According to the Harley Medical Group, the technique has originated from reconstructive surgery and was tested in Britain after a 10-year study on global developments in fat grafting. They said that the results experienced by patients in the US and UK, who had the procedure four or five years ago, have shown that the effects are lasting.

Harley Medical Group chairman Mel Braham said: "This really is the most exciting breakthrough in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery that I have seen over the last two decades."

Should couples not sleep together?

Sounds a bit weird but yes this is what new research has suggested. According to Dr Neil Stanley, decent night's sleep is more important than cosying up with your partner. Research evidence suggests that sharing a bed is bad for sleep. One study found that if one partner moved in his or her sleep there was a 50% chance of it disturbing the other.

"If you want to live a happy and healthy life, diet and exercise are important but so is sleep," said Dr Stanley, speaking at the University of Surrey in Guildford.

Dr Stanley, who set up one of Britain's leading sleep laboratories at the University of Surrey, said poor sleep was linked to depression, heart disease, strokes, lung disorders, traffic and industrial accidents, and divorce. Yet sleep was largely ignored as an important aspect of health.He said the modern tradition of sleeping together began with the industrial revolution, when people moving to overcrowded towns and cities found themselves short of living space however before the Victorian era it was not uncommon for married couples to sleep apart.

Viagra UK


Viagra has helped thousands of men in the UK get back in the bedroom. The erectile-dysfunction remedy was introduced 10 years ago and became one of the best-selling drugs in history. According to Pfizer pharmaceutical's Web site about Viagra, 25 million men have taken it.


A report published by the Harvard School of Medicine titled "Sexuality in Midlife and Beyond" suggests that while the drug may help resolve relationship pressure, it can cause other issues: "When intercourse is suddenly a possibility again, relationship issues can emerge or resurface, as can dramatic differences in libido. The bottom line is that couples should try to regard these drugs as an opportunity to renew their sexual relationship while realizing that ED drugs are neither a mandate to have intercourse nor a panacea for every problem in the bedroom."
The report helps readers understand how to deal with emotional issues concerning sex, including taking Viagra. While there are millions of success stories about Viagra use, the study notes, "The medication works only if the man is feeling sexual desire for his partner."

Viagra UK is available online at www.medical-specialists.co.uk who can supply the erectile dysfunction treatment throughout the UK & Europe.

Propecia is the more successful treatment out of the two and has many papers and happy customers that have used the product who have either stop hair loss in its tracks or regained lost hair.

Hair Cloning
But now a company in Manchester called Intercytex have been busy working on cloning, hair cloning that is. Already phase 1 & 2 of the hair cloning trials have been completed and are showing some promising results.
The ICX-TRC procedure
A small sample of hair follicles is taken from the patient during a simple 30 minute operation carried out under local anaesthetic at a hair or skin clinic. The clinic sends the biopsy to Intercytex’ GMP compliant manufacturing facility where the DP cells are dissociated from the rest of the follicle. These cells are cultured and expanded in proprietary media over three weeks and subsequently returned to the clinic in a sterile suspension.
sing a specialised delivery system, the DP cells are microinjected intradermally into the patient’s scalp. The treatment is performed under local anaesthetic and comprises a single procedure of superficial injections, each injection delivering a minute volume of media containing DP cells. These cells are able to stimulate the generation of new hairs when injected in close proximity to the epidermal cells which generate the hair. Following the procedure, new hair growth should become evident after approximately three months.

Boots Viagra

Boots’ bid to provide Viagra in-store has started to look like a ‘false hope’ as frustrated patients struggle with appointments, long queues and time consuming repeat supplies of Erectile Dysfunction medicine.
Buying Viagra from Boots does not mean in anyway that patients simply walk in and just buy it. Patients need to complete a questionnaire before having almost an hour long consultation with a pharmacist, who takes medical history, conducts a series of blood tests, including checking men's glucose, blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
After a disappointing experience of dealing with Boots, many Erectile Dysfunction patients are referring to online clinics for their Erectile Dysfunction medicine.

Over the counter slimming pill Alli - Does it really work?

The newly launched over the counter diet pill Alli (weight loss pill available without prescription) is becoming extremely popular among obese and over-weight people. Alli by GSK was recently launched as the first over-the-counter weight loss pill to be available in pharmacies across the UK and Europe.

Alli has previously been available on prescription for some time but the Government has decided it should be more accessible to the public. According to the claims made by GSK, the manufacturers of Alli, Alli helps dieters lose 50 per cent more weight than through willpower alone, by preventing the body absorbing fat. GSK also stresses that it is not a 'magic' pill and is designed to enhance, rather than replace, the effects of diet and exercise.

The drug, which actually is a half-strength version of the prescription-only diet pill Xenical, is only available to those with a body mass index of 28 and over after a consultation with the pharmacist has taken place. If you are looking at buying Alli over the counter, be ready to be weighed and measured at your pharmacy if do not know your BMI (Body Mass Index). Alli is not available to under 18s. A monthly course of Alli costs around £50.

So is Alli really worth trying? Are there anyother weight loss pills better than Alli - Read complete story here:
