Finally being lithe and lissom

Well-proportioned curves, firm tissue and a sexy butt – these desires are shared by many women. Unfortunately, it is not as easy to make this dream come true.

Do women really need to starve themselves to achieve their ideal body? Our convincing answer is… Yes and no! In any case, there is no way to get around it:

  • Avoid sugar and high glycemic index foods.
  • Targeted muscle training supports the fight against superfluous pounds.

But what happens if all the effort does not produce the desired result? Frustration and reluctance are growing – the risk of failure becomes high, old eating and lifestyle habits are picked up again, the notorious yo-yo effect becomes apparent.

We can help you escape from this vicious cycle!

In almost all cases of overweight, there is a hormonal imbalance which should be diagnosed before weight loss and treated with bioidentical hormones. Once the hormonal balance is restored, weight loss with a well-conceived nutrition behavior change and workout program is successful in most cases. In this way, ideal weight may not only be achieved, but it is nearly always possible to keep it in the long run.

Microcannular liposuction is sometimes able to work true miracles as solution to weight problems. Particularly stubborn problem areas like saddlebags defy even the best weight loss therapy. Experience has shown that targeted liposuction provides a feeling of success and gets body and soul in the right mood for “fat burning”. Contrary to popular belief, liposuction should ideally be performed before the physician-supported weight loss program.

Assuming you want to achieve sustainable weight loss, DDr. Heinrich will be happy to support you on your way to ideal weight and perfect body!

In case you still want to take your weight loss into your own hands, effective products are available to you at DDr. Heinrich Shop® to facilitate weight loss. Weight Loss Phaseolin prevents that carbohydrates lead to the development of fat pads. Since Phaseoline is extracted from white kidney beans, it is also suitable for vegetarians.

Kristin Cavallari rejects Botox

Even young women, just like Reality TV star Kristin Cavallari, are already dealing with options in order to stay young and beautiful for as long as possible. However, unlike many of her actress colleagues of the same age, the 24-year-old Kristin who became globally known through her roles in the MTV Reality Shows Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and her spin-off The Hills, defies the Hollywood trend to “start” cosmetic surgeries at young ages.

In an interview with xojane.com, the beautiful blond revealed that she openly rejects the idea of using Botox: “Never say never, but I don’t think I’ll ever get Botox because we don’t know the long-term side effects, and I just don’t think that can be good for you.” Well, thanks to her job, Kristin had extensive opportunities to study the unwanted side effects of Botox and plastic surgery of older colleagues.

In the meantime, we are very well aware of both desirable and undesirable effects of botulinum neurotoxin. Botox is excellently suitable for smoothing facial wrinkles after facial surgeries since it temporarily paralyzes facial muscles. In cosmetic application, this effect is desirable on the one hand – Botox has meanwhile become the classic among the treatment of wrinkles: Individual parts of the facial muscles become paralyzed through targeted injection. This promotes a fast smoothing of mimic wrinkles.

On the other hand, the wrinkle-smoothing effect has also its disadvantages: Botox causes a regression of sweat glands and sebaceous glands of the skin (for this reason, Botox is also used as an excessive sweating treatment). As a result, the skin soon becomes drier, thinner, and quickly looks old and sallow. A limited ability to make mimic expressions is resulting in an unnatural, doll-like facial expression.

Permanent wrinkles emerging due to the fact that the quality of skin deteriorates with increasing age. Botox is only able to reduce the concrete reason – the mimic expression. However, in order to improve skin quality, regeneration is required: Our hormones, stem cells, as well as specific tissue hormones (growth factors) are the key to sustainable, natural skin rejuvenation completely without Botox, artificial fillers, and facelifts performed with scalpel.

The performance of our endocrine glands weakens with increasing age. The hormone levels decrease and all organs – also the skin – are worse supplied with the actual required hormones. Therefore, the organs age faster than necessary. By supplying bioidentical hormones (DHEA, growth hormone, testosterone, thyroxin, pregnenolone, and many others) within the context of a Hormonal Regeneration®, these age-related hormone deficiencies are compensated. Already after a short while, the face looks fuller and appears younger, the skin regains its youthful freshness and firmness and wrinkles disappear. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapies (BHRT) usually last 3 or 6 months.

The rejuvenating and regenerative effect of stem cells leads to noticeable improvement of the treated skin areas. During skin rejuvenation with stem cells, stem cells are isolated from a small amount of fat that is gently extracted using microcannulas. The stem cells are then injected with fine needles into the skin where they unfold their rejuvenating effects. Nowadays, skin tissue hormones (growth factors) can be bio-synthetically produced and used for targeted skin regeneration.

And what’s the secret behind Kristin’s slim body? In order to stay young and fit, Kristin focuses on low-calorie nutrition and physical activity instead of plastic surgery. Hence, she passionately enjoys sports – allegedly four times a week. Her well-trained body she may have also achieved through her tough dance training in order to participate on the show Dancing with the Stars – a little compensation for the fact that she had already been sent home from the show after the third week…

And how does her love life look like? After several temporary relationships, she may now have found her happiness with football player Jay Cutler. Let’s hope that he is not only going to support Kristin in her decision in terms of natural beauty, but also to make her permanently happy this time!

Stem Cell Breast Augmentation a Safe Alternative to Silicone

Stem cell-enriched autologous fat enables sustainable breast augmentation with autologous tissue

Vienna (2012-01-10) — It was in all the media: For years a French company has been selling defective silicone implants that often rupture and may cause cancer. More than 100,000 women worldwide must now choose between having their implants removed as a precaution or carrying a “time bomb” in their bodies. Stem cell breast augmentation offers an innovative, safe alternative to silicone implants.

“Autologous fat tissue is better tolerated than silicone and is ideal for scarless, completely natural breast augmentation or breast reconstruction after removal of silicone implants or tumors,” says DDr. Karl-Georg Heinrich, Vienna-based esthetic and regenerative stem cell therapy expert. His Clinic DDr. Heinrich® has been granting the wishes of patients worldwide for a fuller décolletage without silicone and scars since 2007.

Like all other approved silicone implants, the defective French implants were also CE certified. The defects of these implants remained hidden. But even the best silicone implants represent only a temporary breast augmentation solution. Hence cosmetic surgeons who use silicone implants recommend implant replacements every ten years for all patients.

With stem cell breast augmentation, however, sustainable breast augmentation is generally achievable with just one intervention under local anesthesia. The autologous fat used for breast augmentation is gently liposuctioned with patented microcannulas, enriched with autologous stem cells, and then injected in the breast with fine injection needles.

Along with breast augmentation and stem cell facelifts, stem cell-enriched autologous fat is used in the Clinic DDr. Heinrich® for body shaping (buttocks, hips, upper thighs, calves) as well as dent correction and skin rejuvenation.

Stem cell transplantation is not always the same as stem cell enrichment

Clinic DDr. Heinrich® was the first place in Europe to offer aesthetic stem cell transplantations like breast augmentation without silicone and the facelift without scalpel in 2006. In 2010 some other doctors started to advertise stem cell treatments – most of them doctors who publicly criticized the application of autologous stem cells in the past. I appreciate that former critics decided to change their minds and to offer treatments which make silicone implants and scalpel superfluous. The patients’ well-being is always of utmost importance in aesthetic medicine!

Kindly be aware that stem cell transplantation is not always the same as stem cell enrichment: Every injection of autologous fat is basically a stem cell transplant because fatty tissue contains a large number of stem cells. However, only the complex process of stem cell enrichment which significantly increases the stem cell content in the implant enables for the excellent stable results stem cell breast augmentation and the stem cell facelift are known for all over the world.

