USE YOUR OWN BODY’S FAT AND TISSUES FOR NATURAL BREAST ENGLARGEMENT WITH FAT TRANSFERS FOR YOUR BREASTS
Breast Augmentation Dubai | 6 July 2023
If you’ve ever heard someone jokingly say they wish they could transfer more fat from their waist to their breasts, we have some good news for you: It is actually possible using a procedure called “fat transfer breast augmentation.”
This surgery involves injecting breasts with fat that has been liposuctioned from a certain body part (the thighs, arms, love handles, or back). This surgery is perfect for people who only desire a little increase in breast size. It can help lessen imperfections, improve breast form, and increase your breasts by using your own natural fat cells. Additionally, individuals who already have implants can increase the size of their breasts even more by having fat transferred into them rather than having an implant replacement treatment. Breast augmentation is always breast augmentation, regardless of whether you label it “augmentation light.”
It’s important to keep in mind that even though a surgeon may just employ local anaesthetic, fat transfer to the breasts is still a surgical operation. Even though the recovery after fat grafting usually only lasts three to five days and entails little discomfort and swelling, it’s still crucial to follow your surgeon’s instructions for complete healing.
Fat transfer procedures essentially accomplish two goals at once, which accounts for their popularity. In the end, the patient is able to define their shape by contouring and moulding their body by eliminating fat from a region with excess fat. While waiting, the fat can be used once again to augment the breasts in a way that feels and looks very natural. Hearing this idea puts a lot of women at ease. In the end, there is no risk of an allergic response, a rupture, or implant rejection with fat grafting.
MINIMALLY-INVASIVE EAR PINNING – EAR PINNING OR OTOPLASTY
Cosmetic Clinic Dubai | 1 July 2023
The ears may be the first body component to grow to adult size. If the ear stands out too far, it could be seen. 2% of people believe that their ears stick out abnormally. The problem, which is often acquired, is caused by the absence of the unique ligament folds in the ear.
Bullying at school is typically the root cause of the majority of big ear issues in young people. Most medical professionals advise avoiding surgery to treat children’s protruding ears until they are old enough to understand what it entails. The youngster is likely to participate at this age and find pleasure in the outcomes. Keep in mind that not everyone who has an obvious ear wants it corrected.
If medical operations are performed on children before they are old enough to understand them, they will suffer needlessly. Therefore, because the ear ligament is normally sensitive in the early years, exercises for different ears are rarely carried out on children under the age of five.
The exact modification of easily identifiable ears is referred to as “otoplasty”. The majority of medical professionals advise delaying this therapy until the child’s ears are fully formed, which is often around age eight. The right of the kid to make their own decisions is supported by certain specialists. There are several successful strategies that may be used with each child to address this issue; there isn’t just one.
Children frequently receive therapy that also includes a general sedative, even though adults can receive treatment while under local anaesthetic. A cut is made behind the ear, at the notch between the ear and the side of the head, during the procedure. A little portion of the ligament bowl (concha) may have been cut, the front of the ear may have been cut, or the ligament may have been secured with a fastener hidden in the rear if the ear was reshaped or twisted towards the head. When the skin is sealed off, the region is frequently covered with a bandage or piece of clothing to provide protection.
THE TOP 3 BENEFITS OF BOTOX®
Botox Dubai | 28 June 2023
Patients often ask me about the science of Botox, or how it works. This FDA approved drug is what is known as a neuromodulator – a messenger released from a neuron in the central nervous system, or in the periphery, that affects groups of neurons, or effector cells that have the appropriate receptors. In other words, I inject the Botox directly into the underlying muscle, which then relaxes and smooths out the appearance of the skin that covers it. The one injection typically lasts about three months.
Let’s explore 3 benefits of Botox:
Benefit of Botox #1: Helps Relieve Migraines
The first benefit of Botox is that it helps relieve migraines. Chronic migraines can be debilitating. I remember a good friend in college who regularly had to close all of the blinds and curtains in her apartment for hours at a time when a migraine struck. It didn’t matter what she had scheduled for the day, she was down for the count. While that was certainly inconvenient for a college student, the impact is much greater for adults with jobs, families and other responsibilities.
The International Headache Society defines a chronic migraine as a “headache occurring on 15 or more days/month for more than 3 months, which, on at least 8 days/month, has the features of migraine headache.” In addition, the headaches last for an extended duration and the pain can be more severe. No wonder the people who suffer from this condition – and their families – want to get rid of the pain to improve their quality of everyday life.
