Double eyelid is the favorite of girls, so a lot of people do eyelid surgery. However, some kinds of people are not suitable for doing the double eyelid surgery:
1. The patient with severe physical scars or abnormal clotting mechanism should note and tell the doctor in advance.
2. During menstruation or pregnancy period, as the drug use and coagulation disorder will affect fetal surgery or hemorrhage.
3. The patient who has inside and outside infection in eyes should be cured before surgery.
4. In previous operation, be clear to the local anesthetic allergy; the patient who is anti- anesthetic should inform the doctor.
5. To know the possible failure of operation, so the patient should treat carefully.
6. The child who is under 13 years old are not advocated to do the double eyelid operation.
7. The patients who have some kind of infection, mental illness or mental or psychological instability are not suitable for the surgery.
Freckle Definition
Freckles are clusters of concentrated melanin which are most often visible on people with a fair complexion. A freckle is also called an “ephelis.”
Freckles can be found on anyone no matter the background, however, having freckles is genetic and is related to the presence of the dominant melanocortin-1 receptor MC1R gene variant. The formation of freckles is triggered by exposure to sunlight. The exposure to UV-B radiation activates melanocytes to increase the melanin production, which causes freckles to become darker.
Freckles are predominantly found on the face, although they may appear on any skin exposed to the sun. Freckles are rare on infants, and more common on children before puberty; they are less common on adults.
Causes of Freckle:
Upon exposure to the sun, freckles will reappear if they have been altered with creams or lasers and not protected from the sun, but do however fade with age in some cases. Freckles are not a skin disorder. People with freckles usually have a lower concentration of photoprotective melanin and are therefore more susceptible to the harmful effects of UV-radiation. An overexposure of UV-radiation should be avoided. Sunscreen has been suggested.
Types of freckles:
Ephelides is a genetic trait. It’s used to describe a freckle that is flat, light brown or red, and fades in the winter. Ephelides are more common in those with light complexions (although are found on people with a variety of skin tones) and with the regular use of sunblock, can be suppressed.
Silicone breast implants have been used for many years for breast enlargement and are very popular. However, some women worried that they developed autoimmune illnesses, such as rheumatoid arthritis, or even cancers, as a result of having silicone implants.
Most problems have been associated not with silicone implants, but with liquid silicone injected directly into the breast. Silicone injections are now banned in the US and the UK.
A lot of research has been carried out to see whether silicone implants cause health problems. No link has been found between silicone implants and the development of cancer in humans. The American advisory body on drugs – the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) – banned the use of silicone implants in the United States several years ago when the doubts were first raised. They are now being used in the US again, but only for women in research studies. A statement from the American National Institute of Health in October 1997 said: ‘There is no convincing evidence that a silicone implant causes cancer or autoimmune disease.’
In the UK, the Department of Health asked medical specialists to assess the safety of silicone implants several times in recent years. The last occasion was in July 1998. Each time, after carefully reviewing all the available information, they found there is no good evidence of an abnormal immune response to silicone and no evidence for a link with connective tissue disease. They therefore believe that there is no reason to stop using silicone implants.
All breast implant operations are now recorded on a form which is sent to the UK Breast Implant Registry. Any side effects are reported. If problems occur, all the women who have implants can then be contacted and action can be taken.
It is important to talk through any concerns with your breast care nurse, surgeon or a cancer support organisation before you have an implant.
