The Society of Plastic Surgical Skin Care Specialists (SPSSCS) will celebrate its 19th Annual Meeting in New York City with an exciting program that encompasses all aspects of skin care management featuring presentations by plastic surgeons, industry experts and skin care experts. Meeting courses will cover everything from permanent makeup to laser safety, and everything in between.

The meeting offers educational seminars and sessions for nurses, aestheticians and other trained skin care specialists working in the offices of plastic surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. Also featured are exhibits from companies manufacturing the latest products for medically-supervised skin care.

This years skin care meeting is jam-packed full of science driven courses and panels, says SPSSCS President-Elect and Program Chair, Abbey Helton. As Skin Care Specialists we partner with patients to assist them toward their aesthetic goals by collaboratively developing a treatment plan that takes into account their financial resources and lifestyle. Our meeting content offers skin care specialists the tools and knowledge they need to incorporate positive change to their practices and to help make them thriving and profitable no matter their location, size and support.

Two highlights from Skin Care 2013 include:

For the first time ever, the Skin Care Meeting will include multiple live chemical peel demonstrations. During a breakout session, four skincare companies will review application techniques, strategies for getting the best results and allow the skin care specialists the ability to experience these peels firsthand.

Another highlight of this years meeting will be a comprehensive course taught by some of the countrys leading plastic surgeons on non-invasive skincare options. New technology and data will be presented as well including presentations on biostimulatory fillers, micro-needling and platelet rich plasma, and laser resurfacing.

According to statistics from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, in 2012 almost 8.5 million nonsurgical cosmetic procedures were performed by the board certified doctors in the United States who are most likely to perform cosmetic procedures. Additionally, almost 24% of the doctors surveyed said that someone other than a physician performs injections in their practice. Almost 11 million nonsurgical procedures were performed by BOTH physicians and their physician assistants and nurse injectors.

The Cleopatra Lift - A New Non Surgical Option to Aging Offered by Vancouver Physician

Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) May 25, 2013

According to world-renowned scholars, Queen Cleopatra VII was one of the most beautiful and powerful women that ever lived. Cleopatras legendary beauty moved nations and her allure was felt by some of the most powerful men in her time. Cleopatra was also a scientist and used many beauty remedies to keep her skin glowing and fresh, from her legendary milk baths to wrinkle treatments made with bees- wax, maringa oil and cyprus grass.

Cleopatra was said to possess the Golden Ratio, a combination of facial measurements that evoke the most attraction and positive emotion from a human being. It is roughly defined as a face that is one and half times as long as it is wide (1 : 1.618 to be exact). This isnt that impressive on its own, until you realize that this ratio is the key to everything from encrypting computer data to the numbers of spirals on a sunflower head, our own limbs and why the Mona Lisa is so pleasing to the eye.

Other measurements are taken, but the Golden Ratio is the foundation used by many cosmetic physicians to enhance, correct and restore your facial beauty to its most appealing without giving your face an unbalanced or unnatural look.

The Cleopatra Lift at Beautiful Canadian Laser and Skin Care clinic is a combination effect of Xeomin Cosmetic and Radiesse to restore your natural features with a natural collagen lift.

Xeomin Cosmetic is the latest generation Botulinium Toxin type A treatment. Botox was the first of these types of products. Xeomin differs from Botox in one key area: it is free from the complexing proteins, hence its nickname naked Botox or pure Botox. Xeomin is equally ef- fective in reducing and relaxing wrinkles. Comparing Botox to Xeomin is like comparing Coke to Pepsi. The taste is a personal preference, but the fact remains they are both colas that are very similar. Xeomin is used in exactly the same way as traditional Botox treatments, making it easy for physicians to treat patients as the duration, dosing and so on are all very familiar to them already if they have been using Botox.

Beautiful Canadian Laser and Skin Care Clinic has been using volumizing fillers to contour facial features non-surgically and cost-effectively for many years. In addition to Xeomin, Dr Shah also uses a filler such as Radiesse to add back lost volume to facial features.

Radiesse Volumizing filler immediately provides the volume and lift needed to slow the signs of aging due to the calcium-based microspheres and gel that comprise the product. What is unique about Radiesse is that the filler itself provides a scaffold under the skin, a structure that stimulates your own collagen to grow. This process continues for several months, which extends the initial effects of Radiesse. Stimulating your natural collagen to grow gives a person a very natural lift over time that lasts a year or longer, long after the calcium microspheres have disappeared.

The Cleopatra Lift, a combination of Xeomin and Radiesse treatments, provides patients with the ultimate liquid facelift without surgery, a long-lasting treatment that combines the best of both of these procedures with minimal downtime.