Benefits of Botox #2: Alleviation of TMJ
The second benefit of Botox is that it can alleviate pain caused by TMJ disorder. Anyone who has been diagnosed with TMD (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) or TMJ (temporomandibular joint) understands the lifetime of discomfort and sometimes downright pain that it can elicit. Historically, people with TMJ utilize their nightguard regularly – I know some who can’t sleep or even nap without it – but did you know that Botox is now commonly used to help relieve the symptoms? People with TMJ generally experience grinding of the teeth which causes headaches, uncomfortable jaw tension and sometimes lockjaw. Others find themselves unable to sleep due to the discomfort, so not only are they groggy during the day, but they also have chronic facial pain. It’s no way to live.
Benefits of Botox #3: Botox Cosmetic Takes the Years Off
The final benefit of Botox is that it can take years off your appearance and make you feel sexy again. I can’t tell you how many patients of all ages come into the clinic and say “When did I turn into my mother?” While we all love mommy dearest, that doesn’t mean that we want to look like the family matriarch quite yet. Enter Botox to save the day, since a minor injection or two can take years off of a complexion.
Most people use Botox to target moderate to severe smile lines, frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines. We all love to laugh, but those years of sly smirks and full-blown belly laughs take their toll on our faces. Simply by smoothing certain lines on the face we can minimize the effect of all of those happy moments. In addition, those pesky lines can be caused by a loss of elasticity or collagen, genetics, dehydrated skin, smoking and a cause quite common in sunny Dubai: sun damage. The years worshipping the sun on our beautiful beaches have life-long side effects. While smile lines around the eyes or laugh lines around the mouth are more noticeable as the years go by, they’re easily treated with Botox.

BREAST AUGMENTATION WITH FAT TRANSFER
Breast Augmentation Dubai | 16 June 2023
Fat grafting, also known as autologus fat transfer, has emerged as a promising technique for breast augmentation without involving breast implants. In this technique, the surgeon will remove excess fat tissue from other areas of the body – usually buttocks, thighs and abdomen – using liposuction. The tissue is then processed and purified for injection into the breast area to enhance the breast size.
During the initial consultation, the surgeon will explain all aspects of breast augmentation with fat transfer and discuss its pros and cons in comparison to traditional breast implants.
Technique
Fat grafting has been traditionally used for buttock enhancement, lip enhancement, and other relatively minor areas. However, its use as a breast augmentation procedure is still fairly new. But a growing number of women now seek this technique because the results can be more subtle and more refined with fat transfer. The condition is that the surgeon should have the right skills to sculpt a desirable and natural looking shape and size of breasts.
Patients should be aware that in a few cases, the fat injected into the breast area may be reabsorbed by the body over the years.
This can result in the breast losing some volume in the long run. Therefore, some plastic surgeons may initially add more fat than what the patient may currently need. In any case, the pre-requisite for this procedure is that the patient should have adequate excess fat tissue available in donor areas to perform a safe and successful fat transfer surgery.
Benefits
Some of the key benefits of fat transfer breast augmentation over breast implants include:
Autologous Fat
The procedure involves use of the patient’s own excess fat tissue instead of synthetic implants. This ensures complete biocompatibility because the fat belongs to the patient’s own body. Breast implants, on the other hand, will trigger the body’s immune response, which can sometimes lead to capsular contracture. Implant rippling, shifting of the implant from its position, and implant leakage or damage are other concerns with breast implants, which are entirely avoided in case of fat transfer augmentation.
Enhanced Body Contours
An incidental gain with fat grafting breast enhancement is that excess fat is removed from one or more areas where the patient already wants fat reduction.
Liposuction procedure is usually performed to remove excess fat tissue, which will create more even and youthful looking contours in the donor areas. With slimmer contours in other areas and fat transfer in the breasts, it will further accentuate the breast appearance and create an overall sculpted aesthetic look.
Natural Touch and Feel
Many patients report that breast enhancement with fat grafting mimics the sensation and feel soft, much like the natural breasts.
BREAST ENLARGEMENT WITH IMPLANTS

CONTOURING THE JAW LINE
Fillers in Dubai | 9 June 2023
Perioral lines, loss of volume to the lips, nasolabial folds and marionette lines are all common lower facial concerns that patients present with when seeking aesthetic treatment. In addition, a sagging jawline is a key indicator of facial ageing and often has a significant impact on a patient’s appearance. The combined effects of gravity, progressive bone resorption, decreased tissue elasticity, and redistribution of subcutaneous fullness all contribute to the manifestations of facial ageing;1 however, there are a number of non-surgical options available to help lift and contour the lower face.
