Increasing of buttocks

Auto graft of fat in the buttocks. It is a procedure designed to increase and give volume, roundness and projection to the buttocks.

Buttock augmentation is a procedure that reshapes and improves the shape of the gluteal area, providing a profile of the raised and projected buttock.

The buttocks are one of the most attractive parts of the female body. In the past ten years, this procedure has become increasingly popular worldwide as well-shaped buttocks are a symbol of femininity and sensuality.

The gluteal fat grafting improves the balance of the figure and molds the body contour, producing an effect in increasing self-esteem and self-confidence.

Intervention

The most frequent method to shape the buttocks is through the fat obtained from the patient's own body. This procedure is a good alternative for its safety and optimal results, in order to obtain the desired harmony.

Reasons to consider a buttock augmentation treatment

  • Lack of volume or buttocks too small for your body structure.
  • Buttock shape too flat and without curves.
  • Flaccidity due to weight loss or aging.
  • If the clothes and swimsuits do not fit correctly in your figure.

Lipo fat transfer or auto grafting in the gluteal region produces results that are immediately visible, although the definitive results must be evaluated at 6 months.

We can obtain naturally rounded buttocks both in texture and appearance.

In order to carry out an adequate fat auto graft in the gluteal region, it is essential that the patient has abundant fat in the abdomen and lower limbs.

In Skin tags, SKIN INJURIES, Skin Tumors

Skin tags

They are benign tumors that form mainly in regions of folds such as the neck, armpits, groin, eyelids, and submammary folds.

At Hoogstra Medical Centers we have several types of lasers that allow us to treat these tumors effectively, quickly, painlessly and with immediate recovery.

What are skin tags?

Skin tags are not warts, they are fibroepithelial polyps or pedunculated papules. They are soft in consistency and can be white or dark and usually present in the 50 % of people over 50 years of age. Skin tags are not viral in origin and are therefore not contagious. The treatment is solely for aesthetic purposes.

What is the cause?

There is not enough research to determine the causes of skin tags. Despite this, they are common with age. They are also common in people who have diabetes and in people who are overweight. They are also hereditary.

Remove skin tags with Erbium Laser treatment

The laser used in our medical centers produces microperforation fractions keeping the skin around these perforations intact. This allows the skin that receives these perforations to regenerate (heal) from the outside to the inside, improving the skin more quickly, and with less risk of deep injury. It enters the skin generating an increase in temperature and, consequently, the production of collagen is stimulated.

In one session many injuries can be eliminated, after each session you can immediately continue with your activity.

In Acne

Acne Acute

What is acute acne?

The typical presentation of acne is the appearance of open and closed comedones. They can be added later inflammatory lesions like papules or pustules. When healing, injuries can leave scars over-raised or depressed.

Studies indicate a high correlation between acne, low self-esteem, shame, anxiety, depression, and social disorders, particularly social isolation.

Acute acne should be taken seriously and not allowed to progress. It can be stopped and damage to the skin and psyche can be avoided.

Types of acne

Comedonic acne

It is characterized by the presence of open comedones, classic black dots. Closed comedones with a barely noticeable hole are also observed, which are elements of 1 to 3 mm. diameter, white surface, covered by epidermis. Both lesions form the basis of acne, from which subsequent inflammatory phenomena occur.

Acne Papule - Pustular

It is characterized by the presence of papules, from 1 to 5 mm. in diameter, red and pustules.

pustular acne photo laser treatment argentina

Cystic acne

Se observan nódulos que son lesiones inflamatorias de más de 5 mm. de diámetro y quistes. Los nódulos se conforman cuando la inflamación ocurre en un nivel más profundo e involucra varios folículos pilosos. These tend to leave scars.

Causes

The pilosebaceous unit is made up of the hair follicle and the gland (Figure 1). Acne is caused by obstruction of the Pilosebaceous unit. This obstruction retains sebum produced by the sebaceous gland and keratinized cells of the hair follicle. Excess sebum production usually begins around

FIGURE 1 - Diagram of the pilosebaceous unit

the nine years of age stimulated by a greater production of adrenal androgens, and is accompanied by a higher rate of desquamation of the squamous epithelium that covers the interior of the follicle. In this way, the follicular ostium (the entrance of the follicle) is obstructed first microscopically (microcomedón).
As sebum production continues, the follicle widens until it forms the basic acne lesion: the comedone. The oxidation of the fat that makes up the comedo darkens it, acquiring the usual appearance of the "black spot".
If the broadening of the follicular ostium is proportionally less than the broadening of the interior of the follicle, the plug is not visible and the lesion is visualized on the skin as a "white point".

1. This obstruction favors the proliferation of the bacterium Propionibacterium acnes, which contributes to trigger the inflammatory process of the tissues involved, mediated by immune cells: CD4 T lymphocytes and neutrophils, which infiltrate the area and cause disruption of the follicular wall , causing the content of the follicle (lipids, cellular components and bacteria) to spread to the surrounding dermis.

2. The composition of the sebum, which contains a large amount of free fatty acids, together with keratin, contribute to the inflammatory process.

3. The local inflammatory response is accentuated with the mediators released in this process: cytokines, peptides and others, causing the appearance of papules. Greater inflammation leads to the formation of pustules, and its extension leads to the formation of cysts.

FIGURE 3 - Lotus II. Zoom handpiece. 2mm spot

4. The nodules form when the inflammation occurs at a deeper level and involves several hair follicles. These tend to leave scars.

Is the Lotus II Laser effective on all types of acne?

In cystic and pustular acne, a 1 to 2 mm zoom handpiece is used first, with which all cysts and / or pustules are perforated. This facilitates the drainage of the content, generating a bactericidal effect and allowing the penetration of drugs. Figure 4 shows the effect of the Lotus II with a 2mm zoom handpiece. You can see in the central and lower part of the sample, the absence of tissue produced by laser drilling and the collagen contraction around it.

FIGURE 4 - Lotus II. Zoom handpiece. 2mm spot

These Histopathological studies were carried out by Dr. Cristina Corbella, Dermatopathologist. This treatment is fast, painless and with quick recovery. It has no contraindications or adverse effects. Its application hardly produces a slight redness and does not leave inflammations or bruises. The patient withdraws as soon as the session ends, allowing his immediate social and occupational reintegration. These treatments can be performed throughout the year, even in summer, with the sole precaution of adequate photoprotection.
Another technology that is revolutionizing the treatment of acute acne is the Scarlet, novel radio frequency with micro needles.
