  • Colon Cancer Screening, Botox Day Tomorrow!

    Mused while Watching Cleveland Cavaliers Win NBA Championship!

     

    Botox Day is tomorrow, Tuesday June 21 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.

     

    Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the U.S.  The government backed U.S. Preventive Services Task Force now has updated recommendations for cancer screening.  This is predominantly directed at those between the ages of 50 to 75.

     

    (Did You Know?   One in three adults isn’t getting tested for colon cancer the way they should.)

     

    Previously there were three options:  colonoscopy, either of two stool analyses known as fecal immunochemical testing or high-sensitivity fecal occult blood testing or flexible sigmoidoscopy combined with fecal occult blood test.  Now the task force has added CT colonography, which uses a low-dose radiation CT scan to see the inside of the colon.

    Swimsuit season is here and Nichole wants me to remind everyone that she does waxing.  Add that to a new swimsuit and our sunscreen special and you’ll be ready for the sun, sun, sun.  Also she does relaxing facials that don’t require being off any skin care products.
