</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div> This year the FDA 's new labeling regulations for sunscreens will go into effect. Say goodbye to SPFs higher than 50, and forget looking for the words "water proof" and "sunblock" on the labels. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> "I think the goal is to make labeling of sunscreens easier to understand and, frankly, more honest," according to Amanda Bell, MD, owner and medical director of Plush Medical Spa in Dothan, Alabama. "There is no clear evidence that SPFs above 50 provide additional protection from sun damage."</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="181" src="http://blog.greenpeople.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/SPF1.jpg" width="400" /> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><a href="http://www.fda.gov/ucm/groups/fdagov-public/documents/image/ucm050542.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.fda.gov/ucm/groups/fdagov-public/documents/image/ucm050542.jpg" width="241" /></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> The words "broad spectrum" may now only be applied to sunscreens that contain both UVA and UVB protection. Ultraviolet-A (UVA) rays primarily cause aging, and UVB rays cause tans and burns. While sunburn is primarily caused by UVB rays, we now know that both UVB & UVA can cause cancer and premature skin aging. T</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">he effectiveness standard most of us associate with sunscreens - SPF or sun protection factor - measures only how well they block UVB rays, because scientists used to believe UVB rays acted alone in causing </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">skin cancer</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Beach and pool days are not the only time to think of sunscreens, and Dr. Bell recommends wearing sunscreen daily, applying a layer in the morning before any makeup or moisturizers. "Aging UVA rays penetrate glass and will bombard you through windows and in your car. Living in the South, we tend to get plenty of UV exposure without even trying." </span><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><div><a href="http://news.legalexaminer.com/uploadedimages/InjuryBoardcom_Content/Blogs/News_Blog/News/iStock_SunscreenSmall.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="140" src="http://news.legalexaminer.com/uploadedimages/InjuryBoardcom_Content/Blogs/News_Blog/News/iStock_SunscreenSmall.jpg" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> "The ultimate goal here is not cosmetic," says Dr. Bell. "We need to do all we can to drastically lower the incidence of melanoma." Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer and is the leading cause of death from skin disease. It is the most common cancer in 18-20 year old women, but with the appropriate protection, it is also very preventable.”<br />
To help protect your skin, the new FDA regulations on sunscreen labels include:</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; list-style-position: inside; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;"><li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Skin cancer/ Skin aging alert:</strong> SPF 2-14 will be labeled with a warning that reads: “Skin Cancer/Skin Aging Alert: Spending time in the sun increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin aging. This product has been shown only to help prevent sunburn, not skin cancer or early skin aging.”</li>
<li style="border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Water resistance claims: </strong>Sunscreen labels must tell how much time a user can expect to get the declared SPF level of protection while swimming or sweating. Two times will be permitted on labels: 40 minutes or 80 minutes.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>No false claims:</strong> Manufacturers cannot make claims that sunscreens are “water proof,” “sweat proof” or offer “instant protection,” nor can they identify their products as “sun blocks.”</li>
<li style="border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>SPF 50+: </strong>Sunscreens can no longer carry an SPF label greater than 50. There are no known benefits for SPF higher than 50.</li>
</ul><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Dr Bell recommends avoiding overexposure to the sun and following these tips to reduce your risk of skin cancer:</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; list-style-position: inside; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;"><li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Reapply sunscreen. </strong>Reapplication is necessary and should be done depending on SPF protection. If the SPF is a higher number, it means it can be used less frequently.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Moderation is key.</strong> Avoid sun exposure during its peak times, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and enjoy the sun in moderation.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Dress appropriately.</strong> “There’s nothing wrong with wearing a light, long-sleeve shirt or a wide-brimmed hat in the sun,” Keidan said.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>See a dermatologist.</strong> Self-examination of the skin is recommended for young adults as well as seeing a dermatologist annually.</li>

</b></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Last fall, the FDA approved this hyaluronic-acid filler, known as Belotero, which can be used to treat moderate-severe facial wrinkles and folds.<br />
Belotero has been used for years in Europe and Canada, and it is very similar to other hyaluronic fillers, such as Juvederm and Restylane. However, there are some key differences you should know about. Belotero come to us from Merz Aesthetics, the company behind the Radiesse filler and the botulinum toxin Xeomin, both also approved by the FDA for cosmetic use in the USA.</span><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"></div><h3 style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 21px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 4px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: purple;">#1. Belotero is for superficial wrinkles and folds.</span></span></h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.wansfordhealth.co.uk/images/boletero.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="192" src="http://www.wansfordhealth.co.uk/images/boletero.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The main difference between <strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Belotero</strong> and other products like Juvederm and Restylane, is that <strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Belotero</strong> is designed to help treat superficial lines and wrinkles that are closer to surface of the skin. This is important because other HA fillers, like Juvederm, Restylane, and Perlane, can produce a bluish hue under the skin if they are injected too superficially. This is called the Tyndall Effect, and can be a significant problem when inexperienced practitioners are doing the injections. The problem has supposedly been solved with <strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Belotero</strong>, but everyone should remember that the Tyndall Effect occurs very rarely in the hands of experienced injectors. </div><h3 style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 21px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 4px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: purple;">#2.

