WHAT CAUSES HAIR LOSS?
The average person sheds between 50-100 hairs daily, but this is a small amount and is not noticeable. However, some individuals suffer from excessive hair loss and balding, known as alopecia and this leaves large bald patches on the scalp which can appear unsightly.
WHAT IS I-GROW LASER?
The I-Grow Laser is an advanced helmet which utilises laser technology to aid the regrowth of hair. Using Low Level Laser Light (LLLL), the helmet beams 51 red laser and LED lights to strengthen and reenergise the cells that make up your hair follicles. It is a hands-free device that is non-invasive, and can be used in the convenience of your own home without the need for supervision.

It is easy to use as all you need to do is wear the helmet for 25 minutes once every 2 days, for a period of 4-6 months. This may vary depending on the condition of your scalp, and it is advisable to consult your doctor for a recommended treatment cycle using this device for optimum results.

WHO CAN USE I-GROW LASER?
You may be a suitable candidate for this product if you have:
1. Transitional Hair Loss

What is PRP?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a cutting edge form of regenerative medicine that is becoming widely used for cosmetic therapy. The important part of PR is that it uses your own blood as part of the restorative technique in which the plasma of your own blood is concentated and re-injected back into the tissues of your skin. The fact that PRP uses your own blood eliminates the risk of allergy or infections.

Platelets are the key to the body's natural self healing ability to stop bleeding and repair damaged blood vessels and cells. The concentrated platelets in PRP contain tremendous amounts of bioactive proteins containing specific growth factors that promote tissue repair, angiogenesis (capillary formation), and collagen production. These growth factors initiate accelerated tissue repair and have positive effects on skin rejuvenation.

Bertindak Sebelum Busuk

Pernahkah anda berdepan dengan situasi berada di dalm satu lif dengan seorang wanita cantik tetapi mengeluarkan bau badan yang amat tidak menyenangkan?

Bau badan atau "body odour sebenarnya merupakan sesuatu yang normal. Setiap orang menpunyai bau unik yang berbeza bergantung kepada pemakanan, kesihatan, ubat yang diambil serta jantina.

Peluh dan bau badan boleh berlaku ketika bersenam, berada di kawasan yang panas, gemuruh, cemas atau ketika tertekan. 

Masalah timbul jika bau badan itu keterlaluan atau istilah perubatanya bromhidrosis sehingga menggangu orang sekeliling serta kualiti hidup seseorang.

Menurut Pakar Dermatologi Hospital Pantai Kuala Lumpur, Dr.Nazirin Ariffin, bromhidrosis secara amnya bukanlah perkara serius, cuma ia kadangkala adalah petanda sesuatu penyakit. 

"Selalunya bau badan boleh ditangani dengan mudah dengan menukar cara hidup serta pemakanan. 

"Namun ada kes apabila pelbagai cara telah dicuba tetapi mengalami masalah bau badan yang teruk sehingga menggagu rutin seharian.

"Ada juga yang tidak sedar bau badan mereka itu sebenarnya petunjuk mengenai penyakit yang mereka hadapi seperti tiroid terlalu aktif, hypoglisemia dan diabetes," ulasnya ketika ditemui baru-baru ini.

Terangnya, ada juga kes terpencil iaitu penyakit genetik (trimethylaminuria) atau sindrom bau ikan yang membuatkan pesakit berbau hanyir.
Lelaki juga ramai yang mengalami masalah bau badan seperti wanita


TRIMETHLYLAMINURIA membuatkan pesakit berbau seperti ikan yang sudah busuk.


Rawatan
Jika bukan berpunca daripada masalah kesihatan lain, beberapa rawatan dapat dilakukan bagi menangani masalah bau badan dengan cara mengurangkan peluh.

Menurut Dr.Nazirin, produk antipeluh yang mengandungi aluminium klorida dapat menyekat liang peluh untuk sementara waktu lalu mengurangkan jumlah peluh yang keluar ke permukaan kulit.

Botulinium toxin atau lebih dkenali sebagai BOTOX® pula adalah rawatan alternatif mengurangkan peluh yang berlebihan di bahagian ketiak.

Selain itu, ada tablet yang boleh digunakan bagi mengurangkan pengeluaran peluh.

Bertemu Doctor
Walaupun bau badan boleh ditangani sendiri, anda beberapa keadaan memerlukan pesakit bertemu dengan doctor.

Apa yang penting perhatikan tubuh badan anda. Jika anda perasan badan anda berpeluh lebih banyak daripada biasa tanpa sebab, segera bertemu dengan doctor.

Tip Penjagaan
