Thai Hair Transplant Doctor Gains Global Recognition
Dr Ben Butwong, widely known as 'Dr Ben,' a long-standing expert in hair transplantation and Director of Mediren Clinic in Thailand, was recently invited as a guest speaker and trainer at the prestigious annual meeting of the Indonesian Society of Dermatology and Venereology (PERDOSKI), held in Bali, Indonesia. She shared her expertise on the Long Hair FUE hair transplant technique, a specialised method gaining traction in Asia. Her participation as a guest speaker at this international platform reaffirmed her position as a regional leader in the hair transplant field. It also marked a significant step towards fostering academic and technological collaborations in Southeast Asia. Dr Ben held discussions with PERDOSKI's leadership on future directions for developing medical professionals, reflecting her internationally recognised experience of over 15 years. As a pioneer in developing hair transplant techniques tailored specifically for Asian individuals, she has played a key role in elevating Thailand's status towards becoming a medical hub in Asia. A major milestone was her leadership in organising the FUE ASIA Conference & Workshop 2024 at the Berkeley Hotel Bangkok, which welcomed experts from over 10 countries and was supported by the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB). The FUE ASIA: ASEAN Regional Workshop, held on 12–13 July 2025 in Bali, Indonesia, in collaboration with PERDOSKI, served as a crucial gathering for hair restoration professionals across the ASEAN region—including Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, and the Philippines. The event featured live demonstrations, lectures, and workshops focusing on cutting-edge techniques and innovation in hair restoration. Thailand was represented by Dr Benjawan Butwong, an expert in FUE technique and a board member of FUE Asia, who participated as an academic adviser and observer. Several Thai doctors also took part in the workshop, showcasing Thailand's growing presence in the global hair restoration arena. The event also featured prominent international speakers such as Dr Kavish Chauhan, Dr Sarah Alenezi, Dr Kuldeep Saxena, Dr Ivan Kurniadi, and Dr Anayene Craveiro Mendes, who delivered presentations covering all dimensions of hair restoration medicine—from hairline design and beard/eyebrow transplants to Long Hair FUE graft harvesting and modern post-operative care techniques. This event marked another significant leap in raising ASEAN's hair transplantation standards to be on par with global benchmarks.

Spontaneous glass breakage: causes and the role of internal stress
Glass suddenly shattering on its own may seem mysterious, but it can be explained scientifically. Last week, a Thai woman suffered a serious hand injury when a tempered glass door suddenly shattered as she tried to open it at an office building in Bangkok. This incident highlights the potential danger even with safety glass, which is designed to reduce injury during breakage. This phenomenon often occurs without warning and can affect bathroom glass panels, windows or even dining tables. In most cases, the issue arises with tempered glass, a type of safety glass that has been specially reinforced for use in car windows, large household panels or shower enclosures. Tempered glass is designed to improve safety: when it breaks, it shatters into small, rounded particles (similar in size to corn kernels), which are far less sharp and reduce the risk of injury. Tempered glass is designed to be safe. However, it can still cause harm, especially in confined spaces or at close range. This is particularly true if the broken fragments have sharp edges or if the breakage projects shards outward with force. Common causes of spontaneous breakage: Minor damage during installation: A small chip on the glass edge may develop into a larger crack over time. Even a slight amount of pressure later could cause the entire sheet to shatter. Stress from tight framing: If the glass is fitted too tightly into a frame, with no room to expand or contract due to temperature changes or wind pressure, internal stress builds up. This stress may eventually lead to cracking or breakage. Nickel sulphide inclusions: Impurities like nickel sulphide can form inside the glass during manufacturing. These particles can expand when exposed to heat, creating internal pressure that causes the glass to break from within. Thermal stress: Sudden or extreme changes in temperature can cause rapid expansion or contraction, putting excessive strain on the glass structure. Insufficient glass thickness: Glass that is too thin may not be able to withstand wind pressure. This can often be mitigated by using laminated safety film. Recommended preventive measures: Use glass products from certified and reputable manufacturers. Carefully inspect glass edges for chips or flaws before installation. Ensure installers leave sufficient clearance in frames, and avoid over-tightening. Apply safety films to vulnerable areas such as car windows or large household panes. Watch for early warning signs such as warping, rainbow-like patterns or unusual creaking sounds, which could indicate stress. Ultimately, preventing spontaneous glass breakage requires care at every stage - from production to installation. With proper attention to detail, the risk of this type of accident can be greatly reduced, ensuring better safety and peace of mind for everyone in the space.

