Laser tattoo removal is by far the safest and most reliable method of removing unwanted ink from your body. Aside from being the safest method, another appeal towards laser tattoo removal treatment is the precision and versatility of the method that allows any type of pigment to be removed.

Assuming that you’ve got your tattoo removed with the laser removal treatment, or maybe you’re currently in the process, it’s time to understand the aftercare tips that you should do after the treatment.

Cold Compress

Feeling a bit of discomfort is normal after a laser tattoo removal treatment. We recommend applying a cold compress to the treated area for up to 24 hours after the treatment to help relieve any discomfort or inflammation. The pain is only temporary and should subside in a few days.

Avoid high-pressure showers

It is perfectly fine to shower after the laser tattoo removal treatment, as long as the water isn’t set to high pressure because this can cause pain in your skin due to the treatment. It would also be a good idea to wait until any blisters or scabs are healed or closed before taking a shower.

Bandages

In certain situations, blistering and itchiness may occur in the treated area immediately after the laser removal treatment. This is perfectly normal, and it is your body’s own defense system of trying to heal. It is important in this process that you don’t scratch or pick at the blisters as this can lead to infection. Instead, apply an antibiotic ointment and place a bandage over the affected area to remind you not to scratch it.

Wear sunblock

Your skin will be relatively sensitive to UV after the laser removal treatment. Therefore, we highly recommend using a sunblock with a minimum SPF of 50 or higher. In fact, in general, it is always best to wear sunblock or sunscreen regardless, as UV rays are harmful to your skin and can cause all sorts of skin problems.

To conclude, we hope this article has proven useful for those of you planning to perform a laser tattoo removal, or are in the process of doing so. If you’re interested in the actual procedure, contact us directly at Rejuvie Aesthetic Clinic for a consultation session.

We read about it all the time. Cancer is a lethal illness that can take many forms and impact our lives drastically in unfortunate ways. Here at Rejuvie Clinic, we cannot stress enough about the importance of routine check-ups to your medical professionals, especially screenings for cancer.

With that said, we are going to talk about one particular cancer that is often associated with tropical climates like Bali, and that is skin cancer. We say tropical climates because we get exposed to the sun’s harmful UV‌ rays more than other types of geographical regions.

To help you prepare for the screening, we’ll be sharing what is actually involved in a skin cancer screening.

Skin Cancer Screening

The screening for skin cancer is performed with a medical instrument called a dermascope. This instrument allows the dermatologist to inspect the surface of your skin for benign and malignant tumors. Additionally, the dermascope can also reveal any skin pigmentations, as well as detailed patterns in the blood vessels. It is these tiny details that need to be inspected and evaluated to screen for early signs of cancer.

They will inspect areas that are most often exposed to the sun and other additional areas that they deem necessary for inspection. The overall process takes on average 30 to 60 minutes here at Rejuvie Aesthetic Clinic.

Additional precautions

In addition to the screening, the dermatologist can offer to remove any visible lesions if there are any.‌ This is obviously performed with your consent, and we will advise on what the procedure involves should you agree to it.

To conclude, with cancer it is always best to take preventive measures before it’s too late – regardless of what type of cancer. And one of the best ways to do so is with regular screenings.

If given the option, would you want to extend your youth? I think everyone – when given the chance – would want to extend their youthful appearance. After all, we all want to maintain the best version of ourselves. Unfortunately, our appearance gradually changes as we age – it’s just a natural part of aging.

While we can’t rewind time, or reverse its effects on our bodies, we can still do something about it. Yes, there are ways to slow down the effects of aging on our bodies. In fact, there is an entire industry that is dedicated to anti-aging. No, we’re not talking about a magical potion or elixir of youth. While we would love to have those and offer them to our patients, the one we offer is something more grounded in medicine and research.

In this article, we’ll be focusing on one of the ways to slow down the effects of aging by means of human growth hormone (HGH).

 

What is Human Growth Hormone?

Human Growth Hormone, or HGH, is a naturally occurring set of proteins that are produced deep inside our pituitary gland. They are then distributed throughout our body in the bloodstream.

Naturally, they are produced in short bursts following physical activities, sleep or when experiencing trauma. They are also excreted more often during the night than during the day.

HGH helps the body by acting as a catalyst to stimulate growth in the bones and cartilage to stimulate other beneficial growth effects.

What are the Benefits of Human Growth Hormone?

As we get older, our bodies produce less hormones – resulting in all sorts of symptoms such as lack of energy, lower libido, weight gain and all manners of sleep disorder. This is where the human growth hormone comes into play.

