Split Earlobe Repair

A torn earlobe is one of the most common problems effecting people with pierced ears. These problems can occur from an enlarged hole, heavy earrings, or an accident where an earring was pulled.

Once the ear has been torn there are several split earlobe repair procedures that can be done to correct the problem. However you should know whether or not wearing earrings again is something that you are interested again. We understand that most women probably will want to wear earrings again while men probably wouldn't mind not wearing them. Depending on your situations there are different surgeries that can work for you.

If you don't want to wear earrings again simply closing the split earlobe is the best option. It's a simple procedure however your ears will not be as flexible so wearing earrings again is not recommended. However if you want to wear earrings again a z-plasty or flap procedure is a great option. It will close the tear but there will still be flexibility for another earring. It may take up to 8 weeks before the patient can get a new piercing.

Causes and Removal of Acne

Acne is caused by the oil glands in the skin becoming irritated and obstructed. Typically occurring in teenagers, acne can also be an adult problem that can lead to embarrassment, low self esteem and depression.

Some cases of acne are small, however many cases are considered pustular or even severe cystic acne which can leave scars on your skin that can be hard to remove and make you feel like everyone is staring at you like a janet jackson super bowl video! However, thanks to new technology you don't have to feel that way. Acne scar removal is possible without dealing with prescriptions, creams, or acne systems that don't work.

The new treatment, Levulan, uses a natural chemical levulenic acid combined with blue light. Levulan is applied to the skin and is activated by a special blue light and has been used extensively since 1999 to treat a variety of skin problems.

As with all treatments there are some pros and cons that should be considered. However, the great thing about Levulan is not that the pros outweigh the cons (which they do), the cons are not severe. So many times we see new patients come to us because they are tired of dealing with powerful side affects to treatments like Accutance which can cause birth defects, liver changes, mood depression and much more.

Levulan is a great treatment because it is rapid and predictable without scarring, surgery or internal side effects. As a result, skin is refreshed after a few treatments. The side effects are mild and include red and broken skin for a few days following treatment.
