Top Ten Worst Genetic Diseases

Inherited genetic diseases affect millions worldwide. Family health history is the biggest predictor of genetic disease. Research is ongoing to detect and treat genetic disease. The decision to be tested for genetic disease is often difficult and includes many moral and ethical issues. Genetic makeup passed on from parents and grandparents affects a person's life and the life of their own children. The worst genetic diseases are incurable.

Alcoholism

Considered a disease, addiction to alcohol is most likely passed down through genetic makeup. If one or both parents are addicted to alcohol, then the children of those parents appear to have a higher chance of being addicted to alcohol. As of 2010, no specific genes have been identified as the cause of alcoholism.

Breast and Colon Cancer

One in nine women has a chance to develop breast cancer. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 inherited genes predispose a woman to a greater chance of breast or ovarian cancer, but not all breast cancers are due to genetic reasons. A family history of colon cancer means there is a reason to believe it may be genetic. As with other cancers, genetic reasons may not be the only reasons for developing cancer.

Sickle Cell Disease

Having the single expression of the gene for sickle cell does not cause the disease. The gene evolved to protect people from malaria. However, getting the gene from both parents, a double dose causes the red blood cells to “sickle” spontaneously during a stress crisis. The sickled cells get stuck in small capillaries and destroy joints and organs. Eventually, the victim will die of organ failure.

Hymen Reconstruction Surgery

In a world of extreme makeovers where human bodies are now fashioned to order, this may be the ultimate plastic surgery. It is for women only. It is veiled in secrecy. And it fixes a tiny part of the anatomy rarely mentioned in polite company.

You may know it by a variety of slang terms. Technically, it's the hymen, a thin membrane that partially covers the opening of the vagina. A girl who has never had sexual intercourse is supposed to have her hymen intact.

Now, a new surgical technique is giving girls with a past a new future.

"The hymen's a delicate membrane that separates girls from women. where, in a simple, half-hour operation procedure doctor can turns sexually experienced women into surgical virgins.

The surgery is called hymen restoration — a relatively simple procedure that stitches back together what a moment of passion might have shattered.

Here are several reasons why women request a hymenoplasty procedure. These include:

• Cultural or religious reasons: In some cultures, a woman is physically inspected to make sure the hymen is intact
• As part of the rape, incest, sexual abuse healing process: Some women view this as a way to empower themselves and symbolically restore something that was taken from them.
• Injury to the hymen prior to marriage: Tampon use, vigorous exercise or sexual intercourse can cause a hymen to rupture.
• Revirginization: Women who want to give their partner a unique gift.

The 5 Key’s To Gorgeous Skin?

The 5 Key’s To Gorgeous Skin?

Yes, some people win the hereditary lottery when it comes to good skin. "not all skin is created equal "you can’t underestimate the value of genetics."

But genes are just the starting point. Beautiful skin is also about good skin care habits practiced day in and day out.

Here are the secrets to stunning skin.

No. 1 and No. 2: Smoking No, Sunscreen Yes

Imagine two people starting out with the same exact dna. One smoked and sunbathed, the other avoided both. Would that make a difference in the appearance of their skin?

Yes.

Those who smoked and spent lots of time outdoors without wearing sunscreen looked years older than the brother or sister who shunned cigarettes and tanning. They had more fine lines, deeper and more plentiful wrinkles, and skin that was more mottled.

"many of the things that my patients complain about -- dull, rough skin and uneven skin tone -- are related to chronic sun exposure studies have shown that smoking is associated with premature wrinkling.

• Wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against both uva and uvb rays with an spf of 30 or higher, even on cloudy days.
• Reapply your sunscreen every two to three hours you’re outdoors.
• Don't smoke -- for the sake of your overall health as well as your appearance.

No. 3: Keep Skincare Simple

Overuse of products is the biggest mistake people make in their skincare regimens,

Using a lot of different ingredients can be irritating, and some ingredients cancel out each other's benefits.

For example, the acid in salicylic or glycolic acid breaks down ingredients like retinol, hydroquinone, or vitamin c.

The products needed for beautiful skin treatment in mumbai are "a simple cleanser, sunscreen, moisturizer, and a retinoid or retinol."

The simpler your skincare regimen, the more likely you are to stick with it.

No. 4: Give Products Time To Work

Changing your products every couple of weeks can also be counterproductive.

Give them a chance, finish the entire tube or bottle of a skincare potion before you decide how well it works.

You might, though, want to adjust your beauty regimen seasonally, swapping, say, the oil-free moisturizer you use in the summer for one that’s more emollient during the winter when frigid temperatures and indoor heating can rob your skin of moisture.

The exception: if your skin reacts with swelling, redness, or burning to a new product you’ve tried, stop using it immediately.

If not, finish the entire tube or bottle of a skincare potion before you give up on it.

No. 5: A Balanced Life Leads To Your Best Skin

• Start day with a mango, blueberry, and spinach smoothie, shuns processed foods and buy organic fruits and vegetables
• Practices a vigorous form of yoga daily.
• Get seven or more hours of sleep a night.

No. 5: A Balanced Life Leads To Your Best Skin Continued...

All these markers of a healthy lifestyle undoubtedly help

Regular sleep optimizes the natural secretion of human growth hormone, which promotes cell turnover and collagen production. And exercise increases circulation and the flow of nutrients to the skin.

