Med Spas Offer Alternatives To Surgery

Do you always look tired, angry, or stressed –
even when you’re not?

Many baby boomers are looking to delay signs of aging,
but not quite as many are willing to go under the knife to do so.

For that reason, procedures such as Botox injections and facial fillers
have been growing in popularity over the last several years,
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Botox

Some people feel that wrinkles around their add years to their appearance.

Botox erases crow’s feet, not to mention the deep frown lines between your eyebrows.

Really.

• 10 minutes.
• No surgery.
• No downtime.
• Very little discomfort.

Fillers

The name says it all.  Fill in those lines under your eyes.

No, not yourself!

That’s what Dr. G is here for.

Personally, I think that unless you have a super great plastic surgeon,
the results from these non-surgical procedures are far more natural looking.

3 Ways To Refresh Your Face For Spring

As seen on The Doctors, these 3 non-invasive facial rejuvenation procedures
can clear the cobwebs, buff ,and shine the face for a fresh spring look.

1. Clear Out Those Cobwebs (Spider Veins)

Spider veins that appear on the face may not be painful
but they can be unsightly.

Luckily, they are also quite easy to treat with the right laser.

2. Buff Away Peach Fuzz: Dermaplane!

Do you have peach fuzz on your face? Many of us do.

By removing this fine facial hair, other treatments are more effective.
Removal of peach fuzz will not cause it to grow back thicker or darker. 

It’s great to have this done before the final step:

3. Shine

Think of this as achieving a healthy glow:
Chemical Peels or Fractional Laser Skin Rejuvenation.

Have these procedures done during lunch and return to work
looking refreshed and ready for spring!

Did You Know?

Age spots aren’t caused by age.

They are caused by the sun.

“Sunshine is an attack on the skin, and one way the skin defends itself is to make pigment,” explains Ranella Hirsch, M.D., a cosmetic dermatologist in Cambridge, MA, and president-elect of the American Society of Cosmetic Dermatology & Aesthetic Surgery. If a patient is skeptical about her spots being solar related, Dr. Hirsch asks her to move her bra over a quarter of an inch to expose the skin that the sun never hits. “And then she sees what I mean,” she says. “If these changes really came from aging, you’d have them all over.”

How Can Med Spas Help?

1.     Light-based treatments: Lasers and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL or Photo Facials). Most of the time, several treatment sessions are necessary.

2.     Chemical Peels

3.     Skin Care Products to use at home

Bonus

Many of the treatments will also help with wrinkles!
I love a combination of Photo Facials and Chemical Peels.
And, of course, my Retin A.