The treatment involves a liquid chemical formula (usually containing some sort of acid) applied to the skin, which causes the removal of the damaged outer layer of skin and leaves softer, smoother skin. These procedures take less than an hour to perform, usually with minimal discomfort during the treatment, and may require as little as a few days or up to several weeks of recovery time, depending on the strength of the peel.</span><br />
<div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">There are a variety of chemical peels offered today, which allows you and your skin care specialist to partner together to find the best formula for your specific needs. Come in for a free skin care consultation with our licensed estheticians at <a href="http://www.plushmedspa.com/" target="_blank">Plush Medical Spa</a>, and they can talk with you and evaluate your skin's individual needs. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Plush's list of the top five chemical peels, from the lightest to the deepest peel available:</span><br />
<div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">1) Alpha Hydroxy Acid Peels</span></b><br />
Alpha hydroxy acids, also known as AHAs, are one of the most popular ingredients in a mild chemical peel. <b>Glycolic and lactic acid</b> are the most common AHA used for this purpose. AHA peels rarely need any sort of anesthetic to perform, and the discomfort during and after the procedure is minimal. This peel is typically used to reduce the appearance of fine lines, smooth rough skin and produce a more even skin tone. </span></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB3JRC-xZjI7PGvuuMFv2KCbrRyoCzRX1zkyTm-c9OIfSlbMqZqqdV44eosIRLjrb5LStxn8hZTOvZRmD8KItmgoXcecgzNuF1NtP2sH8hhWJZlPrfaswyiC9nBDUpTOTHP5GBY4mGIrBx/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB3JRC-xZjI7PGvuuMFv2KCbrRyoCzRX1zkyTm-c9OIfSlbMqZqqdV44eosIRLjrb5LStxn8hZTOvZRmD8KItmgoXcecgzNuF1NtP2sH8hhWJZlPrfaswyiC9nBDUpTOTHP5GBY4mGIrBx/" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
Glycolic acid (extracted from sugar cane)<br />
Lactic acid (extracted from milk)<br />
Malic acid (extracted from pears and apples)<br />
Citric acid (extracted from oranges and lemons)<br />
Tartaric acid (extracted from grapes)<br />
<br />
Lighter chemical peels for acne do not require much recovery time, although it is normal for people to experience slight redness and irritation and may also experience some crusting which will eventually subside as the body adjusts to the treatment. The peeling is similar to sunburn. Most people can continue their normal activities. Make-up can be applied a few hours after the procedure. These lighter chemical peel treatments are usually repeated every six weeks and patients generally undergo five to eight light chemical peels to achieve optimal results.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">2) Beta Hydroxy Acid Peels</span></b><br />
The most common beta hydroxy acid used in chemical peels is <b>salicylic acid</b>. This substance is also frequently used in acne products, which is why salicylic chemical peels are often used to treat acne-prone skin. Salicylic acid is more potent than glycolic acid, so it provides a slightly deeper chemical peel with longer lasting results. Because beta hydroxy acid chemical peels are also considered mild resurfacing treatments, no anesthesia is needed and the recovery time after the procedure is relatively short. However, it may take more than one treatment session to achieve desired results, and the procedure will need to be repeated periodically to maintain softer, smoother skin.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><a href="http://www.obaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/obagi_blue_peel_radiance.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.obaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/obagi_blue_peel_radiance.jpg" width="106" /></a><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.plushmedspa.com/Obagi_Products.html" target="_blank">Obagi Medical</a> has created a new chemical peel called the <b><a href="http://obagi.com/patients/product-line/blue-peel-radiance" target="_blank">Blue Peel Radiance</a></b>. Often confused with Obagi's well-known Blue Peel (which is a TCA peel, see below), the Blue Peel Radiance can be used on any complexion and is </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">suitable for most skin types, except those with severe Rosacea</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">. Thos</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">e with blemish prone skin, acne scars, wrinkles, unwanted pigmentation, scars, large pores, and sun damage are the most ideal candidates. Blue Peel Radiance fades hyperpigmentation (sun spots) well for darker complexions. As with other peels, it </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">works by forcing dead skin cells up to the surface, then kick starting collagen production underneath. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Moreover, a mixture of peel ingredients such as salicylic, glycolic, and lactic acids work to clean out pores and stimulate cell renewal.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> We at <a href="http://www.plushmedspa.com/" target="_blank">Plush</a> love the Blue Peel Radiance and the glow it provides after just one peel. As with all light peels, there is almost no downtime and results improve with subsequent treatments. We highly recommend a series of 6 Blue Radiance peels followed the Obagi Nu-derm system with prescription-only tretinoin to maximize your skin transformation.</span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">3) Jessner's Peel</span></b><br />
Jessner's peel is actually a combination of ingredients mixed into a single formula. It is considered a light chemical peel that is slightly stronger than both the alpha and beta hydroxy formulas. Jessner's peel uses <b>lactic acid, salicylic acid and resorcinol</b>, which is also used in treating several skin conditions. It is applied to skin that is too damaged to respond well to an AHA peel, but does not require a medium to deep treatment. Jessner's peels are applied typically after the patient has used topical Retin-A cream (tretinoin) nightly for 2-3 weeks, and complete recovery after the treatment takes about a week.</span><br />
<div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>4) TCA Peels</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Medium chemical peels, usually trichloroacetic acid (TCA) chemical peels, provide more dramatic results than light chemical peels, and they don’t require as much extended recovery time as deep (phenol) peels. A medium chemical peel can be used to treat any area of the body and take only minutes to complete. Depending on the size of the area being treated, a medium chemical peel may take from 15 to 60 minutes to complete, though most treatments can be completed within 30 minutes. <b> </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><br />
</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><a href="http://mariaflorez.biz/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/chemical_peel163204656_std.192161749_std.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://mariaflorez.biz/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/chemical_peel163204656_std.192161749_std.jpg" width="219" /></a>TCA can be used in many concentrations, but it is most commonly used for medium-depth peeling. It is ideal for the removal of acne scars, and for removing shallow tattoos and age spots. It is also recommended for large pores, but not for deep furrows. It helps remove the layers of dead skin that can cause acne infection to get blocked and releases the impurities allowing the skin to heal with a much healthier look. TCA chemical peel also helps increase the blood flow and circulation, which in turn stimulates your skin cells allowing them to rejuvenate and build up collagen and elastic fibers which strengthen the skin.</div><div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> The treatment is somewhat painful and treated areas may be swollen and red. The skin will tighten and crust, and begin to peel after several days. You must NOT pick the loose skin! It is strongly advised to wear sunscreen daily in the months following a TCA chemical peel. The results of TCA chemical peels are usually less dramatic than and not as long-lasting as those of a phenol peel. More than one TCA chemical peel may be needed to achieve the desired result.<br />
<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">At <a href="http://www.plushmedspa.com/" target="_blank">Plush Medical Spa</a>, we use at 15% TCA solution applied in layers with a purple dye, called the Plush Purple Peel.</span><br />
<br />
</div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Obagi Blue peel & <a href="http://www.plushmedspa.com/plushpurplepeel.html" target="_blank">Plush Purple peel</a></b><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; text-align: -webkit-auto;">These chemical peels are TCA blended with a blue or purple dye to accurately determine where and how evenly the chemical has been applied. This chemical peel has the same benefits as any TCA chemical peel; however, it is often recommended as a treatment for skin discoloration. This peel is accompanied by home treatment with hydroquinone and tretinoin.</span> </div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">5) Phenol Peels</span></b><br />
Phenol is the substance of choice for deep chemical peels that provide the most dramatic results. In addition to treating skin imperfections, this type of chemical peel may be used to remove precancerous growths or completely diminish deep wrinkles. Because the formula works more deeply than other types of chemical peels, most phenol peels require an hour or two in the doctor's office and usually involve a local anesthesia during the procedure and pain medication afterward. Phenol peels can take up to a month to recover from completely. We do not perform phenol peel at Plush Medical Spa. Please contact your dermatologist if you have had other chemical peels and are interested in a phenol peel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>After the peel...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">After a superficial peel, there may be slight redness, but there are no long-term effects, other than slight peeling in some patients. Diligent sunscreen use is important after any chemical peel.<br />
<br />
After a deep peel, the skin develops an exterior crust, which lasts for about a week. During the initial healing period vigorously moisturizing the skin helps to minimize any dryness or tightness. The skin will initially have a reddish color that may take six months to fade away completely, but the average person can start wearing makeup and return to work and his or her social life in a couple of weeks.<br />
A deep peel can be a painful, emotionally difficult process to endure, but the end result is a remarkably smoother, relatively wrinkle- free skin that lasts for 15 years or more.</span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Lasting 14 days is an accomplishment all by itself but shellac does even more. Many women have noticed that their nails are stronger and healthier after using shellac. Not only does it not damage your nail but it can improve your nail health.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Our chemists invented a modern solution to the normal polish inconveniences that frustrate women,” says CND co-founder and style director Jan Arnold. How does Shellac get around the dry time? CND created a special UV lamp that accommodates hands and feet and cures the polish as you go. (The machines are completely washed and sterilized between customers.) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span></span><br />

