Sebaceous cysts often originate from inflammation of the hair follicles.
¿Qué son los Quistes Sebáceos?
Los quistes sebáceos son bultos benignos que se forman bajo la piel debido a la obstrucción y la inflamación de los folículos pilosos. Aunque generalmente no son peligrosos, pueden causar molestias estéticas y, en algunos casos, llegar a infectarse.
Cuadro Clínico de los Quistes Sebáceos
Los quistes sebáceos suelen localizarse en áreas como la cara, el cuello y el tronco. Sus características clínicas más comunes son:
Movilidad: Se mueven libremente bajo la piel.
Crecimiento: Crecen lentamente con el tiempo.
Pain: No suelen causar dolor a menos que se infecten.
Cuando un quiste sebáceo se infecta, puede presentar los siguientes signos y síntomas:
Enrojecimiento de la piel: La piel alrededor del quiste puede ponerse roja.
Pain: Puede haber dolor en la zona afectada.
Aumento de la temperatura local: La piel sobre el quiste puede sentirse más caliente al tacto.
Drenaje: Se puede observar la salida de un material blanco grisáceo y caseoso.
Treatment of Sebaceous Cysts with Laser
El tratamiento convencional para los quistes sebáceos ha sido la resección quirúrgica, que implica la eliminación del quiste junto con la piel circundante. Sin embargo, en Hoogstra Centros Médicos ofrecemos una alternativa innovadora y menos invasiva: el tratamiento con láser.
Ventajas del Tratamiento Láser
Menos Invasivo: No requiere cirugía extensa.
Sin Anestesia: Gracias a la alta velocidad de impacto del láser Lotus III, no es necesario aplicar anestesia local ni cremas anestésicas.
Procedimiento Rápido y Eficaz: Se realiza un pequeño orificio en la parte más protuberante del quiste para su drenaje, seguido de la aplicación del láser en modalidad pulso largo para contraer las paredes del saco del quiste.
Recuperación Inmediata: El paciente puede continuar con sus actividades cotidianas inmediatamente después del procedimiento.
Indoloro y Sin Cicatrices: Este tratamiento es completamente indoloro y no deja cicatrices visibles.
En Hoogstra Centros Médicos, nos enorgullecemos de utilizar tecnología avanzada para ofrecer a nuestros pacientes tratamientos efectivos y mínimamente invasivos para quistes sebáceos y forúnculos.

La toxina botulínica es una neurotóxina elaborada por una bacteria denominada Clostridium botulinum. Se trata de la toxina más poderosa descubierta hasta la fecha. La versión más popular de esta neurotóxica por su uso en estética se denomina Botox.
The capacity that the Botulinum toxin To produce muscular paralysis by chemical denervation, it is used to use it as a medicine in the treatment of certain neurological diseases and as a cosmetic product for the aesthetic treatment of facial wrinkles.
What does the treatment consist of?
The pharmacological effect of botulinum toxin occurs at the level of the neuromuscular junction. In this transition region between the peripheral nerve and the muscle, the release of acetylcholine occurs, a neurotransmitter necessary to produce muscle contraction. Botulinum toxin acts locally by blocking the release of acetylcholine, which results in temporary muscular paralysis. The final effect is a temporary chemical denervation at the neuromuscular junction without causing any physical injury to the nerve structures.
We can perform various procedures to give the look a natural, happy, youthful and rested expression. A fast and effective improvement can be achieved with the placement of Botulinum toxin.
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation with fillers and botulinum toxin is a daily practice for women and men who want to look and feel better without having to go through the operating room.
You can get a natural and outpatient facial rejuvenation.
It is necessary for the operator to have knowledge of the anatomy, for this reason, plastic surgeons are the most suitable to perform this type of procedure. It also requires a sense of aesthetics that not everyone has it.
Application areas
Wrinkles in Peri orbital zone, crow's feet
It is not only possible to attenuate these wrinkles and prevent them from becoming furrows that are difficult to remove in the future, but it is also possible to improve the expression of the gaze. I can get a natural, fresher and more youthful expression.
Many patients concur expressing their fear because in other centers they obtained unnatural results.
The unnatural result is the consequence of applying toxin in areas that are not adequate and these can be avoided by knowing the anatomy and muscle functions.
Eyebrow wrinkles
In those patients who wrinkle the eyebrows a lot, botulinum toxin must be placed, also to avoid deep grooves that must then be filled with Hyaluronic acid.
A small amount of toxin should be placed in this anatomical region to avoid dropping the head of the eyebrow, which gives an unnatural appearance.

