Well, our Face is vertically divided in three parts.
1.     From Hair Line to Glabella (point between two eyes).
2.     From glabella to sub nasale (where tip of the nose gets over).
3.     From sub nasale to chin.

            Well in most of the cases middle portion of face is bigger. (Ideally they all should be of same size) for better out looks. Which is also called as Vertical Maxillary Excess. Well whenever we have vertical Maxillary Excess Gummy smile is common problem. As natural feed back mechanism one try to hide gummy smile and end up developing hyperactive mentalis or chin muscle. Which is usually habitual problem for patients




 One of the most promising procedure for such problem is Orthognathic Surgery which is also named as Jaw Correction surgery. As it is Major Surgery most of the patients get scared or not willing for surgery.
   One more way to Inject Botulinum Toxin Type –A  in Caninus muscle. Which gives free fall of lip over teeth & gums also injecting Botox into Chin Muscles will stops its hyperactivity . Due to habitual habit of closing lips chin muscles gets overdeveloped & very prominent. With the help of Botox it looks normal. Lip length & shape can be well developed with hyaluronic Acid based Dermal Filler. In following case who is just 24-25 years Indian , Mumbai based Boy having Gummy smile on thorough evaluation by Dr. Vaibhav Shah it is been diagnosed as case of Vertical Maxillary Excess. As patient was keen for Non Surgical Treatment of Gummy Smile Dr. Shah performed Botox for Lips & Chin muscle (Mentalis Muscle). Lip Re-Shaping & Rejuvenation is done with Hyaluronic Acid Based  Dermal Filler.


Right Side is Before Treatment & left side is after Treatment.

On left side picture small teeth , Hyperactive Mentalis is very much visible. Lips are incompetent i.e not meeting each other. In Right side picture one can see competence of lip , No hyperactive Mentalis or Chin Muscles. Boy Looks much more Younger  & got his Beautiful smile back.

How Hair Transplant Surgery has become Cost- effective?
Well, five years back Hair Transplant Surgery was almost five times of the cost then what it is right now.
The factor which is responsible for reduces the charges of hair transplant surgery.
-         Well, Fact & unfortunate part is Hair transplant did not remain very exclusive surgical procedure.
As there was a great need of Looks enhancement lots of Doctors have started training themselves in Hair Transplant Surgery. It was considered to be the Surgeon’s Work. But now all physician also started performing the procedure.

-         It is become branch which is driven by Technician or just nursing staff. As no great knowledge of Anatomy needed in Hair Transplant Surgery , it is more of skill work  . Surgeon’s have become less interested & branch is definitely gone into the hands of technician & nursing staff. Which is also highly responsible for Low cost.
-         As Hair Transplant Surgery do not need any great set up , whole surgical procedure is done under Local Anesthesia without any anesthetist & Proper Operation Theatre cost is started reducing massively.
-         Strip method which is also called as FUT – Follicular Unit Transplant was comparatively fast procedure means in a 6 hours one can easily transplant up to 3000 grafts men power requirement was high around team of 8-10 Nursing staff was needed . In FUE – Follicular Unit Extraction method it is slow procedure in which around six hour for two consecutive days is needed for 3000 grafts. Because of better esthetic , scar less achievement FUE is very well picked up by patients. Which has further reduced manpower & cost?
-         Lots of Businessman started Investing their Money in Hair Transplant Surgery Centre. Where Surgeon is just paid employee. Extraordinary Marketing by such Brands is common for better returns. That has also helped to reduced the cost.
-         Almost all big chain of Hair Transplant Surgery Clinics hire MBA to improve their Business , Charges according to Grafts & Now Follicle is brainchild of such MBA & definitely not of any Doctor, Which has pretended greatly that Hair Transplant Surgery is Cheap & Best for any Hair Problem.
-         Survival of fittest – lots of Doctors & Investor have invested Great Money in Hair Transplant Surgery Centre & Marketing of such Surgery , to earn money out of it & survival of business low cost work is need of such Clinics.
-         Great Competition , Awareness, Media also made Hair Transplant Surgery Cheap & most affordable surgery. www.vaibhavshahblog.blogspot.comwww.vaibhavshahblog.blogspot.com

History of Hair Loss Medicine- Minoxidil.

History of Hair Loss Medicine- Minoxidil

When Upjohn received permission from the FDA to test the new drug as medicine for hypertension they approached Charles A. Chidsey MD, Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. who conducted two studies, the second study showing unexpected hair growth. Puzzled by this side-effect, Chidsey consulted Guinter Kahn and discussed the possibility of using minoxidil for treating hair loss.
Kahn along with his colleague Paul J. Grant MD obtained a certain amount of the drug and conducted their own research, apparently without notifying Upjohn or Chidsey. The two doctors had been experimenting with a 1% solution of minoxidil mixed with several alcohol-based liquids. They tried to patent the drug for hair loss prevention, but found that Upjohn had already done this. A decade-long trial between Kahn and Upjohn ended with Kahn's name included in a consolidated patent (U.S. #4,596,812 Charles A Chidsey, III and Guinter Kahn) in 1986 and royalties from the company to both Kahn and Grant.
Meantime the effect of minoxidil on hair loss prevention was so clear that in the 80's physicians were prescribing Loniten off-label to their balding patients.
In August 18, 1988 the FDA finally approved the drug for treating baldness in men under the trade name 'Rogaine' (FDA rejected Upjohn's first choice, Regain, as misleading). The agency concluded that although "the product will not work for everyone", 39 percent of the men studied had "moderate to dense hair growth on the crown of the head".
In 1991 Upjohn made the product available for women.
On February 12, 1996 FDA approved both the over-the-counter sale of the drug and the production of generic formulations of minoxidil. Upjohn replied to that by lowering prices to half the price of the prescription drug and by releasing a prescription 5% formula of Rogaine in 1997.
In 1998 a 5% formulation of minoxidil was approved for nonprescription sale by the FDA.
As of 2014 it was the only topical product that is FDA-approved for androgenic hair loss.
The drug is available over the counter in the United Kingdom.