Shellac paints on just like a regular polish using specially formulated base coat, two layers of color, and top coat. After each coat of polish is applied, you put your hand under the timed lamp while the other hand is being painted. As soon as the manicurist is done with your nails, you can dig into your purse for your keys without any concern of smudging or chipping. They are <b>100 percent dry at the end of your mani or pedi</b>. </span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So reach into that purse and grab your keys without worry!</span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://www.volasalon.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/shellac-nails_21.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-655" height="183" src="http://www.volasalon.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/shellac-nails_21-300x183.jpg" style="background-color: #eef0f5; border-bottom-color: rgb(206, 209, 218); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-color: initial; border-left-color: rgb(206, 209, 218); border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-color: rgb(206, 209, 218); border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1px; border-style: initial; border-top-color: rgb(206, 209, 218); border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; display: block; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: auto; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;" title="shellac-nails_21" width="300" /></a>Removing the polish is equally innovative.

"I'm very excited to be one of the first to offer this new neuromodulator in Alabama", says Dr. Bell. "In theory, Xeomin® is less likely to cause resistance or allergic reactions, and it's always good to have more options when treating patients." </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This now brings the number of neuromodulators approved for cosmetic use up to three (Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®).</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Dr. Bell goes on to explain that Xeomin® does not have an extra protein that the other two products have, making it potentially a great option for those who have developed some resistance to the other products over the years. When resistance develops, it is usually due to antibodies against these proteins.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> Like <a href="http://plushmedspa.blogspot.com/2010/10/botox-dysport.html" target="_blank">Botox and Dysport</a>, the other botulinum toxins offered at Plush, Xeomin was first approved for patients with neurological disorders, specifically cervical dystonia and blepharospasm.Widespread clinical use will lead to a better understanding of the practical differences between Xeomin vs. Botox, and Xeomin vs. Dysport. </span></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="clear: left; float: left; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> Like other preparations of botulinum toxin A, Xeomin must carry a black box warning regarding a rare risk for spreading outside of the injection site. If this occurs, life-threatening swallowing and breathing problems may result. However, these severe side effects have not been reported in patients receiving botulinum toxins in cosmetic doses and have only been reported in people receiving much larger doses, as might occur during the treatment of those with cerebral palsy or spasticity resulting from stroke.</span><br />