Frontal wrinkles
Frontal wrinkles are also an indication to apply botulinum toxin, but it should be done in moderation to avoid lowering of the eyebrows.
Nasal wrinkles
It is another indication.
Lip wrinkles
There are patients who, when they speak, mark all the wrinkles on their lips
In these patients it is necessary to slightly block the muscular action, because they are candidates to have very deep lip wrinkles.

Over the years, the face begins to lose volume due to reabsorption and decrease in adipose tissue and collagen.
This is manifested by flattening of the cheekbones, sagging of the cheeks and presence of facial grooves. To achieve facial rejuvenation it is necessary to replace the lost volumes.
Filler Treatment with Hyaluronic Acid
Today we have filler materials that do not produce allergic reactions, do not migrate and give natural results. The procedure begins with the placement of anesthetic creams and cold that make it painless and allow the patient resumes his activity after the end of the procedure. This procedure gives harmony to the face, reduces furrows and depressions, and the patient can observe and accompany the doctor's work.
At Hoogstra Medical Centers, the placement of fillers and the application of botulinum toxin (like all surgeries) are performed by Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra.
Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra uses only two types of fillers.
1) Autologous, the patient's own fat autograft.
2) Heterologous or synthetic, of which only hyaluronic acids such as Restylane (from the Galderma laboratory) and Voluma (from the Allergan laboratory) are used.
Unfortunately, many patients come to our Centers reporting that they placed hyaluronic acid, and when asked how long it took since the placement, many times indicate a much longer time than they last in the body.
Restylane has an average duration of 14 months. Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra uses it for wrinkle fillers and facial grooves. Voluma has a much longer duration and is used to model cheekbones, chin, tear canal and maxillary branch.
Currently, unfortunately, some medical and non-medical professionals continue to make fillers with prohibited products such as silicones. This leads to great physical deformations, damage to the health and psyche of the patient. This damage is permanent and irreversible. Silicones migrate and produce those typical facial and lip deformations.
If you see a deformed lip or a deformed face, it is very likely that a prohibited product has been placed on it.

Hyaluronic acids and botulinum toxin should be applied exclusively by plastic surgeons who have a greater understanding of the anatomy of the body.
The application should be done slowly and progressively so that the patient is accompanying the subtle changes that occur.
If the procedure is performed in this way, the results should always be natural and the patient would notice an improvement immediately after application.
In our center it is very rare to see a hypercorrection, but if this were to occur, first you have to wait about 30 days because it is probably a small inflammation, which is based on soft massages that the same patient performs.
More information on hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is present in the human body and this makes it the safest filler on the market and it could be confirmed that it is practically free of complications.
Rejection of hyaluronic acid by the patient usually results from the use of a low-quality brand.
It is common to receive patients who underwent treatments in other centers and report that it lasted only a couple of months.
This is because they got low quality hyaluronic acid.
In our Centers there are only two brands that give us maximum security and they are Restylane (Galderma) and Voluma (Allergan).
What is hyaluronidase?
Hyaluronidase is an enzyme, a catalyst, that breaks the hyaluronic acid molecule and breaks it down, leading to its reabsorption and disappearance.
How long does it work?
Una pregunta frecuente es ¿Cuánto tiempo tarda el producto en reabsorberse?
As long as a second session is not required, the product will disappear in less than 24 hours.