Dangerous dreams: Inside internet's 'sleepmaxxing' craze
WASHINGTON - From mouth taping to rope-assisted neck swinging, a viral social media trend is promoting extreme bedtime routines that claim to deliver perfect sleep -- despite scant medical evidence and potential safety risks. Influencers on platforms including TikTok and X are fuelling a growing wellness obsession popularly known as "sleepmaxxing," a catch-all term for activities and products aimed at optimising sleep quality. The explosive rise of the trend -- generating tens of millions of posts -- underscores social media's power to legitimise unproven health practices, particularly as tech platforms scale back content moderation. One so-called insomnia cure involves people hanging by their necks with ropes or belts and swinging their bodies in the air. "Those who try it claim their sleep problems have significantly improved," said one clip on X that racked up more than 11 million views. Experts have raised alarm about the trick, following a Chinese state broadcaster's report that attributed at least one fatality in China last year to a similar "neck hanging" routine. Such sleepmaxxing techniques are "ridiculous, potentially harmful, and evidence-free," Timothy Caulfield, a misinformation expert from the University of Alberta in Canada, told AFP. "It is a good example of how social media can normalize the absurd." Another popular practice is taping of the mouth for sleep, promoted as a way to encourage nasal breathing. Influencers claim it offers broad benefits, from better sleep and improved oral health to reduced snoring. But a report from George Washington University found that most of these claims were not supported by medical research. Experts have also warned the practice could be dangerous, particularly for those suffering from sleep apnea, a condition that disrupts breathing during sleep. Other unfounded tricks touted by sleepmaxxing influencers include wearing blue- or red-tinted glasses, using weighted blankets, and eating two kiwis just before bed. ' Damaging' "My concern with the 'sleepmaxxing' trend -- particularly as it's presented on platforms like TikTok -- is that much of the advice being shared can be actively unhelpful, even damaging, for people struggling with real sleep issues," Kathryn Pinkham, a Britain-based insomnia specialist, told AFP. "While some of these tips might be harmless for people who generally sleep well, they can increase pressure and anxiety for those dealing with chronic insomnia or other persistent sleep problems." While sound and sufficient sleep is considered a cornerstone of good health, experts warn that the trend may be contributing to orthosomnia, an obsessive preoccupation with achieving perfect sleep. "The pressure to get perfect sleep is embedded in the sleepmaxxing culture," said Eric Zhou of Harvard Medical School. "While prioritising restful sleep is commendable, setting perfection as your goal is problematic. Even good sleepers vary from night to night." Pinkham added that poor sleep was often fuelled by the "anxiety to fix it," a fact largely unacknowledged by sleepmaxxing influencers. "The more we try to control sleep with hacks or rigid routines, the more vigilant and stressed we become -- paradoxically making sleep harder," Pinkham said. Beauty over health Many sleepmaxxing posts focus on enhancing physical appearance rather than improving health, reflecting an overlap with "looksmaxxing" –- another online trend that encourages unproven and sometimes dangerous techniques to boost sexual appeal. Some sleepmaxxing influencers have sought to profit from the trend's growing popularity, promoting products such as mouth tapes, sleep-enhancing drink powders, and "sleepmax gummies" containing melatonin. That may be in violation of legal norms in some countries like Britain, where melatonin is available only as a prescription drug. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine has recommended against using melatonin to treat insomnia in adults, citing inconsistent medical evidence regarding its effectiveness. Some medical experts also caution about the impact of the placebo effect on insomnia patients using sleep medication -- when people report real improvement after taking a fake or nonexistent treatment because of their beliefs. "Many of these tips come from non-experts and aren't grounded in clinical evidence," said Pinkham.
