1. GETTING TO THE CORE OF EMSCULPT NEO

Welcome to the future of muscle toning and fat burning outside the gym. EmSculpt NEO is a brand-new technology that combines wellness and aesthetic benefits. Moreover, with EmSculpt NEO treatment you can improve your appearance and quality of life. Talking about returning your confidence! The long-desired body shape can finally become reality. With EmSculpt NEO you can get rid of stubborn fat pockets on different parts of your body and build, firm and tone your muscles.

The potential of EmSculpt NEO is huge. Let’s face it. Working in the gym can really pay off and improve your general health and appearance, but some issues sometimes simply can’t be resolved by strenuous exercise or proper nutrition habits.

EmSculpt NEO is a true rescuer – non-invasive, exercise-free muscle building and fat burning in just 30 minutes per session.

Doesn’t this sound great? Compare weeks of doing crunches and sit-ups to this safe, fast and effective treatment.

WHAT ABOUT THE RESULTS?

Well, the results are of course the reason why this treatment is so amazing. After the first course of sessions, you can see the first results – the treated area is more toned and smoother than before. The muscles feel a bit stronger. After the final session, which is usually the fourth one the real magic happens. That’s the time when the best results start to become visible. They gradually develop and after three months they are fully seen. The treated areas are shaped, defined and contoured.

Regarding fat loss, your body needs about 12 weeks to completely eliminate damaged fat cells. This is a part of the natural metabolic process, so it needs a bit of time to finish. But it’s so worthwhile. The treated body parts are slimmer and smoother.

On average, with EmSculpt NEO treatments you can build 25% more muscle mass and reduce 30% of fat – these numbers can’t be neglected. So, are you frustrated with some areas of your body that simply don’t respond to workouts or diet? Then EmSculpt NEO is a true rescuer here.

You must agree that EmSculpt NEO is mind blowing in terms of making you look better and feel stronger.

EmSculpt NEO treatment goes way beyond hear-say tales and before and after pictures. It represents a brilliant example of a treatment that has science behind it, a lot of demonstration to prove its safety and efficacy. EmSculpt NEO treatment will surely remain ahead of its competition for a long time.

2. HIFEM + AND RF – THE SYNERGY OF TWO POWERFUL ENERGIES

Even though EmSculpt NEO is a pretty straightforward treatment, there are two very important and scientifically backed up effects that happen during it. You can feel the energies, but what exactly are they?

Let’s find out.

WHAT IS HIFEM+ ENERGY?

HIFEM+ stands for high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology. It represents an innovative approach in aesthetic treatments because:

EmSculpt  NEO is the first treatment where this kind of energy is used to tighten and  tone your muscles and at the same time eliminate unwanted fat.

The mechanism of this energy affects both muscles and fat cells non-invasively and safely.

HIFEM+ energy targets skeletal muscles and causes supramaximal contractions. These contractions are super strong and bigger than the highest amount of tension your muscles can employ under normal circumstances. In other words, they are much much higher than your maximal voluntary muscle contractions.

When HIFEM+ energy is used to treat abdominal muscles during EmSculpt NEO treatment it actually causes all skeletal muscles to contract at the same time. These muscles are the rectus abdominis, the transverse abdominis, and the obliques.

If this sounds too Latin here is an explanation.

The rectus abdominis muscles are also called abs and lower abdominals. There is a pair of them and they stretch vertically on both sides of the anterior abdominal wall. So, they are two parallel muscles and they are separated by a connective tissue formed in a midline band.

Transversus abdominis is the deepest abdominal muscle and it stabilizes the lumbar spine and pelvis before you want to move your arms and legs.

The obliques represent two muscles -external and internal obliques. They run on the sides of six-pack muscles from the hips to the rib cage.

So, during the EmSculpt NEO, you feel how these muscle groups are contracting, but you don’t feel any discomfort.

EMSCULPT NEO CAN HELP WITH DIASTASIS RECTI OR MUSCLE SEPARATION

This condition might sound a bit strange but it is actually quite common. It is a separation of six-pack muscles that join at the midline of your abdomen. It can be partial or complete and it can occur during and after pregnancy. Many women experience this condition simply because the uterus must stretch the muscles in the abdomen to make more room for the baby. It’s all in nature. According to one study, almost 60% of women have this condition during or post-pregnancy.

Of course, this condition is not just limited to women. Men can also experience it because of the incorrect lifting of heavyweights, or too many abdominal exercises that are done in an unsafe way.

So, when these muscles separate it is almost impossible to tighten them with regular exercise. EmSculpt NEO treatment comes to the rescue here with its HIFEM+ energy.

HOW DOES EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT HELP WITH MUSCLE SEPARATION?

As we already mentioned, during EmSculpt NEO treatment, HIFEM+ energy induces almost 20thousand muscle contractions in one session that lasts for 30 minutes. This number of contractions is not possible to achieve voluntarily, but the muscle tissue must adapt to this so-called stress and the final result is muscle growth.

HIFEM technology works by using alternating magnetic fields and induces these super-strong muscle contractions. This happens through the stimulation of nerve pathways but it doesn’t significantly raise the temperature. These muscle contractions or supramaximal contractions happen because of specific stimulation frequencies and patterns. These contractions are constantly repeated and they stimulate tissue healing – this actually makes your muscles bigger because the muscle fibers increase.

After 4 treatment sessions, the muscle separation can be reduced by 10%, which you must agree is super awesome for your abs, since we said that it is almost impossible to achieve this with regular exercise.

‍During 3 months after the last session, the general appearance of muscles continues to improve so we can conclude that the results of EmSculpt NEO treatments are long-lasting.

RF AND HIFEM+ ENERGIES DO WONDERS TOGETHER

Apart from working amazingly on muscle building and the reduction of muscle separation, EmSculpt NEO targets fat cells and causes their elimination. That’s one of the reasons why this treatment is one of a kind – these energies work simultaneously as a perfectly programmed mechanism. RF energy heats the tissues and makes the HIFEM+ energy even more effective when inducing muscle contractions. The results are so much better than when the energies are used separately.

Basically, RF heating that happens while HIFEM+ makes the muscle contract, activates the proteins that stimulate muscle synthesis and boosts the hypertrophic effect.

Hypertrophy is just another term for muscle increase and it happens when you work out. Especially when you lift weights. So, during this treatment, you are building your muscles, but without a lot of sweat and effort.

On the other hand, RF also heats the fat tissue and leads to the elimination of fat cells while at the same time it is supported by a boosted metabolic activity because of HIFEM+ contractions.

The brilliancy of the combination of these two energies lies in their extensive use in aesthetic medicine for body contouring. EmSculpt NEO treatment can be used for fat cells elimination, skin tightening and cellulite reduction. RF energy works by elevating the temperature and selective transforming radiofrequency into heat in treated tissues. This selective heating can be achieved by specific frequencies of the RF spectrum.

EmSculpt NEO treatment combines Synchronized RF and HIFEM+ through a dual applicator. During the treatment, RF boosts local blood flow and brings the heat to the underlying tissue and HIFEM+ makes the muscles contract. And there is the secret – the RF heating supports the HIFEM+ effect on muscles and HIFEM+ boosts the RF effect on fat tissue. Final verdict- fat out, muscles in.

3. HOW DOES EMSCULPT NEO DESTROY THE UNWANTED FAT CELLS?

So, we have established that EmSculpt NEO treatment affects fat cells and can reduce the unwanted fat pockets. Let’s discuss this in more detail.

The treatment actually affects adipose tissue or more colloquially called body fat. Fat cells can be found all around your body – under the skin or subcutaneous fat, between your muscles and other places. Women usually store unwanted subcutaneous fat within the thighs and buttocks. Here is where EmSculpt NEO comes in handy and works like a charm. It can greatly reduce the subcutaneous fat in these areas.

Anyway, EmSculpt NEO applies dual-energy and evenly heats the adipose tissue fat. The temperature goes way beyond normal levels or levels that your body can normally take. It heats the tissue between 43 to 45 degrees. It reaches this temperature in about 4 minutes but it doesn’t harm the surface of your skin or epidermal level. This elevation in temperature is beneficial for fat reduction in two different ways.

First, the temperature increases blood circulation and speeds up your metabolism. Then the lipids that are present in fat cells or triglycerides break down or get hydrolyzed into glycerol and free fatty acids. These two products are slowly and of course without any damage to the surrounding tissue released into your bloodstream. So, the affected fat cells get smaller. And when HIFEM+ energy kicks in this process is even more boosted. Intense muscle work brings a lot of energy to your body and this increases your metabolism even further.

The combination of HIFEM+ and RF  energies is the key to success – the fat cells break down faster.

The second way that the temperature affects fat cells is that when the temperature is sustained for a longer period of time fat cells lose their cellular integrity and some of them enter the apoptotic process – the process of natural cell death. They have no chance against the temperature of 43 degrees and get permanently destroyed. So, the fat cells that enter this process lose their membrane integrity and are digested by cells that clear the destroyed cells and the debris in order to keep the tissue homeostasis or its balance.

So fat cells shrink, flatten and their membrane breaks down. The content that is found inside the fat cells leads to a 33% decrease in their size.

STUDIES THAT SHOW EMSCULPT NEO IS SUPER EFFICIENT IN FAT REDUCTION

Of course, there were several studies that show that the advanced technology behind EmSculpt NEO treatment really works like a charm in eliminating fat cells. Here are some of the findings.

One study that was actually submitted to the FDA before this treatment was cleared involved 42people. With ultrasound imaging, it was shown that abdominal fat reduced by almost 30% in three months after the last treatment session.

The second study also proved that there was a reduction in fat again by 30% three months after the last treatment. Here ultrasonographic examination was used to back up the findings.

The third study also had the same results – a reduction in abdominal fat by 30% three months after the last EmSculpt NEO treatment session. In this study, magnetic resonance imaging or MRI was used to gather the results.

So, as you can see all studies had similar results and proved that this dual-energy treatment is really efficient in fat reduction. During EmSculpt NEO treatment muscle contractions are something like a massage and together with faster blood flow, they help distribute the heat evenly across the whole targeted area.

Let’s find out now how muscles are built during the EmSculpt NEO treatment.

Read the following chapter

‍

4. WHAT IS THE STORY BEHIND BUILDING MUSCLES?

Now that we covered how EmSculpt NEO treatment works for fat cells elimination let’s turn to muscle building – the other advantage of this powerful procedure.

Apart from heating fat cells during EmSculpt NEO treatment, two accompanying processes affect muscle tissues. Muscles don’t keep the same temperature because they are highly thermally conductive. On the other hand, fat has lower thermal conductivity and can keep high temperatures. During the treatment, muscles are heated to 40 degrees because of the heat produced during supramaximal contraction, the heat that is directly produced by RF and the heat that spreads from the fat tissue next to the muscles.

Muscles reach the temperature of 40 degrees in the first 2 minutes and keep it during the treatment. It is a safe temperature level and it doesn’t harm muscle tissue. We all know that physiologically speaking, heating muscles is very beneficial. Remember working out for example in the gym? You always warm up first because you don’t want to injure your muscles before strenuous weightlifting or other exercises.

So, heating the muscle tissue during contractions can really boost the muscle response. When muscles are heated the blood flow increases and delivers more oxygen and other nutrients to the muscles fibers that are contracting.

The more oxygen and nutrients your muscles get the more they grow. They promote an anabolic process that regenerates the muscle fibers faster and makes the muscles grow. Faster blood circulation also increases faster toxic waste disposal like carbonic or lactic acid. These acids are unnecessary products of your metabolic processes that give you energy for your muscles while your muscles work intensively. When you have high amounts of these acids in your tissues, your muscles get sore and you feel tired.

When you flush out this waste faster your muscles aren’t so sore and you don’t feel fatigued. What’s more, when your muscles get heated during the treatment you feel better, stronger, less tired than when you exercise and contract your muscles in the gym. So, heating your muscles during the EmSculpt NEO gets the treatment more effective and you don’t feel as tired afterward.

Simultaneous delivery of RF and HIFEM+ energies enhance the muscle contractions and muscles strongly respond. During the treatment, muscle fibers get stretched brilliant and relaxed the same way when you exercise in the gym but the effect is much much more. These strong contractions actually make micro-ruptures in muscle fibers. So, your signaling molecules are released and start regenerating and growing your muscles. Your muscles get stronger.

One of those signaling molecules are heat shock proteins (HSP) that promote muscle protein synthesis and build your muscles.

STUDIES SAY IT ALL

The studies that were conducted to experiment on the dual-energy technology of EmSculpt NEO showed that muscle hypertrophy is much more powerful than when individual energies are applied. You could think that individual application of HIFEM and RF energies would have a similar effect as the simultaneous application. But, actually it’s not true. You see, your muscle tissue is rich in blood vessels and loses the proper heat that is accumulated when the temperature goes beyond the blood temperature which is about 37 degrees. So, without the constant heat delivery, there is no way you can keep the right therapeutic temperature in the treated tissue. So, without the combination of these two energies, you don’t get the same powerful effect on muscle building.

To conclude this chapter with a number – the average growth in muscle tissue can be around 24 to 26% with the EmSculpt NEO treatment, while without the heating it is just 16%.

5. HOW CAN YOU BENEFIT FROM EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT?

Let’s get something straight right away – EmSculpt NEO isn’t a weight-loss treatment.

It is ideal for people with a BMI of up to 35, which is higher than some other non-surgical body sculpting treatments. So, if you are generally in a good shape and you have proper eating habits EmSculpt NEO is an ideal solution for you. It will solve the issues of individual body areas that never seem to get the message and get into shape no matter how much you are trying. Those parts are just immune to dieting or exercising. So how does that make you feel? Well of course frustrated.

Let’s discuss how EmSculpt can help you feel and look better.

First, how do you calculate your BMI?

It’s simple. Body mass index is a calculation of your weight and height. The formula is kg/m2 – kg is your weight and m2 is height in square meters. However, this is just a number. It doesn’t take into account if the weight is carried as fat or muscles. The point is, before EmSculpt NEO treatment you are consulted with the therapist who will determine for sure if this treatment is the right choice for you.

Anyway, EmSculpt NEO has an advanced applicator system, so it can help you get rid of stubborn fat pockets and get your muscles more defined on different body areas. EmSculpt NEO can:

●     Improve your core strength

●     Flatten your abdomen

●     Enhance your calves

●     Add definition to your biceps and triceps

●     Reduce fat and build muscles in your thighs

Let’s cover all body parts individually and see how EmSculpt NEO can shape them.

EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT FOR THE ABDOMEN

The muscles on our abdomen attract a lot of attention. Medically speaking they are important because they hold in our organs. Also, they keep our posture engaged and in a proper position.

Aesthetically speaking abdomen muscles are always the source of improvement. You have six-packs, eight packs, on one side and flab on the other. No matter how you try to get your abs ripped they will never look attractive if you have a layer of fat wrapped over them.

Well, this is where EmSculpt NEO works like a charm. As this treatment mimics 20000 muscle contractions there is no way that after 4 sessions your abdominal muscles won’t look more defined, and your stomach will look flatter. As we said before, the unwanted fat cells are destroyed forever. With a proper fitness regime, you can keep those defined abs looking awesome.

EmSculpt NEO gives you a little push and provides you with the desired abs appearance. The rest is up to you – proper diet and regular exercise will help you enjoy your abs for along period of time.

EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT FOR ARMS

You’ve probably admired photos of bodybuilders and thought how well their arms are sculpted. So, you dedicate hours and hours in the gym, doing exercises like free weights, plank position, shoulder press, bicep curl, triceps kickback -and nothing! You just can’t sculpt your upper arm area the way you want to. Well, you are not the only one. Talking anatomically, biceps and triceps are the major upper arm muscles. And like all muscles, they are not immune to excess subcutaneous tissue or fat.

However, with EmSculpt NEO treatments your upper arm muscles – biceps and triceps can get more defined.

The fat layers that are deeper are totally susceptible to change, and with this treatment, you can influence the way your arms look – you can get them better sculpted, and defined.

EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT FOR LEGS- THIGHS AND CALVES

I m sure you know the drill for leg muscles toning – lunges, step-ups, heel raisers, squats and other exercises. You can do this all day long but you just can’t make your legs contour as you want to. There are some obstacles that you simply can’t overcome like genetics or body fat that seems to feel quite comfortable in these body areas. You end up feeling frustrated because you can’t get rid of this stored fat.

Usually, when we talk about nicely shaped legs we think of thighs. Unfortunately, a large amount of fat tissue tends to accumulate in this area, especially in the outer thighs. Both men and women can have these problems and desire tighter and more toned legs.

So once more EmSculpt NEO treatment comes as a rescuer here. It can refine, define and sculpt your legs and improve their overall appearance and also overall body appearance.

Moreover, EmSculpt treatment can boost the appearance of muscles on calves and eliminate the fat that can accumulate in these parts of the legs as well.

EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT FOR BUTTOCKS

How do you feel about getting stronger, tighter and more-defined buttocks? Faster than working out in the gym? EmSculptNEO can increase strength and muscle definition in your buttocks and sculpt it o that you can finally be satisfied with your silhouette. The treatment is an awesome non-surgical option for buttocks lift. It requires no downtime and no taking time off.

During the treatment, your glutes work out intensely while you relax, read a book or work on your laptop.

It takes only 30 minutes per session to make your buttocks better shaped. After 4 sessions you will enjoy perky, round and firmer buttocks. The final effect is visible two months after the last session.

EMSCULPT NEO CAN IMPROVE YOUR CORE STRENGTH

This fact is what makes EmSculpt NEO an awesome treatment. This is where its general brilliancy lies. After 4-6 treatment sessions, you feel improvement in stamina and strength. This seems to appear as if from nowhere but you can definitely attribute it to the treatments.

Aesthetically speaking, your waistline gets slimmer, your abs are more defined, your stomach is flatter, your arms are more toned and your legs are better contoured. You feel great and you look awesome – how brilliant is that

So, before EmSculpt treatment was introduced, it was unimaginable to address both fat and muscles in a non-invasive way. They were treated separately.

EmSculpt  NEO is the first-ever technology that brings two different energies to the  same targeting body area.

This truly is a breakthrough in non-surgical body contouring treatments that can build muscles and burn fat in various patients – from athletes to sedentary individuals. EmSculpt NEO is superior to any other standalone treatment system. It is faster, more effective and safer.

EmSculptNEO has a huge potential. It is a hassle-free treatment; it doesn’t require recovery time and it’s remarkably efficient. You don’t need to follow strict pre-or post-treatment protocols, and you feel no pain. You just come to the clinic, have a consultation, get a problematic area treated and continue with your daily activities. It’s that simple.

You just feel as if you exercised a bit more extensively. That’s all.

6.  INTRODUCING COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT

What an awesome name don’t you think? What is so cool about this treatment besides its name? Well, it eliminates the stubborn fat cells that linger underneath your skin and simply won’t go away no matter how much you exercise. But, with CoolSculpting this problem can be easily solved because it freezes the fat cells and destroys them permanently.

Let’s dive deeper.

FREEZE AWAY UNWANTED FAT

How can you freeze away fat cells? What temperature is necessary for that to happen? Those are perhaps the first questions that pop inside your mind when you hear this.

Generally, the level of fat cells stays the same even if we gain or lose weight. They just shrink when you lose a few pounds and expend when you gain weight (for example after the Christmas feast). But the problem is they never go away. It can be also because of mother nature, genetics, gravity – you name it. But fat bulges simply stick out from different body areas. But these fat bulges are not resistant to CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting treatment does exactly what you wish for – it removes fat cells from your body. But of course, in a non-surgical way.

During the CoolSculpting treatment, the fat cells are carefully cooled with precision – the surrounding skin or other tissue is left unharmed. This happens because fat is very sensitive to a certain temperature and it freezes. This is not the case with the other tissues – they aren’t affected by the low temperature and stay unharmed. The fat cells that are targeted with low temperatures crystallize and gradually die. As your body has its natural metabolism processes for flushing away all undesired products, it eliminates these dead fat cells. After weeks and months following the treatment, these dead cells are washed away and the remaining ones get smaller and reduce the layer of fat. And what do you get as a result? A more sculpted body.

Let’s get a bit more scientific and explain this fat-freezing business.

‍

7. THE SCIENCE OF FAT FREEZING – CRYOLIPOLYSIS

Okay, you are sure thinking that this sounds too good to be true. However, CoolSculpting actually works. It’s all backed up by science which we can’t escape. Cryolipolysis definitely sounds too scientific, but it is actually a process of freezing and removing fat cells.

The name says it all. Cryo-cold, lipo-fat, lysis-cell death and elimination. There you go, now you understand what the word means.

During the CoolSculpting treatment, stubborn  fat pockets are exposed to controlled cooling.

The unwanted underlying fat is frozen, but the overlying skin and the tissue around are not harmed. The fat cells crystalize and rupture or break. The cells undergo the process of apoptosis, which is actually their biological death and removal. In the months that follow, your lymphatic system collects these destroyed fat cells and removes them from your body. When these destroyed fat cells are out from your body, they can’t grow back – your body doesn’t create more fat cells. The plus for CoolSculpting treatment – it provides long-lasting results.

This controlled application of cooling involves the temperature of -4 degrees for approximately 35 minutes per applicator depending on the size of the area you are treating with CoolSculpting. This temperature and this amount of time don’t cause the appearance of frostbites. Fat cells get damaged by this cooling but the skin cells don’t. The fat gets cooled below body temperature but above freezing of course. This temperature is only applicable to fat bulges.

CoolSculpting treatment leaves the surrounding tissue and the  top layer of the skin unharmed.

Coolsculptingcan reduce up to 25% of fat cells. The best part – the results are long-lasting and look completely natural. What more could you wish for? The treatment is minimally uncomfortable, you get rid of unwanted fat bulges, your body looks better sculpted and you achieve all this in a few months after the treatment.

CRYOLIPOLYSIS IS NOT INTENDED FOR WEIGHT LOSS

It’s very important to keep this in mind. Cryolipolys is is not used for fat loss. If you are already close to your ideal body weight but you struggle with stubborn pinchable fat pockets that just won’t go away, then you are an ideal candidate for CoolSculpting treatment. CoolSculpting effectively treats subcutaneous fat and can help you to fit into your favorite pair of jeans.

8. WHAT BODY AREAS CAN COOLSCULPTING ADDRESS?

The fact that the CoolSculpting treatment is FDA approved is pretty important. This means that it can be safely used to treat visible fat pockets in the thighs, abdomen, love handles, along the bra line, upper arm, submental area and underneath the buttocks. Visible means that you can pinch it. Let’s describe in more detail how CoolSculpting works in these body areas.

But first, let’s name the body parts that CoolSculpting treatment can address: 

• Stomach and Abdomen
• Inner and Outer Thighs
• Upper Arms
• Love Handles and Flanks
• Back and Bra Area 
• Under Buttocks (Banana Roll)
• Double Chin
• Male Chest (Pseudogynecomastia)

The fact that CoolSculpting treatment involves using various applicators is mind blowing. Depending on the body area you have problems with, the CoolSculpting therapistcan use a specific applicator to treat that area. This way you can get a fully customized treatment and of course amazing results. These applicators target fat deposits precisely where you want them.

• CoolAdvantage applicator – this one is used on the waist, hips and abdomen. It can cover larger body areas.
• CoolSmooth applicator – this one is flat and without the suction part. It is used for targeting fat on outer thighs for example, or any other area where applicators with suction parts can’t reach it.
• CoolMini – this one is used for contouring the chin, so it reduces the appearance of the double chin and also improves skin elasticity.
• CoolAdvantage Petite – this applicator is used for contouring arms, bra live, back and banana rolls.

Let’s talk about how CoolSculpting can reduce fat in different body areas.

COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT FOR THIGHS

You can reduce fat cells in both inner and outer thigh areas with this treatment. It is minimally uncomfortable and requires minimal to no downtime.

For many females, these visible fat bulges are an unattractive and frustrating nuisance and most women have difficulties in achieving the ideally sculpted thighs. This fat is also called sex-specific fat because estrogen somehow draws more fat into thighs and buttocks and these fat reserves prepare women for pregnancy and breastfeeding. Again, it’s all in nature.

The fat on the thighs and buttocks is a hormone-influenced fat and therefore it is almost impossible to get rid of it. When you exercise or diet you can’t affect the exact spot and reduce fat in just that area. So, you are stuck with this stubborn fat.

However, CoolSculpting can target specifically the fat on thighs and reduce it without much fuss and without invasive treatments. Also, the recovery time is non-existent.

So, a CoolSculpting applicator called CoolSmooth helps women sculpt their outer thighs also known as saddlebags (pretty nasty name). This applicator can reduce external thigh fat and it doesn’t work as a vacuum. It just cools hard or non-pinchable fat located on the outer thighs. You can achieve noticeable fat reduction with this applicator in just one treatment session.

If n the other hand, you want to reduce inner thigh jiggling or get the so-called thigh gap, the CoolFit applicator is your choice here. It reduces fat cells in this problematic body area. This applicator consists of a flat vacuum cap and a big cooling plate. As inner thighs are a bit difficult to reach the treatment area, this applicator is a perfect solution because of its unique design. According to different studies, 85% of patients were able to notice the fat reduction after a single treatment session.

More than  90% of patients loved the results.

So, as you can see, numbers say it all. However, we should always keep in mind that we are all different and have different bodies. Therefore, the results may vary from patient to patient, and we should always have realistic expectations. That’s why this treatment must be performed with a certified therapist who can explain everything regarding the procedure and actually determine if we are the right candidate for this treatment.

COOLSCULPTING REATMENT FOR UPPER ARMS

If you have stored fat deposits in the upper arm area CoolSculpting is an awesome way to melt these deposits. Since it is FDA approved, CoolSculpting is a perfectly safe treatment for reducing unwanted fat in areas that can’t be shaped with exercise or a strict diet. This treatment can be done the same day you come for your consultations, it requires no anesthesia and minimal to no downtime.  If you are struggling to sculpt your upper arms, continue to read.

WHY IS IT HARD TO ELIMINATE FAT FROM THE UPPER ARM AREA?

Again, there are few factors that contribute to jiggling arms or chicken wings. Those factors can be age, genetics or hormonal changes especially with the female part of the population. Fat tends to accumulate in the upper arm area, as it does in the thighs and hips. We can blame biology but these areas are well-known for resisting fat burning with exercise and diet. Women usually have problems with the nasty chicken wings and can’t reduce fat in the upper arms so easily.

Men are not excluded from experiencing unwanted saggy skin in their arms and have difficulties in trying to sculpt them and getting rid of undesired fat bulges. So, as you can see, CoolSculpting can really help you achieve more sculpted and leaner upper arms no matter if you are a man or a woman.

WHAT DOES THE COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT FOR THE UPPER ARMS LOOK LIKE?

As we’ve already mentioned, during this treatment the controlled cooling technology – cryolipolysis is applied to your upper arm area. With the specially designed applicator, the stubborn fat cells get frozen. Every treatment session lasts for about 35 minutes. As the treatment is non-invasive and only mildly uncomfortable there is no need for downtime. You can continue with your daily routine right after the treatment.

You will  notice the fat reduction results in three months.

As your body needs more time to flush away the fat cells that have been damaged, you can see the best results after three months. Generally, the flushing away process lasts for 6 months.

Another thing that makes CoolSculpting a ‘cool’ treatment is that you don’t need to have countless treatment sessions to achieve the best results. Most patients only need 1 to 3 sessions to successfully eliminate stubborn fat deposits.

 COOLSCULPTING TREATMENTS FOR LOVE HANDLES – FLANKS

Why can’t I lose love handles no matter how much I exercise? I’m sure you’ve asked yourself this question thousands of times while you were looking in the mirror at these unattractive bulges of fat on your waist. Because, let’s be honest –except for its endearing name, there is nothing else that love handles can serve for. Then you search for the solution on the internet and find tons of different solutions for this problem. Pretty soon you realize that most of the solutions don’t work. But maybe if you understand the physiology of love handles, you will realize that one of the best solutions is CoolSculpting treatment.

SO, WHY ARE LOVE HANDLES UNWILLING TO DISAPPEAR?

And once more we must blame biology for this. You see, fat deposits are created differently, depending on the body area. Some areas of your body tend to hold on to weight more than others. So those fat bulges that refuse to go away no matter how much you exercise or keep a strict diet, are there because of nature.

Love handles have a really bad reputation when talking about losing them – it’s virtually impossible to accomplish that. Again, a lot of factors contribute to this like gender, genetics, age and hormones.

Men are also prone to struggling with love handles as well as women, maybe even more. Testosterone is the major culprit here – it just tells the body to keep extra fat in the midsection. So, men get unattractive belly fat and also love handles.

On the other hand, estrogen in women tells the body to keep the extra fat in the lower area of the body – hips, thighs and buttocks. These are the most usual places where women struggle to reduce fat.

So, to conclude – since love handles are genetically and biologically influenced, they are already predisposed to stick to the body.

HOW TO GET RID OF LOVE HANDLES

CoolSculpting comes as a rescuer here again, because if all other methods fail, this treatment could do the trick. It can drastically reduce fat in this area. It will eliminate the fat cells that are so stubborn and won’t go away. Just keep in mind that CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss treatment. So, if having flanks is your only problem then CoolSculpting will work for you. This fat reduction treatment destroys the fat cells and once they have flushed away from your body, they of course can’t grow back.

You can achieve the desired results – a nicely  sculpted waist in two to three treatment sessions.

But this doesn’t mean that you should change your fitness regime or even worse stop with it. CoolSculpting will bring you a nicely shaped waist but in order to keep the results, you should continue exercising.

COOLSCULPTING FOR UNDERNEATH THE BUTTOCKS – BANANA ROLLS

As you get older, unwanted fat deposits can form under the buttocks. These fat deposits are also known as a banana roll -but there is nothing sweet about this roll. It is absolutely immune to exercise and a strict diet. It simply won’t go away no matter how much you try. You end up feeling frustrated with a bumpy and uneven look of your upper thighs under the buttocks. But, CoolSculpting treatment can be your hero once again – it effectively treats the bulges of fat on this area of your body. After the treatment, this area is better shaped and smoother and looks slimmer.

During the treatment, a special applicator is used to reduce fat deposits under the buttocks. As with any other treatment area, the applicator exposes the fat cells to constantly cold temperatures. The suction part of the applicator draws the undesired fat up to the surface of the skin and treats it as we said with cold temperature.

Banana roll is out after the treatment. You might need more sessions to accomplish the desired results – usually 2 to 3.After the last treatment session, and after all the damaged fat cells are eliminated from your body, you get slimmer upper thighs and defined buttocks.

COOLSCULPTING FOR ABDOMEN/ STOMACH

A lot of people fear the spare tire or muffin top – The not so endearing nicknames for belly fat. This is because your body stores fat in this area – and again we can’t do anything about it. So, CoolSculpting treatment is perhaps the most popular for targeting this area of the body. You might tell yourself – I don’t want to have my belly hang over my pants anymore. Of course, you want your favorite pair of jeans to fit you better. Getting a smoother stomach would also make you more confident –let’s not forget about that.

You can achieve the desired  look – a slimmer abdomen in two sessions.

As we already said CoolSculpting is a safe FDA- approved treatment, but it is not for everybody. The ideal patients are people who are close to their ideal body weight but they are struggling to eliminate the fat on their stomach. You won’t lose weight with CoolSculpting but you will get rid of that stubborn fat that covers your stomach. If you have so-called pinchable fat on your abdomen then CoolSculpting can be effective at reducing it.

On the other hand, if the fat on your stomach is harder and can’t be moved easily, then CoolSculpting won’t be effective. So, as you can see, there are two types of fat and there is a huge difference between them. They are called subcutaneous and visceral fat.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUBCUTANEOUS AND VISCERAL FAT

We must get technical again here –but just a little. Visceral fat is deep in your body and it encircles your internal organs. It can be dangerous and can provoke some illnesses. It is harder and forms the so-called beer belly.

Subcutaneous fat lies just under the surface of your skin. This fat is the one that you can pinch with your fingers and this is the fat that can be effectively reduced with CoolSculpting. However, if this is more than 3 inches CoolSculpting can’t bring the desired results.

COOLSCULPTING FOR THE DOUBLE CHIN

Double chin is another area of the body that can be easily better-shaped with CoolSculpting treatment. More precisely the issue with double chin is something that can bother you because it is immune to exercise and diet. In the case of a double chin, storing fat in this area doesn’t have to be the single contributor. It can also occur because the skin loses its laxity and makes the double chin more prominent.

So double chin or turkey neck happens because of age, diet or genetics. It develops when a layer of fat creates just beneath your chin. And over time, this deposit of fat gives away to gravity and gradually starts to sag and hang.

HOW CAN YOU GET RID OF DOUBLE CHIN WITH COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT?

One awesome characteristic of CoolSculpting treatment is that it is so versatile. With the proper applicator, you can easily treat the under the chin fat. As before, it freezes fat cells that are the culprit for the appearance of a double chin and sagging skin on your neck. This applicator targets especially this area and effectively brings back the fine contour of your chin area.

CoolSculpting is a brilliant option for non-invasive double chin elimination.

CoolSculpting can reduce the fat layer by 25%  in your chin and improve your skin laxity as well.

You will be the best candidate for this treatment if you have a minor double chin and great laxity of your skin. CoolSculpting delivers the best results when addressing the layer of fat just underneath your chin. During your consultation, the licensed CoolSculpting therapist will determine how much fat you have in this area and tell you if this treatment is the right option for you.

A plus for CoolSculpting -you can get the desired results after just one or two treatment sessions.

COOLSCULPTING FOR BACK FAT

Another body area that can accumulate fat and make tight shirts or any shirt unfitting. Back fat tends to stick around no matter how much you exercise. Also, it has no boundaries – it

can hang around the lower area that extends from the love handles, on the sides

of the back, in the armpits or it can appear as a bra bulge. So, again you feel

frustrated because you simply can’t reduce or eliminate back fat. Nothing seems

to work. You invest hours and hours in the gym but when you look in the mirror the stubborn fat is still there. Why does backfat appear?

We’ve already said that you can store fat in any area of your body. When it comes to accumulating fat in your back there are a few factors that contribute to it like poor quality of sleep, age or hormonal changes.

But you don’t need to stress anymore – CoolSculpting will reduce back fat and reduce your stress.

Your clothes will fit better, back fat is the  thing of the past and bra bulge disappears. Let’s not forget – you will  return your confidence.

You can get the best results in just 1 or 2 treatment sessions.

