Improve Your Neck Lines with Radiesse

The body’s natural aging process causes the skin to become thinner and less elastic. This goes not only for the skin on the face but also for the skin on the neck. So, if you’re noticing lines and wrinkles appearing on your neck, you’re not alone. But, with the help of the longstanding injectable Radiesse, it’s possible to safely and effectively eliminate neck lines. 

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is an injectable treatment that’s been FDA-approved since 2007. Its main ingredient is calcium hydroxylapatite or CaHA. CaHA provides immediate contouring after the treatment and lasting collagen and elastin production. Since the Radiesse formula stimulates the production of these essential proteins, it leads to tighter, stronger, and more elastic skin long after the initial injection.   Continue reading “Improve Your Neck Lines with Radiesse”

Using CoolSculpting to Get Rid of Love Handles

Are you feeling frustrated by love handles? Love handles refer to the excess fat that can accumulate at the sides of the waist; love handles may hang over the waistband of pants and become more visible when you wear tight clothing. 

Many people struggle with love handles despite being at their goal weight. Diet and exercise often aren’t effective for pockets of stubborn fat, including love handles. In these cases, CoolSculpting is an excellent option to slim down the waist and hips for a more toned physique. 

What is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved device to treat excess, stubborn fat in the flanks, thighs, abdomen, back, upper arms, under the buttocks, and around the breasts. The CoolSculpting device delivers controlled laser technology at precise levels to the treatment area. The cool laser targets the fat cells under the skin to freeze and eradicate them.

The Powerful Benefits of Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is the most advanced aesthetic treatment on the market. This innovative, minimally-invasive treatment targets the skin’s deep layers for a dramatic improvement to imperfections including skin laxity, deep wrinkles, scarring, sun damage, stretch marks, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, and more. Compared to other devices used today to improve the appearance of the skin, Morpheus8 provides more powerful results with less discomfort and recovery downtime.  

What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8, which is technically called Morpheus Fractionated Radiofrequency, is a skin rejuvenation procedure that combines microneedling with fractionated radiofrequency energy and uses subdermal adipose remodeling (SARD). The Morpheus8 device features a matrix of micropins that penetrates the dermis and heats up in a precise, controlled manner. This targets the deep skin tissue to not only stimulate collagen production, but also improve the appearance of the patient’s natural collagen. The result is contoured, rejuvenated skin with a more even tone and texture.  Continue reading “The Powerful Benefits of Morpheus8”