The introduction of HGH stimulates the body to produce its natural growth hormones to slow down the effects of aging. Benefits of human growth hormone include improved energy and stamina, increased muscle mass, reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and increased resilience to common illnesses such as cold, flu and fatigue.

What do you think of HGH, would it be something you’re interested in? It’s worth noting that HGH is not for everyone, and this treatment will require a consultation visit to the doctor and some blood tests. Once the blood tests indicate you are a good candidate, we can proceed with the treatment.

Who doesn’t want to look at their best? With so many skin rejuvenation treatments available out there, it can get confusing to know which one is suitable for your skin.

In this article, we’ll be covering just that – the different types of skin rejuvenation procedures and their effects on your skin.

HIFU

As one of our newer anti-aging treatments, HIFU combines the latest ultrasound technology with a cold 635nm laser to achieve a lifting effect to improve your aesthetic. This popular, non-invasive treatment is capable of reducing wrinkles, fine lines and has a lifting effect to the applied area. Common target areas include the forehead, chin, neck and around the eyes which can look weary due to stress or aging.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is an excellent non-invasive alternative to fat reduction procedures such as liposuction. Despite its use in fat reduction, mesotherapy has its place in skin rejuvenation as well by refining soft lines and contouring parts of your face and body.

Chemical peel

For those wanting a more direct approach to skin rejuvenation, chemical peeling is an option that you can choose. Chemical peeling is an effective method to tackle problematic skin by removing the dead skin cells on the outer layer which can dull your complexion. We understand that each patient will have differing skin conditions, and therefore our doctors will initiate the chemical peel with an assessment of the patient’s skin and prescribe the proper strength of the chemical peel.

Erbium laser

The erbium laser treatment is used for resurfacing the skin for those who want to reduce visible scars from acne or deep lines on their complexion. The treatment makes use of an ablative laser to direct an energy beam that will stimulate the healing of the skin from within. Depending on skin type, multiple treatments may be necessary. Erbium laser treatments are commonly used to treat skin problems on the face, neck, chest.

These are just some of the more common skin rejuvenation procedures performed nowadays, with many more treatments available out there. If you have further questions regarding skin rejuvenation treatments suitable for you, feel free to schedule a consultation session with one of our doctors here at Rejuvie Aesthetic Clinic.

Tattoo removal methods have evolved quite a bit over the years. Prior to the development of laser removal processes, methods for removing tattoos were painful and some were even surgical. Can you imagine going through surgery just to remove a tattoo? What if you had tattoos on sensitive body parts? In addition to being physical or invasive, earlier tattoo removal processes were by no means perfect – requiring multiple visits to the technician and often including many side effects or scars.

Luckily, laser tattoo removals are now readily available and provide a lot of benefits that we’ll be sharing with you in this article.

Minimal scarring

One of the best advantages of laser tattoo removal is the low risk of side effects and scarring. The laser used for tattoo removal is calibrated and designed to penetrate precisely where the ink is located in the skin. Compared to older, more invasive methods that use abrasives to sand the surface of the skin.

Fades tattoo completely

With the advent of laser technology, the laser is able to disperse a wide range of ink colors and pigments accurately for darker colors easier to remove than the light colors.

Quick recovery

The tattoo removal process is not entirely free of discomfort, but it is significantly less painful and also provides a much quicker recovery time, compared to traditional tattoo removal processes. The lasers work by breaking up the ink particles in your skin, which your body will then remove naturally.

Can remove tattoos accurately

The lasers used to disperse the ink pigments are concentrated beams of energy, allowing the doctors to accurately control the laser to remove only certain portions of the tattoo if necessary.

Safest procedure

Perhaps the most important perk of laser tattoo removal is its safety. Laser tattoo removal is by far the safest method to remove ink from your body. It is non-invasive, accurate and does not leave any marks on the body once the treatment is complete.

To remove tattoos, laser removal is undoubtedly the best and safest method currently available. For our readers who are still on the fence regarding laser tattoo removal, or who have lingering questions regarding the procedure, come and schedule a consultation session with our experts at Rejuvie Aesthetic Clinic.

When you want to exercise and train your body, you go to the gym. When you want to fix the alignment of your teeth, you go to a dentist. So what happens when you want to improve your aesthetic looks?

Well, you go to an aesthetic, anti-aging and dental clinic! It can be a daunting experience if this is your first time, and it’s completely understandable if you’re feeling confused. We are here to clarify some points and hopefully help point you in the right direction to choose your aesthetic, anti-aging and dental clinic in Bali.

Professional staff

One of the first things that should be on your list when choosing an anti-aging and aesthetic clinic in Bali is the quality of their staff. You can evaluate this in a variety of different ways. First, you can assess the staff through the quality of their customer service and how well they accommodate your requests and questions. Second, you can gain insight by scheduling a visit to their offices and evaluate how their staff communicates with their patients and how they present themselves in the office. A professionally staffed dental office should also have their doctors and dentist’s credentials available for you to see.

Reputation

Next, you want to choose an aesthetic and dental clinic that has a good track record and reputation. After all, these are the people who will be involved in crafting the aesthetic look you want. Look into customer testimonials online to get an insight into the quality of the treatments they perform. You also want to look for quality signals of their branding. Browse through their website, and look into their services and prices. A reputable aesthetic clinic will have had the resources to inform their prospective clients about their services, even before they step into the clinic or schedule a visit.

Consultation

Once you’ve had time to assess the points above, you can proceed with a consultation session with the doctors at the clinic. Make sure you come prepared with a list of questions about the specific aesthetic or anti-aging treatment you’re interested in. This consultation process is vital in any aesthetic clinic, as it will determine the treatment plans, prices and other aspects of the procedure. You should leave the clinic feeling well-informed about the treatment and have been given time to think about whether or not you would like to proceed.

To conclude, despite the indications detailed above, it is also important to go with an anti-aging and aesthetic clinic that you feel comfortable with. This is your body after all. So, you want to make sure you feel like you can trust them to proceed with the treatment of your choice.

When we look good, we feel good – the correlation between the two is uncanny. Looking good and feeling good about ourselves is an important aspect of enjoying our lives. And perhaps you haven’t been feeling so good about the way you look because of the mole you see in your reflection in the mirror.

We’re a proponent of staying true to our skins and embracing natural beauty, but if you find that mole physically taking away from making you feel good, then perhaps it’s time to change that, with a mole removal treatment.

Now, before you go ahead and proceed, here are some things you should know about the treatment.

Mole removal

Before we jump into discussing the mole removal treatment, we should first discuss the risks and different types of mole removal procedures.

When a mole is removed, the dermatologist is essentially also removing the part of your skin that was attached to it – this means the procedure can leave a scar when not properly performed by a professional. The severity of the scar depends on your age, location and the depth of the mole itself and the type of procedure for removing the mole. It is for this reason that mole removal should be done by a trained professional because the risk of infection and scarring can be high.

In terms of mole removal procedures, the most common types are through surgical excision, laser, shaving and electrocautery. It is best to consult with the dermatologist to ask which procedure is right for you.

Procedure for laser mole removal

Here at Rejuvie Aesthetic Clinic, as the procedure is relatively quick and safe, we routinely perform laser mole removal treatments for our patients. The treatment begins with an initial consultation session with the doctor.

The actual treatment itself can be performed in a single visit, with possible repeated treatments depending on the mole size and location. After the consultation session, the patient will have his or her mole removed via a laser beam that is concentrated on the target location. The lasers will heat the cells and tissue in order to cut them or burst them. As the laser breaks down the pigments of the mole, the body will gradually absorb it and regenerate new cells in its place. The treated area will appear dark initially or even whiter depending on the skin type. And that’s it!  With a laser, it’s really as simple as that, and the procedure is non-invasive, allowing a speedy recovery for the patient.

We hope this article has given insight into what goes on during a mole removal procedure. For those who want to proceed with this treatment, you can first schedule a consultation session with one of our doctors to analyze your skin type and go over the details of the treatment, and it will need time for the natural skin color back.

Our appearance has a significant impact on the way we feel. If we are feeling insecure about how we look, it’ll influence our confidence and self-esteem. If this is the case, unwanted hair is one of those things that can ruin our self-image and confidence. Luckily, there is an easy way to fix that!

Introducing laser hair removal – a treatment that provides an alternative to traditional waxing and shaving, in order to remove unwanted hair. Laser hair removal is a simple procedure that offers a relatively painless and quick way to reduce hair from your body.

However, before you schedule an appointment for laser hair removal, make sure you keep in mind the following things.

Skip the gym

It’s best if you skip the gym after your laser treatment – in fact it’s best to avoid any activities or places that introduce heat to the newly treated area.  This includes the gym, saunas and hot showers. The added heat can increase the risk of creating an environment for bacteria to multiply, which will show up as spots on your skin.

Multiple treatments

With laser hair removal treatments, you are likely to require multiple treatments to completely remove the hair from the target body area. The amount of treatments required will be dependent on a number of individual factors such as skin type, thick hair and hair colors, the target area to be treated, sensitivity of the skin and much more. A quick consultation session should give you the answer as to how many return visits you will need. Make sure you keep that in mind when you’re considering laser hair removal, because this will affect the cost.