You can treat back fat with CoolSculpting because this procedure is pretty straightforward. Of course ,you will first be examined by a CoolSculpting therapist who will determine if the nature of your excess fat tissue in this area is susceptible to CoolSculpting. Sometimes this excess tissue can be the result of lipoma and not fat. The same goes with the front bra bulge. This excess tissue can be glandular breast tissue and not fat. So, again you need to be examined before the treatment. Just to be sure that CoolSculpting will provide the desired results.

Now that we’ve covered all targeting body areas, let’s see what CoolSculpting can do for men.

Read the next chapter.

9. CAN COOLSCULPTING WORK FOR GENTS?

Of course, it can. A lot of people think that CoolSculpting treatments are just for women. But actually, men are more and more inclined to having CoolSculpting treatments although perhaps not in the same treatment areas. So, gentlemen, do you want to resolve the problems with excess fat? Read the following chapter.

Men realize as well as women that working out in the gym simply can’t help them get rid of unattractive fat bulges. CoolSculpting is a treatment that is really becoming popular with the male population and there is nothing wrong with that – everybody deserves to be happy and confident about their looks.

Body contouring provided with CoolSculpting treatment, offers men a chance to reduce unwanted deposits of fat in their chest, thighs and abdomen. They end up with better sculpted and leaner body shapes.

By eliminating unwanted and stubborn fat deposits on problematic body areas, men look more sculpted and give a different impression on professional or personal levels. Men became well aware that the bar has risen and they need to try to look their best.

WHAT PROBLEMATIC AREAS DO MEN ADDRESS WITH COOLSCULPTING?

As we said before, women mostly struggle with excess fat on their thighs, upper arms and buttocks. Men have slightly different issues – their most problematic body areas are the abdomen and chest or not so nicely called colloquially – man boobs.

WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF MAN BOOBS?

Gynecomastia is the actual technical term for man boobs. It is represented as enlarged or swollen breast tissue. This happens because of hormonal imbalances – too much estrogen and not enough testosterone for the right balance. So, as you can see, estrogen is not the hormone that is produced only by women. Men also have a small amount of it in their bodies, and also women have a bit of testosterone in their bodies. When the balance of hormones is regulated the level of estrogen in men doesn’t cause any changes in physical appearance.

The issue with gynecomastia is more embarrassing than a serious health problem. Men who struggle with it can have difficulties in dealing with it psychologically. Sometimes this issue resolves itself when levels of the hormones get back to normal. But sometimes the best solution is a non-invasive treatment like CoolSculpting.

One more thing, before men can undergo CoolSculpting to treat gynecomastia, consultations with the therapist is absolutely necessary. There are two types of this condition and only one can be treated by CoolSculpting.

TRUE AND PSEUDO GYNECOMASTIA

So, during your consultation, the therapist determines what type of gynecomastia you’re dealing with. The therapist examines the tissue on your chest and concludes whether it’s fatty (pseudo gynecomastia) or glandular (true gynecomastia). Of course, this examination is painless but necessary. If the excess tissue is fatty then you can schedule your CoolSculpting treatment. The results may vary and you need to be realistic with the expectations – it all depends on the level of subcutaneous fat and how thick is the fat layer.

So, ideally, you are close to your perfect weight and you have just this issue with your chest. Also, you exercise regularly and keep a balanced diet, and you want to maintain this lifestyle after the treatment. If that is the case, the results will be more than satisfactory.

We all have our trouble spots that simply won’t resolve no matter how much we try. We just can’t sculpt these body areas as we desire.

So, once again CoolSculpting can be an ally here. During the treatment, as stated before the fat cells underneath the skin are frozen and eventually eliminated from the body. When the fat cells that give you the appearance of man boobs are destroyed you end up with a nicely shaped and sculpted chest.

CoolSculpting treatment will bring you closer to the sculpted chest you’ve always desired.

Just keep in mind that maintaining the proper diet and fitness regime is important for keeping that ideally sculpted chest.

WHAT OTHER AREAS DO MEN ADDRESS WITH COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT?

Other than embarrassing fat tissue on your chest, you can also treat abs, love handles and double chin with CoolSculpting. You can reduce excess fat on these problematic areas non-surgically and with minimal to no downtime. We live in a busy world and if you don’t want to spend a lot of time recovering, CoolSculpting is perfect for you. You can come to the clinic, have a consultation, get treatment and go back to work – it’s that simple.

10. CAN COOLSCULPTING TIGHTEN THE SKIN?

We covered most of the benefits of CoolSculpting treatment, but there is an extra one – this treatment could make the skin in the treated area firmer and smoother.

This fact could be understood as a side effect of CoolSculpting treatment, but a good one. It treats the unwanted fat of different body areas and brings skin tightening effects. This happens because apparently, CoolSculpting could preserve the appearance and tone of the skin in targeted body areas.

 HOW IS THIS EXPLAINED?

When it comes to fat reduction treatments, like CoolSculpting, the skin must be able to spring back and fit the new, slimmer body contours. So, most patients who have done CoolSculpting treatments report that their skin has nicely contracted once they see the full results of the treatment. The treatment reduces the size of the fat bulge but does not increase skin laxity. Another plus for CoolSculpting treatment.

COOLSCULPTING COULD IMPROVE SKIN ELASTICITY AND FIRMNESS

Even though this theory hasn’t been approved yet, some patients claim that this treatment has improved their skin appearance and tone. After the treatment, the visible skin fold diminishes because the skin actually adopts a nicer and smoother contour. This extra benefit that CoolSculpting offers could be great for people who want to eliminate excess fat and have only a moderate amount of stretched skin. These patients may shy away from surgical treatments but would still like to tighten their skin and eliminate the extra fat layers. For instance, new moms who want to have more children could really benefit from CoolSculpting treatments. They could improve their contours fast, effectively and without having to take days off.

Another reason why CoolSculpting could contribute to skin tightening is that cold temperatures actually stimulate the skin to speed up collagen production. Collagen is a super important protein that keeps our skin elastic, but it diminishes as we grow older.

And finally, since after CoolSculpting treatment the fat loss is gradual and natural and lasts for 3 to 6months post-procedure. After this period of time, the best results of the treatment are actually noticed. So, during this time the skin can slowly and naturally adapt to a slimmer body shape.

So, apart from eliminating unwanted fat deposits, CoolSculpting could provide another ’cool’ benefit –skin tightening. This benefit is very important in the aesthetic world so let’s conclude that the future is bright for the CoolSculpting treatment.

That’s it. That’s everything we wanted to say about EmSculpt NEO and CoolSculpting treatments. We hope this was helpful. If you have additional questions, don’t shy away from asking. Or leave a comment.

I will tell you step-by-step how Lucia Clinic guided them on their journeys.

Deciding to do something for yourself is not always easy but when you do it you embark on a beautiful journey towards your better self. Change is always a positive thing especially when it comes to the world of aesthetic dermatology. In other words when you decide to keep your face and body in top shape or to deal with imperfections that have been bothering you for years. Whether wrinkles and fine lines are keeping you from enjoying your graceful aging or you have issues with stubborn cellulite dimples or pockets of fat that simply won’t go away, you start imagining how you would feel and look if you finally solved those concerns. And then you start looking for an aesthetic clinic that will help you to achieve your goals. You want the best for your skin, but you don’t know which clinic to choose when there are so many different experiences and different opinions. You browse through the internet and find yourself swarmed by a mass of treatments and procedures, clinics and aesthetic dermatologists. Which treatments are the best for you?

Well, don’t ask yourself that anymore. I am happy to present to you some of the patients from Lucia Clinic that got their questions answered and got their skin issues solved with the best possible results. I am going to tell you the main reasons why they chose Lucia Clinic. Their insights are so valuable. Their stories are true,first-hand experiences.

The main reason they chose Lucia Clinic is more than 10 years of experience in aesthetic dermatology, hospitality, a warm atmosphere and above all perfectionism when it comes to the results.

So, let’s meet some of the Lucia clinic’s clients straight away.

Iva S. decided to visit Lucia Clinic in search of a treatment that will refresh her look, make her skin look younger and reverse the early signs of aging. As a busy lady, she didn’t have time to undergo invasive treatments. She wanted to keep that fresh, youthful look for years to come. She already had a regular skincare routine, but she wanted to boost her results.

Iva wanted something simple, fast but above all effective to treat her face and help prevent the environmental effects on aging. And that’s exactly what she got at Lucia Clinic – Clear + Brilliant treatment that made her skin look gorgeous.

Caroline G. was looking for a clinic in Dubai that would take care of her skin in the long term. After visiting two clinics her path led her to Lucia Clinic and she knew right away that she was in good hands. She knew they would make her more beautiful. The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on her face was her major concern.

Botox treatments are not something you should deal with if you don’t trust your dermatologist. But Caroline knew that Lucia Clinic will take care of her in the best way. And she was right.

Ivana T. has been coming to Lucia Clinic for six years. She had some concerns on her face like sun damage, pigmentation and other discoloration of the skin tone. No matter which treatment she tried at Lucia Clinic these last six years she was more than satisfied with brilliant results. The last treatment she tried was AnteAGE Dermapen – and it went as usual – brilliant results and brilliant face.

Enisa B. is a young and beautiful woman who was always concerned about the way her lips looked. No matter what she did, she couldn’t achieve that plump look. That all changed when she discovered Lucia Clinic and tried lip fillers for the first time. She didn’t want an unnatural look and overly noticeable results. She just wanted her lips to look bigger, plumper and more rejuvenated. And that’s exactly what she got.

Sania Mirza, one of the best Indian tennis players in the world visited Lucia Clinic in search of a treatment that will hydrate her overly sun-exposed skin. Spending long time outdoors takes its toll on the skin and this remarkable lady was welcomed by Lucia Clinics doctors who helped her with some skin concerns. A basic Lucia’s facial did the trick for this awesome sportswoman and prepared her skin for the next tennis match in the hot sun.

Carolin D. was always struggling with skin imperfections, like inflammation, rosacea, broken capillaries, discoloration and others. Her problematic skin was brought to perfection at Lucia Clinic – AFT treatment brought that long-desired brilliance to her face.

Khaled A. is a busy young man, who wanted to be in trend but noticed something that started to bother him – his hair began to get thinner. Without losing his precious time, he arrived at Lucia Clinic in search of a treatment that will help him restore his hair volume and stimulate its natural growth again. A difficult task, you might think. But actually, this is exactly what he found at Lucia Clinic – the Acell + PRP treatment.

Leila A. is a young woman whose main concern was constant shaving, hair plucking, and expensive waxing. All she wanted to achieve was silky smooth skin. Don’t all girls want that? Is it possible to achieve this without pain, and a big amount of money? She found out that it is absolutely possible to achieve the desired smooth skin at Lucia Clinic with Soprano Ice laser hair reduction.

Sabrya A. was concerned about her face skin because it started to look saggy and loose in the lower area of her face. She wasn’t ready for a surgical procedure, she just wanted something simple and effective but non-invasive to treat her skin and rejuvenate it. Upon arriving at Lucia Clinic, she was very happy to meet with the doctors who found the perfect treatment for her problems – Ultherapy.

Jean Michel E. decided to make a big change for himself – he wanted to remove the tattoo on his arm. The tattoo was no longer as significant to him as before and he believed that it was possible to remove it with minimal pain and scars. He didn’t want to live with the unwanted ink on his skin and that was the moment he decided to visit Lucia Clinic and look for a laser treatment that will help him eliminate the old unwanted tattoo. Laser tattoo removal was exactly what he was looking for and he found it at Lucia Clinic.

‍Amir Khan, two-time World boxing champion, is already in perfect shape, but he still wasn’t satisfied with his muscle alignment – he wanted more definition to his abs. We all know that these muscles are a bit tricky to tone perfectly, and when we think perfect abs, we think six-packs. So, he came to Lucia Clinic and found the answer to his problem. EmSculpt NEO treatment woke up those abs and made Mr. Khan feel wonderful about it.

‍

LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND AND OPEN UP TO THE BRIGHT NEW FUTURE

You have probably thought about trying some aesthetic treatments, but you were reluctant because you were unsure about the results. You hear so many stories and get lost in amass of advice. You ask yourself – will I still look natural? Will I be able to keep my facial mimics after I do Botox? Do body sculpting treatments actually help with eliminating fat and building muscles? Will I be satisfied with the results? All these questions are totally legit. You are entitled to ask them. The Lucia Clinic’s patients asked themselves the same before they arrived for their first consultation. And after that everything was different. After that, the door of the bright new future was opened to them. And they felt and looked great. Why? Because they got exactly what they were looking for – amazing results and solutions to their facial and body concerns. What results did they achieve?

Let’s find out.

Iva did the Clear + Brilliant treatment and felt brilliant. She could see the positive results after three sessions. She will definitely return for the next session because keeping the results is the key when it comes to aesthetic dermatology. Iva noticed a clear improvement when it comes to the removal of dead skin cells and her skin was really glowing. Fine lines and wrinkles on her face were significantly reduced. Iva understood that Clear + Brilliant treatment gave her immediate results but also progressive ones. That’s what is brilliant about this procedure – it

continues to improve the skin on the face as the days pass. After some time, Iva’s skin felt softer, looked brighter and showed a more even tone. A natural look is something that comes slowly but brings satisfaction in the long run.

Lucia Clinic’s Clear &Brilliant treatment really offered her a solution she was looking for -youthful-looking, soft and supple skin, reduced pores and fine lines, improved skin tone and texture and overall radiance. Iva was more than satisfied with the decision to try Clear + Brilliant treatment because it helped her prevent early signs of aging and also to reduce the

environmental effects on her skin. We can’t escape the sun’s UV rays or avoid the air pollutants, but Iva found a solution – she can now keep her face stunning at any time of the year.

‍Caroline wanted to maintain the skin on her face youthful and fresh and decided to do Botox. Choosing Lucia Clinic to provide her with this service was the best decision she has ever made. The warmth and hospitality but above all the professionalism and expertise of Lucia’s Team was something she recognized right away – and something she fell in love with. Using Botox to prevent the appearance of deep wrinkles was something she achieved at Lucia Clinic. We all know that Botox should be performed by trained and expert dermatologists so Caroline was in good hands. Aesthetic doctor at Lucia Clinic injected Botox into her glabellar lines, horizontal lines on her forehead and in the outer corner of her eyes to treat crow’s feet. And voila! Her natural beauty was immediately enhanced and of course, she could still make the facial expressions that actually make her a beautiful individual. Fine lines were reduced and Botox provided a natural and subtle enhancement to her face. She found the best treatment to keep her face youthful and the best expert to provide her with the best results. “Now I have a place that really takes care of me and makes me beautiful”, this is how Caroline described her visit to Lucia Clinic.

Ivana wanted to try something new at Lucia Clinic, and as Lucia Team dermatologists are the only doctors she would trust with her skin concerns, Dermapen micro-needling with AnteAge treatment was something she chose to try. She achieved her wanted aesthetic results with this treatment that combines ultimate skin rejuvenation with stem cells growth factors. Ivana was more than surprised to see the initial results right after the first treatment -micro-wounds that she was concerned about started to heal immediately. Her skin looked smoother and more radiant. Since this treatment triggers the production of the new collagen, Ivana understood that the most dramatic results will be visible after a few weeks. Since this treatment is non-invasive it takes sometime to bring the best results. You can’t rush nature. The same applies here -you can’t rush collagen growth that in the end, when the process is finished will give a fresh, rejuvenated look to your skin. Ivana’s skin condition was overall improved in a fast and safe way. That’s all she wanted – improved skin and a natural-looking face.

Enisa’s main concern about Lip Fillers was to achieve natural-looking results. And that’s exactly what she got from Lucia Team – fuller and enhanced lips with gently enhanced structure. Nobody needs to know that you have lip fillers – your lips will look natural if the treatment is done professionally as in Lucia Clinic. After a single treatment, Enisa could see that her lips had better shape and restored volume. Enisa was more than happy with the results. She loved the way her lips looked after the treatment and she definitely found the perfect doctor at Lucia Clinic. The secret behind Enisa’s beautifully plump lips is that the fillers are actually hyaluronic acid fillers which made her lips look soft and natural. Hyaluronic acid is actually something that we already have in our bodies and that’s the fact that makes these lip fillers so effective in providing a natural appearance, but only when done by doctor who has excellent technique. Enisa improved the lips’ symmetry and defined the lip borders. Enisa’s doctor used HA lip fillers to precisely target the areas of her major concern and managed to provide her with the best results. “I am very happy with the results, as you can see, they look absolutely natural, who would know that I had lip fillers!” Her perfectly shaped lips now matched her face – she will definitely return for the next treatment as maintaining her natural-looking lips is something she wants to include in her aesthetic routine. 

Sania Mirza visited Lucia Clinic for the first time and was amazed by the results she got with Lucia’s Signature Facial. It was designed especially for her skin tone and texture and it met her aesthetic goals – refreshed and hydrated skin. Every skin is different so every Lucia’s facial is designed for each type of skin. Sania could instantly feel that her skin was refreshed and hydrated after the treatment was over. Her skin texture was improved and her complexion was brighter-looking. This facial was perfect for her because it provided her with immediate results with no irritations afterward or downtime. Sania had 3 facial sessions because she understood that it was important to maintain the results.  It prepared her skin for long tennis practices in the hot sun. When she takes a break from her busy life as a prominent tennis player, she will definitely return to Lucia Clinic to continue nourishing her skin.

