Makers of best-selling beauty products are removing preservatives that medical experts blame for a massive rise in allergic reactions. Skin experts say manufacturers should urgently remove the chemical – a preservative
called methylisothiazolinone (MI) – from products that are left on the skin. It can cause rashes, lumps, blisters,
itchy eyes and facial swelling
Dr Treacy is considered one of the most influential aesthetic
practitioners in the world, having forever altered the field of
aesthetic medicine. With anecdotes taken from his extraordinary memoir – and reveals why he finally decided to lift the mask.
A 53-year-old Irish female presented with an intractable trigeminal neuralgia pain in the region of her left maxillary nerve (V2) who did not respond to pharmacotherapy including pregabalin 300mgs bd and gabapentin 300mgs bd. She had been admitted to hospital for one month for intravenous oxycodone hydrochloride. She had also more than fifty nerve blocks in the previous years and had undergone stereotactic gamma knife radiosurgery which had work for five months but later resulted in uncontrollable dysesthesia pain in the region of her left maxillary nerve. She defined this as a continual unpleasant sensation of something 'crawling' under her skin in her left periorbital. There was a sensation of intense pain in her left external nasal area and that of electric shock, burning, and pins and needles and left mental area.

A 32-year-old male patient presented with a large wart on his second finger and numerous warts on his right foot. Warts are a common skin infection caused by HPV that can persist for many years. Diagnosis of warts is usually not difficult to make clinically or histologically. Treatment options for warts include cryotherapy, which the author uses to treat digital warts, CO2 laser for foot warts, salicylic acid, photodynamic therapy, lasers, and other topical treatments. While many treatments are available, evidence for their efficacy is sometimes limited.
Dr Patrick Treacy on devices for dealing with post-pregnancy baby weightDr. Patrick J. Treacy
Pregnancy leads to many changes in a woman’s
body, mainly through the interaction of steroid
hormones, lactogen and cortisol on the underlying
tissues and structures. The growing foetus itself
causes mechanical change also by stretching
skin, muscle and fascia and demanding an increased
calorific supply. The amount of extra weight gained
during pregnancy varies among women.
1) The document describes a case of a 47-year-old man who developed gustatory sweating (Frey's syndrome) after undergoing endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy surgery 16 years prior.
2) Frey's syndrome causes sweating, flushing, and warming of the face and neck in response to eating. It is treated using botulinum toxin injections, which were effective in resolving the patient's symptoms.
3) Botulinum toxin injections of 3 mouse units per square centimeter is an effective, minimally invasive treatment for Frey's syndrome that can provide relief of symptoms for over 12 months.

At present, there’s a paucity of literature regarding both the prevention and management of serious events, despite the fact that these complications are the very things that patients and physicians both continually fear. Many physicians, (including myself), feel that corporate prefer not to address these issues and they are driven underground. Over the years, many of my colleagues have referred me their more serious problems and I consequently have developed a certain experience in this area. This insight into complications of dermal filler use will serve to highlight both of these problems and try to help one manage these complications if they should ever happen to you.
Dr. Patrick Treacy is chairman of several medical organizations focused on cosmetic medicine and aesthetic training. He has pioneered techniques for facial reconstruction and has trained over 800 medical professionals worldwide. Dr. Treacy will be giving a presentation at the British College of Aesthetic Medicine Conference on the risks of soft tissue fillers and the importance of proper injection technique to avoid complications like vascular occlusion.

Dr. Patrick Treacy is a well-known face within the Aesthetic industry, both in the UK and Ireland, as well as the World. A loveable, Irish rogue with a charming, boyish smile and a cheeky demeanour, Patrick, (what better
name for an Irishman is there) is also a very accomplished and knowledgeable medical professional and humanitarian.
Dr Patrick Treacy on Diagnosis and Treatment of Malignant Melanoma Dr. Patrick J. Treacy
A 23-year-old Siberian female patient presented with a changing lesion on her abdomen. The patient stated the lesion was present for about two years and it started
off from within a freckle, which started to grow larger and somewhat darken in appearance. It had the clinical appearance of a melanoma and the dermoscopy three-point checklist (designed to allow non-experts not to miss detection of melanomas) was used to determine whether this had a high likelihood of malignancy. It included:
Asymmetry: asymmetry of colour and structure in one or
two perpendicular axes
Atypical network: pigment network with irregular holes
and thick lines
Blue-white structures: there was some evidence of blue-
white veil and regression structures
This document discusses a case of idiopathic scrotal calcinosis (ISC) in a 26-year-old male who presented with multiple asymptomatic scrotal nodules. Physical examination revealed multiple firm subcutaneous nodules of varying sizes within the scrotal wall. Histology showed calcifications within cystic spaces and a foreign body giant cell reaction, consistent with a diagnosis of scrotal calcinosis. ISC is a rare benign condition typically appearing in men aged 20-40 years as hard, yellowish nodules within the scrotal skin. Surgery is the treatment of choice for cosmetic reasons, as the nodules can affect quality of life.
This document discusses the reversal of dermal filler-induced facial artery occlusion. It notes that while adverse reactions to dermal fillers are usually mild and transient, significant vascular complications can occasionally occur. It theorizes that late-onset vascular occlusion may result from hyaluronic acid expanding and compressing underlying vessels. It then outlines a case of a patient who developed erythema and pain after HA injection and was treated with hyaluronidase, steroids, and oxygenating cream, with symptoms resolving within 5 days. The author proposes adding intravenous steroids to the standard reversal protocol and discusses prevention through anatomy knowledge and proper technique.