Actual stem cell enrichment only requires a single application and is thus more expensive than other less-advanced techniques. For example, breast augmentation with fat harvested using automatic “waterjet liposuction” and without stem cell enrichment requires multiple applications in order to obtain the desired augmentation of the breast…

Pure Nature: Top model Helena Christensen without makeup

The famous fashion designer Gianni Versace once said about Helena Christensen having the most beautiful body in the world. But those days are long gone when photographs for a lingerie catalogue were taken of this beauty with Peruvian and Danish roots while she became world-famous as Victoria’s Angel: Just a few days ago, the former Miss Denmark celebrated her 43rd birthday – and she is already “on the scrap heap”, at least according to the standards of the modeling industry.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Helena has given up her life as a top model in the meantime and changed her role to be on the other side of the camera. She is successfully acting as a photographer for ELLE, Marie Claire and her self-founded fashion magazine Nylon. As if that were not enough, she also shows her photographs at exhibitions for a good cause and additionally manages her fashion company Christensen & Sigersen.

Already 20 years ago, the stunning Helenawas rolling around naked on a sandy beach with Chris Isaak in the video Wicked Game and thus, helped the clip to gain reputation as the Sexiest Video of All-Time. Recently, Helena Christensen lived up to her success in the past and she stood in front of the camera once again – but being dressed this time: In the music video of the legendary smash hit of the ‘80s Girl Panic! by the British pop icons Duran Duran, she performed together with her ex-top modeling colleagues Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, and Eva Herzigova.

But unlike all of her former colleagues, she not only shows herself naturally with one or the other wrinkle on her face in the brand new video, but also on photographs in Splash News. In contrast to the other stars of her age who are keen to exaggerate the use of makeup, botox, hyaluronic acid, and scalpel facelifts, Helena is self-confident and unconcerned thanks to her natural look and thereby radiates a most special charm of a woman who is convinced of her natural beauty.

In order to keep natural beauty, even at mature age, it is necessary that our endocrine glands produce adequate amounts of hormones and keep our hormone levels in balance. In Helena Christensen’s case, everything may still be functioning properly at this point of time, however, age-related changes to her endocrine system in a few years will also result in a reduced hormone production, so that the effects of chronic deficiency of hormones will become more obvious. The administration of bioidentical hormones within the context of a Hormonal Regeneration® (Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, BHRT) will make the skin quickly brighter and firmer.

Besides hormones, stem cells and growth factors have a decisive influence on the quality of our skin. Just like bioidentical hormones, they are also not exogenous. Thanks to the most advanced medical technology, the required stem cells, necessary for stem cell facelifts and skin rejuvenation on other body regions, are obtained from a small amount of autologous fat. Injected stem cells achieve a remarkable rejuvenation and regeneration of the skin and even make wrinkles disappear. A growth factor treatment is able to imitate the success of a stem cell treatment to a certain extent.

People like Helena Christensen show us that nowadays true beauty is not a matter of age. The gentle methods of New Cosmetic Surgery are available for all adults to support rejuvenation and improve well-being – because, nothing is more important in achieving a positive attitude than being happy with yourself?

How come that industrial silicone was used in breast implants?

It made headlines across all media outlets: The silicone breast implants sold by a French company were likely to burst, possibly causing cancer in some cases. Haven’t they been examined? Oh yes, they were even CE certified. But the implant maker PIP, that has been closed in the meantime, submitted high quality implants for certification and subsequently sold implants filled with cheaper industrial silicone to the surgeons who inserted the implants. Meanwhile, it has become known that as early as 2000, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) already raised concerns about implants made by the French company.

However, in France and Brazil, a total of approximately 50,000 of these cheap implants still have been inserted up until a few years ago. Consequently – as reported by ORF and BusinessWeek – the defective implants have been particularly widely spread in those countries where cosmetic surgery may only be monopolistically performed by physicians of a single medical specialty.

Figures published in the New York Times and by the AGES (Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety) indicate that in the U.S. and Austria, where highly trained cosmetic surgeons of all medical fields are entitled to perform for the benefit of patients, comparatively few physicians have been cheated by cheap implants. Does the interdisciplinary competition possibly promote quality awareness among all cosmetic surgeons? Does the interdisciplinary nature of cosmetic surgery therefore contribute to patient safety?

