Chanel has a range called sublimage...it's divine...you should try it... oh really, I like the sound of this too.....is it expensive? Yes it is quite steep but completely worth it...it fixes lines and stops new ones from coming on... Yeah, I saw the price online but think I may go for it. thanks for the recommendation x

I initially went to the dermatologist at the GMC on Beach rd. I get my moles checked every year. There were a couple he decided he didn't like and took them off for biopsy. When it came back as malignant, he referred me over to Dermacare Skin centre on Al Wasl. The Dr there does not mess about. He's very thorough and they do all the mole mapping there as well. Not good when you see someone who is dismissive - you cannot mess about with this. If in doubt, take it off and biopsy it. Thank you for info, will go there. I was quite shocked with the attitude of the doctor I saw, his advice was to use moisteriser on the mole bothering me! Hi, I really need my moles checked specially how we exposed to the sun so much here. Is this the one in jumeira 1, villa 306? If you have the number, could you kindly post it, there so many skin places on al wasl. thank you

Thanks to all of your advice, I convinced my husband to let us adopt and we did. Have a beautiful dog, we got him through SNIFF and I have no regrets. Definitely not worth buying when there so many loving dogs in need of a home.

All the shops are at it, even Spinney's. Bought fresh prawns fro there once and when I got home and opened the bag, they were totally off...... I check dates now. I bought prawns from Geant the other day within the date on the package and they were off. I cant believe stores would risk it with seafood! becareful

Dear ladies, you will see more of my posts with lots of different questions as we have just moved to Dubai and I need to build up my network, thanks in advance for your patience :) I am looking for a dentist who could do a good cosmetic job (a piece of my front tooth has broken off, not a great picture!!). It has been done before in Europe but everything has it's expiry date :) Thnx! Hi, Maichka. I would highly recommend Dr Chris Johansson at Dr Michaels, on Al wasl road. He is a real perfectionist, after having my teeth bleached he redid my two front crowns and built up some of my chipped teeth with just filling. Other dentist told me for the chips I need veneers so we very happy to get away with only having fillings. My kids love him too. Good luck :-) Thank you so much for this! x Dr Michaels dental clinic is v good, I have seen Dr Alex and Dr Chris there, like them both. Dr Chris will even do my cleaning when the hygienist is fully booked

Hi ROSIE2121, I have my own swimwear boutique here - there are ways you can sell without having your own license, I only sell when I'm covered by someone elses license, for example Ripe Market and other online stores in Dubai that sell my goods for me. Ok, thank you for the advice. So, I would need to sell my dress to some one with a market, is what you saying?

I am actually scared to continue with this relationship, after reading your comments. I appreciate your inputs and you are right, it will definitely be complicated. He wants to meet my family yes. I have explained to him that I would like to meet his family too, if they wouldn't accept me now, they will not accept me in the future. He is willing to do that. Like he said, at the end of the day he wants to be with me and it's something he will explain to his family. We can only hope for the best, hopefully they will understand that we love each other dearly. He is definitely now married, I have been to his house on a regular basis when his parents are out. I have met some of his sisters and brothers, not all though. IF, I say IF, we decide to get married eventually, would it make any difference if we do it in the UK? Will I have more rights? It's really hard to think about it, and indefinitely don't want to end up in a situation where I will have to give up my kids one day! After your advice I have decided to put all plans in hold until I know where I stand exactly with right etc in the future. In fact, there is no rush. If we are meant to be together, we will be. Only time will tell. There are really a lot of stories about there about children been taken away from British woman, and left with the man. At least in the Uk, that would not happen to you. You should put your foot down and meet his family, things may be clearer for you after then. How long exactly have you been with him?

Thanks for your replies, ladies. :) I read up on the side effects-- well, that is to say, I came across a gazillion horror stories when I googled it.[url=http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys.php'>[img'>http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-basic/unsure.gif[/img'>[/url'> I thought for sure there must be some people who don't hate it?? Hi MC x I had an awful time with the coil, when it was first fitted I was in so much pain, had to be put on tramadol. The every period hurt so bad and had spotting all the time. Have you had children already?