Professor James Watson (one of the DNA's founding fathers) and a controversial Nobel laureate stated in a peer-reviewed paper that antioxidant supplements may have caused more cancers than they have prevented'. And he was proven correct because studies have repeatedly shown that, with the possible exception of vitamin D, these supplements have negligible positive effect on healthy people, at least in terms of important things such as preventing cancer.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

to this permitted preservative is now
of epidemic proportions. It is a new
phenomenon, and at this present
time, there is no suggestion that we
have reached the top of that frequen-
cy or that it is starting to drop.’
British medics called for a ban
after estimating that one in ten
patients they are seeing with ecze-
ma or dermatitis is allergic to MI,
which has been increasingly used in
products since 2005.
Dr Treacy said he agreed with his
British counterparts over the poten-
tial risks. ‘Many Irish dermatologists
would join our British colleagues in
the suspicion of linking MI with
eczema,’ Dr Treacy said.
‘There is definitely an allergy to MI
out there, and we would have con-
cerns it could be linked to the ecze-
ma or contact dermatitis epidemic.’
Sophie Holmes, a 26-year-old mar-
keting executive in London, said she
needed steroids to reduce the swell-
ing and inflammation that flared up
after using Piz Buin sun cream.
Ms Holmes began to feel unwell as
she drove back from a skiing holiday
in the French Alps. She said: ‘It
started to swell in my face and in my
neck, and so I went straight to AE,’
she said. ‘They prescribed me with
steroids to reduce the swelling as it
was a worry that it was restricting
my airways . . . and could become
fatal.’ Tests later revealed that she
had an allergy to MI.
Manufacturers started to use MI
seriously after it was approved by
the European Commission as a pre-
servative for products left on the
skin in 2005. At the time, the availa-
ble data suggested it was safe. How-
ever, some experts say the true scale
of the problem has only come to
light as a result of it being used by
millions of people.
Concerns about the chemical will
be highlighted tonight on BBC’s
Watchdog programme, which has
been contacted by more than 150
people who have suffered skin reac-
tions to the Piz Buin product.
In a statement to the Irish Daily
Mail last night, a spokesman for the
company said: ‘Piz Buin 1 Day Long
provides safe and effective sun pro-
tection. It contains only permitted
ingredients at levels well within EU
standards set by regulators. Many
substances in our daily life, includ-
ing ingredients in cosmetic prod-
ucts, may cause irritation in some
people with a particular sensitivity…
We are continuously seeking to
improve the effectiveness and con-
sumer experience of our products.
‘As part of this ongoing process we
are currently updating Piz Buin 1
Day Long and, from summer 2014, a
new formulation that does not con-
tain MI will be available in the UK
and Ireland.’
Johnson Johnson insists that
Piz Buin 1 Day Long is safe and ef-
fective and it will not be recalling
bottles from the high street, but it
will be changing the ingredients.
Luxury brand Molton Brown con-
firmed last night that it will remove
cases emerging internationally. In one case, a
woman’s head and face swelled up so much
that doctors feared she would have trouble
breathing without urgent treatment.
In another, a holidaymaker’s skin became
so inflamed that she spent two days in a
Spanish hospital and needed steroids and
antihistamines to calm the allergic reaction.
MI is a preservative designed to extend
shelf life and has no useful properties for
users of the products.
Experts say the scale of the allergic reac-
tions to the chemical, which has been used
increasingly since 2005, is alarming. Derma-
tologists expect a reaction to a cosmetic
product of 1 or 2 per cent, but clinics say the
rate for MI has been more than 10 per cent.
Dublin dermatologist Dr Patrick J Treacy
told the Irish Daily Mail: ‘Off the top of my
head, there has been an increase of about 50
per cent in eczema in Ireland in the last five
years, particularly in children. There is no
definite scientific fact, but dermatologists
are very suspicious that there is a link be-
tween some forms of eczema and MI.’
Leading dermatologist Dr Ian White from
St Thomas’ Hospital, in London, said he is
witnessing a ‘new phenomenon’.
He said: ‘The frequency of reactions to MI is
unprecedented in my experience. We’ve nev-
er seen anything quite like it. Contact allergy