In line with patient safety, it should not be overlooked that medical-grade silicone is fundamentally not much different to industrial-grade silicone. But, it is still a problematic foreign body after all. Every now and then, the subject of carcinogenesis or the creation of cancer cells is back on the table. In the optimal case without any complications, silicone implants have to be replaced every 5 to 10 years by undergoing additional surgeries.

The use of autologous tissue is definitely more compatible and enables scar-free and absolutely natural breast augmentation. Furthermore, only a one-time surgical procedure under local anesthesia is generally sufficient.

Don’t harm yourself, because there are already better ways! Learn more about breast augmentation with stem cell-enriched autologous fat…

Effective Anti-Aging with bioidentical hormones (BHRT)

Nearly all anti-aging experts agree that the key to vitality, performance, and juvenility into old age is that all endocrine glands in the human body must release the correct amount of hormones. But, while we are still discussing in Austria and Germany whether hormone replacement is justifiable at a certain age, the debate at leading scientific anti-aging conferences in the U.S. and Asia is no longer about “if”, but only about “when to start” and “at which dosage”.

However, the important issue of hormone therapies is that bioidentical hormones are administrated. Unfortunately, bioidentical hormones are not commonly used in menopausal therapy, but rather artificial hormone-like medication, whose negative side effects have meanwhile been proven in large-scale studies. Therefore, if one is talking about an “increased risk of breast cancer”, it has to be emphasized that there is an increased risk once artificial “pseudo estrogens” are administered in a high-dose monotherapy, which is a non-physiological practice.

An effective anti-aging treatment always begins with a comprehensive analysis of all relevant hormones, determination of hormone deficiencies and a subsequent therapy with bioidentical hormones that are as natural as possible. Naturally, human growth hormone (HGH) can also be administered, if there is a deficiency. Contrary to the frequently spread, scientifically overhauled opinion that HGH obviously can promote cancer, it is exactly the opposite, due to the fact that it even protects against cancer if used properly.

In every hormone therapy, the balance between the different hormones must be taken into particular consideration. If hormones are in balance with one another, everything seems to be easier, even losing weight. Our patients feel and notice impressive rejuvenation by up to 15 years once they are treated with bioidentical hormones. And the good news is – through these treatments, many of the alternative anti-aging measures, which mostly involve self-mortification, can be totally avoided!

Together with the cutting edge area of anti-aging and cosmetic medicine, the autologous stem cells that are obtained from autologous fat by means of special procedures using microcannular liposuction, bioidentical hormones are an important pillar of New Cosmetic Surgery which enables impressive aesthetic treatments: Rejuvenation as well as tightening of face and eyelids make facelifts and eyelid surgeries unnecessary even now, and also body contouring and breast augmentations with stem cell-enriched autologous fat without silicone!

Axl Rose: A singer through the ages

When the world-famous superstar Axl Rose (49) went up on stage at the festival Rock in Rio in October, his fans were hardly able to recognize him at first sight. But, in contrast to singer Barry Manilow, excessive plastic surgery for once, was not to blame this time. In fact, way of life, exhausting occupation, and premature aging have left their traces behind on the frontman of the legendary U.S. band Guns N’ Roses.

There’s only little what is left of the Axl Rose who was whizzing across the stage in the late 80’s with naked upper body, flowing mane, and upper arm tattoos, conquering the hearts of his fans with hits like “November Rain” and who even had a brief relationship with top model Stephanie Seymour. Meanwhile, it is said that Axl Rose (real name William Bailey) has put on lots of weight and lost a lot of his sex appeal.

By now we are aware that the performance of our endocrine glands weakens with increasing age. This results in hormone deficiencies and hormonal imbalances which can have a negative impact on our well-being and attractiveness. Testosterone deficiency, lack of growth hormone, DHEA, and many other hormones are literally written on the face of many older people: Sunken cheeks, pale skin as well as obesity, flabby body, and a loss of body odor attractiveness frequently result from hormonal imbalances.

On the other hand, film legends like Sean Connery, the “Sexiest Man Alive”, show that men even at a mature age may still radiate a magical attraction to the fair sex. The age-related drop in performance of the endocrine glands is apparently quite individual and depends on a lot of factors, especially on inheritance, way of life, stress, and other possible diseases.