Consultation
Every patient benefits from a full face consultation where I look at the structure, the soft tissues and the proportions of their face. It’s interesting for patients to learn how each part of the face relates to the bit beside it, and never is this more true than for the lower face, which shows the effects of everything that happens above it. In my consultations, I will talk through each part of the patient’s face and point out the cause and effect of each aesthetic concern. Doing so, allows patients to understand that lower face ageing is generally a result of ageing of the mid-face and helps patients to recognise that only addressing one concern is not necessarily going to have an overall positive effect. Performing a full face clinical analysis helps to understand where I can get an uptake of extra skin and still keep results looking natural. I use specific measurements tailored to each patient to know where to treat to ensure that the patient looks natural, but also better.
Dermal fillers
Administering dermal filler treatment can offer significant improvement to the contour of the jawline. While hyaluronic acid (HA) can be used successfully, A treatment of choice is RADIESSE (+), a dermal filler composed of small calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres that is suspended in a soft gel matrix. Once injected, it aims to provide immediate volume and correction, as well as stimulate the skin to produce its own natural collagen.
Patients get dynamic results as it can really sharpen the jawline. As it contains CaHA, resorption of the gel occurs over three to six months so you will get increased dermal depth, more collagen and more/better quality elastin. Regardless of the type of filler used, the use of a cannula when treating the jawline to avoid the risk of injecting an artery. The facial artery in that region is protected by the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS), so it’s not easy to accidently go underneath that fascia with a cannula. By using a cannula I can stay in the plain where there are no major arteries and I would feel it if I moved out of this area. Successful results are achieved by injecting subdermally with lots of little passes. I examine the jawline in three dimensions, aiming to straighten it – particularly with the formation of jowls – sharpen and then contour it. In my experience, treatment results usually last for a year, however, in some cases it can last up to 18 months.
DERMAL FILLERS – ARE YOU CONTEMPLATING DERMAL FILLERS?
Fillers in Dubai | 4 June 2023
Injectable Dermal Fillers have been used since the 1980’s to remove facial lines and wrinkles. The most popular Dermal Fillers are Hyaluronic Acid (HA) or Collagen but over a hundred different products are now available. Years of sun-damage combined with the natural aging process results in a depletion of collagen and elastin, with loss of elasticity and thinning of the skin causing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Thinning of the subcutis results in loss of volume or fullness of the facial features or hands, resulting in the typical aged appearance. This is commonly seen on the face, neck and hands.
Dermal Fillers can provide natural replenishment for your skin with a safe, effective and long term improvement of your appearance. The best choice of filler for each patient will be determined at consultation. Dermal Fillers are very effective for structural reshaping of the Nose, Cheeks and Chin.
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal Fillers are used to replenish lost volume in the soft tissues or augment tissues to improve facial shape, contours or definition. Belotero and Restylane are Hyaluronic acid products which replace your body’s natural Hyaluronic acid. Belotero is made up of a unique structure of monophasic hyaluronic acid which means that there are no blue lines in the treatment area and can be used directly under the skin. It’s patented CPM (Cohesive Polydensified Matrix) means that it integrates directly with the tissue of the skin giving a smoother, more natural appearance. Radiesse is a compound product of methacrylate and hyaluronic acid used for longer lasting augmentation or enhancement. Ellanse is made of polycaprolactone microspheres in a water-based carboxymethylcellulose gel and is particularly recommended for hand rejuvenation.
Dermal fillers are highly Bio-compatible with the skin, so adverse reactions are minimal. Each dermal filler has specific advantages in different areas of the face so the most suitable product for you will be tailored to your aims.
Am I suitable for Dermal Filler treatment?

Botulinum toxin treatment may also be beneficial to relax active facial lines. You should be aware of the limitations, side effects and risks before deciding if Dermal Filler treatment is right for you.
How is Dermal Filler treatment performed?
Initial consultation will determine the goals of treatment, make note of any associated medical conditions and plan the optimum treatment to achieve the ideal result in each patient. Treatment is carried out in the out-patient setting and takes 30 – 60 minutes. A topical local anaesthetic cream is applied to the area(s); face, nose or hands. For most areas the Magic Needle is used, which provides the most comfortable and atraumatic treatment possible which is greatly superior to a standard needle treatment.