Carolin arrived at Lucia Clinic for her second AFT treatment, and she could see a difference in her skin. It already looked much better after the first treatment. The inflammation she was struggling with was almost gone and her face appeared cleared and rejuvenated. She was amazed by the results because after the treatment her skin was smoother even though she understood that she needed more sessions to achieve the best results. IPL laser treatment was ideal for her skin’s imperfections because the laser light doesn’t damage the surface of the skin, but it is powerful enough to treat the targeted flaws. The AFT treatment transformed her patchy skin in a natural way – it was smooth, bright and had a more even complexion. The skin heals itself naturally, which takes a little time, but the final results are beyond imaginable. Carolin could really notice a significant and positive change in her skin. A natural way of restoring her perfect complexion – that’s all she wanted.

Khaled found a treatment for his hair thinning concern at Lucia Clinic that was beyond his expectations. His goals were to restore his hair in a fast and effective way.ACell + PRP procedure was the hit in the center. He was overwhelmed with the Lucia Team’s expertise and patience – they really listened to his problem and found the perfect solution. He wasn’t ready for a surgical procedure, and ACell + PRP treatment provided him the best and completely natural results. How? Well with the power of his own body. His weakened hair was stimulated to get thicker. The treatment repaired the damaged tissues and allowed the new and strong hair to grow. Really fast treatment – that’s all he desired, and that’s what he got with ACell + PRP. “It’s absolutely smooth and nice, and you won’t feel anything.”- this is how he experienced the procedure. He understood that the maximal results would be seen three months after his last treatment – but that’s not too much time when regarding the achieved results. Thicker hair and shedding reduction – no more worries about hair loss.

“I think every woman has to visit Lucia Clinic – zero pain and amazing work is what you get!” – this is how Leila experienced The Soprano ICE laser hair removal treatment. She basically said it all – it’s painless and it delivers amazing results. After the final session, she was finally free from shaving, painful plucking and waxing – the Soprano ICE laser made the surface of her skin silky smooth and beautiful. She was more than happy with safe, consistent and full-proof results. She could finally enjoy her beautiful bare skin for a long long time.

After consultation with Lucia Clinic’s doctor, Sabrya decided to try Ultherapy treatment for her sagging facial skin concerns, and she knew she was in good hands. The doctor performed this treatment on her lower part of the face – jawline, chin and lower part of the cheeks. And the results? She was amazed! That’s the beauty of the Lucia Clinic Team of doctors – they are humble, welcoming but above all, they listen to their patients! When you listen, you understand! The Ultherapy provided Sabrya exactly what she was looking for – nicer and firmer contour to her lower face, without pain and discomfort. Naturally enhanced beauty and vibrant-looking skin on her face – Ultherapy was the best solution for her. This treatment provides natural build-up of new collagen, which in turn provides radiant, lifted and more elastic skin. Sabrya understood that she will njoy the best visible results after two to three months but it was so worthwhile. You can’t rush nature. But the final outcomes are so beautiful that you realize how much being patient pays off in the end, and how much you enjoy your rejuvenated and beautiful skin after Ultherapy treatment at Lucia Clinic.

Jean Michel was determined to remove his old tattoo and Lucia Clinic Team had a perfect solution for him – Tattoo removal laser treatment. He was more than satisfied with the results after the first session because his old tattoo started to fade away. The experienced laser therapist made his journey owards the new future as comfortable as possible. Jean Michel was especially glad that the therapist used absolute precision when targeting the unwanted ink, so there was no room for harming surrounding skin. Precision and effectiveness – two words that made him certain that Lucia Clinic’s laser therapist knew what she was doing. Even Though he had more than one session until the end, he knew that this treatment would work brilliantly for him. And he was right. “It’s been great so far, and it’s not as painful as you might think.”- that’s how Jean Michel described his experience at Lucia Clinic.

“I already feel a lot better; it aligns your body and gives you that kind of six-pack look.” This is how Mr. Amir Khan described his experience of EmSculpt NEO treatment session done on his abs. The results were more than satisfying and this world-renowned sportsman managed to awake the muscles he hasn’t felt for a while. Mr. Khan was already in perfect shape, but EmSculpt NEO provided him with improvements on his abdominal muscles – more tone and better alignment. Some muscles are difficult to define no matter how much we exercise. That’s when EmSculpt NEO comes in handy – it’s perfect for people who are in a good shape but wish to addmore definition to specific muscle groups. No stubborn fat pockets can escape this powerful treatment – a perfectly aligned body with well-defined muscles is what Mr. Khan got after finishing EmSculpt NEO treatments.

CLEAR + BRILLIANT TREATMENT FOR NATURAL-LOOKING AND BRILLIANT FACE

Clear + Brilliant is an effective laser treatment for regular maintenance of skin appearance. Just what Iva was looking for. She arrived at her treatment session and first, the treatment therapist thoroughly cleaned her skin. In order to make the treatment more comfortable a topical anesthetic cream was applied to her face. Comfort comes first! After 15 minutes anesthetic cream has been removed and then the treatment started – a laser handpiece was gently and precisely glided over the surface of her skin. It covered the whole face, especially the problematic areas.‍

WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO IVA’S SKIN DURING THE TREATMENT?

The laser used in Clear + Brilliant treatment is very gentle but powerful. It targets the skin tissues and causes microscopic and multiple subsurface thermal injuries. This stimulates the change in collagen and elastin and gradually improves the appearance of sun-damaged or aging skin. So the skin actually heals itself. That’s why the treatment provides natural-looking results – our body actually improves the skin on its own. The laser penetrates to a controlled and absolutely precise depth, and it’s safe and comfortable.

The treatment therapist used the patented Intelligent Optical Tracking™ System (IOTS) which made sure that proper contact to Iva’s skin was maintained and that all treated areas were uniformly addressed.

So, Iva’s skin was actually refreshed from the inside out. The laser energy replaced damaged skin with healthy, younger-looking skin. When the Clear and Brilliant laser treatment was finished, the therapist applied a refreshing mask to her skin.

After about 60minutes, the session was over. Iva experienced a mild heating sensation but it seized quickly. When the recovery time was over –approximately 1 week after the treatment Iva’s skin was more radiant and refreshed.

Clear + Brilliant treatment was an ideal solution for Iva because she wanted a laser treatment that was fast, gentle and effective. Lucia Clinic’s therapist helped her to prevent signs of aging and refresh her face. Iva will definitely return to Lucia Clinic for her next session as she has included Clear + Brilliant treatment in her skincare regimen because she knows that it will protect her skin from environmental and natural effects of aging.

BOTOX® – THE BELOVED AND EFFECTIVE AESTHETIC TREATMENT

Botox® can really goa long way when turning back time and enhancing natural beauty. This is why this treatment is so desired by Lucia Clinic’s patients. This is why Caroline decided to maintain her face fresh and rejuvenated with Botox®.

Upon arriving at Lucia Clinic, Caroline was first consulted with a doctor, specialized in the field of Botox treatments. The doctor carefully examined her face to see what kind of facial expression Caroline makes. The main reason for this is to keep those expressions natural after the treatment. This can only be achieved if a professional doctor performs the procedure. After the specific treatment plan was created, Caroline could start with the procedure. She knew that she was in good hands.

 HOW DID THE BOTOX® TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?

The doctor first thoroughly cleaned Caroline’s face and then marked the spots on her upper part of the face where the Botox® would be injected. The spots included dynamic wrinkles, which when they start to appear can be perfectly treated with Botox® and slow down the appearance of static ones. So, the target areas were horizontal lines on the forehead, glabellar lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet wrinkles on the outer corner of the eyes and above the outer corner of the eyebrows.

The Botox needles are very fine so Caroline felt only mild discomfort when her doctor started injecting the Botox®. The process of administering the Botox® needles is slow, gentle and precise – the needles are inserted only into the marked spots, or the muscles that need to relax and stop making the wrinkles. There is no room for mistakes when using Botox® – Lucia Clinic’s doctors know this and follow this rule without exception.

During the treatment, the doctor injected Botox® first into Caroline’s glabellar lines, then horizontal forehead lines, then into crow’s feet lines and finally above the eyebrows. The treatment was over quickly and Caroline could see the first results after one week time – the facial muscles where Botox was injected were relaxed and fine lines in the treated areas were reduced. The best and most important fact – she was able to keep her facial features achieving more radiant look. Let’s face it- nobody wants to look like a frozen porcelain doll after Botox®. Caroline will never have to worry about that – she knows that she will always keep her natural look after Botox® treatment with her Lucia Clinic’s doctor.

Since Botox® is minimally invasive there was no downtime for Caroline – she could continue with her normal daily activities after the treatment. She was only advised not to lay down flat or bend for 4 hours, not to touch or massage the treated areas and not to go for heavy exercise for 24-48 hours in order to avoid any unwantedside effects.

Botox® treatment contributed to Caroline’s natural and subtle enhancement of her face. She included Botox® in her regular skincare routine because she knew that she would enjoy the long-lasting benefits of Botox® and consistently amazing results.

DERMAPEN MICRO-NEEDLING WITH ANTI-AGE TREATMENT- JOURNEY TO REJUVENATED SKIN

Ivana arrived at Lucia Clinic for her scheduled treatment – Dermapen. She had concerns about her facial skin appearance and consulted with the Skin therapist who examined the skin on her face. After the custom-tailored treatment plan, just for Ivana, was created, the treatment could start.

 HOW DID IVANA’S TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?

As usual, Ivana’sface was first thoroughly cleaned – the make-up was removed as well as otherparticles of dirt. Then the therapist applied numbing cream to Ivana’s face andneck to ensure maximum comfort during the treatment. After 15 minutes Ivana wasready to start with the treatment. The therapist used a special Dermapen™micro-needling device to treat Ivana’s skin. This device is revolutionary andprovides brilliant results when it comes to lifting, tightening andrejuvenating the skin. It is absolutely safe and consists of individuallysealed, sterile and disposable needle cartridges. Every needle tip usesproprietary technology to vertically penetrate into the skin and deliver up to1300 micro punctures per second. It is powerful but it doesn’t cause anydamage.

This is what happenedduring Ivana’s Dermapen treatment. The device created small, micro-channels inthe skin and stimulated the skin’s natural ability to heal itself and increasethe production of new collagen and elastin. At the same time, the therapistused a rollerball – AnteAGE DM brightening solution. So, Ivana was getting adouble anti-age effect. Firstly, Dermapen stimulated the collagen and elastin productionin her skin. It activated new healthy skin cells instead of old and damagedones. At the same time AnteAGE brightening solution that has growth factor was easilyabsorbed by her skin and rendered more effectively than a traditional topicalapplication. Dermapen treatment promoted tissue remodeling, making her skinlook tighter.

Ivana’s Dermapentreatment was finished in about 45 minutes. The skin on her face and neck wasvisibly red but as Dermapen treatment is non-invasive, her skin healed quickly.The redness lasted for a day and improvement was seen after one treatment.Ivana was absolutely satisfied with her skin appearance and she is lookingforward to her next Dermapen AnteAGE treatment.

LIP FILLERS – A NATURAL WAY TO PLUMPER LIPS

For Enisa, her lips weren’t as enhanced and representative as she wanted. She wished her lips were more symmetrical, voluminous and well-balanced. Upon meeting the Lucia Clinic’s doctor who would guide her on her journey to perfect lips, she knew she was in good hands.

After a consultation, the doctor created a custom-tailored treatment plan just for Enisa. The thing we should always remember is that everyone has differently shaped lips and different concerns and goals. That’s what Lucia Clinic’s doctors always keep in mind – listen to the patient and provide the best and expected results.

EVERYONE WANTS LIPS THAT TURN HEADS

Enisa rebuilt her lips in a natural way, where the doctor used JUVÉDERM® hyaluronic acid lip injections. These lip fillers are completely safe and make the lips look fuller and defined.

The doctor carefully injected lip fillers along the borders of Enisa’s lips and massaged the injected spot every time to ensure that the filler was evenly distributed. He strategically addressed Enisa’s concerns and achieved the desired results.

JUVÉDERM® hyaluronic acid lip fillers are semi-permanent solutions and when the doctor injected them into the soft tissue of Enisa’s lips – her lips were enhanced and smooth. Since HA is something that we already have in our body, lip fillers keep the natural look, movement and feel of the lips. That’sone of the main reasons Enisa was so happy with the results – she got naturally enhanced lips with perfect contours and boosted volume.

The lip fillers treatment is only mildly uncomfortable. Also, the JUVÉDERM® lip fillers contain an anesthetic that temporarily numbs the tissue of the target area. This way the treatment is even more comfortable. So, Enisa wasn’t worried about the discomfort. After the treatment, she could immediately see that her lips were softer and fuller.

Since the lip filler procedure is only mildly invasive the area around Enisa’s lips was mildly red and swollen, but these sensitivities ended after a few days. Enisa was advised by her doctor to avoid sun exposure, vigorous exercise, sauna, steam room, spicy food, hot drinks and make-up for the next 24-48 hours. After that – thesky was the limit.

LUCIA’S SIGNATURE FACIAL – A JOURNEY TO A BEAUTIFULLY HYDRATED FACE

Sania Mirza arrived at Lucia Clinic hoping to get her facial skin hydrated and rejuvenated. And she got more than she expected – Signature Lucia facial, created especially for her skin type and skin concerns.

HOW DID THE TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?

First, Lucia Clinic’s facial therapist cleaned Sania’s face and since this treatment is comfortable it didn’t require any topical anesthetics. Sania could relax while the therapist diligently worked on improving her skin appearance.The therapist used a special device that has different tips and uses Vortex-Fusion technology to create a vortex effect. It is a very gentle and yet powerful device that really goes an extra mile when it comes to skin nurturing. It lightly swirls across the skin and is comfortable even for sensitive skin.

Next thing was -cleansing. The therapist removed oil, any residue from skincare products or makeup and other impurities.

Then – peeling. The therapist reached deeper levels of Sania’s skin to clean the pores and improve the absorption of the treatment serums. The peel was of course very soft, very comfortable.

Following step -extraction. With the device that had a specially designed suction tip, the therapist extracted the blackheads, dirt and other debris but with the twist -there was no irritation or redness. That was followed by manual extraction for the most persistent spots.

Finally – hydration and nourishment. This step involved moisturizing Sania’s skin and then infusing it with customized serum that contained antioxidants, amino acids, hyaluronic acid and other important ingredients.

After the last step, Sania’s skin was maximally hydrated and rejuvenated.

Since the facial is absolutely safe and non-invasive there was no irritations or downtime. Sania could continue with her normal daily activities right away – like returning to the tennis court. But this time with perfectly protected and brilliantly hydrated skin.

AFT PHOTOREJUVENATION – A JOURNEY TO A BRIGHTER COMPLEXION

Carolin came to Lucia Clinic because of the inflammation on her facial skin. During her first visit, she was consulted with Lucia Clinic’s doctor about her skin concerns. They created a custom-tailored treatment plan just for her. This plan included deep cleansing facial and the number of AFT sessions for achieving the best result.

Before the AFT treatment started the doctor thoroughly cleaned Carolin’s face, to remove make-up or other skincare products. The comfort of their patients is always very importantto Lucia Clinic’s Team – they always go the extra mile in ensuring their patients a pleasant experience during treatment. The doctor applied a cooling gel to her face – another plus for comfort but also to protect her skin. Carolin received protective eye shields in order to protect her eyes from the laser. And then the treatment started. The doctor glided the IPL handpiece across her face.

 HOW DID AFT TREATMENT IMPROVE CAROLIN’S SKIN PROBLEMS?

Photorejuvenation treatment or photo-facial non-invasively improved Carolin’s skin because of intensive pulses of broadband light. The light treated the skin concerns at the surface or cellular level. IPL light penetrated deep into the epidermis and caused collagen fibers and blood vessels to constrict but it didn’t harm the top layer of the skin in any way. The targeted light was absorbed by melanin and red blood cells deep in Carolin’s skin and it intentionally damaged the area where it was directed. So, there was no harm done on the surface of the skin, but a lot was going on on the inside – the dormant cells were woken up and they transformed the inflamed skin into a more even and smooth complexion. The doctor used a special technique called pulsed light therapy and through the handpiece emitted intense and bright light. The IPL handpiece has a glass or laser surface tip that was pressed to the targeted areas and emitted light. This light disrupted the collagen that was underneath the skin and heated it up. So, we are talking here again about the body’s natural way of producing more collagen and healing the skin itself. That’s exactly what happened to Carolin – it started to heal on its own and reduced the inflammation she was concerned about.

Carolin experienced the laser as a light snap of a rubber band together with a mild heat. But, since the AFT handpiece has a cooling effect, her discomfort was minimal.

Carolin could immediately see the improvements in her skin after the first course, but she understood that she needed a few more sessions to achieve the best results.

Another thing that made AFT rejuvenation treatment particularly appealing to Carolin was that after the treatment there is minimal downtime. She could continue with her daily activities right away. She experienced mild stinging and redness after the treatment but these sensitivities ended quickly. Her doctor advised her to avoid excessive sun exposure for one day and use minimum of SPF 30 sunblock.

After the final session, her skin was younger-looking and smooth. The issues with inflammation on her face were solved, and AFT treatment left her complexion healthier and brighter.

ACELL + PRP TREATMENT – A JOURNEY TO STRONGER AND HEALTHIER HAIR

Upon arriving at Lucia Clinic, Khaled Alattar was first consulted with a doctor who assessed the status of his hair and listened to his goals and expectations. Since Khaled was dealing with hair volume loss, they decided that this combination treatment will be a perfect solution for his problem. The doctor then created a customized treatment plan to meet his specific hair restoration needs.

