In a previous study, the authors found persistent presence of acute inflammation markers such as C-reactive protein and complement factors locally in burn wounds. This persistence of acute inflammation may not only delay local burn wound healing but also have a systemic effect, for instance on the heart. Here, the effects of C1 esterase inhibitor (C1inh), an inhibitor of complement activation, on burn wound progression and the heart were analyzed in rats. Dorsal full-thickness burn wounds (2 4 cm) were induced on female Wistar rats (n = 14). The rats were divided into two groups (n = 7): a control group (just burns) and a C1inh group. C1inh was administered daily intravenously for 14 days. The burn wound, healthy skin from the hind leg (internal control), and the heart were then fixed in formalin. Tissues were analyzed for granulation tissue formation, reepithelialization, amount and type of infiltrating inflammatory cells (granulocytes and macrophages), and inflammatory markers (complement factors C3 and C4). C1inh treatment significantly reduced the amount of granulation tissue and significantly increased reepithelialization. C1inh also significantly reduced macrophage infiltration. Burns induced infiltration of macrophages into the ventricles of the heart and remarkably also into the atria of the heart. This effect could be counteracted by C1inh. These data show that systemic treatment with C1inh acts at different levels resulting in improved healing locally in burn wounds and systemically reduced inflammation in the heart. Therefore, C1inh might be a possible therapeutic intervention for burn wound patients.
It refers to the loving connection between humans and other living beings. It is truly difficult to describe, as it is a phenomenon both subtle and powerful: the language of the heart. We can connect to one another intuitively with our eyes, our words or our touch, but what is being communicated is always the language of the heart, a universal rhythm shared among all the living beings on our planet. And it's in this pure connection that we found our motto: "Touchable Love". It perfectly expresses what we wish to offer you during your stay at Retreat Bela Natureza, aside from comfort and wellbeing.
Through relaxed interactions and meditation sessions with the dogs we will be connected to very special healing moments, as well as learn more about intuitive communication and the feelings of the animals.
With our motto, "Touchable Love", we address ourselves to people, because words are our primary form of communication. But this love, which is almost materialized, tangible, has neither to do with humans nor with animals. It arises out of the loving interaction between the two; usually it is the animals who take the initiative and help us to open our hearts up wide.

Your journey to elevated beauty and confidence starts here.
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that rejuvenates and elevates sagging breasts, restoring their youthful contour and firmness. Over time, factors such as pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and aging can lead to loss of breast volume and ptosis (drooping). Through precise surgical techniques, excess skin is removed, and the breast tissue is reshaped and lifted to create a more youthful and perky appearance.
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic procedure to enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of the breasts. Through the strategic placement of implants, this surgery aims to achieve fuller, more proportionate breasts tailored to your unique preferences and anatomy. Dr. Chelsea Snider curates personalized breast augmentation plans based on your unique goals, ensuring natural-looking results that harmonize with your overall physique.
Breast fat grafting, also known as autologous fat transfer, offers a natural alternative to traditional breast augmentation. This innovative procedure involves harvesting fat from one area of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs, and transferring it to the breasts to enhance volume and shape. Dr. Snider utilizes advanced techniques to ensure safe and effective fat grafting, helping you achieve a fuller bust without implants.
A facelift is a surgical procedure that rejuvenates the face by addressing sagging skin, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. As we age, the skin loses elasticity, and facial tissues may descend, leading to a tired or aged appearance. A facelift tightens the underlying muscles and tissues and removes excess skin to restore a more youthful look. Dr. Snider uses advanced techniques to deliver natural-looking results, helping you turn back the clock.
Laser skin resurfacing is a non-invasive technique that revitalizes the appearance of the skin, tackling issues like wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven texture. Vida Bela Plastic Surgery uses advanced laser systems, including Tetra CO2 and MOTUS AZ+ Moveo lasers. This sophisticated method focuses precisely on affected skin layers, enhancing collagen formation and speeding up the natural healing response. As the skin recovers, it becomes smoother, tighter, and visibly younger-looking.