Use of Platelet Rich Plasma in internal and external female genital rejuvenation.
One of the very little invasive procedures that rejuvenates the vagina and vaginal lips is the application of Platelet Rich Plasma.
Genital rejuvenation without surgery
For many years we have used the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) to reduce wrinkles, furrows, cellulite, stretch marks and repair ulcers. It is also used in orthopedics and dentistry for bone repair.
The use of rich plasma has no adverse effects on the body. It consists of removing a small amount of blood from the patient himself, centrifuging it, and using the platelet concentrate to reconstitute tissue.
Platelets have substances called Growth Factors, which once injected into the desired area produces a cellular rejuvenation.
For a few years now, at Hoogstra Medical Centers we have been using PRP for internal and external genital rejuvenation, sometimes as the only procedure, but more frequently in combination with laser, both for facial and genital rejuvenation.
It is a quick, painless and immediate recovery procedure, and the patient can have sex the next day. If combined with lasers, it requires a 7-day sexual abstinence.
With the injection of this fraction of PRP we seek to reverse the signs of aging of the mucous membranes and skin due to the action of these released growth factors.
What does the treatment consist of?
Growth factors stimulate the production of fibroblasts responsible for the synthesis of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, essential components for maintaining the structure of tissues. Also by its action angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) and mitogenesis (formation of new cells) are stimulated. All these changes improve dryness, atrophy, flaccidity, dyschromia (color alterations) and improve the texture, tone, color, shine and luminosity of the skin and mucous membranes.
After applying the PRP, the skin can feel smoother, softer and younger. The same happens at the level of the vaginal mucosa: the secretion of hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin is stimulated, which improves the lubrication of the vaginal canal and prevents pain during intercourse.
The frequency of sessions is one every month with a maximum of 3 per year. Results for some women are fast and in other cases it takes several weeks to achieve the desired effects.
Origins of treatment
Since 2009 when Dr. Charles Runels, a doctor from Alabama, United States, began applying PRP to the clitoris and vaginal roof where the G-spot is supposed to be, there are more and more women in the United States and Europe than request this procedure. Dr. Charles Runel says his patients have “increased arousal, more intense orgasms, and younger, smoother skin around the vagina ".
This procedure is the same that we have been performing to rejuvenate the vagina and external genitalia, although with greater application of plasma rich in the vaginal ceiling and clitoris. Sometimes we also associate the application of hyaluronic acid in these areas.
The results are produced by a decrease of the vaginal introitus favoring friction, rejuvenating and lubricating the genitals, obtaining a positive effect in the sexual act.

The face begins to show signs of aging when wrinkles become more pronounced, the furrows deepen, the branch of the jaw loses definition, the cheekbones lose volume, the neck loses definition and gains volume, the lips become thin and lengthened and the eyelids have bags and excess skin.
When this process begins and its signs are incipient, it is feasible to treat it conservatively or minimally invasively.
If you notice that your face has lost the shape of the oval, that the branch of the maxilla has lost definition and that you have a significant excess of skin and fat on your neck, you probably need a face lift.
face lift
This procedure repositions the structures, the face recovers its oval and the patient gains freshness and youth.
The face and neck lift is performed with local anesthesia and sedation, mostly on an outpatient basis. The approximate time to resume the activity is 10 days.
Generally to achieve a natural, pleasant and harmonious result, the face and neck lift is associated with other procedures such as:
If the patient presents lip, cheek, periorbital wrinkles, it would be indicated to associate treatment with Carbon dioxide laser.
If the patient has a decrease in the forehead and eyebrows, surely a Endoscopic Lifting.
If the grooves that go from the nose to the lip and from the lip to the chin are pronounced, they can be filled (See nasolabial groove filling).
If the neck shows an increase in adipose tissue, laser lipomodeling is performed (See Lipolysis laser).
Face lift Price
The value of the consultation with Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra is U$D 100 . If you later decide to carry out the treatment, this value will be deducted from the total amount.
The cost of face and neck lifting is u$d 8.500 (VAT not included).
Duration of the procedure
The surgery time is approximately 90 minutes. The time of stay in the clinic approximately 6 hours.
This treatment is carried out by Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra in Hoogstra Medical Centers Caballito branch.
Facelift before and after
In these patients we can see how the replacement of facial structures provides harmony, youth and beauty to the face. The results are natural because the only thing that is sought is to recover its previous state.
In the following example, in the pre-treatment image, it is shown how in the aging process, facial structures are losing definition and the face takes on the appearance of a square rather than an oval.
The oval is youth, the square shows us the laxity of the superficial and deep structures and the displacement of these tissues from the face to the neck. In the postoperative photo the patient recovers the shape of the oval. This is accomplished through a replacement of the superficial (skin) and deep facial structures (muscles and fascia).
In the following photos, a face and neck lift and laser lipo of the maxilla and neck were performed on the patient. We can observe the naturalness of the result and the absence of visible scars. No filling of the nasal lip grooves was performed, which would have further improved the result obtained.
In most of these patients, filling of the nasolabial and chin grooves was also performed. In the aging process, most of the structures of the face move downwards, while the facial centers deepen, this is caused by reabsorption of the bones.
It is for this reason that most of the time we do a facelift we must use fillers, which can be used many times before surgery to delay the facelift. Sometimes they can be done during the procedure as we did with these patients and other times they are done postoperatively.