Before the treatment could start, a Lucia Clinic technician first drew some blood from Khaled to create platelet-rich plasma concentration.

 WHY IS DRAWING BLOOD IN THIS TREATMENT ESSENTIAL?

Because our bodies can help us to improve some of the problems that we experience on our skin. Our bodies are our best allies when it comes to hair restoration. PRP is a concentration that is actually derived from our own blood. It is full of bioactive proteins and growth factors that trigger the healing of skin and soft tissues. PRP therapy is a perfect solution for hair loss reduction and thickness of the existing hair increase. Moreover, it is impossible to get an infection or allergic reaction because the patient’s own blood is used in the treatment. It is completely natural and the body doesn’t reject it because it is a substance that’s already present in it.

Anyway, our blood consists of four major components – red and white blood cells, plasma and platelets. Platelets are a type of blood cells, and plasma is the liquid that holds the platelets together. In order to get platelet-rich plasma, the blood components must be separated. ‍

BACK TO KHALED TREATMENT

After the blood was drawn it was placed in a centrifuging machine for 5 minutes. In this process the separation of blood’s components took place. The separated platelets were injected into the plasma and then mixed with the powdered ACell product to create an injectable serum.

In the meantime, Khaled’s head was locally anesthetized in order to make the treatment more comfortable. When his scalp was numbed the treatment started. The doctor carefully and precisely injected the ACell + PRP mixture along his hairline and in different areas of his scalp. After the treatment, his hair was cleaned and he could return to his daily activities.

When the mixture was injected into his scalp, the PRP stimulated inactive hair follicles to enter the active growth phase and the growth factors and proteins stimulated the repair of the tissue. The mixture also increased blood supply. So, the whole process stimulated the power of his own body’s tissue regeneration and triggered hair follicles to grow. In the end, the treated follicles became healthier and bigger and started producing stronger hair.

Khaled understood that he needed two more sessions of PRP spaced one month apart to achieve the best results. But this waiting period was nothing compared to the benefits he got from these two powerful therapies. ACell repaired his hair at a cellular level and PRP triggered his hair growth. Combined, these two therapies really helped him restore his confidence and enjoy his thick and healthy hair.

THE SOPRANO ICE LASER HAIR REMOVAL – THE JOURNEY TO A SMOOTH AND SILKY SKIN

Leila arrived at Lucia Clinic for her first consultation with the Lucia Clinic laser therapist. The therapist assessed the body areas where she wished to treat with The Soprano Ice laser device. The laser therapist can create a custom plan for each and every patient to ensure patients’ safety and achieve the best results. We must remember – every skin is different and every patient reacts differently to laser treatments. This is something you will always hear from Lucia Clinic doctors.

Leila was advised to avoid hair removal creams, tweezing, threading and waxing for 6

weeks before the treatment. The only way of hair grooming allowed was shaving. Why was this important? Because the laser targets the root of the hair and most hair removal forms take out the root. So, the hair root needed to be present in order to achieve the best results with the laser.

When the scheduled treatment day arrived, Leila was amazed by the Lucia Team’s professionalism but also with their hospitality. It was a wonderful experience for her.

Before the treatment, the laser therapist cleared Leila’s skin and gave her special protective eyewear – to protect her eyes from the laser beam. And the last thing – the therapist applied the cooling gel to the area that would be treated to glide the laser applicator smoothly over Leila’s skin and also to ensure that her skin is protected from the heat.

The treatment started. The therapist swiftly moved the laser applicator over the targeted areas as many times as necessary. As we said every treated area was different and required a different level of laser energy. The therapist controlled the laser energy as necessary and constantly made sure that Leila was comfortable and safe.

 WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO LEILA’S SKIN DURING THE TREATMENT?

Since the Soprano ICE laser is perfectly safe Leila was more than comfortable during the treatment. The surface of her skin stayed cooled because of SHR™ technology and theIn-motion™ technique. This technology enabled the laser therapist to sweep the applicator consistently over the targeted area. The laser applied low fluency at high repetition rates – this way a full coverage of the treated area was guaranteed. Also, at the same time, the treatment included ICE™ technique that cooled the surface of her skin – so the treatment was painless. The laser device consists of a sapphire diode laser that actually prevents the skin from overheating.

The heat is actually very important in this treatment. It was maintained inside the dermis and treated the hair follicles. The diode laser produced a focused beam of light that targeted the melanin in the hair follicle. SHR™ slowly heated the dermis until it reached the temperature that was absorbed by melanin which in turn heated up and destroyed the hair follicle and stopped the hair from growing again. This effective laser technology actually prevented unwanted hair growth and ensured silky smooth and beautiful skin. Leila was very happy with the results.

After the treatment was over, Leila experienced some minor sensitivities like redness but it was quickly over.

She was advised to avoid heat from saunas and strenuous exercise like swimming for 24 hours. Just to be sure there wouldn’t appear any irritation. Since the skin was sensitive after the treatment, she was also advised to avoid tanning for a few weeks after the treatment.

And that’s all.

Leila is looking forward to her next Soprano ICE laser hair removal treatment. She understands that over time the hair will become weaker and will fall off. After her final session her skin will be completely smooth and free of unwanted hair. No more painful plucking, waxing or tiresome shaving – Soprano ICE laser is an effective solution.

ULTHERAPY – A SAFE WAY TO LIFTED AND REJUVENATED SKIN

Sabrya Ali arrived at Lucia Clinic to have unique Ultherapy treatment and improve her skin tone and firmness. During the consultations with Lucia Clinic Ultherapy therapist, Sabrya’s skin was carefully examined and the therapist created a treatment plan to meet her exact needs and expectations.

 WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE TREATMENT?

First, Sabrya’s face was thoroughly cleaned and then the therapist carefully marked the area on her lower face where the treatment will be performed. Next, the therapist applied the cooling gel to the marked area and started with the procedure. The therapist used the ultrasound device and gently pressed it to Sabrya’s lower cheeks, jawline and chin. The therapist glided the applicator with absolute precision because she could see the targeted layers of tissues and focus the ultrasound energy exactly where it was needed.

When the treatment was over Sabrya experienced minor redness on the treated area which stopped shortly afterward. During the whole treatment, the therapist ensured that Sabrya was comfortable. Patient comfort is always in the first place for Lucia Clinics Team – they deliver the best results, but also care about the patient’s safety and well-being.

HOW DID ULTHERAPY® TREATMENT HELP SABRYA IMPROVE HER SKIN?

Since the Lucia Clinic therapist used a smooth applicator, she placed it precisely on the targeted areas. The ultrasound energy stimulated the deep layers of Sabrya’s skin and it didn’t harm the top layers of her skin. A low level of ultrasound energy was sent just under the skin which triggered the skin to respond to this energy in building new collagen.

Collagen is a super important protein that actually gives the skin its youthful appearance and improves its tone and firmness. It improves its elasticity and strength. Ultherapy stimulated the building of new collagen and rejuvenated Sabrya’s skin.

Sabrya was more than happy with the initial results after the session, but she also understood that the further effects will show after two to three months post-procedure. She was more than willing to wait and see the further enhancement of her skin. We all must understand that we can’t rush nature – it takes a little time to build up the new collagen that will strengthen the skin from inside. After this “invisible” result – the new collagen creation, Sabrya will enjoy her new revived skin and improved contour of her face.

TATTOO REMOVAL PROCEDURE – MAKE THE UNWANTED INK GO AWAY

Jean Michel Elias had a big black tattoo that he wanted to remove. When he arrived at Lucia Clinic, first he was advised by the laser therapist who assessed his skin in detail and made sure that the laser treatment is right for his concern. And then the treatment started.

The laser therapist first cleaned the targeted area, then numbed Jean Michel’s skin on his arm and gave him protective eyewear. Then the therapist precisely guided the laser across his arm – the laser delivered powerful bursts of energy with very short pulses to break down the pigment ink. When the laser energy was applied with the right wavelength, it targeted the pigment and its particles absorbed the laser energy. The laser actually caused micro-damage to the skin and the procedure was a bit uncomfortable, but Jean Michel handled it really well. The therapists asked him all the time if he was comfortable – the patient’s well-being was in the first place.

During the procedure, the therapist used a Clear Lift laser handpiece with Q-switch energy which can reach the deepest layers of the skin – up to 3 mm in depth. This state-of-the-art laser technology can shatter tattoo ink without causing any damage to the surrounding tissue. So, there is no possibility to cause any scars during and post-procedure. Of course, this fact was something that was really important to Jean Michel – an effective procedure but without side effects. Anyone who is removing a tattoo doesn’t wish to remember it by scar.

Basically, Q-switch laser broke down the ink into smaller particles through its powerful burst of energy, and then the particles were absorbed into Jean Michel’s bloodstream and expelled from his body. His body’s natural healing processes (the lymphatic system)would remove these ink fragments. The end result – after the final session his tattoo would fade and the surrounding skin tissue would stay unharmed. All healing stages and repair of the skin would happen under the intact epidermis.

And that’s how Jean Michel’s tattoo removal procedure looked like. He understood that he needed more sessions to get the best results because his tattoo was quite large. Nevertheless, he was absolutely satisfied with the treatment. The laser therapist advised him to avoid sun exposure in order not to get skin irritation.

Jean Michel was on his way of leaving the past behind with the help of the Lucia Clinic Team.

EMSCULPT NEO – TWO PROCEDURES IN ONE

It is the first and only device that combines removing the stubborn fat pockets and builds the muscles at the same time. Also, Lucia Clinic is currently the only clinic that provides this exclusive service. That’s why Mr. Amir Khan was interested in this amazing treatment. Amir arrived at Lucia Clinic for the first time this year and first, he was consulted with the Lucia Clinic therapist. Amir wanted to try out the procedure on his abs. So, the treatment plan was created to specifically address this area.

WHAT WAS GOING ON DURING THE EMSCULPTNEO TREATMENT?

You might think that combining two treatments at once could be a bit tough to handle but it is actually quite tolerable. The therapist placed the EmSculpt NEO applicator on Amir’s abdomen and he could feel the intense muscle contractions and heat. These two sensations were the result of HIFEM and RF energies.

HOW DO THESE ENERGIES HELP WITH BODY CONTOURING?

HIFEM energy builds the muscles.  It is electromagnetic energy of high intensity and it is focused on the stimulation of muscle contractions. This muscle stimulation happens deep inside the tissue and you feel as if you get 20,000 contractions in muscle groups (not possible with normal exercising). Little by little the muscles start working and BAM! They were highly impacted.

Anyway, this whole process shouldn’t be painful. Everybody responds to the treatment differently and the therapist can adjust the intensity ensuring that the patient is comfortable.

But, that’s not all. This treatment uses RF energy that helps stubborn fat pockets reduce through heating its tissues. So, fat cells have no chance against EmSculpt NEO – they are melted away and eventually eliminated from the body through natural metabolic processes.

This is how Amir experienced EmSculpt NEO treatment for the first time. He has three more sessions to go until he will get that more-defined six-pack look on his abs. EmSculpt NEO treatment requires 4 sessions and the best results are seen 4weeks after the final one. It so worth waiting!

Return the natural brightness to your face and solve the concerns that you have about your skin. Give your skin a more youthful, more beautiful and healthier appearance.

‍

REVEAL YOUR GLOW

Lucia’s chemical peels can do wonders to your sun-affected or wrinkled skin. A light chemical peel will subtly improve your skin by removing the outermost layer of the skin. Gentle and superficial but powerful – this treatment can reduce fine wrinkles, acne or uneven skin tone. Sounds familiar? If you are having some of these skin issues, Lucia’s light chemical peel will reduce the signs of aging and return a healthy glow to your skin. After several treatment sessions and minimal downtime, your skin will shine again.

‍

REFRESH YOUR FACE

Lucia’s medium chemical peel will give your face a fresh, smooth look. It removes the outermost layer of the skin. But no worries – this treatment will make your skin more even and reduce moderate skin discoloring. Also, there is a bonus – it will reduce acne scars, age spots and fine to moderate lines. After a single session, your skin can appear much smoother.

‍

BOOST YOUR COLLAGEN PRODUCTION

Why are chemical peels awesome? Well, simply because they wake up the dormant cells underneath your skin. When the product is applied to your skin, the dead and old skin cells are separated from your skin because the acid molecules get under the top layer of the skin cells. The unwanted skin cells are removed and Voila! The new, fresh layer of skin cells makes your skin look regenerated and glowing. One more thing – the new, healthy skin cells will get more active and before you know it your collagen level will increase. Also, the new skin cells will keep your face hydrated and absorb the skincare products that you normally use mor effectively.

‍

REDUCE HYPERPIGMENTATION WITH LUCIA’S CHEMICAL PEEL

Does your skin appear hyperpigmented because of sun damage, acne scars or inflammations? Well, improve this skin concern with the right ingredients. Once your skin gets treated with the chemical peel, the top layer of the skin cells will be removed and the new skin cells layer with more even pigmentation will shine through. After a few of Lucia’s chemical peel treatments, you can notably improve your skin tone.

REVERSE THE SIGNS OF AGING

Chemical peels can be absolutely effective infighting against fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen plays an important role here again – it is a super important protein that keeps your skin hydrated and gives you that healthy glow. If your skin keeps its elasticity wrinkles and fine lines are less likely to appear. And what keeps your skin elastic? Collagen.

After a chemical peel, new healthy skin cells come to the surface and trigger collagen production and after peeling process is over you will notice the improvements. The downtime during which the peeling process happens varies depending on the peel you choose and can last from 2 to7 days.

Healthier and more youthful skin and glowing complexion – all this is possible to achieve with this powerful anti-aging treatment.

1. WHAT IS BOTOX® AND HOW DOES IT FUNCTION?

Have you ever wondered where BOTOX® comes from? What’s the magic behind this awesome cosmetic product?

Believe it or not, BOTOX® is a derivative of the bacteria Clostridium Botulinum. It was first discovered by a Belgian scientist Emile Pierre van Ermengem after a botulism outbreak in Belgium. Then by the 1920s, scientists at the University of California, San Francisco, first tried to isolate the botulinum toxin. Today, it is a therapeutic agent also known as Botulinum Toxin Type A. This bacterium is widespread and can be found in the soil. It is rod-shaped and can produce neurotoxin botulinum.

BOTOX® is made in laboratories in controlled conditions and it is administered in extremely small doses. It has a completely purified botulinum toxin protein.

Botox is one of the heroes of cosmetic procedures

To BOTOX® or not?

Toxin – you might ask yourself, how is BOTOX® safe then? YES! Yes to BOTOX®, and YES it’s safe!

As I said, it is given in small doses and it does wonders in the cosmetic and medical world.

Now that we covered what BOTOX® is, let’s talk about its

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxic protein extracted from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and related species, and it stops the release of the neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. It is a chemical that works in the body and brain as a messenger between nerve cells – neurons, gland cells or muscle cells. It is released by motor neurons in the nervous system and activates muscle contraction.

Botulinum toxin takes over the nerve cells and releases an enzyme that stops muscle contraction. This enzyme binds to a protein called SNARE which is responsible for forming a complex neuromuscular junction in a synapse between muscle and nerve cells. So, if there are no SNAREs, nerves are not able to send chemical signals that provoke muscles cells to contract and thus cause muscle relaxation by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine from presynaptic motor neurons.

The botulinum enzyme takes over one of the SNARE proteins and splits it in two – that’s enough to stop it from functioning.

WHY IS THIS INTERESTING TO YOU?

Well, in a nutshell when you get BOTOX® injections they relax the muscles on your face that create wrinkles around the eyes and on the forehead. The wrinkles are reduced and your face looks smoother.

After getting BOTOX injections, muscle movements that create wrinkles are stopped or largely reduced. Patients that used BOTOX® say that the effects of the injections administered to their targeted area actually freeze that area for a little while. In general, BOTOX® lasts between 3 to 4 months. There are some patients in who it lasts longer, up to 6 months or shorter less than 3 months. It is also common that for the first-timers to notice that it may not last as long initially, but may last longer after the second treatment. As you can see, how long BOTOX® lasts varies from patient to patient.

But, enough about chemistry. Let’s talk now about the history of BOTOX®.

Read the following chapter.

2. HOW DID BOTOX® ATTRACT SO MUCH ATTENTION IN THE WORLD OF COSMETIC PROCEDURES?

The usages of BOTOX® seem endless today. But before BOTOX® was even considered for cosmetic treatments it was used for completely different purposes – to treat crossed eyes and eye twitching.

Botox injections relax your muscles.

Back in the 70s, scientists began to treat strabismus (crossed eyes) with botulinum toxin. Strabismus results in improper alignment of the eyes when looking at an object. The eye that focuses on an object can alternate.

Anyway, botulinum toxin was first injected into monkeys ’ extraocular muscles. The results were amazing, regarding the fact that only a few picograms affected the targeted muscles and temporarily froze them without any side effects.

Scientists, that conducted this research, noticed that botulinum toxin reduced wrinkles in the glabellar part of the forehead. The glabellar part is between the eyebrows and above the nose.

The first human patients who suffered from strabismus were injected with botulinum toxin type A in 1977, and soon after that hundreds of ophthalmologists were using it in the treatments.

After thousands of patients who received this treatment, Allergan got FDA approval in 1989 to market Botulinum toxin type A to treat strabismus and blepharospasm (eye-twitching) under the trademark BOTOX®.

The potential for other usages of it was discovered.  From that moment on, Botulinum toxin got its role in cosmetic procedures for wrinkle reduction. BOTOX® was on its way to becoming popular.