A well-shaped set of eyebrows can completely alter your look. Take you to the levels of chic and sophisticated from unkempt and primal. A different brow shape also means a different permanent expression, and a good shape implies a good permanent expression. Many people overlook the fundamentals and </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; line-height: 13px;">importance of well-groomed eyebrows and consequently </span></span><br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><b style="color: #741b47; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">FIND YOUR PERFECT BROW SHAPE</b></div><div style="display: inline !important; font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Eyebrows can change the entire look of your face, depending on the shape, width, color and length. The best guideline for do-it-yourself maintenance is to stick with the shape you were born with. Although eyebrow trends can range from thin to thick to nearly nonexistent, it’s best to keep these varying looks for the fashion runways.</span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: normal;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"></span></span></span><br />
<div style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> Using an eyebrow brush or spoolie (looks like the end of a mascara wand), brush eyebrows upward and out. Carefully trim any stray hairs with a scissor. Brush hairs back into place. </span></span></div><div style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> For shape, the eyebrows should start where the inner corner of your eye starts. Hold a pencil vertically against the nose to the inner corner of the eye. Where the pencil hits the eyebrow is where your brow should start. Tweeze any hairs that lay inside of that area, and also in between the brows.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.womendiary.net/wp-content/uploads/Eyebrow-Shape-on-face.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="188" src="http://www.womendiary.net/wp-content/uploads/Eyebrow-Shape-on-face.jpg" width="320" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> Next, determine the highest point of your arch. Using the pencil, hold it diagonally against your nostril and “connect” it to the outer edge of the iris, or the colored part of the eye. Where the pencil touches your brow is where the highest point of the arch should be. Pluck from the bottom edge to create your shape.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> Finally, use the same pencil trick again and hold it from your nostril to the outer edge of the eye. The point where the brow touches the pencil is where the brow should end.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> Remember to tweeze sparingly, and stop after a few hairs to inspect your work. A couple of hairs here and there can make a huge difference, and you want to make sure your brows are still even. Don’t tweeze from the bulk of the hair, which could result in uneven patches.</span></span></div><div style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"><a href="http://shop.janeiredale.com/includes/cms/images/janeiredale/products/large/11416.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://shop.janeiredale.com/includes/cms/images/janeiredale/products/large/11416.jpg" width="200" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><br />

For fair blondes, choose a color that is slightly darker than your natural color. If you are using an eyebrow pencil, draw light, feathery strokes in the direction of the hair. However, the preferred method is to use a powder and a small, stiff and slanted eyebrow brush.

font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">How is Massage beneficial?</span></b><br />
<div style="font-family: arial, san-serif; font-weight: normal;"></div><div style="font-family: arial, san-serif; font-weight: normal;"></div><div><div style="font-family: arial, san-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="clear: right; color: black; float: right; font-family: arial, san-serif; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTdKBmOpppYaN7W1JhEhJfZkvomHWl7U68wLoSAat1xMYXSlhNY" /></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> Therapeutic massage has been used for thousands of years in many different forms. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 16px;">Massage therapy not only addresses the physical needs of a person, but also their mental and emotional needs and wants in order to help the person feel relief from physical injuries, get rid of daily stress or help them maintain good health in general. Here is a brief list of the main benefits of massage:</span></span><br />
<div style="font-family: arial, san-serif; font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></b></span></div><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><b>1. Massage relieves pain.</b></span><br />
<div style="font-family: arial, san-serif;"></div><div style="font-family: arial, san-serif; font-weight: normal;"><b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"> Doctors, chiropractors, and physical therapists understand that one of the benefits of massage is the pain relief it can provide. In the hands of a skilled masseuse working under clinical conditions, someone suffering from chronic pain or certain types of injury can experience immediate, partial, or temporary relief. Check with your doctor if you have chronic pain or discomfort about benefits of massage. </span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, san-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444;"><b></b></span></span></span><br />
<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, san-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444;"><b><b>2. Massage eases tension.</b></b></span></span></span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, san-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444;"> Physical tension caused by standing at your job all day or carrying 20 bags of junk out of the basement can be relieved by getting a massage to relax those worn muscles and limbs. If you can’t afford a weekly massage, opt for a special spa day package after a demanding workout when you can splurge and get the works, including a full body massage. You’ll feel so good afterwards that you won’t put off cleaning the basement so long the next time. </span></span></span></div><br />

<b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"> Massage can shorten recovery time and breakdown adhesions in injured and overused muscles. Massage improves circulation and can speed removal of toxins and lactic acid deposits. If you play sports, chances are there will be times when you overdo it or perhaps pull a muscle that has not warmed up property. Consider getting a massage to ease the tension and soreness of limbs damaged by sports-related injuries. Check with the doctor and let the masseuse know before getting a massage if you have a muscle injury.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, san-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444;"><b></b></span></span></span><br />

Cortisol is a stress hormone that is detrimental to your health if chronically elevated. A whole-body massage can relax those stiff muscles that may be causing tension headaches. It can help to free your mind of stressful events or difficult emotions, at least temporarily. Having a massage puts the focus on you and the present, taking it from problems and the past or future. You can escape challenges and problems by languishing in the care of a trained masseuse whose firm hands will roll the tension right out of your body</span></span></span></div><br />

With feel-good endorphins into your system, massage creates a sense of well being that can make anyone feel better. It’s hard to stay in a bad mood when a professional masseuse is stroking your body in a way that releases natural substances from the brain that evoke a pleasurable response. Plus, just getting away from the hectic pace of everyday life and enjoying a personal indungence can give you a calmer, happier frame of mind.</span></div></div><div style="font-family: arial, san-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><br />

