Cosmetic hijama is a traditional wet-cupping practice. There is insufficient high-quality evidence to claim that the procedure treats acne, removes scars, or provides reliable skin rejuvenation, so such promises are not used in the service description. At Ahvar Clinic, appropriate patient selection, sterility, and safe technique are essential.

What it addresses / benefits

  • localized traditional procedure
  • combination of superficial skin treatment and vacuum
  • limited treatment area
  • requirement for aseptic technique
  • individualized assessment before treatment.

Preparation

Patients should report bleeding disorders, anemia, anticoagulant use, tendency to form keloid scars, and active skin disease.

How the procedure is performed

The skin is treated with antiseptic, superficial skin disruption is performed, and sterile or single-use cups are applied according to the selected protocol.

Result / recovery

Temporary marks and superficial skin wounds remain afterward. Bleeding, pigmentation, scarring, and infection are possible.