me with steroids’

who have all worn versions of the
floral appliqué Sicilian black lace
panel dress in recent months.
It’s not the first time a pattern by
the Italian fashion house has taken
bloom among stars. Earlier this year
at least ten were seen in different
versions of its lily of the valley print.
It reflects a wider trend of identi-
cal designer motifs cropping up on
the red carpet – said to be due to
fashion houses ‘gifting’ their new
looks to their most famous clients.
Page Daily Mail, Tuesday, May 7, 2013
Great Gatsby film in New York on
Sunday, was one of the edgiest to
date.
The 44-year-old wore the green,
white and black print as a silky
kimono-style top with matching
trousers – the night after attending
an event where socialite Nicky
Hilton, 29, was wearing the very
same print.
That occasion was the opening of
Dolce Gabbana’s new flagship
store on the city’s Fifth Avenue. So
it’s not too much of a leap to sug-
gest that Miss Hilton’s peplum-
style top may have prompted the
Australian singer to do a little
shopping while she was there. Of
course, Miss Minogue may equally
have been inspired by Penny Lan-
caster, who wore a low-cut shift
dress in the floral print the day
before that. The 42-year-old was
joined by husband Rod Stewart at
sleeved dress to a Prince’s Trust
awards ceremony in March, paired
a little oddly with white tights and
pearls.
Earlier that month, actress
Rachel Weisz, 43, chose the print
for an appearance on US television
show Good Morning America.
Less than a week earlier it had
been seen on these shores at the
Tesco mum of the year awards,
where 47-year-old TV presenter
Emma Forbes paired the peplum
top with trousers in the same
print.
The month before that model
Daisy Lowe, 24, had cut a rather
more glamorous figure at the Elle
style awards, in a strapless 50s-
style dress with a full skirt, again in
the distinctive print. Even former
Coronation Street star Helen Flan-
agan, who appeared in I’m A Celeb-
rity Get Me Out Of Here last year,
has got in on the act.
The 22-year-old wore a shift dress
like Miss Lancaster’s to the
National Television awards in
January.
And the print had been seen on
the red carpet at least twice before
that. First American actress Elisa-
beth Moss, 30, star of Mad Men and
West Wing, chose it for the Emmy
awards last September.
And last November, 35-year-old
Canadian actress Katheryn Win-
nick, best known for the TV series
Bones, wore a full-length dress in
the print for a film premiere.

be the sincerest form of
flattery.
And when Kylie Minogue is
doing the imitating, it’s a pretty
big compliment.
Trouble is, she’s not the only one.
So many celebrities seem to have
taken a fancy to this Dolce Gab-
bana print that it’s getting hard to
work out exactly who should feel
flattered…
The lily of the valley design has
been spotted on at least ten differ-
ent stars in barely eight months –
including three in the past five
days.

Repeat pattern: Sienna

IN FASHION jargon, it’s technically
known as a repeat pattern.
And this Dolce Gabbana poppy
print is living up to its name in
another sense, too.
This week Sienna Miller became
the latest celebrity to be spotted in
a version of the floral design.

trends, was beaten to it by A-listers,

the substance from their products
on the British market this month,
but it did not respond when con-
tacted about the Irish market.
It is claimed that the scale of MI’s
harm is more than twice the level of
another ingredient called MDBGN
(methydibromo glutaronitrile),
which was banned by the European
Commission in 2008.
Jeannette Brazel, Eczema Patients
Advocate at The Irish Skin Founda-
tion said: ‘If you had eczema, asth-
ma or hay fever as a child, you could
be more prone to have a reaction to
this chemical. You could be more at
risk of allergic contact dermatitis.
‘It’s not something that we’ve ex-
perienced with Irish patients, but
the evidence from Britain and other
countries is has certainly alerted us
to this concern.’