Activities like yoga and meditation help keep stress in check, which in turn reduces the release of stress hormones that worsen conditions like acne, eczema, and rosacea.

Meditating regularly may even make treatment more effective. In one study, people with psoriasis, a condition that causes itchy, scaly skin, listened to meditation tapes while they got ultraviolet light treatments. The results: they healed four times as fast as those who didn't meditate.

The bottom line: the key to gorgeous skin turns out to be a mix of science, common sense, overall good health habits, and a simple stick-to-it skincare regimen.

What is Scar Removal?

A scar is a line or a patch of tissue that replaces normal skin after injury or disease. Scar revision treatment aims to improve the appearance of scars. There are many scar revision treatments available and only the most common are discussed here.

About scars

Every time the skin or tissue is cut or damaged it will heal with a scar. Scars can happen outside and inside your body. For example, you may have a scar on your skin after an injury, but you can also have scars in deeper tissues or on your internal organs where a cut has been made during surgery.

Causes of scars

Any damage to the skin can cause a scar, including:

• Acne or chickenpox
• Burns
• Cuts or grazes
• Surgery

The worse the initial damage is to the tissue, the worse the scar will be. Your skin colour, age and an unhealthy diet and lifestyle (for example smoking) will all affect how your skin reacts to the damage.

Types of scars

There are several different types of scar

• Atrophic scar – a sunken or pitted scar. You may get this type of scarring after having acne or chickenpox.
• Contracture scar – this type of scar causes tightening of the skin and may affect movement in the affected area. You may get this type of scarring if you burn your skin and it can also occur in tissue around an implant (eg breast implant).
• Hypertrophic scar – a red, raised (lumpy) scar. You may get this type of scarring after surgery. They usually fade and soften spontaneously but this may take years.
• Keloid scars – a red, raised scar that extends beyond the original injury (may also be painful and itchy). These may never go soft or flat.
• Stretch marks – this is a type of scar that occurs when the skin is stretched rapidly (eg during a teenage growth spurt or pregnancy).

Treatment of Scars are usually permanent and you may choose to have scar revision treatment. This doesn’t guarantee that the scar will be removed, but the treatments aim to make it less obvious and reduce any tightness it may cause. Your skin colour, age and the type of scarring will influence how much improvement you can expect.

The type of treatment you have will depend on the features of your particular scar, such as its size, location and if it’s raised or depressed. A single type of treatment may be enough or you might need a combination of treatments to achieve the best results.

We have Alma Laser’s world class Radiofrequency Pixel Technology at our centre, and it is First time launched in India by Ageless medica. All the patients have got excellent results of this Radiofrequency Pixel technology machine. We have expert doctors to perform all these treatments, which will consult, diagnosed and treat your problem in a right manner.

Pixel

Unipolar RF based technology

Laser Hair Removal Surgery

Virtually pain-free hair removal technology

Laser Hair removal is best method to remove unwanted hair. While there are many methods to eliminate unwanted hair, very few can eliminate hair regrowth while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. And photoepilation is quickly becoming the most popular. Lasers and light sources use the principle of selective photothermolysis to eliminate hair and its potential regrowth without damaging the surrounding skin. During a laser hair removal treatment, light passes through the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft. This absorption raises the temperature of the hair follicle and thermally destroys the cells responsible for regrowth. The attributes of the light (wavelength, pulse duration and power) are chosen to ensure damage to these cells and not to the rest of the skin.

Ageless Medica provides you two great options for laser hair removal, both providing Alma's virtually pain-free hair removal technology. If your practice is looking to add laser hair removal along with several other aesthetic treatments, then the Harmony®XL's SHR handpiece is an ideal fit for your needs. If your business is looking for a dedicated laser hair removal machine, then the Soprano®XL with its SHR mode is ideal for your location. Either solution enables you to provide Alma's patient-friendly Pain-Free, Hair-Freehair removal procedures.

Technology in use

With HarmonyXL
To perform light-based hair removal with the HarmonyXL SHR handpiece, a large rectangular window emitting broad-spectrum light is applied to the surface of the skin. The energy travels harmlessly through the epidermis and dermis until it strikes the hair follicle, which contains a dense, melanin-rich hair shaft and bulb.

The dark-colored melanin absorbs the light and rises slowly in temperature, destroying the hair-producing cells surrounding the follicle. Because the heat is not sustained, however, no damage occurs outside the follicle area.

With SopranoXL
SopranoXL uses 810-nm diode laser technology, the gold standard in laser hair removal since its introduction in 1998. Unlike earlier systems, however, SopranoXL energy penetrates deep into the dermis (where the hair follicle is located) with high average power and a rapid 10 pulse-per-second repetition rate.

Using CW Pulse™ technology allows homogeneous distribution and more effective fluence to be delivered with improved patient comfort. The unique pulse structure of SopranoXL incorporates two discrete pulses. The first is a preheated long pulse that safely heats the tissue; the second short pulse effectively destroys the hair follicle and its surrounding vasculature.

Key advantages for physicians

• IN-Motion™ technology - virtually pain-free hair removal without the use of anesthesia or numbing gels
• Permanent hair reduction of all pigmented hair on all skin types, including tanned skin
• Low cost of ownership with no disposables required

Key advantages for patients

• Comfortable treatment with little to no irritation
• Effective permanent reduction of hair
• Little to no chance of side effects