What is Nufree, and why is it so special?<br />
Nufree is an anti-microbial, wax-free, sugar-free, 100% botanical hair removal product that is gentle & extremely effective.<br />
Developed over 30 years ago to remove hair from a patient before plastic surgery, nothing is more effective & safe than Nufree. Nufree is the ” gold standard” in hair removal and is safe for removing hair from over 98% of the body.<br />
<br />
<div><div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></div><div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></div> Nufree is a thick liquid product that joins with hair oils, NOT the skin. Because Nufree is not a wax it never sticks to the skin, so clients do not experience as much pain, redness or swelling associated with traditional wax treatments. Just silky-smooth skin. Nufree actually uproots the entire bulb and hair shaft and does not break the hair off the way depilatories and waxes often do. Nufree is soft at room temperature, so no HOT wax required. We warm Nufree to make it easier to spread and more comfortable for you. Nufree is the only one antimicrobial, non-wax hair removal system in the world!<br />
<br />
<b>HAIR REMOVAL</b><br />
<a href="http://www.ponicsan.com/wp-content/gallery/waxing/waxing-bury1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="http://www.ponicsan.com/wp-content/gallery/waxing/waxing-bury1.jpg" width="200" /></a> Any part of the body can be treated with Nufree, including eyebrows, face, bikini area, legs, arms, back, abdomen and feet; and it was clinically developed for sensitive skin.<br />
Bikini hair removal, or pubic depilation, is the safe removal of body hair in and around the pubic area. Originally meant to prevent the pubic hair from being visible around the edges of a bikini or swimsuit, it now often includes areas covered by bikinis. At Plush, an extended bikini wax within the areas covered by a bikini is called a "Bikini Plus."A Brazilian is the complete removal of hair from the all non-mucosal areas, front to back. It is best to avoid bikini hair removal during your menstrual period, as the sensation of pain tends to be heightened. Ideally Nufree bikini hair removal should be done every three to four weeks, all year round. Hair will become noticeably thinner and will grow more slowly leading to less frequent treatments. As general rule of thumb hair needs to be a quarter-inch long if it’s fine and half-inch long if it’s coarse.

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">To avoid cross contamination while carrying out hair removal services, we use a new spatula each time we make contact with your skin. We never double-dip!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><b>FINIPIL</b></div><br />
After hair is removed, <b>Finipil </b>cream is applied to cool, soothe and protect the skin. Patented antibacterial and antimicrobial Finipil cream protects against ingrown hairs and bacteria. The certified formula destroys 99.99% of all bacteria like staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeruginosa and E.coli, as well as fungi-yeast like aspergillus niger, candida albicans. When used daily, it lengthens the time between hair removal treatments and helps to slow the hair regrowth.<br />
<br />
<ul><a href="http://www.thebodyperfect.com/v/vspfiles/photos/FINIPIL-1.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.thebodyperfect.com/v/vspfiles/photos/FINIPIL-1.gif" /></a>
<li><b>Finipil slows </b>the development of new hair cells when used in conjunction with Nufree.</li>
<li><b>Finipil cools</b> by dropping the temperature of the empty follicle, lessening swelling due to water retention, hot showers or aerobic workouts.</li>
<li><b>Finipil should be used daily</b> on damp skin after showering or bathing to activate it. This keeps the skin sanitary and the follicles clean and free of foreign matter.</li>
<li><b>Finipil protects against ingrowns</b> and rids the area of old ingrown hairs caused by waxing, shaving at home, and hard water.</li>
</ul><br />
<b>Stay Clear of Bikini Bumps!</b><br />
<ul><li><b>Exfoliate</b> LIGHTLY exfoliate skin before waxing. This helps rid the follicle of oil and debris. The waxing may bring this oil and debris to the surface, but now the skin is more vulnerable and can cause it to become irritated. </li>
<li><b>Apply some heat</b> by taking a warm, not hot shower or bath, or applying a warm compress right before waxing will open up the skin’s pores and soften the skin, allowing the hair follicles to come out easier. This not only helps with the pain factor, but helps prevent irritation.</li>
<li><b>Fight the bump</b>. Several days before waxing, start using Finipil to help keep bumps from appearing. Continue to apply product daily for at least 3 days after waxing. Hydrocortisone cream is another option that most people have in their cabinet which will help soothe irritation and any itchiness.</li>
<li><b>Avoid heat & moisture</b> after hair removal by wearing loose-fitting clothing, cotton underwear and staying cool for 48 hours. Microbes flourish in moist, warm spaces. Bacteria and the inflammation they cause in the empty hair follicle, are a major cause of the dreaded "red bumps." You can shower & swim as usual.</li>
<li><b>Stick with it.</b> Usually waxing bumps lessen over time as your skin adjusts if you continue to wax somewhat frequently.</li>

It builds a perfect color that lasts much longer than most self tanners, because it is actually your own tan! The unique ingredients in Tantasia work with your own cells and melanin to produce a tan that is yours alone. Jane Iredale Tantasia features a buildable, moisturising formula that suits all skin types, producing a tan that suits every skin tone. It contains wheat protein to provide skin with hydration and vegetable-sourced natural silicone to leave skin silky and smooth. The tan builds evenly and gradually with a light fragrance that ensures no after-smell. You’ll actually like the fresh citrus scent! </div><div> Apply Tantasia once a day for 3 days, and watch the color develop! When you have enough tan (does that ever happen?), enjoy your new color. Then simply touch up when you see the color fading.<br />

Over time, sagging or wrinkled skin is replaced with smoother, tighter skin; improved tone and texture; and an overall younger looking appearance.</span></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: black;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 19px;"></span></b></span></span><br />

Thermage was originally used to tighten facial skin, smooth wrinkles and improve facial contours without incisions or downtime. The procedure is often a good option for people who don't want a full facelift, and for those who worry that an injectable filler like Restylane, Juvederm or Radiesse won't have results lasting long enough.</span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> When applied to the face, Thermage can lift sagging eyebrows, increase the prominence of cheekbones, and redefine the jawline. Additionally, Thermage can tighten wrinkled facial skin, improve the appearance of double chins and turkey necks, stretched-out tummies, saggy knees, waving underarms, and the signs of aging on the hands.</span></span></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://rocol.com.co/uploaded_img/eeaec51bd28ff0fda3aab9bf5c7303fe.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://rocol.com.co/uploaded_img/eeaec51bd28ff0fda3aab9bf5c7303fe.jpg" width="112" /></a><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What is different about Thermage CPT? </span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://rocol.com.co/uploaded_img/eeaec51bd28ff0fda3aab9bf5c7303fe.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></a><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #777777; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;"> The new Thermage CPT System represents a leap forward in skin tightening and contouring technology.

