Skin protects the internal organs of the body. Structured in three layers, the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue, the skin acts as a protector against parasites and bacteria. It produces vitamin D, shows the signs of drug, alcohol and stress abuse, leaves marks and shows symptoms of diseases like jaundice and chickenpox. Taking care of your skin not only gives you a youthful look but also protects your body. Skin surgery is often required to reconstruct deformities caused by burns or injury. Skin grafts are also done to hide the aging effects that tell on skin.



Skin Disorders

Stevens Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal neurolysis

Both Stevens Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal neurolysis skin diseases are deadly skin diseases known to be the results of reaction to drugs. In some cases it is caused by bacterial infection. These skin disorders cause pain and anxiety. It is always advisable to take proper medical advice on the onset of the disease before it goes to any secondary infection. Stevens Johnson syndrome can start with common cold, cough, headache and fever. This is often followed by red rashes all over the body which begin to form blisters around the mouth, eyes and vaginal area. The mucous membrane inflames and toxic epidermal neurolysis affect the skin peeling it away in sheets. Hair and nails can also tear off in the process. With Toxic epidermal neurolysis the infection spreads to the exposed areas. This disease makes the skin look burnt.

Psoriasis and Vitiligo

Psoriasis is a serious skin disorder which is long lasting. Characterized by open sores in the skin which becomes covered with white scales and forms patches of dead skin in the arms, chest, back, legs, nails and scalp.

Vitiligo is another skin disease which forms white patches on the skin caused melanocytes that gives color to the skin. The white patches appear when melanocytes die. This skin disorder is often caused by stressful events in life.

Cosmetic Dermatology

Facial Blood Vessels

Genetic factors, environmental issues, spicy food, alcohol, extremes of weather all add up to the development of facial capillaries and roscaea. The development of blood vessels and the ruddiness of the face can often result in adult acne.

Effective treatment of facial blood vessels is best done by laser technology, the pulse dye laser. The V-Beam laser is the most advanced form of pulse dye laser. Broken blood vessels can be dealt with anywhere in the face including the nose, cheek and the chin.

Brown Spots

Exposure to the sun and genetic factors are reasons enough for those “liver spots” or “age spots” on the cheek and nose. Though it is generally believed hat these brown spots are due to age but in contrary they are spots which appear due to exposure to the sun and can appear in arms and chests too.

Variety of laser treatment can effectively remove these brown spots or lentigines. Q-switched Alexandrite or Nd-YAG lasers are used for the treatment of these spots. Photofacials and intense pulse light sources can also be used to remove age spots. Those who would additionally like to treat their skin for the fine wrinkles, textures, acne, pores, scars and other skin imperfections can undertake treatment with the fraxel laser.

Hair Removal

Unwanted hair in the body can be effectively removed by laser technology. Hair follicles can be destroyed by multiple treatments in areas including the neck, arms, arm pit, legs, back, bikini area safely.

Leg Veins

Sclerotherapy is a process of administrating an injection into the vein to eradicate it. This the most effective way of removing leg veins though newer technologies like long pulsed Nd-Yag laser is a good way to treat leg veins by avoiding the needles.

Birth Marks

laser surgery can remove birthmarks with out cutting or grafting. V-Beam laser can treat portwine stains, hemangiomas and other vascular birthmarks. Many pigmented birthmarks can also be treated with pigment lasers like, Alexandrite and ND-YAG lasers.

Wrinkles

Fine facial lines and wrinkles, other skin imperfections and pigmentations can be easily removed by resurfacing the skin only in one sitting with the most effective and newest Fraxel Laser technology. By the laser peel or CO2 laser resurfacing removes the sun damaged skin to reveal healthier and young looking skin. In addition the laser treatment shrinks the collagen in the skin and bestows a tightening and lifting effect.

Acne and Surgical Scars

Acne is the most common skin problem. Resurfacing lasers like CO2 or erbium can improve acne scars. Fraxel laser can improve appearance of acne and surgical scars anywhere in the body by 50%.

Photodamage of the Neck and Chest

Various laser techniques are effective enough to remove the poikiloderma or the photodamage of the neck and the chest.

Melasma

It is a facial pigmentation specially found in women which is related to use of birth control measures, pregnancy and sun. Fraxel Laser technology treats melasma effectively.

Tattoo Removal

Tattoos can be cleared by laser treatments. The Q switched Alexandrite or Nd-Yag are used to dissolve the pigment particles.

Stretch Marks

Rapid growth or sudden weight gain, pregnancy or puberty usually result in stretch or striae marks. The pulse dye laser or V-Beam laser is an effective treatment when the stretch marks are red and fresh.

Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy is the application of extreme cold in the affected area of the skin to destroy the germs. This therapy is also applied for skin cancer cases.