Hi, I'm moving to Dubai in a week to start a job as designer and I was wondering if I need my university degree attested? If so is it possible to do from Dubai? Having a panic as it's just a week until I go and thought the degree certificate itself would be enough proof of qualification. If anyone could help that would be great. Thank you. Definitely and it should be attested in your home country. Maybe your embassy here in Dubai can do it.

So here's the story... I'm Christian and in a relationship with a Muslim man. I'm half South African, half British and he is from Ras Al Khaimah. My family is very open minded, however, I think they would prefer for me to marry a Christian. I don't think they will refuse it if he is not, as long as he takes good care of me and love me. For his family, they are Bedouin. Close minded. Obviously his family would never accept it if he wants to marry a Christian Westerner. He is talking about getting engaged and I am keen on the idea. We really love each other and we are not only a couple, but best friends also. He doesn't want to tell his family for obvious reasons, but once we are married he would like me to meet his family. He thinks they will accept me into their family once we are married. I know his parents wouldn't be happy. Has anyone been in a situation like this before. The problem is not our religions, the problem is his parents are old and not open minded so wouldn't like any change in tradition. When you marry someone, you marry their family. You need to love them and get on with them. Many relationship from same cultures and religions dont last due to so many small things now days, what you want to take on is huge. Unless, he is a Muslim that has lived in a western country and seen your world completely he will not understand you ever. What about him wanting to meet your family? Has he shown any interest in your back ground and culture? This works both ways, all the sacrifices cant just be done to you. I would only go ahead with something like this if I was in my country where I have rights to future children if something went wrong...

Hello - my husband and I are new to Dubai from Vancouver and we are both looking for a family doctor. I am aware of the govt website of physician database in UAE but would appreciate a recommendation on a good family doctor male and female that you can provide. Location is not a problem. Cheers Mara. Dr Mohammed Al Yassiry at Dr Nicolas & Asp in Marina, he is so good, very informative and caring doctor, always takes his time to explain everything to you.

A green juice or smoothie. Juice: - Spinach, celery, cucumber, pineapple, 1/4 ginger - watercress, green apple, 1/2 orange, wheatgrass (you can use powder) You can blend the juice with 1/4 avocado - beets, carrots, 1 slice of pineapple , ginger & baby spinach Smoothies: - almond or coconut milk + greens (whatever you have), low GI fruit & some nuts/ seeds. I add flaxseeds, chia or hemp If you feel hungry eat some raw veggies like lettuce, cucumber, bell peppers 1 he after drinking the juice Ok, it will be tough but I am determined. Thanks

A detox with veggie juices & low GI fruits + green salads. Start your day with hot lemon & tiny bit of honey. Avoid dairy as it causes bloating . Fill a jug with filtered water add some ginger slices, cucumber slices, lemon & mint leaves, leave it overnight in the fridge & drink from it throughout the day. Drink herbal & green tea at least 2-3 times a day, take a good omega 3 supplement. You can add 1 avocado per week to your diet for healthy fats & few nuts. Flaxseeds & chia in your salads are loaded with nutrition & they help in weight loss. Add ACV to salads in helps for weight loss. Good luck Sounds good, will try. What would recommend for breakfast though?

I am glad someone found Dr Eva again, as I was quite disappointed I did not find her when I had a check-up at Dr Roze Clinic a couple of weeks ago. Is there an implantologist working with Dr Eva and Dr Stefan? edited by Loukoum on 11/06/2014 Hi, Loukoum. Saw you looking for an implantologist, I had my first implant and extraction with Prof Steen at Dr Michaels last week. He is an experienced danish surgeon and very good. I was extremely nervous and dont think I made it easy for him at first :-/. Dr Chris at Dr Michaels referred me there and the experience was not a bad as I thought. I would highly recommended them both. Good luck x Second that, dr steen is v. Good