HOW DID BOTOX® EMERGE INTO THE COSMETIC WORLD?

Botulinum toxin was used for cosmetic purposes for the first time when a plastic surgeon treated forehead asymmetry. The asymmetry was caused by forehead nerve paralysis on the left side. More importantly, the treatment was successful and it made wrinkles on the right side smoother – it matched the left side that was paralyzed.

All in all, other specialists from ophthalmology and dermatology fields noticed that patients who were treated from eye-twitches and received Botulinum Toxin type A around the eyes and upper face ended up with reduced glabellar lines (frown lines).

And BAM! BOTOX® got popular in cosmetic use and in 2002, FDA cleared BOTOX for temporarily reducing the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines.

The cosmetic use of BOTOX® has become widespread.

Take a look at the dates of FDA approvals for botulinum toxin:

1.      Strabismus and blepharospasm in 1989

2.      Cervical dystonia in 2000

3.      Glabellar lines in 2002

4.      Axillary hyperhidrosis in 2004

5.      Chronic migraines in 2010

6.      Urinary incontinence in 2011

7.      Crow’s feet in 2013

Now that we covered history, let’s move on to the most popular usages of BOTOX®.

Read the following chapter.

3. WHY OH WHY DO WE GET WRINKLES?

Well, because they are a normal sign of aging. There are also some other factors that contribute to the appearance of wrinkles like your lifestyle – sun exposure, unhealthy habits or repeated facial movements. Luckily, BOTOX® can really do wonders when it comes to wrinkle reduction around the mouth and eyes.

Before we reveal the secrets of BOTOX® let’s talk about wrinkles in more detail.

There are many reasons why wrinkles form.

CAUSES OF WRINKLES

Wrinkles are lines, furrows and creases in your skin. They are a result of aging skin and volume loss and are completely natural. They appear because your skin gets thinner and drier because of the lower production of collagen. Also, your skin loses its ability to rejuvenate itself and gradually gets pulled down by gravity.

How many and how severe your wrinkles will appear, depend on your lifestyle which can greatly contribute to these signs of aging.

‍

AGING

‍As we get older, our skin changes. Since the skin cells divide more slowly the dermis or skin’s middle layer gets much thinner. The dermal layer consists of elastin and collagen, the proteins that keep the skin elastic and strong. These proteins also loosen and cause wrinkles on the surface of the skin.

In the deeper layers of the skin, there are fat cells and they also diminish in the subcutaneous tissue. Skin gets dry because it loses its ability to absorb and maintain moisture and also sebaceous glands produce less oil – all this contributes to the appearance of wrinkles.

Skin loses its natural ability to repair because blood vessels start to inhibit blood and oxygen flow to skin cells.

Gravity plays a major role in wrinkle appearance because it causes the skin to become loose and saggy, which in turn emphasizes wrinkles and fine lines.

Women lose estrogen in menopause and with it they lose the collagen by up to 30%.

We can’t escape getting older, but there are other aging factors that we can avoid.

SUN EXPOSURE

Did you know that exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays causes 90% of skin aging – also known as photoaging? The ultraviolet rays from the sun penetrate into the skin and damage the elastic fibers that keep the skin firm, allowing wrinkles to develop. Sunlight is also responsible for age spots or “liver spots” on the hands, face and other sun-exposed areas.   The severity of damage is established by the total exposure to UV rays in our lives. It is also determined by skin color or pigmentation. The darker the skin the better protection is established from the effects of sun exposure.

Sun can be bad for the skin in various ways. It can damage the collagen in the dermis and cause the elastin fibers to build up at exceptionally high levels. This causes metalloproteinase enzymes to be produced in large amounts. So, instead of repairing the collagen as these enzymes normally do, they break the collagen down, because of the sun damage. This leads to the formation of solar scars. If this process constantly repeats it eventually develops wrinkles.

UNHEALTHY LIFESTYLE

Unhealthy habits can greatly contribute to the appearance of wrinkles and make the skin look older than it actually is. Crash diets can cause wrinkles and sagging skin because when the skin ages it loses its elasticity and can’t adjust to the rapid weight loss.

Also, sleeping is beneficial for keeping your skin fresh and rejuvenated. Not getting enough sleep contributes to the appearance of wrinkles and tired looking faces.

Avoiding fresh fruit and vegetables is bad for complexion, because you don’t get enough hydration and your face gets wrinkles sooner than it should. Include a lot of different fruit and vegetables in your diet and you will provide your body with hydrating and nutritious sources.

Facial movements

Frowning, squinting and smiling are facial movements that when done repetitively cause the contraction of tiny facial muscles. As time passes these muscles don’t relax and together with gravity cause wrinkles to appear.

These facial wrinkles can be deep crevasses between the eyes, nasolabial folds, or lines that go vertically from the upper lips.

NOT ALL WRINKLES ARE THE SAME

We can have three types of wrinkles – dynamic, static and wrinkle folds.

Dynamic wrinkles are the ones that appear when your facial muscles move – when you laugh smile or squint. They are caused by contraction of muscles that are attached to the overlying skin. Each muscle contraction causes the skin to bunch together and form the lines between the bulk of the muscles. When the skin is still young, it can bounce back to being smooth, after the facial expression is over. That’s because it’s full of collagen, elastin and other important proteins that keep it flexible and youthful. BOTOX® is an awesome solution for dynamic lines because it works as a prevention measure – it keeps dynamic lines from actually becoming wrinkles and staying on your face.

Some of the dynamic wrinkles include

• Forehead wrinkles
• Frown lines (between your eyebrows)
• Crow’s feet (at the outer corner of your eyes)
• Smile lines
• Lip lines

Then as time passes and the skin gets older, dynamic wrinkles turn into

STATIC WRINKLES

They are the culprit of us looking older than we are. They have a bad reputation. Why? Because once they appear on the face, they are there to stay. Their visibility is strong, and even though they start as small lines, they get deeper and deeper. The major cause of static wrinkles is the natural loss of collagen and elasticity. As the skin begins to age, collagen starts to break down and this results in folds, creases and lines. Static lines may also appear because of smoking, extended sun exposure or genetics.

Static wrinkles may Include:

• Tear through lines (under the inner corners of the eyes)
• Marionette lines (from the edge of the mouth down to the jawline)
• Nasolabial lines (from your nose down to the outer corners of the mouth)
• Lateral cheek lines
• Necklines

Botox comes as a solution for all types of wrinkles

BOTOX® TO THE RESCUE

BOTOX® is the most appropriate procedure for treating dynamic wrinkles because it reduces the muscle movements that cause them. BOTOX® injections relax the muscle contraction and dynamic wrinkles no longer occur.

Static lines are a bit trickier, but a proper dose of BOTOX® and repetitive treatments can soften them over time. Or the best solution would be a combination of BOTOX® and dermal fillers.

FACIAL WRINKLES THAT CAN BE TREATED WITH BOTOX®

Do you want to find out how BOTOX® does wonders on the following facial wrinkles? Check out the list below.

1. Glabellar lines

More colloquially known as frown lines or ‘11’ lines, glabellar lines appear between your eyebrows and above your nose.

They are the first sign of aging for many people and they can first appear in the mid-20s. A lot of young people start with BOTOX® to stop the advancement of these wrinkles.

Glabellar lines become more noticeable as the skin loses collagen and elastin and are a natural part of aging. Muscles that contract between eyebrows in a downward movement make these lines stay permanent on the face. The result – people get a constant frowning look, and they appear older and angry all the time.

BOTOX® is a safe and absolutely effective non-surgical treatment for avoiding or reversing the frown face appearance. BOTOX® injections freeze the contraction of glabellar muscles and create a smooth and youthful forehead.

2. Crow’s feet

These lines are also called lateral canthal lines or periorbital lines. They branch out from the outer corners of the eyes while squinting or smiling.

Crow’s feet appear because of the loss of collagen and skin elasticity and extensive sun exposure.

These wrinkles do have some more flattering names like laugh lines or character lines, but still, they are the evidence that we are getting mature.

When we repeatedly make facial expressions like squinting the muscle that contracts fold our skin and eventually causes crow’s feet to appear. These wrinkles can occur at a really young age like mid-20s.

The skin around the eyes is really thin and as it gets older it loses elasticity and can’t bounce back to its relaxed state as it used to.

BOTOX® is a fast and effective treatment for crow’s feet as its fine needles reduce the muscle activity underneath the skin and improve these wrinkles. It reduces the visibility of crow’s feet by relaxing the muscles that surround the eyes. After you had BOTOX®, you should notice that the skin underneath and around your eyes looks smoother, and the difference should be particularly distinctive when you smile.

3. Forehead Wrinkles

Forehead wrinkles are caused due to many factors like losing skin elasticity and using different muscles in your face. The biggest cause may be the later one – the contraction of frontalis muscles that raise the eyebrows and cause wrinkles across the forehead.

So, as the skin matures it loses its laxity and combined with gravity and facial muscles contractions forehead wrinkles and fine lines are formed.

BOTOX® is actually one of the most effective ways in reducing forehead wrinkles. It smooths the horizontal lines and vertical wrinkles between the eyes. The injections work to relax the muscles that cause these wrinkles to form. It prevents the muscles from contracting and thus the creases get softened. After the treatment, the forehead is much smoother as the wrinkles don’t appear anymore.

4. Bunny Lines

These wrinkles appear on the bridge of your nose especially when you scrunch up your nose when laughing. When you overuse facial muscles called nasalis muscles they show up straight or a bit diagonally on both sides of your nose under the bridge. As you get older, they stay around appearing as fine lines, even if your face is relaxed.

They might have a cute name but they are still a type of wrinkles that you worry about.

How do you check if you have bunny lines?

Scrunch up your nose like you are smelling something disgusting and look in the mirror. Do you see the wrinkles that form alongside your nose? You can see them really well or you can see them as tiny creases. They branch out from the inside of the eyes to the bridge of the nose. Now stop with scrunching and check it out – can you still see those fine lines? If yes, they are bunny lines.

So, again BOTOX® is an excellent choice for the treatment of bunny lines because it is injected into both sides of the nose, precisely targeting these lines. Botox injections temporarily limit the movement of your facial muscles. It is an effective way to minimize the appearance of bunny lines. 

5. Lipstick Lines

Lipstick or smokers’ lines are wrinkles that appear on the lower and upper lip and fan out from the lip border. They are also known as pucker lines or perioral rhytids.

These wrinkles get even more prominent when you pucker your mouth by using Orbicularis Oris muscle that borders the mouth. These lines also appear because of the loss of collagen that happens as the skin ages and the constant clustering of the tissue because of muscle contractions. They make the lipstick run and smudge outside the lips – that’s how they got their name.

BOTOX® is a very common treatment for lipstick lines no matter how deep the lines are. It is effective because it relaxes the lines and eventually smooths them. Both upper and lower lip lines can be effectively treated. Botox is a simple in-office procedure and takes about 10 minutes. It causes minimal pain and downtime.

BOTOX® is injected in Orbicularis Oris muscle which results in temporarily freezing its movements. But you are of course still able to move your mouth as you normally do.

That’s one of the advantages of BOTOX® – it gives an absolutely natural appearance to the treated area.

6. Marionette Lines

These wrinkles extend from the corners of the mouth down to the chin. They cause the mouth to look as if turned down and give you a sad appearance. They are wrinkles that perhaps make people look the oldest.

They look like the borders of the jaw on a marionette puppet – hence the name.

As the skin ages, the fat pockets in your upper face start disappearing, while at the same time the fat pockets in your lower part of the face get more filled. So, your skin starts to sag down and create folds – marionette lines.

BOTOX® is an awesome option for treating these wrinkles because its injections relax the muscles that pull the corners of your mouth downward.

Botox is a solution for neck wrinkles as well

7. Chin Dimpling

As your skin ages, it can look bumpy on the chin area and give the appearance of orange peel, or in French ‘peau d’orange’. This effect is a result of over-flexing of the mentalis muscle found in the chin.

BOTOX® works wonderfully in this case because precise injection in the mentalis muscles (the only elevator of the lower lip and chin) makes it relaxed and thus the chin gets a smoother contour.

8. Neck Bands

The neck is another area that can reveal our age. As the skin on the neck gets mature, dynamic muscles become more noticeable and cause wrinkles and lines that make us look older.

The neck consists of a pair of vertical bands that are called platysma muscle bands. They are placed at the front and sides of your neck. When they become hyperactive during the years there increase and combined with the loss of elasticity and volume your neck appears much older.

BOTOX® works great for neck wrinkles because when it is injected into muscles, they become relaxed and decrease hyperactivity. They become less prominent and your neck appears smoother, tighter and younger.

Another BOTOX® usage that is specifically efficient is –

A Nefertiti Neck Lift

It targets the neck and jawline and BOTOX® really contributes to the lifting and rejuvenating effect.

WHAT’S THE ORIGIN OF THE NAME A NEFERTITI NECK LIFT?

Remember the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti? Her bone structure is still admired – a well-defined, long neck is a sign of beauty. Today, this procedure is the tool of choice to sculpt a well-defined jawline and slender neck.

This treatment helps you if you lack jawline definition, have a sagging neck, loose jowls or you frequently tense the neck area, which causes you to appear older. The treatment reverses the signs of aging in the lower face, neck and jaw and results in a smooth appearance and tighter skin.

BOTOX® injections are administered along the lower jawline in order to relax the upper Platysma which is responsible for pulling down the jawline. The result is a lifted appearance and enhanced definition of the jawline.

With Botox injections, you can see the best result.

The second area of BOTOX® injections administration is muscles in the neck area. The result is smoother neckbands.

Also, some other areas that are treated are the Masseter muscles (the muscles used for chewing) and DAO – Depressor Anguli Oris. DAO is a muscle used for making facial expressions and it pulls the corners of the mouth downward and produces a frown. The results of BOTOX® treatments include reducing some of the downward pull and raising the corners of the mouth. BOTOX® injections in the Masseter slim down the face and make it look more heart-shaped instead of masculine square.

Aging is something we can’t escape, but we can reverse the signs with BOTOX®. BOTOX® injections cause facial muscles to relax and thus decrease the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

4. HOW CAN BOTOX® IMPROVE GUMMY SMILES?

Take a look in the mirror and smile. Do your lips go 3 millimeters or higher than your teeth and sit on the gums? Chances are you have a gummy smile. It may seem authentic and endearing and it doesn’t bother you. But if you are self-conscious about your smile and never feel comfortable when you smile, I’ve got news for you – you can improve it with BOTOX® treatment.

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF A GUMMY SMILE?

We can’t be all blessed with the ideal smile – exposing only 1 millimeter of pink upper gum, above our teeth.

There is a genetic predisposition, so some people have an overly grown upper jaw.

Others have a short or overactive upper lip that shows more gums when they smile.

Then there are teeth – they can be smaller or hidden and thus more gum is exposed.

And also, there is gingival hypertrophy – a condition when the gum tissue is enlarged or long.

HOW DOES BOTOX® WORK FOR A GUMMY SMILE?

The biggest advantage of BOTOX® treatment for gummy smiles is that it’s non-surgical and really quick. Not to mention that it’s highly effective. When BOTOX® is injected, it relaxes the upper lip muscles so the upper lip doesn’t rise so much when you smile. The treated area is on both sides at the junction of the nostril and nose to mouth fold.

The result – no gums showing. You get a natural and more attractive smile.

BOTOX® treatment for a gummy smile has a lot of advantages. It is non-surgical and therefore causes only a little discomfort. The results last for 3 months but when you repeat the procedure gradually you get more time between treatments.

There is no recovery time and you can continue with your daily activities right after the procedure.

After the procedure, you will see the first results as early as two days. The full results are visible two weeks after.

One more thing – your BOTOX® therapist will advise you to actively use the targeted muscles for a few hours. Also, you will need to avoid extreme cold or heat, street clear of excessive exercise and sit straight without leaning over for 4 to 6 hours. These aftercare measures are there to avoid any unwanted side effects.

So, return your confidence and smile again because the smile is the best cure for everything.

5. BOTOX® DOES WONDERS WITH EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Have you ever felt that your quality of life is greatly diminished by the excessive sweating and constant underarm pit stains on your shirts? Did it bother you so much that you couldn’t enjoy your social life? Well, what would you say if I told you that BOTOX® is absolutely effective in solving this problem and can prevent soaking through your clothes?

Find out how in the following chapter.

HYPERHIDROSIS – CONSTANT SWEATING

Excessive sweating or medically known as hyperhidrosis refers to any atypical sweating for example when it isn’t hot. People who suffer from hyperhidrosis drip sweat or soak through their clothes. Even if they use antiperspirants, it doesn’t help them.

People can experience excessive sweating on one area of the body or on large areas. If the hyperhidrosis occurs just underarms, feet, hands or heads it’s called focal hyperhidrosis. It is also known as The Silent Handicap, as it significantly affects the quality of life socially, emotionally and professionally.

Luckily, BOTOX® comes to the rescue again. It is safe and FDA-approved for the treatment of underarm excessive sweating.

HOW DOES BOTOX® WORK FOR HYPERHIDROSIS?

BOTOX® injections block the nerves that activate sweat glands. In normal conditions, the nervous system triggers the sweat glands when the body temperature increases. This is how the body naturally cools itself. But when people suffer from excessive sweating the nerves that trigger the sweat glands are hyperactive.

