Dr. Sam Speron Receives the 2012 Americas Most Compassionate Doctor Award

Park Ridge, IL (PRWEB) April 16, 2013

Dr. Sam Speron has been awarded the prestigious honor of being recognized as one of the 2012 Most Compassionate Doctors. The recognition is a component of the Patients Choice rating program where thousands of patients provide online feedback on bedside manner, doctor-patient face time, follow-up care, ease of appointment, setting, and courtesy of office staff.

The award recognizes faithful service to patients and out of 870,000 active doctors only 3% receive this honor where patients specifically give feedback on physicians who accompany compassion with their care.

I feel honored to have received this recognition from my own patients says Dr. Sam Speron, Chicago Plastic Surgeon. I feel that approaching treatment in a patient-centered context should be of upmost priority in order to ensure quality treatment and care. We strive to take all patient feedback, whether online or in person, very seriously."

Dr. Speron is the founder and medical director of Dr. Speron Plastic Surgery. He is board certified with the American Board of Plastic Surgery and an active member of both the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS).

American Society for Dermatologic Surgery Reports Skin Cancer Treatments As #1 Procedure of 2012

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) May 24, 2013

According to recent reports from the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery, skin cancer treatments topped the list of the most performed procedures in 2012 with more than 2.7 million treatments carried out. Laser and light procedures proved to be the second most popular with 1.5 million treatments, followed by neurotoxin injections and soft tissue fillers. Though 2012s data is quite similar to the year previous, President-Elect, Mitchel P. Goldman, MD, believes that 2013 may bring new changes to the data in several ways.

The data presented by the ASDS gives us a great insight into trends and allows us to make predictions about the year ahead, said board certified dermatologist and cosmetic surgeon Dr. Goldman. One of the more interesting statistics of the survey depicted only 8% of patients that underwent soft tissue fillers in 2012 were males. As director of the landmark dermatology center Goldman, Butterwick, Fitzpatrick, Groff & Fabi in San Diego, I absolutely believe that this number will increase in 2013. At my practice, Ive noticed more and more males seeking facial rejuvenation than ever before.

The American Society of Dermatologic Surgery is a unique organization representing dermatologic surgeons in the United States whom are leaders and experts in their field. With over 5,700 hundred members across the country, the ASDS strives to produce excellence and promote education in the field of dermatologic surgery through the development of new treatments, extensive research, and clinical trials. Dr. Goldman is no exception, having pioneered both laser and light-based treatments as well as the 6th most popular treatment of 2012, sclerotherapy for the treatment of unwanted leg, chest and hand veins.

Sclerotherapy is another procedure that we continue to see increase every year. Its an extremely safe and effective treatment for leg veins, and as more people learn about how easy it is to actually undergo the non-invasive injections, dermatologists will continue to treat more patients experiencing unwanted spider veins, said Dr. Goldman.

At GBFG&F in San Diego, Dr. Goldman helps his patients overcome a wide variety of cosmetic and medically necessary dermatologic procedures, from Botox for wrinkles to Photodynamic therapy for the treatment of precancerous lesions. With summer quickly approaching, Dr. Goldman hopes his patients will actively remember the importance of skin cancer prevention with sunscreen.

Skin cancer is completely avoidable, and its important that people understand the necessity of always wearing sunscreen. It only takes a few moments to apply before heading outside, and aside from its anti-aging benefits, it could save your life, said expert dermatologist Mitchel P. Goldman, MD.

Goldman, Butterwick, Fitzpatrick, Groff & Fabi: Cosmetic Laser Dermatology is a world-renowned aesthetic center in San Diego, California made up of five internationally distinguished skin care experts, including Mitchel P. Goldman, MD, Kimberly Butterwick, MD, Richard Fitzpatrick, MD, William Groff, DO, and Sabrina Fabi, MD. As highly acclaimed dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons who have contributed hundreds of medical papers to journals and medical textbooks as well as pioneered multiple key procedures, the services provided are among the most technologically advanced to date. With more than 38 different lasers, the award winning San Diego dermatologists of GBFG&F are able to provide patients with the most comprehensive selection of skincare treatments in the United States.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) March 06, 2013

Total revenues for all salon industry services (hair, skin, nails) plus salon retail grew at a robust 4.1% to $ 75.38 billion, according to the new 2012 Professional Salon Industry Haircare Study from Professional Consultants & Resources, the leading salon industry strategic consultants and data source. The total U.S. salon haircare market segment (services plus retail) registered $ 63.33 billion and grew at about 3.3%. There are nearly 288,300 salons and barbershops in the United States.

The professional beauty industry is strongly evolving," says Cyrus Bulsara, president. Mens salon/barber services and product sales showed nearly twice the growth of unisex salons. The nail category continued to grow strong at nearly four times salon market growth. Continuing the 2011 trends, haircolor, keratin/smoothing services and basic cutting and styling services were major growth-drivers. Clients and stylists continued to move from traditional independent salons and mid-tier chains to chair/suite rentals, family-economy chains and upscale men's barbershop chains. The continued growth of blow-dry bars added to total service growth.

Major study highlights, current style trends and high-growth areas indicate robust salon industry growth in the future:
