Avatar f tn Hello, I went to the doctor to have a filler injected into the eyes dark circles area, the syringe with the gel (hyaluronic acid) was not new, I know because he took it out of a box but the blister was not sealed, I also saw that the gel in the syringe was not completely full, I saw that he took a needle with a cover from the blister, so I think the needle was new, and he placed it on the tip of the syringe with gel, I am worried that the gel (hyaluronic acid) has been contaminated with the bloo
Avatar m tn Because you are asking about hyaluronic acid, and because of the recent addition of GAG's to pharmacy shelves, I think it's important to address a few points about the uses of these compounds therapeutically. On the up side, hyaluronic acid is the same from whatever source it is isolated, and it is so common in the body that it can be used as a hypoallergenic surgical material for reconstructing and building up tissues that are lost.
Avatar n tn Genigel, the new treatment, contains hyaluronic acid - a sub-stance found in the connective tissues of the body. When applied to gums, it provides a sticky film in which new cells and blood vessels can grow." "A week later, the teeth began to firm up. A month later, I could chew on them. The gel has actually made my gums grow back, which is something no amount of brushing or anti-bacterial mouthwashes could ever do.
Avatar m tn Could it cause vision problems, I have seen that the main ingredient of restylane is Hyaluronic acid, I have found a topical cream that is 75% hyaluronic acid, I know this wont work as well but do you think this is an option or not even worth spending hte money on the cream. Any comments or experiences would be great.
Avatar f tn Hello, Unfortunately you have got depigmentation and sunken scars after cautery which are side effects of this procedure. There is no topical treatment for this and I would suggest collagen or hyaluronic filling or laser resurfacing. Please discuss these treatment options with your cosmetologist. I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts.
Avatar m tn clean cleansing gel that works really good. I works on both swelling and redness and has done wonders for me. Hope it can help you to.
Avatar f tn I have used the Somaluxe Redness Repair for 7 months both morning and night and I am delighted to say this stuff has completely cleared all symptoms. I use dove soap bar in the morning to wash my face and I apply the Somaluxe Redness Repair once and again before bed. I highly recommend this product and it sounds dramatic to say but its given me my confidence and life back.
Avatar n tn Then a couple days later I started having bad pain on that left side in my mouth, the teeth, both upper and lower and gums hurt and ache, especially with hot and cold and sometimes just eating in general. I went to the dentist Tuesday and found out I have 8 cavities. I couldn't believe it. Four of the eight are severe, exposing the root or pulp? Something like that. The four that are super bad are on the left side, the side that hurts, two upper and two lower.
Avatar f tn Etching gel is a mild acid which is used to open up nodules in the tooths dentine layer, this makes the bonding process more effective, Thus giving your filling a better chance of working. The effects of etching only lasts whilst the tooth stays dry so even if the etching gel was placed on your other teeth as soon as your saliva hit your other teeth the gel would have become inaffective.
Avatar f tn Given you mentioned in an earlier post : "am seeing multiple physicians without diagnosis to date. Several of these physicians are leaning toward the possibility of lupus, lupoid hepatitis, or autoimmune hepatitis. To date, testing has ruled out viral hepatitis, ' ------------------------------- This is a discussion forum for those looking for info. and support regarding HCV.
Avatar f tn I have a two part question: First Part, soon after a recent filling (lower left middle molar) and much freezing as I'm one of those troublesome pts who is quite difficult to freeze, I lost control of my eyelid on the right side. The dentist thought it strange as he put it, "the left side has nothing to do with the right side" Nonetheless, I struggled to keep my right eyelid open for a short period as it kept shutting on me.
Avatar f tn The newest treatment for age spots is an alpha hydroxy acid gel or beta hydroxy acid gel. Retin-A cream, alpha hydroxyacid peels, and liquid nitrogen therapy are other options. I hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
Avatar n tn Just stop taking the gel and allow time for the medicine to get out your system. You will get your sensitivity back. Also refrain from masturbation because as you constantly satisfy yourself, you won't know if your soft erections are due to masturbation or the gel.
Avatar f tn Refresh gel does not cause numbness.
Avatar n tn 5 hours and my face was sunburnt even after using 15spf and two days later my upper right eyelid is swollen alot with bags under both eyes and a funny kind of numbness on the right side of my face. It is now July 8th and my face still seems puffy and when I press on my face in the cheek area you can feel the swelling in the eye area. I have been taking ibuprofren 400mg every 4 hrs since yesterday. Is there anything else I can do and how long does this last?
Avatar n tn I have tried Olay regenerist, ROC and Garnier Nutritionist and currently seen ad for Hydroxatone that contains matrixly 3000, argireline and hyaluronic acid and is there anything you can recommend I use that can help minimize the wrinkles while adding collagen and elasticity to my skin. I am tired of products that offer a lot but delivers nothing. I want a product I can stick to. SO PLEASE what would you recommend I buy and how should I use it.

You also have hyaluronic acid for viscosupplementation which can be directly injected into the joint. Take care!
Avatar m tn I understand this is a fairly untested procedure for the toe, I have searched the medical literature and I have found very little, for instance: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17144968 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0891842211000061 Thank you.
Avatar f tn Almost 3 weeks now I have done LASIK in both my eyes and I am still suffering from a persistent unilateral upper eyelid edema. Its swell is diffused and it is totally painless... It's not even red... I can feel it's thickened and I can feel the heaviness. Artificial tears and cold compressions were not of any help. Is there a treatment for this? I am very frustrated... because I know a chronic upper eyelid edema can lead to ptosis... please help me.
Avatar m tn Hello Doctor. I have been having immense pressure on my upper eyelid and upper eyelid twitching constantly for 6 months. Is it possible that the shape of my upper eyelid changed or will change even slightly?
Avatar m tn But the bulb on top my cheek seems to be loose and my outer/bottom eyelid is filled with dark blood, as in coagulated sort of and there is some redness in the white part of my outer white of eye but not the inner. I am almost certain I have broken my zygo(whatever) and or cheek or orbital something. The sensation under my eye is scary because I can barely push the outer cheek and it is felt all the way underneath my eye into the corner. I am without insurance and I read 50% need surgery.
