Permanent Make-up Correction Options and Camouflage and Corrective Services are Well Received at Long-Time-Liner

Beverly Hills, CA (PRWEB) April 15, 2013

The modern woman seeks effortless beauty, naturally defined features, and more free time. So she looks to permanent cosmetics to enhance her beauty and simplify her life. Luckily, the modern woman has many options when she chooses where to receive her services. Like any industry, there are primitive methods, cutting edge, state of the art techniques, and everything in between. Unfortunately, in the past, there were not so many options, and many were literally permanent changes.

Today, there are many women living with choices they made in the 80s and 90s concerning their permanent beauty. Methods consist of soft-tap, where a technician manually imbeds drops of color into the skin through a tapping method of a very sharp knife, and more. There is tattoo make-up, where a tattoo artist uses an actual tattoo gun to draw shapes into the delicate flesh of the face. Then, permanent cosmetic machines, developed to be gentler and more precise, have emerged and run the gamut of cheap and rudimentary contraptions to highly developed and meticulously engineered pieces of machinery. Whatever the method, some technicians, pigments, or devices can leave permanent damage to the skin, and the overall look of the clients' face.

These past mistakes have created a rise in demand for corrective services. Over time, a womans face will change, due to gravity, the aging process and exposure to the sun and environment. Permanent make-up also changes. The colors fade, migrate beneath the skin and blur. Strong pigments hang on, while weaker pigments exfoliate and metabolize from the skin.

Dr. Sam Speron Reveals New Minimally Invasive In-Office Options for Cellulite Removal

Park Ridge, IL (PRWEB) May 07, 2013

Dr. Sam Speron Reveals New Minimally Invasive In-Office Options for Cellulite Removal.

Cellulite is a term to describe superficial pockets of trapped fat which cause uneven dimpling. Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not related to obesity and affects all body types and sizes. It is estimated that over 80% of women over the age of 20 have cellulite.

Cellulite treatment options vary from more holistic approaches to medical procedures that target cellulite such as laser, Velasmooth, liposuction, fat injections and cellulite release. It has been found that exercise and a diet rich in fiber, fruits, and vegetables helps reduce cellulite. Exercise is helpful for reducing cellulite by increasing blood circulation, building muscle tone, and reducing body fat.

When opting for popular cellulite creams, it is best to get those that contain retinols as they improve skin texture to lessen the cellulite appearance. Medical devices that are known for being somewhat effective are Velasmooth and laser treatments. Velasmooth uses combined energy of bi-polar radio frequency and infrared light to reduce the appearance of cellulite. Laser cellulite removal is a popular non-surgical procedure which stimulates the breakdown of fat and cellulite.

"Cellulite is very common among women of many different body types," says Dr. Sam Speron, Chicago plastic surgeon and consumer advocate. "There are several non-surgical medical treatment options as well as surgical options such as cellulite release with possible fat injections. I always advise a personal consultation but usually an in-office procedure done under local anesthesia without scars is helpful to release the cellulite for most patients!"

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).

Breast Reconstruction Options Abound, Says Thousand Oaks Surgeon

Thousand Oaks, California (PRWEB) May 23, 2013

The phased surgical approach taken by actress Angelina Jolie for her preventive double mastectomy is not the only option available to women undergoing breast reconstruction surgery, according to Thousand Oaks plastic surgeon Dr. Kouros Azar (http://www.azarplasticsurgery.com).

Jolie's recent announcement about her double mastectomy drew attention to genetic testing that can gauge a woman's risk of cancer. But it also highlighted the decisions women face about breast reconstruction.

"Ms. Jolie's choice of tissue expanders for her breast reconstruction is appropriate for many women," Dr. Azar says. "But for other women undergoing a preventive mastectomy or those diagnosed with breast cancer, my Thousand Oaks practice offers reconstruction options that include having implants inserted at the time of the mastectomy or using a patient's own tissue to reconstruct the breast mound."

What's important, says Dr. Azar, is that women know they have choices, including the choice not to reconstruct their breasts.

"Many women choose immediate breast reconstruction with implants," Dr. Azar says. "This eliminates the need for additional surgery and provides the psychological benefit of minimizing the deformity after mastectomy." But, either because of personal preference or body type, he says, immediate reconstruction isn't always the best choice.