ENLARGED MALE BREASTS (GYNECOMASTIA)
Cosmetic Clinic Dubai | 1 June 2023
Gynaecomastia is the benign (non-cancerous) growth of male breast tissue and can be due to a number of causes. It may be due to hormone imbalance or as a consequence of medication you are taking. It can also be due to alcohol excess or recreational drug abuse. Your doctor will discuss the cause of your gynaecomastia with you. Along with causing swelling of the breast and nipple, gynaecomastia can be uncomfortable and the nipple can become sensitive.
HOW CAN GYNAECOMASTIA BE TREATED?
Some cases of gynaecomastia will get better without any form of treatment. If one of your medications is thought to be causing the gynaecomastia, it may improve with changing or stopping a particular tablet. Your doctor will discuss this with you.
Whilst gynaecomastia itself can be uncomfortable and unsightly, it is not dangerous and no harm will come from having it. When cancer has been ruled out, many men are happy to have no treatment.
Another form of treatment is to have medication. These medications are often good at reducing discomfort and sensitivity but may not reduce the size of the breast.
The third form of treatment involves surgery to your breast.
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF GYNAECOMASTIA
There are three main surgical procedures which can be undertaken:
Liposuction
Liposuction is used to remove the fatty tissue under a general anaesthetic. Small incisions (cuts) are made on the chest wall. A small metal tube (cannula) is used to suck out the fatty tissue. The incisions are then sutured to give a flatter, firmer and better-contoured chest. Any stitches will be of the dissolving type and so do not need to be removed.
Excision of Gynaecomastia
In excisional surgery, I will make a cut around the nipple to remove the breast tissue. This may be combined with liposuction of the breast tissue at the same time.
Male Breast Reduction
If the breast is very large more tissue and skin may have to be removed. This will give more scars. The degree of scarring will depend on how much skin needs to be removed. I will advise you about this.
After Surgery
After surgery for gynaecomastia your breasts will look discoloured and feel firm and swollen. You may need to have a drain (a fine plastic tube) inserted into the breast during the operation. This will be removed seven days after your operation. You should be able to go home the same day. You may be advised to wear a corset for up to six weeks after the operation to help with the swelling. I will advise you where these can be bought. You will not be able to drive home after your operation and it may be two to three weeks before you can drive.
The dressings can be removed after 7-10 days and you should be able to return to work after two weeks. For the first three weeks after the operation, don’t lift anything heavy or do heavy manual work. Most men resume normal activities within two to three weeks.
Risks and Complications
All surgery carries with it some risk. Common side effects of a general anaesthetic include nausea and vomiting. As mentioned earlier, the chest can be swollen and bruised following the operation.
Specific Complications
Haematoma
This is bleeding into the tissues following surgery. It can occasionally lead to patients returning to theatre to stop the bleeding or remove the blood.
Wound infection
This can occur after any kind of surgery and may need treatment with antibiotics or a return to theatre. If your wound becomes red and inflamed you should contact your doctor.
Deep vein thrombosis
This can happen after any operation or general anaesthetic. The risks are reduced by wearing preventative stockings (TEDS) for two weeks.
Poor wound healing
With a male breast reduction problems may occur with the wound. The blood supply to the area around the vertical scar is at its poorest. This may delay healing and very occasionally the wound may break down and leave a small raw area. This gradually heals with time but may take several weeks.
Nipple complications
The operation by its nature partially disrupts some of the blood supply to the back of the nipple. There is a small risk therefore of the nipple dying resulting in its loss. There is a risk of loss or alteration in sensation to the nipple.
Asymmetry
There may be some lasting differences in the size and shape of your breasts following surgery. Most men are asymmetrical prior to the operation.
Scarring
Initially the scars will be bright red lines – in most cases the scars will heal satisfactorily and soften becoming much paler in time, usually within twelve months. Some patients have a tendency to form red and lumpy scars or keloid scars which are broad raised scars. Such scarring will be permanent.
FOLLOW UP
You will be given an appointment to return to the clinic in 7-10 days where the dressings and drain(s) will be removed and the wounds inspected. You will also be reviewed approximately six weeks after your surgery once the bruising and swelling has completely settled.
LONG TERM OUTLOOK
If lipofilling is performed and only fat is removed, weight gain can make the gynaecomastia return. If the breast tissue itself is removed, as in the excision surgery or male breast reduction there is a chance the breast tissue can regrow. You will have medical photography before and after surgery of your chest. There will be nothing which will identify you to anyone else on these and they are used as a record of your treatment.