The Thermage CPT is applied to your skin and you feel warmth. The experience is often described as a deep heating or mild pinching sensation, but the new vibrating hand piece has led to significantly less discomfort.</span></span></span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Thermage delivers radio frequency energy to heat collagen, a structural protein located in the deep layers of the skin. Thermage helps build and contract collagen, which in turn tightens the appearance of the skin's surface. During each pulse, the outer layer of the skin is cooled while the deeper layers of skin and fat are heated to induce collagen tightening. Each energy pulse takes two to seven seconds. The entire face may require 400 to 600 pulses, and the stomach area may require 400 pulses. The amount of pulses for other treatment areas varies.<br />
After the procedure, you can go right back to work or your regular routine with absolutely no downtime!</span></span></span></span></span></span></div></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

In fact, some women who have undergone body contouring around their love handles with Thermage have lost 1.5 inches of girth around their abdomen immediately after one treatment.The skin tightens during the initial process and continues to tighten for three to six months afterward. The procedure also stimulates your body's healing process, which produces more natural collagen over time. That means pictures are important, since over time we forget just how different we looked before Thernage.</span></div><div style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: normal;"><br />

The old Thermage energy distribution was different, the hand pieces and sizes of the tips have changed and vibration mechanisms have been added. Patient comfort is high, virtually painless, and results are consistently good to great. We are thrilled with what Thermage CPT has done for our patients. Thermage is the best non-surgical skin care device out there at this time. </div><div style="margin-top: 7px;"><br />

I think one of te most important factors is appropriate patient selection. If a patient has too much laxity that would be better addressed with a facelift then I will refer the patient to plastics. One of the interesting things I have noticed in our diverse patient populations is that Asian, mediterranean, and Latino skin types seem to be slam dunk consistently repeat great results.</div><div style="margin-top: 7px;"><br />

It absolutely works, but it isn't surgery so no one should expect the same results as with surgery. Anyone who expects dramatic skin tightening is going to be disappointed. People choose Thermage because they want skin tightening without the risks of surgery, without the downtime, and without anyone knowing they have had anything done. They also choose Thermage to postpone or prevent the need for surgery, or to maintain their surgical results.</div><div style="margin-top: 7px;">Thermage CPT is different from previous versions of Thermage. There is more cooling of the skin surface and more energy delivered with each pulse. More energy means a more effective treatment. There is also vibration with each pulse, and between the vibration and the increased cooling the treatment is quite comfortable. Patients do not need any pain medication and report that the treatments do not hurt. Thermage CPT gives a more comfortable, more effective treatment.</div><div style="margin-top: 7px;"><br />

Cold, wind, temperature changes, and central heating all cause damage. But with the right routine and the best tools you can prevent the dreaded flaky skin and chapped lips that characterize most people’s winter faces. Here are some tips on how to improve your skin this winter:<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Amp up your regimen!</span></div><div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><a href="http://www.lasikwilmington.com/images/obagi.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.lasikwilmington.com/images/obagi.jpg" /></a>If you are not already using a prescription skincare line, wintertime is the best time to start. At Plush, our Licensed Estheticians have training in all areas of skincare, including extended training in the Obagi Medical Skin Systems. Along with Dr Bell they can customize a medical-grade routine for you whether your focus is anti-aging (dark/age spots and wrinkles), acne, rosacea or anything in between. Make an appointment for a free skin care consultation at Plush, and we can answer all of your questions.</div><div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><a href="http://www.canadadrugsuperstore.com/products/42015.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.canadadrugsuperstore.com/products/42015.jpg" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span"><b></b>Winter is the right time to renew your skin, because we tend to get much less sun exposure in the winter months. This is the ideal time increase your usage of Retin-A (tretinoin) or up the concentration of your current tretinoin cream or gel. Dr Bell dispenses Retin-A micro at Plush. We offer a price that the chain drugstores can't beat and save you the trip to the pharmacy. </span></div><div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span"></span>The 1st 1-3 months on any retinoid is a challenge for most, with new skin production causing flaking of dead skin, and overuse in sensitive areas potentially causing tender redness. If irritation occurs, stop using it for a few days, then start back more conservatively, perhaps mixing your Retin-A with moisturizer. For those with sensitive skin, use Retin-A every other night, at the 0.04% concentration. Use it very sparingly around the eyes and mouth to avoid irritation. After this transition period is over, you will most likely be able to use Retin-A every day without difficulty. Retin-A can make the biggest anti-aging difference in your skin, more than any other product or regimen.</div><div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br />

</span></div><div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><br />
</div><b>Exfoliate & Renew</b><br />
<b></b>Flaky, dry skin is dead skin that should be removed to achieve a smooth appearance. Medical microdermabrasion and chemical peels are the best way to remove the outer epidermal layers, and winter is, once again, the best time to have these procedures. Removing excess epidermis is important for evening skin texture and tone as well as shrinking those pores! Sun protection (SPF) is very important after chemical peels and while using Retin-A because new skin is very vulnerable to developing hyperpigmentation (dark spots). You can't skip the SPF, even in the winter, if you want to maintain youthful skin.<br />

Moisturizing in the winter months is one of the best things you can do for your skin. It’s really important that you moisturize when the weather is cold to help keep your skin soft and chap-free. Applying body lotion after a bath will protect from loss of natural oils and keep your skin protected. Leave your moisturizer on your face longer than usual to keep the skin as soft and hydrated as possible.</div><div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15.6px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Protect your lips</strong><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.parfuma.com/image/10521" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.parfuma.com/image/10521" width="200" /></a></div>The skin on your lips is thinner than the skin on the rest of your face, so it's particularly susceptible to damage in the cold. Dry, chapped lips can be sore and look unsightly, so it’s important that you protect your lips whenever you go out. We recommend Jane Iredale Lip Drink to protect lips in the winter. Or even better, exfoliate (with brown suger!) then plump while moisturizing with Jane Iredale's double-ended Sugar & Butter pictured here! Awesome!</div><div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15.6px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Switch from bath to shower </strong><br />
Long hot baths may feel fantastic, but they aren’t good for your skin. Hot baths strip your skin of their natural oils leaving your skin extremely dry. Ideally the water should be luke-warm every time you bathe, though if you do prefer to have a hot bath, try and cut them down to two to three times a week rather than every day. If you just can’t give up your hot baths, try a bath cream that contains a deep moisturizer.</div><br />