Chemical peels

Chemical Peel is a procedure to correct facial blemishes, wrinkles and skin pigmentation. A chemical solution is applied to improve the texture of the skin by peeling off the damaged outer layer

Mohs micrographic surgery

It is a surgery that involves in removal of skin cancers. The skin is removed in layers and examined under microscopes of any existing malignant cells. Any residual tumor can be easily traced and removed through this process. It is a surgery that takes some minutes while the examination lengthens to 20 minutes one hour.

yes... sounds impossible. But it's true! A new type of air-fueled battery being studied could provide up to 10 times the energy storage of designs currently available, and someday be used to power electric cars, mobile phones, and laptops, say researchers.

The research work, funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), is being led by researchers at the University of St Andrews with partners at Strathclyde and Newcastle.

The new design has the potential to improve the performance of portable electronic products and give a major boost to the renewable energy industry. The batteries will enable a constant electrical output from sources such as wind or solar, which stop generating when the weather changes or night falls.

Improved capacity is thanks to the addition of a component that uses oxygen drawn from the air during discharge, replacing one chemical constituent used in rechargeable batteries today. Not having to carry the chemicals around in the battery offers more energy for the same size battery. Reducing the size and weight of batteries with the necessary charge capacity has been a long-running battle for developers of electric cars.

The STAIR (St Andrews Air) cell should be cheaper than today’s rechargeables too. The new component is made of porous carbon, which is far less expensive than the lithium cobalt oxide it replaces.

This four-year research project, which reaches its halfway mark in July, builds on the discovery at the university that the carbon component’s interaction with air can be repeated, creating a cycle of charge and discharge. Subsequent work has more than tripled the capacity to store charge in the STAIR cell.

Principal investigator on the project, Professor Peter Bruce of the Chemistry Department at the University of St Andrews, says: “Our target is to get a five to ten fold increase in storage capacity, which is beyond the horizon of current lithium batteries. Our results so far are very encouraging and have far exceeded our expectations.”

“The key is to use oxygen in the air as a re-agent, rather than carry the necessary chemicals around inside the battery,” says Bruce.

The oxygen, which will be drawn in through a surface of the battery exposed to air, reacts within the pores of the carbon to discharge the battery. “Not only is this part of the process free, the carbon component is much cheaper than current technology,” says Bruce. He estimates that it will be at least five years before the STAIR cell is commercially available.

The project is focused on understanding more about how the chemical reaction of the battery works and investigating how to improve it. The research team is also working towards making a STAIR cell prototype suited, in the first instance, for small applications, such as mobile phones or MP3 players.

The four-year research project “An O2 Electrode for a Rechargeable Lithium Battery” began on 1 July 2007 and is scheduled to end on 30 June 2011. It has received EPSRC funding of £1,579,137.

Phobia is an irrational, intense, persistent fear of certain situations, activities, things, or people. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. When the fear is beyond one's control, or if the fear is interfering with daily life, then a diagnosis under one of the anxiety disorders can be made.
Phobias (in the clinical meaning of the term) are the most common form of anxiety disorders. An American study by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) found that between 8.7% and 18.1% of Americans suffer from phobias. Broken down by age and gender, the study found that phobias were the most common mental illness among women in all age groups and the second most common illness among men older than 25.


Causes

It is generally accepted that phobias arise from a combination of external events and internal predispositions. In a famous experiment, Martin Seligman used classical conditioning to establish phobias of snakes and flowers. The results of the experiment showed that it took far fewer shocks to create an adverse response to a picture of a snake than to a picture of a flower, leading to the conclusion that certain objects may have a genetic predisposition to being associated with fear. Many specific phobias can be traced back to a specific triggering event, usually a traumatic experience at an early age. Social phobias and agoraphobia have more complex causes that are not entirely known at this time. It is believed that heredity, genetics, and brain chemistry combined with life-experiences to play a major role in the development of anxiety disorders, phobias and panic attacks.

Treatments

Some therapists use virtual reality or imagery exercise to desensitize patients to the feared entity. These are parts of systematic desensitization therapy.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be beneficial. Cognitive behavioral therapy lets the patient understand the cycle of negative thought patterns, and ways to change these thought patterns. CBT may be conducted in a group setting. Gradual desensitisation treatment and CBT are often successful, provided the patient is willing to endure some discomfort and to make a continuous effort over a long period of time.
Hypnotherapy coupled with Neuro-linguistic programming can also be used to help remove the associations that trigger a phobic reaction. Neither methods are scientifically proven to be effective.
Anti-anxiety or anti-depression medications can be of assistance in many cases. Benzodiazepines could be prescribed for short-term use.
Emotional Freedom Technique, a psychotherapeutic alternative medicine tool, also considered to be pseudoscience by the mainstream medicine, is allegedly useful.
These treatment options are not mutually exclusive. Often a therapist will suggest multiple treatments.