However, even on a sex symbol like Sean Connery, the age-related drop in performance of the endocrine glands with increasing age is clearly visible on his face and his body. Although he looks younger than his age due to his inherited powerful endocrine glands, he would also benefit from a Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT): His endocrine glands which are working to the limit would be relieved, he would even look significantly younger and firmer than he already looks now for being more than 80 years of age and he would also benefit of being in substantially better shape.

In turn, Axl Rose would be able to regain his ideal weight more easily and recapture his firm upper body, if he would have a treatment done to rebalance his age-related hormone deficiencies.

A decisive factor is that bioidentical hormones are exclusively administrated within the scope of Hormonal Regeneration® which simulate human hormones in its structure.

Treatment with bioidentical hormones usually lasts 3 or 6 months. Hormonal Regeneration® also helps the body to recover in times of stress. Even among younger people, a bioidentical hormone replacement therapy could possibly work true miracles in phases of “burnout”, stress at work and at home.

Since overweight, as in Axl Rose’s case, is often linked to hormone deficiencies or imbalances, a treatment with bioidentical hormones besides other treatment measures – diet sheet, training program, and liposuction – can help to reach and keep an ideal weight.

Even if Axl Rose would not blossom out to be the next “Sexiest Man Alive” by undergoing a bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, he could still benefit from it for his fans and for himself by being able to regain his firm body and the radiance of his younger days. What do you think?

The secret behind AnnaLynne McCord’s mysterious breast augmentation

Just recently, everyone talked about the breast implants of starlet Tori Spelling, well-known from the U.S. TV series Beverly Hills, 90210. History now seems to be repeating itself: This time, there is speculation about the “realness” of an actress’ breasts, who is performing in the TV series 90210, the spin-off of Beverly Hills, 20210: AnnaLynne McCord, who impersonates the leading role of Naomi Clark in the series, allegedly had got her breasts augmented just a short while ago.

The rumors about her alleged breast augmentation started after AnnaLynne was photographed in a revealing red gown. Compared to previous pictures, these images not only show her wearing a new outfit, but appeared to show a change in the star’s cleavage as well as an increase in the size of her breasts. But, there are different explanations that are circulating around regarding the secret of her miraculously visible larger bust.

In order to solve the mystery of AnnaLynne’s breasts once and for all, the Star magazine contacted a plastic surgeon to take a look on these photographs and to provide his professional point of view. In the interview he explains: “I can perceive edges of the implant, and the space between the breasts looks like a breast augmentation to me.” However, the result looks natural and fits well to the rest of AnnaLynn’s body: “Her doctor didn’t go overboard.”

Naturally, the starlet’s environment has a completely different opinion: “She did not undergo a breast augmentation surgery.” Sometimes AnnaLynne just want to emphasize her breasts through her clothes. However, one possible explanation in the whole discussion about AnnaLynn’s enlarged breasts has been overlooked so far: Breast augmentation with stem cell-enriched autologous fat. This procedure enables a completely natural result without any implanted foreign bodies and visible scars.

In the stem cell breast augmentation procedure, initially, the autologous fat is gently extracted from the patient’s body by using fine microcannulas. Subsequently, this fat is enriched with autologous stem cells in a laboratory process. Finally, the stem cell-enriched autologous fat will be injected into the breast. For security reasons, liposuction as well as breast injections are performed under local anesthesia. The patient can go home directly after the procedure.

Well, whatever the reason may be for the mystery of AnnaLynne’s bigger breasts: In any case, there should be no visible edges or an unusually large space between the breasts in order to not make it obvious that a helping hand has been given to Mother Nature, as the plastic surgeon had explained in the interview. Even in motion, a perfectly augmented breast will always look totally “real”!

Let’s wish that AnnaLynne has decided against breast augmentation with silicone implants and has enlarged her breasts naturally. Otherwise, it well could be that we may have to read reports again in a few years – as we had recently heard from Tori Spelling – that she regrets her “silicone youthful misdeed”.