Using tissue expanders does involve additional plastic surgery, says the Thousand Oaks surgeon. By performing the reconstruction in stages using expanders, new skin is actually created in much the same way as during a pregnancy. In the case of breast reconstruction, implants are inserted into the extra space. Jolie's surgeon at the Pink Lotus Breast Center provides a detailed look at the multiple phases involved with the celebrity's care (http://www.pinklotusbreastcenter.com/breast-cancer-101/2013/05/a-patients-journey-angelina-jolie/).

Other women choose what's known as autologous flap reconstruction, which means the surgeon uses the patient's own tissue taken from a donor site in another area of the body, such as the abdomen, the latissimus dorsi, or the buttocks. An innovative procedure, called DIEP (deep inferior epigastric perforators) flap reconstruction, involves complicated microsurgery, Dr. Azar says, but it is becoming a preferred method because it preserves the strength of abdominal muscles, requires a shorter recovery, and provides a slimmer appearance.

No matter what a woman ultimately decides, Dr. Azar says, her choice should be based on her preference after discussing all of her options with her physician.

Dr. Kouros Azar (http://www.azarplasticsurgery.com) is a board-certified plastic surgeon serving Thousand Oaks, Simi Valley, Agoura Hills, and Westlake Village. After earning his medical degree from Case Western Reserve University, Dr. Azar completed a general surgery residency at University of Arizona and a fellowship in plastic and reconstructive surgery at the University of Utah. He is a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery. He performs a variety of reconstructive and cosmetic surgical techniques for the face, breast, and body, and he offers a wide range of non-surgical aesthetic treatments.

Seven Cosmetic Laser Treatments Give DeRoberts Plastic Surgery Patients More Options

Syracuse, NY (PRWEB) December 20, 2012

At DeRoberts Plastic Surgery in Syracuse, cosmetic surgery has increasingly relied upon the cutting-edge possibilities of laser technology. Dr. DeRoberts is now carrying the latest innovations in lasers that are used for an array of minimally invasive cosmetic skin treatments.

Much like standard CO2 treatments before it, the Matrix Fractional CO2 skin treatment throws collagen production into hyperdrive, improving the complexion. This new and improved laser does not affect the upper layer of skin and will not leave scarring or redness like its predecessor. This resurfacing procedure is used to positively impact areas around the face, neck, and back. If you want to treat skin damage, wrinkles, discoloration, abnormal pore size, or just improve the overall complexion of your skin, Fractional CO2 laser therapy may be an ideal solution for your needs, Dr. DeRoberts said.

Similarly, the Palomar Starlux is commonly utilized for photofacials and removing age spots. The Erbium laser is used for micro laser peeling and also targets larger areas and deeper layers of skin to expose a better overall complexion.

The Cheveux 810 nm Diode Laser, on the other hand, is used for permanently removing hair from targeted areas. The Lyra Nd:YAG laser is used to treat unsightly varicose veins that may have you wanting to cover up your legs. A V-Beam pulsed dyed laser uses a highly concentrated pulse of light to target and lighten the appearance of blood and skin cells that are adversely affected by rosacea, birthmarks, warts, and acne. Tri-Lase Q-Switched Nd:YAG & Erbium YAG Laser combines the two most popular wavelengths for skin resurfacing (Q-switched Nd:YAG & Er:YAG) to remove tattoos and pigmented lesions with predictable results and a minimal risk of adverse reactions.

In Syracuse, laser hair removal is one of the most popular laser treatments at the office of Dr. DeRoberts. Women who wish to have smooth legs and underarms without the hassle of shaving can achieve the same goals with treatments from the Cheveux 810 nm Diode laser. The procedure is powerful enough for lasting results but delicate enough for the face. Men who dont wish to shave their beards and mustaches daily can also benefit from using this cosmetic option.

While laser procedures make up an important part of the doctors practice, there are a number of other offerings available to patients. For breast augmentation, Syracuse residents can trust Dr. DeRoberts to enhance existing breast tissue or replace tissue that was removed due to breast cancer or other trauma. Both saline and silicone implants are available. Decisions are made collaboratively between the patient and the physician after a discussion is had to determine the individual patients wishes.