When BOTOX® injections are administered in the area of the body that sweats too much the hyperactive nerves get numbed. If the nerves can’t trigger the sweat glands, a person doesn’t sweat. BOTOX® injections are tiny and placed just under the surface of the skin.

The results show that BOTOX® can decrease sweating from 82 to 88%. The treatment starts to work 2 to 4 days post-procedure and the full results are noticed after 2 weeks. Sweating doesn’t occur from 4 to 12 months. This is when patients usually come for touch-ups because the BOTOX® treatment constantly shows long-lasting improvement in excessive sweating. It greatly improves the quality of life and patients report that they function much better in their daily activities.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT DURING BOTOX® FOR HYPERHIDROSIS TREATMENT?

Patients handle the BOTOX® injections really well, which means that they don’t hurt, they are only mildly uncomfortable. The very treatments for underarm sweating can last for just 10 minutes. There are no special preparations, prior to the procedure, just avoiding shaving for 3 or 4 days. During the BOTOX® treatments, therapists use tiny needles to inject a very small amount of BOTOX® just beneath the skin across the area of sweating – they follow a grid about every 1 to 2 centimeters. The therapists first assess the area of excessive sweating and determine the number of needles they need to inject.

After the treatment is over, you can continue with your daily routine. You are advised to come again and have a follow-up in 1 or 2 weeks. This is because the therapist might have missed some sweating areas in the first round of treatment. These touch-ups actually make sure that you are getting the full benefit of this treatment.

Word of advice – choose a doctor that has experience in performing this treatment.

Doctors who are certified to do this procedure have done special training International Hyperhidrosis Society.

STOPPING SWEATING WITH BOTOX® – IS THAT SAFE?

Absolutely!

There are more than 2 million sweat glands in your body. Only 2% of them are localized in the underarm pits. So, when you temporarily block them with BOTOX® you are not interfering with the body’s natural ability to cool itself. You are just making your life easier.

6. HOW MUCH BOTOX® IS ENOUGH?

You might ask yourself what’s the right dosage of BOTOX® for each targeted area. I’ll tell you right away – it’s different for every individual, but still, there is the overall number of units that are used for the different targeted areas.

Let’s talk about the number of BOTOX® units in more detail.

Everyone is different.

That’s why not every patient will get the exact number of units as recommended. BOTOX® treatments are awesome because you can get a customized plan just for yourself. Customization depends on gender, your targeted areas and the strength of your facial muscles.

Men especially might need a little more unit than recommended. Simply because their facial muscles are stronger so they need more BOTOX® to relax the muscles.

But women can also get more units if their forehead wrinkles are especially prominent. So, as you can see the number of BOTOX® units can vary.

Sometimes less is more – you know how people say!

If it’s your first time the doctor will first assess your targeted area and determine how many BOTOX® units you actually need. Sometimes the BOTOX® practitioner will decide to start off with fewer units and add more at your follow-up treatment (of course if it is necessary).

REMEMBER: BOTOX® can always be added but it can’t be removed!

It’s good to keep this in mind. Since the full results of BOTOX® treatment are visible after two weeks, it’s better to wait and see.

BOTOX® UNITS

Since Allergan is the manufacturer of BOTOX® then obviously they have their own guidelines when it comes to BOTOX® units.

The usual treatment areas are the crow’s feet, forehead and frown area.

So, in order to achieve the desired results, you need the following number of BOTOX® units:

Crow’s feet – 12 units for these wrinkles, so 24 in total for both eyes.

Forehead – 20 units for the frown lines and 20 units for the wrinkles across the forehead.

So, for all three areas, you need 64 units of BOTOX®.

However, the number of units may vary as I’ve already said all depending on how deep your wrinkles are and how strong your facial muscles are.

Gummy Smile – 2.5 units are used on each side.

Bunny Lines – 10 units are usually used on each side of the nose.

Neck – for neckbands it is recommended somewhere between 20 to 60 units. The number depends on how much the necklines are prominent.

Masseter Muscle – typically 15 to 20 units are injected on both sides. This muscle is triggered when you clench or grind your teeth. It can be because of stress or simply a bad habit. It can cause pain in the jaw and lead to temporomandibular joint malfunction or it can make you look wider at the bottom of your face.

BOTOX® treatments actually make the face appear slimmer and fight against the symptoms of clenching and teeth-grinding.

Brow lift – 4 to 6 units are needed. BOTOX® is usually injected in the lateral part of each eyebrow.

If the brows are very low and droopy BOTOX® is injected into the procerus muscle – the muscle between the eyebrows and around orbicularis oculi muscles – the muscles around your eyes. This pulls down the tail of the brow. Also, sometimes BOTOX® is also injected into the upper part of the forehead to relax the muscles and pull the brows up.

Lip flip – usually 10 units are injected to get the best results. The treatment actually elevates the corner of your mouth and turns the upper lip up to make it look fuller. This BOTOX® procedure is one of the quickest treatments and most affordable.

The complete Nefertiti lift – 50 to 80 Botox units are needed for platysma, DAO and Masseter muscle.

Chronic migraines – total dosage for migraine prevention is 155 units. BOTOX® injections are administered into 7 specific muscles on the head and neck. In each session, you get 31 individual injections.

Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) – 50 units of BOTOX® are needed for each underarm. The results of this dose last for 6 months or more. Less than that brings help with symptoms only for a couple of months.

7. BABY BOTOX® – SMALLER DOSES

Are you in for trying BOTOX® for the first time but you are looking for a more discreet, but equally effective outcome? Baby BOTOX® is an awesome entry-level treatment. It provides a fresher-looking complexion and of course, it leaves your natural movements – well, natural.

Let’s dive deeper.

WHAT IS BABY BOTOX®?

To clear something up right at the start – of course, it’s not for babies. It’s just a smaller amount of BOTOX®. The name comes from micro-droplet units that are injected more accurately and superficially to provide you with a natural-looking complexion. When you get Baby BOTOX® treatment your muscles don’t entirely relax.

Benefits of Baby Botox®

• More natural appearance
• Fewer side effects than traditional Botox
• Retain facial movement
• Prevent wrinkle formation
• Release tension in the jaw

HOW IS BABY BOTOX® DONE?

When you decide to enter the world of cosmetic procedures it’s not a bad idea to start slow with anti-aging measures. Baby BOTOX® is injected across your face in smaller amounts and it is super effective if you don’t have very deep wrinkles. It’s an awesome choice for younger people as prevention. If you have deeper lines, you might not be fully satisfied with the results, and it’s better to opt for regular BOTOX® treatment. But the doctor is the one who will advise you the best.

Another great thing about Baby BOTOX® is that it can cover more areas of your face. It can target the usual areas like the forehead, crow’s feet, frown wrinkles but in other areas, it can give a slight lift and make the skin tighter.

WHAT DOES THE BABY BOTOX® TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?

Well, it’s not much different than regular BOTOX® treatment, but if it’s your first time it’s good to discuss with the practitioner about your expectations. Also, you might want to be clear about what areas you target and ask all additional questions about the treatment.

During the treatment, you are injected with Baby BOTOX® in the targeted areas and the only difference from the regular BOTOX® is that you get a smaller number of needles and amount of BOTOX®.

The purpose of Baby BOTOX® is to relax the facial muscles but not completely, just to make them contract with less intensity than usual. So, your face appears smoother because there aren’t any fine lines anymore and you can still make your facial expressions naturally.

THE BENEFITS OF BABY BOTOX®

It might come as a surprise to learn that Baby BOTOX® doesn’t have some different formula than regular BOTOX®. The same botulinum toxin is used in both treatments. But administering Baby BOTOX® is more delicate than administering regular BOTOX®. The final result – you get a refreshed facial appearance.

When treating the lower part of your face doctors need to be especially careful and if possible, use fewer BOTOX®. Baby BOTOX® plays a good role here – it can treat Marionette lines, bunny lines, smokers’ lines or even make the chin appear tighter. The best part – after the treatment, the lower area of your face will appear natural.

Baby BOTOX® can be used in other parts of your body, not just the face. You can use it to lift your neck, on the décolletage to make any fine lines less visible, or even underarms to stop the sweating.

Baby BOTOX® can help people who experience pain in their jaw because it can be injected into the muscles where the jaw meets the skull. This treatment helps them to stop grinding and clenching their teeth. Another effect of this treatment is that since these muscles get relaxed, they give a V-shape look to the jawline and slim the face.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER THE BABY BOTOX® TREATMENT?

When you get traditional BOTOX® it can last between three to six months. On the other hand, Baby BOTOX® lasts for around two months, but it can vary from patient to patient. But this is not a big issue because if your muscles can’t frown or make other facial expressions you actually “educate” them not to do that even when BOTOX® wears off. It takes some time before muscles start contracting the same way as they did before you had BOTOX®. So, the bottom line is that you can get BOTOX® treatments once a year and keep your face soft and smooth.

Baby BOTOX® is actually awesome prevention and along with applying sunscreen and hydrating moisturizer, you can prolong the appearance of wrinkles for a longer time.

So in the end, Baby BOTOX® is a fabulous option if you are entering the world of cosmetic procedures and if you wish to achieve a more natural look. Also, if you already have some fine lines, you can prevent them from becoming deep wrinkles.

8. CAN GENTS USE BOTOX?

Sure! BOTOX® is for everybody. The world of grooming is changing and BOTOX® can be one of the best solutions for men. BOTOX® became famous by going one step further in the beauty world – it relaxes the facial muscles that create wrinkles and can even be used as a prevention. So, men do you want to enjoy BOTOX® and make your faces more enhanced?

Read the following chapter.

Men are also starting to realize that facial wrinkles primarily on their forehead reveal their age. First, they started with skincare products, but now they are demanding more and more BOTOX® treatments. And that’s totally Okay – both genders equally deserve to be satisfied with their appearance.

WHY ARE MEN CONSIDERING BOTOX®?

BOTOX® for men is really becoming more and more popular. There are a lot of reasons for this but most men consider this aesthetic treatment because they want to bring back their confidence. And how do they do it? By smoothing the deep lines and wrinkles on their faces and appearing younger. A youthful look goes a long way when men attend meetings both professionally and personally. The bar has risen on both social occasions – men must try to look their best.

BOTOX® is an amazing anti-aging treatment because it provides instant results that involve the minimization of wrinkles and fine lines. It also provides long-turn results – new wrinkles and lines are prevented from appearing.

When done properly the results of BOTOX® are definitely noticeable – it really makes a difference. So, gents don’t worry about looking frozen – BOTOX® relaxes the muscles but you are still left with soft facial expressions and don’t lose natural appearance.

HOW MUCH BOTOX® DO MEN NEED?

When it comes to skincare treatments the difference in gender is a bit different.  As men tend to have heavier tissue on their faces, they do need a bit more BOTOX® than women. If they want to achieve the same results. Men typically have stronger muscles that make facial expressions, and the stronger the muscles the deeper more prominent wrinkles. That’s just the way it is – but these wrinkles can be easily reduced with the correct amount of BOTOX®. BOTOX® injection technique is a bit different when we talk about male patients because there are differences in anatomy compared to female patients and men could have potentially different goals.

Successful results in using BOTOX® for men requires balancing between masculinizing and feminizing the face because too much of either can result in unwanted outcomes. Because of different facial expressions and anatomy, BOTOX® therapists create unique custom-made treatments for every patient, whether male or female.

Both men and women treat the same areas with BOTOX® – predominantly the glabellar forehead lines, horizontal forehead lines and crow’s feet. Recently, men have started looking for BOTOX® treatment in the lower part of their faces like chin, jawline and part where BOTOX® injections slim and contour the jawline.

When it comes to pain tolerance men do tend to ask for topical numbing creams prior to the treatment. Numbing cream really helps if you are having BOTOX® treatment for the first time, and you are not used to quick pricks of the needles. But the needles are so fine that pretty soon you relax and time passes faster. Experienced BOTOX® therapists can finish the treatment really quickly.

BOTOX® injections don’t actually hurt much because the needles aren’t going very deep into the skin, only superficially. This is one of the reasons why BOTOX® is so popular – it is non-surgical, practically painless, quick and super effective.

WHAT IS THE FOLLOW-UP PROCEDURE?

Okay, so you are done with your first BOTOX® treatment. Now what?

Well, you need proper maintenance if you want to keep the desired results. BOTOX® lasts between 3 to 6 months and then it starts to wear off. But if you use it regularly you can prolong the effects. When your muscles get relaxed the skin will regenerate and smooth out the wrinkles and fine lines. Before each following session, the BOTOX® therapist will evaluate your present condition and administer the injections accordingly. You see, when you relax one muscle, the one which is not relaxed tends to take over. So, your BOTOX® therapist needs to balance the muscles in the right way in order to steer clear of unwanted results.

ONE LAST THING – EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Men could be even more concerned with this unpleasant condition. But, turning to BOTOX® treatment for underarm hyperhidrosis is the best solution.

So, if you are dealing with this issue, this non-invasive treatment could really improve your quality of life. You won’t have to worry about sweaty armpits all the time and you will return your confidence.

Just remember – don’t cut any corners when considering a BOTOX® therapist. Choose an experienced one to avoid any unpleasant side effects.

9. WHY IS BOTOX® THE NUMBER ONE COSMETIC PROCEDURE?

Well, there are a lot of reasons, why people turn to BOTOX® treatments. Whether the reason is wrinkles, migraines or neck spasms, BOTOX® does miracles.

Let’s try to justify the fact that BOTOX® is awesome!

You hear about BOTOX® all the time – from your friends, your read about it on the internet or watch it on TV. Well, let me tell you right away – this is not the result of an effective marketing campaign. This is a testimony to the amazingly effective product and thousands of satisfied patients. BOTOX® really works.

BOTOX® is the most popular procedure because it has an anti-aging effect on wrinkles and fine lines. It makes you look younger. People first see your face when they meet you – make them wonder about your age! Having a BOTOX® treatment helps you to feel confident again.

BOTOX® IS PRACTICALLY PAINLESS

This is one of the best features of this product – it causes no pain. Since BOTOX® treatments are non-surgical they only cause mild discomfort. The needles that are used in the treatment are so fine that they feel like mild pricks. After a while, you get used to needles and actually tolerate the treatment really well. If you want to you can always ask for a topical numbing cream. BOTOX® therapist will apply it to the targeted area prior to the treatment.

One more thing – BOTOX® injections are administered just under the skin, so the pain is minimal.

So, if you are not willing to go under the knife BOTOX® is the best choice for you. You won’t be facing anesthesia and incisions, just a few injections and a youthful-looking, smooth face afterward. There is no hours-long procedure and long recovery time – just a quick procedure and you can go home.

THERE IS NO DOWNTIME AFTER BOTOX®

Another advantage of BOTOX®! Since it is a non-surgical treatment, it requires no recovery time. After the procedure is done you can continue with your daily routine right away. More importantly – you can enjoy the results right away.

When the procedure is over, you just relax a little bit and you can go home. Just avoid strenuous exercise for several days. Also, you shouldn’t massage the areas that were treated because BOTOX® can move to the places where it shouldn’t be. You definitely don’t want that to happen!

There are only minimal side effects that can appear after the BOTOX® treatment like redness, mild bruising and tenderness to the touch of the treated area. But, all these sensitivities end after a few days.

When your muscles are prevented from constant moving and creasing your skin, wrinkles and fine lines will gradually start to disappear. So, BOTOX® minimizes the wrinkles you already have, but also it prevents forming of new lines.

BOTOX® TREATMENTS CAN BE FULLY CUSTOMIZED FOR YOUR NEEDS

That’s another plus for this awesome product. There isn’t just one size that fits everybody. During your consultations, prior to the treatment BOTOX® therapists will assess your face, neck or other parts of the body that you wish to enhance with BOTOX®.

Together you will create a customized treatment plan according to the targeted area and the results you expect to get. So, you can start with smaller amounts of BOTOX® and gradually increase it if it’s necessary. BOTOX® results are built up over time.

If you only have fine, dynamic lines you will fix them with a smaller amount. If on the other hand, you have deeper, static wrinkles you might need more BOTOX® injections.

Bottom line is that your BOTOX® therapist will create the best and more importantly natural-looking results. Because of a customized treatment plan, created only for you, you don’t have to worry about getting a frozen or plastic look.

So, forget about invasive procedures. BOTOX® will smooth your skin and make it look rejuvenated. It will lessen your wrinkles and fine lines quickly and painlessly. Best of all, you will get a younger-looking appearance without having to lose time on a long recovery.

10. HOW CAN BOTOX® HELP WITH CHRONIC MIGRAINES?

In the search to find help with chronic migraines, you may have tried a lot of different things. Migraines can really affect the quality of life for people who experience them as the attacks can be agonizingly painful and uncomfortable. Luckily BOTOX® is one of the solutions that proved to be effective in treating chronic migraines and what’s even more important – it’s a safe and FDA-approved procedure.

SO, HOW DOES BOTOX® RELIEVE CHRONIC MIGRAINES?

Treatment for chronic migraine prevention usually includes 31 injections with 5 units per injection. Injection sites are likely to include:

• upper bridge above the nose
• forehead
• temples
• back of the head
• neck
• upper back

A good candidate for BOTOX® treatment is somebody who experiences headaches (including tension ones) on 15 or more days during each month and has at least 8 which are migraines.  This kind of migraine is considered chronic.

BOTOX® is considered a preventive measure because when injected into certain areas of your body it blocks chemical signals for pain.

Doctors actually came to the conclusion that BOTOX® can help with migraines, because when patients who used BOTOX® for wrinkle treatment, reported that their migraines were relieved.

