  • Botox Day Tuesday October 24, FREE Age and Sun Spot Removal

    For those getting Botox or fillers next week we are offering one FREE treatment to an age, sun spot or skin tag! See below for details.

    Botox Day is Tuesday October 24 with discounts on Botox and fillers such as Juvederm. Botox is $13/unit or $195/syringe (normally $16/unit and $240/syringe) and fillers are 10% off. Voluma is an injectable filler that augments and lifts the cheeks and Volbella subtly augments the lips and improves perioral wrinkles. A new product, Vollure, is for fine lines and wrinkles.

    Mused after running the half marathon in Columbus yesterday. How can it not be exciting waiting to run with 18,000 others listening to The Star Spangled Banner followed by Born to Run and U2’s It’s A Beautiful Day?

    Do you have unsightly brown spots on your face, hands or body?

    SkinCeuticals (many of you use their skincare products) has developed a “pen” that uses cryotherapy or freezes age and sun spots as well as skin tags. It uses carbon dioxide which freezes the superficial part of the skin at -79 degrees C. The technique is similar to when family physicians and dermatologists use liquid nitrogen to treat skin cancers.

    The procedure takes just a few minutes. The area is cleansed then sprayed with CO2 to freeze the spot. There is very little if any temporary discomfort. Immediately after, Vitamin C is applied and so can makeup. Vitamin C and a sunscreen are encouraged and should be applied while healing.

    The lesion will get darker and possibly scab before it sheds. It can take 7-21 days to shed completely. Healthy pink skin or lightening of the dark spot will appear. Maturation of the skin then follows the normal skin cycle of 6 weeks.

    LA DOLCE VITA

    Summit Park in Blue Ash (the old airport) is a wonderful place to spend some time this fall. There are events, exercise classes, and places for kids to play. I enjoy the restaurants like Brown Dog Café and the Senate. Great to be outdoors before winter rears its head.

    Cellulite?
    Cellfina, www.cellfina.com, is the only FDA-cleared minimally invasive procedure clinically proven to improve the appearance of cellulite for at least three years. The best candidate has dimpling that is not caused by loose skin. The benefits are a long-lasting, single, in-office treatment that usually takes under an hour.
