KeraStraight 
Keratin Hair Treatments: What to Expect 

Longing for smoother, straighter hair? Keratin hair-straightening treatments are a popular option at salons.

If you're thinking about trying it, you should know this:
What Is Keratin? It's a protein that's naturally in your hair.
How It Works: A stylist applies a keratin hair-straightening product to your hair and then uses the heat of a flat iron to seal it in. The process takes about 90 minutes or longer, depending on your hair's length. Salon keratin products include Keratin Complex Smoothing Therapy by Coppola, Global Keratin Complex, the La-Brasiliana treatment, Brazilian Keratin Treatment, the Brazilian Blowout, and Brazilian Hair Straightening.


Let's welcome the founder of KeraStraight from London!

& rinse well with water & we're done! 
Founder show us a trick on how to prove my hair back to healthy hair 
he take out some of my hair & roll it on his finger and cover it with another hand. 

after 1min he remove his hand & tada!!!! 
He just used his finger to create this curl!!! How amazing !!!! 

Before and after the treatment
Before- My was was super super tangled and dry after shampoo 
After 1 treatment - I felt my hair is heavier and moisture because of the keratin , so smooth and silky! 

Keratin treatments won't make your hair break, but the flat-ironing might. "The hair breakage has nothing to do with the treatments and everything to do with the flat irons that are used to dry and seal the hair afterward," says New York dermatologist Neil Sadick, MD. "Some stylists may use a flat iron that is way too hot and scorches hair, making it break off."

"Keratin is more of a restorative treatment," Borday says. "Even if you have a good hair type, it still strengthens the hair shaft and makes your hair more resilient."


Time-Saving Tresses: If you usually style your hair straight, a keratin hair-straightening treatment could shorten your blow-dry time by 40% to 60%, says hair stylist Henri Borday of New York's Mizu salon and corporate educator for Global Keratin.
Farewell, Frizz: You can forget about frizzy hair after treatment. "You could walk out in moist or light rain and your hair won’t change," Borday says.
Wait Before You Wash: You shouldn't wash your hair for three or four days after getting the treatment. That's because the solution takes time to work, he says.
Upkeep: After you get a keratin hair treatment, and after the don't-wash waiting period, you should use sodium-sulfate-free shampoo to help maintain the treatment.
How Long It Lasts: Expect the results to last two to 2 1/2 months.


Last but not least !!! 
This treatment will last up to 30days. 
yes! 30days!  
I've never heard any hair treatment can promise & guarantee it can last up to 30days! 

sound amazing?

picture took from my Instagram 
with friendly Dr Elaine 

after awhile they arrange me to sit inside a comfy room to fill in my forms.

As usual, every aesthetic clinic need your informations before proceed to further procedure . 

There are few types of method to make our face shape perfect , 
-Botox (easiest , last up to 4 months) 
-Thread lift ( instantly lift up the place that you concerned, last up to 2 years ) 

after consult we decided to go for botox . 
This is the Botox that Primer Clinic using. 

BOTOX Injection for Facial Sculpting / Contouring

WHY CHOOSE FACIAL SCULPTING/CONTOURING?

Facial sculpting or contouring is a technique that gives the patient an oval- or V-shape face that is slimmer in profile. A common and popular facial slimming treatment amongst Asian, the slimming of the facial features gives the individual a more youthful look, while the skin will appear rejuvenated and healthier.

This treatment is ideal for:

A square-shaped jawline
A jawline that is more masculine in nature
Chubby cheeks
Cheeks to appear “slimmer”
Those who want to reduce involuntary teeth grinding (bruxism)


while waiting Dr Elaine prepare the botox I went to get some drinks , 
the machine have my favourite drink MILO !  :D 

HOW IT WORKS?

Botulinum Toxin (Botox) acts as a relaxant for jaw muscles, inducing relaxation and also thins the chewing muscles (masseter) in the lateral jaw. The injected Botox will block the nerve impulses of the muscles in the selected area, diminishing the fine lines and wrinkles while ensuring your cheekbones look full and face is lifted. It also helps to refresh your overall appearance, giving you a more youthful face that shaves years off your actual age.

Jaw line Botox is injected into the Masseter muscle, which is used to close the mouth and chew. The technique is probably most popular in the Asian community. A bulky masseter muscle makes the lower face look full and heavy. Just a small amount of Botox in this muscle on both sides will cause loss of mass in this muscle and help improve the shape of the lower face. The dose used should not be so great that it interferes with the actual function of the muscle.

a lot people might ask , does it hurt? 
No. doesn't hurt at all , it just like normal injection . 


The treatment is also suitable for individuals who are afraid of or do not want to opt for surgical methods. It consists of a few simple injections to the selected areas, with numbing cream applied prior to treatment in order to reduce any discomfort or pain. The smallest and finest needles are used to inject Botox, minimising any redness, bruising or bleeding on the facial skin – these are the only “side effects” of the treatment, as actual side effects are extremely uncommon.

Improvements will start to show after 3-5 days, and your skin will appear smoother as the new oval- or V-shape begins to form. As the treatment only affects injected facial muscles, other muscles continue functioning as normal and your facial expressions will be unaffected.


The result after 2 weeks (14days) 

Before & after 1

Before & after 2 


Now I can enjoy selfie's with lots of different angles ! 


Woohoo now I no need photoshop my face shape anymore :P 

MAINTENANCE

The effects of Botox on your face can last up to 3-4 months after the initial treatment, but more sessions are required in order to maintain your youthful appearance. Once a few treatments have been completed, future sessions may only be needed once in 6 months as the effects will begin to last longer. Your doctor will advise you on initial and subsequent treatments if needed, as well as schedule an appointment 2 weeks after the initial treatment to gauge the progress made.

My thoughts after 2 weeks
During this 2 weeks I can see my face is getting slimmer & slimmer in very natural way,
none of my family member noticed it , they just asked me ' are you on diet? ' .
I'm very satisfied with the results , only hope the botox can last longer . Hahaha.
I don't feel anything different of uncomfortable during this 2 weeks,
Highly recommend to those who want a nice jawline without surgery :D

Hope you like my review !

Love,
ValerieYan