This was a good sign to start with the studies of BOTOX® for migraine treatment.

Botox injections can help with migraines

RESULTS OF THE STUDIES

In the research in which adults with chronic migraines participated, BOTOX® injections actually reduced the number of days they had migraines and other types of headaches. The participants also had more days when they didn’t feel the pain, and they didn’t miss work so much.

At least half of the participants that got two rounds of BOTOX® claimed that their headaches didn’t occur so often anymore – the days with migraines were cut in half each month.

By the end of the study, after five rounds of BOTOX®, almost 70% of participants reported the same results.

Doctors believe that BOTOX® works for chronic migraines because it stops neurotransmitters that carry the signals for pain from the brain before they reach the nerve endings around the neck and head.

HOW DOES BOTOX® TREATMENT FOR CHRONIC MIGRAINES LOOK LIKE?

The treatment is repeated every 12 weeks. Patients get shots of BOTOX® around their neck and head in order to prevent migraines. BOTOX® injections are administered into 7 different muscle areas – the forehead, bridge of the nose, the neck, the temples, the back part of the head and above the shoulder blades. It’s important to point out that BOTOX® injections are shot before the migraines start – they serve as a preventive measure.

Patients need between 30 to 40 shots equally on each side of the head. If they experience migraines in one specific spot, they need more injections on that spot. The results are noticeable 2 to 3 weeks post-procedure. Most patients start with 2 rounds 12 weeks apart and then continue with the treatment every 12 weeks. Overall, patients get BOTOX® treatment 4 times a year.

So, as you can see, BOTOX® treatments for chronic migraines can really be effective as a preventive measure and as many patients have reported, it really improves their quality of life.

11. UNUSUAL BOTOX® TREATMENTS – CERVICAL DYSTONIA AND BLADDER INCONTINENCE

BOTOX® is not just for wrinkles. It is so versatile. But, more importantly, it is safe and effective in treating different medical conditions. It has helped so many patients with their problems other than smoothing wrinkled faces. Find out about different BOTOX® usages outside the world of beauty.

Read the following chapters.

BOTOX® FOR CERVICAL DYSTONIA

This condition is pretty severe. It’s a movement disorder that causes compulsory muscle spasms in the neck. Muscle spasms are sudden movements in one or a group of muscles. You might also hear people calling them twitches or muscle cramps. These muscle spasms make your head and neck move repetitively which causes you to feel uncomfortable. Your head might end up in an abnormal position which eventually causes neck pain.

Symptoms of this medical condition include neck twisting, or head pulling forward, backward or sideways.  When cervical dystonia progresses, it really causes significant discomfort and changes the quality of life. Therefore BOTOX® treatments are a good choice for easing the symptoms of this neurological condition.

The very cause of cervical dystonia is not known. Usually, people over 40 get it if they had head or neck injuries.

There are also other options for treating this condition like medication and physical therapy. But, BOTOX® remains the first-line therapy and combined with other treatments provides amazing results.

Since BOTOX® was FDA approved for the treatment of this condition it has shown some remarkable results.

Let me just remind you quickly that BOTOX® is a neurotoxin and it is injected into muscles to treat these involuntary muscle spasms.

HOW DOES BOTOX® WORK HERE?

Of course, there was a clinical study that proved that BOTOX® injections are effective in treating cervical dystonia. People that took part in this study got injections of BOTOX® and a placebo. The injections were administered to the muscles that were affected by this condition. The point of the research was to determine whether BOTOX® worked better than placebo at Cervical Dystonia Severity Scale – whether BOTOX® actually improved the scores on the scale. The scale consists of 54 points and as the score goes higher, there are more serious problems with the position of the head.

The final results showed that people who got BOTOX® injections actually managed to lower their score on the scale as opposed to people who got the placebo.

Since the FDA approval, BOTOX® is the first-line treatment for this condition – doctors prescribe it as the first help to ease the pain caused by cervical dystonia. Another plus for BOTOX®!

As I’ve mentioned BOTOX® is a neurotoxin and works by stopping the nerves from taking action. The nerves in your body transfer their signals through neurotransmitters – one of them is acetylcholine. BOTOX® stops the nerves from releasing this neurotransmitter and they don’t send signals to the muscles to contract or spasm. So, the spasms in your neck are prevented.

BOTOX® can quickly improve the symptoms of cervical dystonia – patients start noticing improvement in 2 weeks after getting the first dose. The full results are noticeable in 6 weeks.

HOW DOES BOTOX® TREATMENT FOR CERVICAL DYSTONIA LOOK LIKE?

During your treatment session, the doctor first applies a topical anesthetic on your neck to numb the skin. The BOTOX® injections are mixed with saline and after that administered to your neck in very small doses. The injections are meant to make the contractions weaker and block the signals from the nerves. The doctor follows the EMG guide in order to precisely inject the needles – this is important because this procedure is very delicate. The treatment lasts between 15 and 20 minutes. Once the BOTOX® is injected in the correct areas the treatment is over and you can go home since there is no downtime.

The results of BOTOX® treatment for this condition include returning the function of neck muscles, muscle spasm relief in 2 to 3 days post-procedure, long-term pain relief when combined with medication and exercise, fewer remissions, improvement of abnormal postures and movements.

BOTOX® treatment for this condition works as symptomatic relief and it can’t fully cure it.

THE DOSAGE OF BOTOX® FOR CERVICAL DYSTONIA

After BOTOX® for this treatment was FDA approved, there are accurate guidelines that doctors need to follow in order to perform this procedure. By guidelines, I mean the correct dosage. Also, doctors need to explain to the patients that this procedure is not the cure for cervical dystonia. Its goal is to decrease the neck pain and allow the head to return to its normal position.

After assessing the patient’s condition, the doctor determines the base dose, according to the head and neck position, hypertrophy of the muscles, pain localization and of course the medical history. If the patient is trying BOTOX® for the first time, the doctor will probably use lower doses.

In the clinical study, I mentioned before the average dose was 236 units. However, your doctor will decide on the total amount of BOTOX® that will be suitable for your treatment. The units of BOTOX® are divided into several injections. As I said your doctor can start with a lower dose and then increase it when he determines how your body reacts to BOTOX®.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU GET BOTOX® FOR CERVICAL DYSTONIA?

This also depends on your doctor – he/she will recommend the frequency of sessions. First, they could start with the treatment every 3 months. If you don’t experience any side effects and if BOTOX® is working for you, they will continue with the sessions.

Usually, the effects of BOTOX® start to wear off after three months.

Before you start with your BOTOX® treatments inform your doctor if you have some other medical conditions that could interfere with BOTOX®. These conditions include being allergic to BOTOX® ingredients, having a neuromuscular disorder, having an infection in the neck area, being pregnant or breastfeeding.

In the end, if your body responds well to BOTOX® treatment you can really get rid of chronic neck pain and spasm. Your quality of life can be improved beyond measure.

BOTOX® TREATMENTS FOR BLADDER INCONTINENCE

This is another unpleasant medical condition that can be treated with BOTOX® injections. If you are experiencing constant bladder incontinence then BOTOX® could be the rescuer here. Also, if you have already tried other options for treatment of urge incontinence or overactive bladder and had little to no success, then try BOTOX® to relieve the symptoms.

Unfortunately, urinary incontinence is not an uncommon condition. Almost 17 percent of women and 10 percent of men suffer from this issue. It can really harm your mental, physical and social well-being.

Urge incontinence is the loss of urine unintentionally. It is caused by the contraction of the bladder.

If you have an overactive bladder, you can feel an unexpected urge to go to the bathroom and you can’t control it. Or you urinate more than usually – more than 8 times a day and more than three times during the night.

Urge incontinence and overactive bladder are not the cause of physical movement or activity like exercising, sneezing or coughing. This condition is called stress incontinence, but you can have urge and stress incontinence simultaneously.

A VISIT TO THE UROLOGIST

When you decide to try BOTOX® treatment for urinary incontinence, you visit your urologist. Just make sure that you choose a doctor that has experience in administering BOTOX® injections because this is a very delicate procedure. BOTOX® injections need to be administered to precise areas in order to avoid any unwanted side effects.

BOTOX® works the same as in other treatments. It relaxes the muscles and enables you to have more time to reach the bathroom when you need to go.

Patients generally tolerate the injections really well and compare the pain to period cramps. So, BOTOX® injections don’t actually hurt, they are just uncomfortable.

Another plus for BOTOX® – most patients experience the relief of the symptoms really fast. Only after a few days, patients do feel better. The results last approximately 6 months, but patients can get injections during that period.

The possible side effect is urine retention so, men who have a history of prostate enlargement should avoid BOTOX®.

Even though urinal incontinence starts to develop as we get older, we shouldn’t live like that. Luckily, BOTOX® can really provide excellent results for this condition and once the symptoms are reduced the quality of life gets improved on so many different levels.

This is it. This is my ultimate guide for BOTOX®. Do you still have any questions about this awesome treatment? Don’t shy away from asking them.

Dr. Radmila Lukian has recently given a wonderful interview for ELLE Arabia where she talked about skin issues, skin protection tips and her dedication to providing tailored treatment options that help her clients enjoy healthier and more beautiful lives. She also gave more details about EMSculpt NEO treatment as Lucia Clinic is proud to be the only provider of this revolutionary body sculpting procedure in the Middle East.

Let’s see what this remarkable lady has to say…

DR. LUKIAN’S STORY

How did Dr. Lukian find her passion for dermatology? Well, as a dedicated doctor she maintains and restores human health through medicine – or in her case dermatology. She was always fascinated by aesthetic medicine and when you are passionate about something you succeed.

In her nature, dr. Lukian is a true sportswoman. Her drive for sports has always been a big trigger – she always strives to become a better version of herself and she is in constant competition with herself.

She also feels and transfers this passion to her work. Even though she is a renowned dermatology specialist, Dr. Lukian says – you should never stop learning, researching and developing yourself. As she always strives to help her patients become the best version of themselves, the same goes for her – she uses every opportunity to learn something new and exchange knowledge. But, she also spends her time teaching and training other physicians in her field of cosmetic procedures. She learned from the best and now she is the best.

WHAT DOES DR. LUKIAN SAY ABOUT NOURISHING YOUR FACE IN THE HOT DUBAI SUN?

Living in the UAE means paying attention to your skin – finding the best ways to keep your complexion fresh and nourished while exposing yourself to the sun. Dr. Lukian and her team at Lucia Clinic provide their patients with advanced treatments options for skin replenishing. Dealing with visible imperfections on the skin due to overexposure to the sun like freckles, dilated capillaries, skin dryness or wrinkles is just one part of their expertise. Dr. Lukian explains that it is also important to have healthy lifestyle habits that give you vibrant skin – goodnight’s sleep and proper nutrition are just some of them. We can help our skin by simply changing our everyday routine. Dr. Lukian has a holistic approach to skin procedures – natural-looking outcomes are what she can provide you in the best possible way.

WHAT ARE DR. LUKIAN’S TIPS FOR SKIN PROTECTION?

Skincare is healthcare – that’s what our star doctor always says. We show our love to ourselves when we take care of ourselves. Everyone has unique skin – meet your skin, understand your skin and find what is the best skincare for you with the help of experts. You can avoid premature aging signs if you find a dermatologist who is respected, experienced and has great communication skills. Together you can create the best treatment plan for your skin – natural, effective and the best! You are so right Dr. Lukian.

WHAT ABOUT THE LATEST NON-INVASIVE BEAUTY TREATMENTS AT LUCIA CLINIC?

Lucia Clinic – light, shine, clear, bright! The word Lucia says all that! And all that is what patients get when they come to Lucia Clinic for skin treatments. Dr. Lukian’s team’s mission is to use advanced technologies in providing all beauty treatments from laser procedures, hyaluronic acid injections, collagen replacement, facial contouring techniques – they provide the best results and use the best products. And how do they achieve that? They listen and understand their patients! They use their medical expertise to help their patients restore their light and confidence in their beauty.

DR. LUKIAN TALKS ABOUT LUCIA’S EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT

Why is EMSculpt NEO treatment becoming more and more popular? Well, as Dr. Lukian explained in her interview, it is a revolutionary device – it is the first and only non-invasive body shaping procedure in the world that provides simultaneous fat elimination and muscle building.

Lucia Clinic is the only provider of this treatment in the Middle East.

YOU WILL LOVE YOUR NEW BODY SHAPE!

With EMSculpt NEO you can reduce stubborn fat pockets and tone your muscles at the same time. You can get a perfect body contour after just 4 sessions.

You can improve your core strength, lift and sculpt your buttocks, enhance your calves, add definition to your arm, abdomen and leg muscles, reduce fat – all in 30 minutes. You can lose on average 15% of fat and grow 16% of muscles in the targeted area. How amazing is that!?

THE SECRET BEHIND LUCIA’S EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT

EMSculpt NEO boosts your body’s potential to get a perfectly contoured shape with HIFEM or high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy that builds muscles and radiofrequency or RF energy that burns fat. Both energies work simultaneously – that’s the secret behind the EMSculpt NEO treatment! This one-of-a-kind treatment deeply stimulates muscle 20,000 contractions in the muscle groups that are targetted – this is not possible with normal exercise. So, your muscles adapt and reshape. The advantage – you don’t feel any pain or discomfort, but you feel how your muscles are getting stronger, more toned and defined. This treatment is full of surprises! It doesn’t stop at building muscles – it causes fat reduction through heating its tissues. Again you don’t feel uncomfortable as your stubborn fat cells get destroyed forever. Eventually, you eliminate these fat cells from your body through natural metabolic processes.

You can get stronger and slimmer in flash. EMSculpt NEO takes your body contouring solutions to the next level.

EVERYBODY IS OVERWHELMED WITH THE RESULTS OF EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT

It is non-invasive, painless and fast – but above all effective. There is no downtime after the treatment – you can carry on with your daily activities right after the treatment. Patients can feel that their treated areas are much smoother and more toned. Their muscles are more defined and stronger.

Dr. Lukian is always for balancing everything in your life – exercising, a healthy diet and stress reduction. However, if your fitness and nutrition routine can’t help you eliminate those stubborn pockets of fat or if you simply can’t tone your abdomen muscles that Lucia Clinic’s team is here to help you achieve your goals. EMSculpt NEO treatment can target specifically problematic body areas and provide you with the results you want.

But, again it’s important to keep that healthy lifestyle like exercising regularly and having a balanced diet. Once you achieve your perfect body contour the key is to maintain it with your healthy habits. After the treatment, you will see the best results and keep them for an indefinite amount of time if you continue to care about yourself as you did before.

Dr. Lukian’s team of specialists offers a new, non-surgical body enhancement with EMSculpt NEO. They help their patients reach their aesthetic goals and bring back confidence. They make the light shine through their patients again.

DR. LUKIAN SKINCARE PHILOSOPHY

Dr. Lukian is a doctor who cares and loves all her patients. Her job is to listen and understand her patients’ concerns and to customize a treatment plan that will satisfy and far exceed their expectations. She also advocates for finding a healthy balance between cosmetic dermatology, nutrition, regular exercise and stress reduction is what actually works best for our beauty, mind and souls. Why is Dr. Lukian so appreciated and successful in what she does? Well, because she treats every patients’ skin like her own. Dr. Lukian and her team always focus on their patients to the fullest – not just the face. The face and body need to synchronize so we can age gracefully. We should take care of our bodies with the same effort as we take care of our faces. The harmony between the face and body is the most important.

Dr. Lukian has more than 20 years of experience and she realized that there are three most important factors that patients should be aware of when they are looking for an aesthetic doctor:

#1

As dr. Lukian says we only get one precious face and when we take excellent care of our skin to prevent premature aging we show ourselves love. Our skin is unique. To get to know what is best for our skin, we should always go only to the expert dermatologists. In medicine, experience is important. Dr. Lukian advises – always go for a dermatologist who has at least 10 years of experience. Always go for a doctor who has experience treating different types of skins, great education, and ongoing training.

Of course, as well,  great communication skills.

#2

Next important thing is keep a good dermatologist for the rest of our lives. Dr. Lukian’s Lucia Clinic is the place where Dubai goes for beauty – if you are living or visiting Dubai, or you did not find yet your perfect dermatologist you will find one here.

#3

The last advice – Always go for a doctor who is representative. Nobody is going to a doctor who does not take care of him/herself or doesn’t have healthy skin.

Every patient is different and deserves individual attention and tailor-made beauty ritual. Lucia’s Team combines a holistic approach with modern techniques when supporting the body and skin of their patients. They never solve patients’ skin problems in the short term – they provide natural, long-term results. They address every sign of aging – skin laxity, loss of volume, wrinkles and discoloration.

Aesthetic treatments are constantly changing and new technologies are always emerging. By embracing the changes in this field, dr. Lukian brings non-invasive facial rejuvenation to perfection. Taking the best care of her patients is actually dr. Lukian philosophy and biggest passion.

Finally dr. Lukian’s biggest inspiration is – think healthy, live healthy, nourish your body, mind and soul, do what makes you happy.

DR. LUKIAN AND HER AWESOME TEAM

Dr. Lukian is very grateful for having an amazing Team at Lucia Clinic because together they always succeed in making their patients satisfied with the results. That’s why Lucia Clinic is so special – they work very hard and they have established their place at the top in the world of aesthetic beauty. They follow the trends, researches and developments and also set the trends. With new treatments always on the way, they offer a perfect solution for every problem – whether it’s a facial issue or body imperfection.
