human subjects.

Acne
in Adolescents
Acne (Pimple) is an extremely common
skin condition. It can affect people of
all ages. Approximately 85% of people
between the ages of 12 and 25 develop
acne. It is a condition that mainly affects
adolescents but may sometimes persist or
even become more severe in adulthood.
What is acne?
Acne is an inflammatory skin disease
which affects the tiny pores covering
the face, arms, back and chest and the
oil glands (sebaceous glands) attached to
them.

LASIK
What Is LASIK?
LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ
Keratomileusis, commonly referred to
as laser eye surgery or laser vision
correction. It is a popular refractive surgery
for the correction of nearsightedness,
farsightedness and astigmatism, an option
to reduce the dependency on glasses
and contact lenses. LASIK is performed
by an ophthalmologist and it permanently
reshapes the cornea, the clear covering
of the front part of the eye, using an excimer
laser. The reshaped cornea helps to focus
light directly onto the retina to improve vision.
In LASIK, a thin flap in the cornea is created
using a microkeratome blade. A hinge is left
at one end of the flap. The surgeon then
folds back the flap and then removes some
corneal tissue underneath using an excimer
laser. The flap is then laid back in place,
covering the area where the corneal tissue
was removed.
With nearsighted people, the goal of LASIK
is to flatten the too-steep cornea; with
farsighted people, a steeper cornea is
desired. LASIK can also correct astigmatism
by smoothing an irregular cornea into a more
normal shape.
LASIK surgery cannot treat presbyopia (lau
hua) per se. However, monovision through
LASIK is a popular option. In monovision, the
dominant eye is fully corrected for distance

An eye shield will be given to protect the
flap for the first day and night. The vision
is quite reasonable by the next day and
will continue to improve over the next 1
month. Most normal daily routine can be
resumed shortly after the treatment. It is
not a problem to travel by airplane after the
surgery. Swimming and sea sports should
be avoided for 1 month.

Introduction
Eyes are often considered the window of
the souls and important in the daily face to
face interaction. They are key features of
an attractive face and have big impact and
dramatic difference on how we look and
feel. Eyelids are the first part of the face
to be improved if needed.

Lower eyelid
bag and dark circles
Tear Trough
During the procedure, the
incision is made below the lower
eyelash, where wrinkly skin,
excess muscles and fat are
selectively removed. The skin is
then lifted and closed with tiny
sutures.
For those with excess fat
bulging but without excess or
wrinkly lower eyelid skin, the
incision will be placed inside
the lower lid in a technique
called trans-conjunctival lower
blepharoplasty. No external scar
is visible at all.

Will it hurt?
The procedure is performed under local
anaesthesia which numbs the area around the
eyes. You may be awake or feel sleepy during
the surgery, but insensitive to pain.
Non-surgical Methods?
Various wrinkle treatments are used to
improve the appearance of puffiness under
the eyes. These include laser resurfacing,
chemical peels and fillers, which may
improve skin tone, tighten the skin, reduce
dark eye circles, obliterate the tear trough
and rejuvenate the look of bags under the eyes.

Mungkin Anda
sudah sangat
sering mendengar
saran untuk hindari
merokok, selalu gunakan
tabir surya, hindari sinar
matahari langsung untuk menghindari penuaan
kulit.
Namun sudahkah Anda tahu bagaimana
penuaan tersebut tercetus? Untuk mengetahui
selengkapnya, ada baiknya kita menelusuri
terlebih dahulu bagaimana kulit bekerja di
tubuh kita.
Bagaimana kulit bekerja?
Kulit, organ terluas dari tubuh Anda, terdiri dari
3 lapisan yaitu:
Epidermis: lapisan tipis terluar dimana
terjadi pergantian sel kulit paling sering dan
konstan
Dermis: lapisan tengah kulit yang tebal
yang kaya akan kolagen dan elastin yang
memberikan kulit kekenyalan dan elastisitas.
Hipodermis: lapisan paling dalam yang
terdiri dari sel lemak dan berhubungan
dengan tulang dan otot.
Seiring dengan usia, produksi sel kulit yang
baru mengalami penurunan di epidermis
dan kolagen serta elastin di dermis mulai
mengalami penipisan. Kulit juga dipengaruhi
oleh adanya faktor dari luar seperti misalnya
kerusakan akibat sinar UV yang berujung pada
Sinar UV
Sinar UV pada matahari dapat merusak elastin
dan jaringan kolagen dan menyebabkan kulit
Faktor-faktor lain apa sajakah yang juga dapat
menjadi berkerut dan kendur.
menyebabkan penuaan kulit?
Sinar UV juga mengeluarkan molekul tidak
stabil yang disebut dengan radikal bebas.
Radikal bebas ini mempengaruhi kemampuan
kulit untuk menjaga kelembaban kulit sehingga
kulit menjadi kering.