RADIESSE wrinkle filler consists of smooth calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres that are suspended in a water-based gel carrier. Over time, as your own soft tissue replaces the gel carrier, and newly formed collagen provides the desired long-term effect. These unique advantages make RADIESSE filler treatments the ideal choice to fill moderate to severe wrinkles. This immediate and long lasting correction of facial wrinkles makes RADIESSE wrinkle filler the natural choice.</span></span></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0.6em;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.dermanetwork.org/images/gallery/radiesse-104-855.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.dermanetwork.org/images/gallery/radiesse-104-855.jpg" width="192" /></span></span></a></div><div style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Women or men who have facial wrinkles and folds common with aging and volume loss are candidates for Radiesse. Radiesse is much more cost-effective when you consider that it lasts on average twice the length of time as Juvederm or Restylane. In addition, there is more filler in the Radiesse syringe (1.5 mL of Radiesse vs 0.8 mL and 1.0 mL with Juvederm and Restylane respectively).</span></span></div><div style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Radiesse is gently injected into the skin in small amounts with a very fine needle. Its exclusive calcium-based microsphere technology contains tiny particles that form a scaffold around which the body is stimulated to produce new collagen. This unique response provides immediate, visible improvement of folds and wrinkles, while the body's own collagen naturally restores a fuller, more youthful appearance that keeps patients looking better even longer. Radiesse's tiny microspheres gradually break down into calcium and phosphate ions that are naturally taken up by the body over time.</span></span></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0.6em;"><div style="line-height: 24px;"><a href="http://www.idealmedicalspa.com/baimages/Radiesse-ba-large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="161" src="http://www.idealmedicalspa.com/baimages/Radiesse-ba-large.jpg" width="200" /></a><strong style="margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Radiesse</span></span></strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> is not recommended for use in enlarging/enhancing the lips. Dr. Bell usually prefers Juvederm or Restylane for lip rejuvenation. Since Radiesse has no anesthetic in the product Dr. Bell recommends that patients have a "dental block" before they receive an injection of Radiesse. She uses a technique that is similar to that used by dentists when giving "Novocaine" for dental work. This "block" is identical to that used before injecting Juvederm or Restylane, and using a block allows virtually pain-free placement of Radiesse. Dr. Bell provides this "dental block" at the time of treatment, and it is included in the price of a Radiesse injection. </span></span></div><div style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The results with Radiesse can be seen immediately. As with any filler treatment or injectable there may be some bruising for a few days. Makeup usually adequately covers most bruising and patients are able to go about their normal daily routine. While this bruising may be minor, patients do need to be aware of it and not schedule treatments within a week of important events.</span></span></div><div style="color: #514a49; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0.6em;"><a href="http://www.idealmedicalspa.com/baimages/Radiesse-ba-large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span></a></div><div style="color: #514a49; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0.6em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="clear: right; color: black; float: right; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We recommend that patients avoid a<span class="Apple-style-span">spirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (i.e. ibuprofen, Advil, naproxen), vitamin E, or St. John's Wort for 1-2 weeks prior to receiving any filler injectable treatment. This is because these medications can increase bruising. If your physician has prescribed any of these medications such as aspirin please consult with them before you stop.</span></span><br />

The areas that suffered that repeated, folding injury (i.e. the wrinkles) will then have time to heal and fill-in, so that even the forehead lines and crows feet visible even without expressive muscle movement can be improved from treatment with Botox. With treatments 3 times a year, many patients have seen even those "permanent" vertical frown lines between their brows, that were once visible at rest, completely disappear even when viewed under 5x magnification. </span></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span style="color: #4d4a4a; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

The skin of the forehead and the position and height of the eyebrows depend in part on the natural, baseline tone of the forehead muscles. When that slight tension is reduced, you may notice a small drop in the position of your eyebrows. Keeping injections higher in the frontalis muscles of the forehead and using fewer units are two keys for maintaining good eyebrow position after Botox or Dysport treatments. Strategic injection placement will also ensure that you get the eyebrow shape you desire and not the crazy "bat brow" that can occur when the physician does not adequately treat the lateral forehead muscles. Because of differences in diffusion of the drug between the two sides of the forehead, about 10% of patients at Plush that have their horizontal forehead lines treated will require a small (Free!) touch-up to even their brows at their 1 week follow-up appointment.</span></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span style="color: #4d4a4a; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The differences between Botox and Dysport are small. Dysport has a quicker onset of action in our experience, with patients seeing a decrease in muscle movement at 1-2 days versus 2-3 with Botox. Both drugs seem to last the same amount of time with the majority showing clinical improvement for 4 months. The units of Botox and Dysport are not equal, in fact it's takes about 3 units of Dysport to equal the clinical effect of 1 unit of Botox., but that isn't necessarily a reflection of potency. . For example, 1 unit of botox (actually called a Mouse Unit) is defined as the LD50 (the leathal dose for 50% treated) when injected intraperitoneally into a 18-22g mouse. The lethal dose for humans is many times greater than the doses used for cosmetic purposes. </span></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span style="color: #4d4a4a; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

