The Latest Technology

The Best All-In-One Facial Treatment

What is the HydraFacial^TM?

It is the newest breakthrough in skin resurfacing technology.
It’s available only to physicians.

The Hydrafacial does all this — SIMULTANEOUSLY:

• Cleanses
• Exfoliates
• Extracts
• Hydrates
• Nourishes

What Can You Expect?

• Improved acne-prone skin; less oily
• Refined skin tone & skin texture; reduced under-eye puffiness
• Hydrated skin; improved suppleness & elasticity of skin

How Does It Work?

It exfoliates dead skin cells and extracts impurities
with a vacuum-based skin abrasion tip
while simultaneously bathing the healthy underlying skin
with active serums that cleanse deeply, exfoliate thoroughly,
hydrate completely and provide residual antioxidant protection.

When you leave, you look amazing!
And the glow lasts for days.

I want one every week.

Honestly,

Does My Baby Need Sunscreen?

Dr. Benabio, in The Dermatology Blog, reminds us that babies’ skin is perfect
but very sensitive to the sun.

“Baby skin is thinner, has less natural moisturizers and has fewer pigment cells,
making it more vulnerable to the environment than adult skin.

This is important especially in summer.

Studies have shown that up to 83% of babies get sunburned
their first year of life.

This is our fault, not theirs.”

Tips To Keep Your Baby Safe This Summer

1. Newborns up to 6 months should be kept out of the sun.
Cover them up with light clothing and hats,
and put the top down on the stroller.

2. Babies 6 months and older should not be exposed to the sun
between 10am and 2pm. When they are outdoors,
they should have sunscreen on all exposed skin.
Because their immature skin can absorb chemicals more easily,
choose sunscreens with zinc and titanium
with an SPF of 30 or more.

3. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen near their hairline, on their ears,
and at the edges of clothing.

Choose sunscreens that are white or opaque;
it’s easier to see where you’ve applied the sunscreen,
and he’ll look cute anyway.

How To Choose A Med Spa

Don’t like what you see in the mirror?

Thinking about visiting a med spa for help with those
frown lines, age spots or unwanted hair?

Be careful when you choose a med spa.
Although modern medical techniques can produce dramatic cosmetic results,
possible complications can be much more serious than a bad haircut.

The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery
offers advice for patients considering cosmetic procedures in a spa or salon:

• Physician on site.
  He or she should be at the location
  and available to respond to any questions or problems.
  Emergency care should be immediately available
  in case something goes wrong
• Pain Management.
  Discuss pain management options.
  Even minor cosmetic treatments can cause discomfort.
• Appropriate Facility.
  Cosmetic procedures are medical procedures.
  They aren’t safe in a home or hotel room.
• Price.
  Don’t rely on price.
  A deep discount on the cost of procedures
  often indicates you aren’t receiving the best treatment.

Be beautiful and safe!