Avoid the sun

As we mentioned earlier, exposing your skin to heat (and therefore the sun) after a treatment can potentially cause irritation. Therefore, avoid sunbathing for a few days, or any extended periods of time in the sun.

May need to switch up your skincare

After the laser hair removal treatment, the dermatologist will advise you to avoid certain beauty and skincare products that can potentially cause irritation to the treated area. Things such as scrubs, glycolic acid and retinol creams should be avoided a few days before and after the hair removal treatment.

To conclude, laser hair removal treatments are still considered to be the safest and least painful option to remove unwanted hair from your body. We hope this article has given you insight in to what to expect before undergoing the treatment. For those interested in a laser hair removal treatment in Bali, consult with our experts at Rejuvie Aesthetic Clinic.

Trimming a few centimeters or inches from your body can be easier said than done. There’s now an alternative method known as mesotherapy. For those unfamiliar with the treatment, in this article, we’ll be discussing mesotherapy and how it can help you trim your localized fat.

Mesotherapy

First of all, what is mesotherapy and how is it implemented?

Mesotherapy is a non-invasive procedure that uses fine needles to inject beneficial vitamins and nutrients into the middle layer of the skin, also called the mesoderm.

The idea with mesotherapy is to correct flaws, imperfections and other underlying conditions to help improve your overall complexion. This injection can be used in many ways, including to reduce fat and cellulite. It is often a preferred alternative for those who want to reduce their local fat of the body without resorting to more invasive procedures, such as liposuction or surgery.

Weight loss with mesotherapy

The idea behind mesotherapy fat reduction is that the injection process delivers specific sets of substances under the skin, that no ordinary creams can penetrate down to. These substances then quickly dissolve fat deposits as well as provide beneficial nutrients to the skin.

Patients who want to lose cellulite marks can also benefit from mesotherapy treatment as it targets the mesoderm, where underlying skin conditions can be fixed.

It is a flexible procedure that can be performed on a variety of body parts such as the abdomen, inner thighs and upper arms. Mesotherapy treatment can take up to 6 – 8 sessions to complete the entire procedure and see optimal results.

Mesotherapy can be an excellent fat reduction solution. For those interested in undergoing the procedure here in Bali, you can schedule a consultation with our professional staff at Rejuvie Aesthetic and Anti-Aging Clinic.

Nowadays, there are many different types of diet to help you lose weight, while also being beneficial to your health – you get the idea. With so many to choose from, how do you know which one is right for you? One of those diet regimens you’ve probably heard of, or even know about, is the ketogenic, or keto diet. However, before starting this whole new diet you should probably learn what you’re getting into, and see if you’ve got what it takes to follow through with the diet.

 

What is ketogenic diet?

Ketogenic diet is a diet choice that is characterized by very low-carb intake, offset by a very high-fat intake. A keto diet will have you intake up to 80 percent of your calories from fat alone, then 20 percent from protein, and roughly 5 or less percent from carbohydrates. This drastic reduction in carbs puts your body in a state of ketosis, in which the body burns fat as fuel.

 

Things to know before trying the ‘keto’ diet

Despite seeming like a good option to reduce weight, there are a few side effects from practicing ketogenic diet that you should be aware of.

Muscle loss

Some studies suggest that muscle loss – even with ongoing resistance training – is possible due to the severely limited intake of carbohydrates. This is because muscle building requires both protein and carbs to be effective.

Puts pressure on kidneys

Keto diet can lead to the development of kidney stones, especially when your protein intake consists of processed meat. High intakes of processed animal meats can lead to more acidic urine, putting more pressure on the kidneys.

Low blood sugar

Low blood sugar is a natural byproduct of eating minimal amounts of carbs. The low levels of blood sugar can trigger what is known as hypoglycemia, which can be dangerous for people with diabetes

Can lead to dehydration

As the body slowly adjusts to using ketones from fat for energy, the kidney starts to release more electrolytes as your level of insulin falls (due to the very low carb intake). This can cause a condition known as keto flu, in which individuals start to feel nausea, headaches, fatigue and dehydration among other things. This is a temporary condition, and can be offset by drinking more water than usual, but it certainly is a notable precaution to consider before taking on ketogenic diet.

Despite being a viable option for losing weight, ketogenic diets can be challenging to stick to due to the strict regimen. For those wanting to reduce fat, or who cannot fully commit to ketogenic diets, you can consult with our doctors at Rejuvie Clinic for fat reduction treatments.
