Regularly popping your pimples? You better stop that bad habit.

If you don’t want your skin, especially in your face, to slowly lose its glow, you should stop your pimple-popping habit.

It’s easy to understand why most of us develop a habit of popping our pimples on a regular basis. It’s naturally tempting to pop a fresh pimple to instantly get rid of it.

However, little did you know that popping pimples doesn’t necessarily solve the problem. In fact, popping a pimple can actually push bacteria deep into the skin, causing more redness and swelling instead of getting rid of them. Aside from that, squeezing your pimples might even lead to marks and acne scars.

Here are some of the bad things that can happen to your skin if you don’t stop resisting the urge to pop those pimples:

  • Creating more pimples instead
  • Worsening the pimple
  • Spreading the bacteria from a pimple
  • Tearing your skin
  • Prevent pimples from complete and timely healing

Popping Pimples? Don’t!

As tempting and itchy as it is, your patience is much needed when it comes to dealing with pimples. Getting rid of pimples really takes some time.

Normally, it takes several days to a week and a half for a pimple to completely heal on its own. It is important for you to stop touching and irritating a pimple for it heal in time. Squeezing pimples is preventing them to fully heal.

It’s always best to prohibit yourself from popping your pimples. Allow your skin to naturally take care of that on its own.

Popping pimples are really bad for your skin. Now that you know, drop the pimple popping habit. You should leave it to dermatologists. Ours at Shinagawa Aesthetics is more than capable of solving your pimple problems.

CATALYS: Allowing the Most Precise Cataract Surgery

CATALYS: Allowing the Most Precise Cataract Surgery

/1 Comment/in , /by

A surgery is the only treatment for cataract. The cloudy natural lens of the patient is removed and replaced with a clear artificial lens implant which will restore fully the patient’s vision. This must be done in a safe, painless and accurate manner.

In traditional cataract surgery, the surgeon uses hand-held metal instruments to create the incisions, access the cataract, and break up the cataract into smaller pieces which can be vacuumed out through a procedure called phacoemulsification. Even in the hands of the most experienced eye surgeon, sometimes these steps can be challenging.

However, at Shinagawa, we offer Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (Premium Cataract Surgery) which uses the CATALYS Laser Precision System.

The CATALYS has several advantages over Traditional Cataract Surgery:

  • Accurate incision placement for a better outcome
  • Precision laser technology
  • Safer access to the cataract via pre-cut opening
  • Laser softens the cataract, making the removal more efficient and simpler
  • The laser can also address the small amount of astigmatism
  • Customized treatment with 3D imaging (enables the Surgeon to create a precise treatment plan uniquely tailored for the eye/s)
  • A gentle approach to surgery (with very little to no discomfort at all)
  • Using less energy, it allows a much faster recovery and restores vision in no time

The CATALYS Laser Precision System allows for safer, efficient, highly reproducible cataract surgery which leads to better visual outcomes.

The expertise of our experienced surgeons along with the power of the CATALYS have already satisfied patients and enabled them to regain a bright vision.