Studies have yet to show clear evidence of this. Interestingly though, patients that have shown a developing resistance to Botox have been sucessfully subsequently treated with Dysport.</span></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span style="color: #4d4a4a; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> The Pink Clarisonic Pro is one of Plush Medical Spa's feature Breast Cancer Awareness items for October 2010.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> We at Plush are all using the Pro systems for at-home facial cleansing along with the Body Brush head (for the rest of our skin!) in the shower. We have nothing but praise for this system!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Even though this is an award-winning product and was named an Allure Magazine "Best of Beauty" in 2008, we had limited exposure to it until recently. Our receptionist, Renee was already using the Clarisonic. She recommended we give it a try, and we also had several clients ask about it. Dr. Bell contacted the company to find out more, and before we knew it we were ALL hooked!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Our massage therapist Deana was soon surprised to find increased skin turnover with some peeling after just a few days of using the Clarisonic at home. Our esthetician, Raychel explained to her that this was likely due to the increased absorption of her skin care products (i.e. her Obagi glycolic acid cleasner and Retin-A Micro cream) after using the Clarisonic. How exciting! We all have smoother, softer skin now, and we know what gifts we're giving our favorite people for Christmas!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> We are so impressed with the Clarisonic system that we have integrated it into our facial regimens at the spa.

A cousin of vitamin A, retinoids are available by prescription. The best-known retinoid in the USA is tretinoin, sold under the brand name Retin-A. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Retinoids are the fuel for skin regeneration. “They can reverse some of the signs of aging—fine lines, blotchy discoloration and enlarged pores,” says Dr. Lupo. Retinoids also promote the production of collagen (the skin’s essential support structure) and help the skin make more elastin (which gives skin its resilience), thereby making the skin look younger and fresher.<br />
Retin-A requires a doctor's prescription. Retinoids' milder siblings, retinols, which are available over the counter, can do all this to a lesser extent. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Dr. Bell prescribes and dispenses Retin-A and other tretinoin formulations to her patients at <a href="http://www.plushmedspa.com/" target="_blank">Plush</a>, depending on their skin type and needs.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">2) Topical Antioxidants </span></b></span><br />
Using a cream, serum or lotion that contains such antioxidants as vitamin C, green tea extract or ferulic acid can make your skin healthier. “Antioxidants really prevent aging by quenching free radicals, but they also decrease inflammation that can lead to wrinkles,” says Leslie Baumann, M.D., author of The Skin Type Solution. And if you apply them during the day, antioxidants can block damage from any UV light that gets through your sunscreen.</span></span><br />

<b> Exfoliating</b> your skin once or twice a week with a facial wash, scrub or<b> chemical peel </b>that contains <b>glycolic or lactic acid</b> (both alpha hydroxy acids) removes dead cells from the skin’s surface and allows new ones to emerge. “This gives the skin a smoother surface that reflects light better and looks more radiant,” Dr. Baumann says. Skip this step if you have severe acne or very sensitive skin because the friction from exfoliating can aggravate these conditions. Medical (machine-based) <b>microdermabrasion </b>is recommended at least twice a year to improve dullness, reduce pore size and skin texture.<br />
We suggest using Obagi cleansers with glycolic acid for daily use with the <a href="http://plushmedspa.blogspot.com/2010/10/october-is-breast-cancer-awareness.html" target="_blank">Clarisonic Pro system </a>for face and body.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">4) Hydration</span></b></span><br />
Use a quality moisturizer to keep your skin looking supple and youthful. Anytime you increase hydration to the skin, you camouflage fine lines, protect skin against environmental assaults, and you can maximize the penetration of whatever else you’re putting on your skin. If your skin is dry, look for a moisturizer that contains cholesterol, fatty acids and ceramides. It sounds counterintuitive, but “the more water there is in a moisturizer, the less moisturizing it is,” says Ellen Marmur, M.D, author of Simple Skin Beauty<br />
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">5) Botox and Fillers</span></span></b><br />
Our skin loses volume as we age and slows the rate at which is replaces itself. Repetitive folding of the skin from muscle movements lead to permanent wrinkles in already-thinned skin. These effects can be reversed with botulinum injections with either Dysport or Botox cosmetic. These drugs lessen muscle activity and therefore stop the repeated folding of the skin. The treated areas have a chance to heal, leading to a long-term wrinkle reduction benefit beyond the expected 4 month reprieve from dynamic wrinkles. Fillers like Radiesse, Restylane and Juvederm replace volume loss with an immediate improvement that lasts up to 2 years.<br />
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">6) Beauty Sleep</span></span></b><br />
Your mother was right: You do need your beauty rest, so try to get plenty of quality shut-eye every night. “It’s during sleep when your metabolic rate is decreased that the body initiates the repair process,” Dr. Lupo says. For your face’s sake, it’s best to sleep on your back. “If you sleep on your face, your facial skin will age more rapidly,” Dr. Lupo warns. “It’s like wrinkling a pair of pants—in this case, you’re mechanically wrinkling the skin by deforming the skin’s collagen and impeding circulation to the skin.” So roll over if you’re a belly- or side-sleeper.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">7) Omega-3 Fatty Acids</span></b></span></span></span><br />
<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">To make your skin healthier and more youthful, consider having salmon for dinner tonight. “Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish, walnuts, canola oil, flax and supplements, can decrease inflammation in the skin,” explains Lisa Donofrio, M.D., professor of dermatology at Yale University School of Medicine. This is significant because chronic, low-grade inflammation can lead to loss of collagen and elastin, which, in turn, causes wrinkles and sagging of the skin.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">8) Sun Protection</span></b></span><br />
It’s never too late—in the season, or in your life— to start protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. Use sunscreen every day and wear sunglasses and a broad-brimmed hat whenever possible. “The single thing that ages the skin more than anything else is ultraviolet light, which damages DNA and breaks down collagen [the fibers that keep skin firm],” explains Mary P. Lupo, M.D., a dermatology professor at Tulane University in New Orleans. “The way I see it is: You can’t reverse a freight train until you first stop it.” Once you start protecting your skin you can reverse the damage that’s occurred.</span></span><br />