Dr. DeRoberts is a board-certified plastic surgeon. Syracuse residents can rest assured knowing they are getting exemplary care from an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. He has also received several prestigious awards, including the Glancy Award from the Southeastern Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Presbyterian Homes Opens Door to New Retirement Living Financing Options

Evanston, IL (PRWEB) April 10, 2013

Presbyterian Homes, owner-operator of three continuing care retirement communities in the Chicago area, has added more flexibility, affordability and choice to its residence agreements to meet the changing lifestyles of older adults. Coupled with the rebounding of the real estate market, prospective residents could potentially move right into one of its retirement communities.

For prospective residents who are in the process of selling their homes, Presbyterian Homes created a deferred entrance fee plan. Now a new resident can pay just one-third of their entrance fee at move-in. The remainder is paid when their home is sold.

Retirees today want and need more choice and options, says Robert Werdan, vice president of marketing and public relations at Presbyterian Homes. We have looked at all the ways lifestyle and individual circumstances can impact needs and have built more flexibility into our residence agreements.

Presbyterian Homes is now offering a Plan A Life Care choice of a 50% or 90% refund to a residents estate with a Life Care agreement. For retirees who have purchased long-term care insurance, the organization offers a less expensive Plan B Continuing Care agreement, also with refundable options, which complements most long-term care policies.

Another new flexible feature is a $ 400 per month ($ 800 per couple) discretionary spending account. Instead of paying for a rigid monthly meal program, this discretionary amount can be spent on more than dining or entertaining a guest. Residents can spend the amount on a variety of things including concert tickets, transportation, purchases in the gift store or hair salon services. Those who are away for extended periods would receive a credit for the monthly amount.

For more information about Presbyterian Homes' continuing care retirement communities, which include Westminster Place in Evanston, IL; The Moorings of Arlington Heights in Arlington Heights, IL; and Lake Forest Place in Lake Forest, IL, call 847-866-1641.

AMI of Atlanta Offers Innovative and Safe Weight-Loss Options

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 30, 2013

AMI offers Atlanta residents the latest in weight-loss discovery. This forward focused approach is evidenced by their new HCG diet and weight loss plans. HCG is a natural hormone that humans produce called Human Chorionic Gonadotropin. This hormone is responsible for managing body fat and the bodys overall weight, as well as actual body shape and percentage of fat stored. The body uses the hormone HCG to maintain a healthy weight balance, but the hormone can also be used to lose extra fat and body weight. By following AMIs diet and supplementing with the natural hormone (either by drops or injections), many people have been able to lose as much as a pound a day.

Many people have trouble dieting because of nagging hunger and irritability that results from restricting caloric intake. While dieting, many people feel weak and unable to function as they usually would. This is because the body treats a drop in caloric intake as an emergency and will slow the bodys metabolism down to try and preserve fat. This makes it more difficult to lose weight and results in you feeling sluggish and tired. The HCG diet is revolutionary because when you take the hormone drops or injections, a low-calorie diet can be maintained without the regular unpleasant side-effects. Instead, the body uses fat as an energy supply, constantly breaking down extra fat. This means you will lose fat faster and have an easier time sticking to your diet.

AMIs reputable Atlanta facility is dedicated to delivering safe solutions to people struggling with their weight. Consultants at AMI can walk you through the best options for your specific needs and provide information for immediate results. Not only do we focus on improving body image and appearance, but AMI is also dedicated to improving overall health and wellness. Quick and effective weight loss means healthier cholesterol levels, reduced risk of heart attack and diabetes, improved sleep (especially if you suffer from a condition like sleep apnea) and a reduction of other weight related health issues. AMI understands the consequences of an unhealthy weight and helps their patients overcome the obstacles to a healthy body and lifestyle.

Using HCG in conjunction with a doctor approved diet while being monitored by a doctor is completely safe and healthy. Because a physician is supervising the program, you can lose two to ten pounds each week, risk free. A doctor is involved in each phase of the weight loss project and can help you to lose weight at the rate that you choose. HCG can be extremely helpful to those who have struggled in the past with losing weight and maintaining a healthy body weight. AMI guarantees that through a controlled diet and using HCG as a supplement, you can lose weight comfortably, quickly, conveniently, and affordably.
