BRAVA Breast Enhancement System
Get Bigger Breasts by Christmas
 
 
BRAVA Breast Enhancement system will increase your breast size approximately one cup size (100ml each breast) without surgery, in a privacy of your own home. BRAVA System is made up of two semi rigid domes and a self-regulating microprocessor that creates and regulates a slight vacuum within the domes. The system is held in place with a sports-bra. The gentle tension stimulates the breast tissue to grow and increase the overall breast size.
 
Clinical studies have shown that wearing the system 10 hours per day for ten weeks will increase the breast size approximately one cup size. The system can be worn longer than ten weeks with continued increased breast tissue growth.

The FDA clinical trials on Brave Breast Enhancement were conducted between 1998 and 2001. Approximately 200 women between ages 18 and 50 years of age participated in the study. The results showed that women who consistently wore the Brava system for ten weeks grew an average of 100 CC, (approximately one cup size).
All participants were satisfied with the results and felt that their breasts were lifted and enlarged. Studies, including MRI scans, were preformed on the participants that showed they had undergone increased breast tissue growth and the breast enlargement was not due to temporary swelling.

De-Age Your Hands
Hand Rejuvenation 
 
Radiesse Dermal Filler is a solution to replacing the cushioning lost as hands age. The procedure has become popular across the country and the globe.
 
Frequently the focus of cosmetic improvement is the face.
Yet, one of the most age-telling body features is our hands. As we age, our hands lose firmness and plumpness and begin to look bony and fragile...
Combating the aging hand syndrome takes more than hand cream (though that simple step does make a difference). The latest technology has given us a set of procedures that will have similar effects as those we have been able to accomplish for the face.
 
Complete Hand Rejuvenation is a combination process which includes dermal filler Radiesse. Patients whose hands are pigmented with sun or "age" spots are treated with the laser or IPL (photorejuvenation) to remove brown spots.
 
 

hands before and after

 

Radiesse injections immediately re-plump and replenish volume to the back of the hands to provide a supple and youthful appearance instantly. Placed beneath the skin, Radiesse raises the skin level so that tendons, joints and veins lose their prominence. Radiesse provides instant and durable long lasting results.
Because Radiesse provides a scaffolding for collagen-building, the body's own collagen interweaving into this structure keeps the skin feeling softly natural and smooth.

The average patient requires 1 syringe per hand. Large hands or those with significant fat loss may require 1.5 per hand. Procedure is quick and essentially painless.

Liquid FaceLift
Refresh Your Look 

Your face is the one part of your body that you want to be plump and contoured.  As we age our skin doesn't just wrinkle, the tissues beneath the skin lose volume causing the skin to sag and fold like an overripe grape.  Many men and women who think they may need facial surgery are surprised to find a better treatment called a Liquid FaceLift
 
A  Liquid FaceLift is accomplished using the injectable filler Radiesse  in combination with Juvederm and Restylane.  Radiesse will augment diminished, sunken and thinning facial features like the cheeks,  cheek bones, temples, nasolabial folds, chin, jowles and skin depressions around the mouth.  As Radiesse  is embedded within the structures of your facial tissue, your body will naturally begin to build new collagen deposits around the filler further enhancing and firming the texture of your skin.
 
Juvederm will plump up the lips and erase lines and wrinkles around the mouth. Restylane will fill in the undereye hollows and diminish the dark circles.
 
The use of Botox in addition to dermal fillers will make for better, longer-lasting results. Botox will be used to decrease lines of the forehead, eye area, and even the mouth and chin.  It will raise up the depressed mouth corners. Botox is also ideal for lifting the brows.

You will enjoy plumper, ample facial features and look years younger because the skin will lay smooth and unwrinkled over soft, full contours. 

             Liquid FaceLift takes  an hour with local anesthesia only,
 and you'll be back on the social scene the same day!

Superfoods: Kale
 
Get your Greens
 
  • Kale a leafy green cruciferous vegetable from a family of broccoli, collards, and Brussels sprouts.
  • Kale has been shown to reduce the risk of many cancers, especially one of the most deadly forms, colon cancer.
  • Kale is especially abundant in two carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin, both of which act like sunglass filters and help prevent damage to the eyes from excessive exposure to ultraviolet light. It decreases the risk of cataracts by 22% .
  • Kale is a very good source of dietary fiber, calcium and potassium, as well as being particularly rich in vitamins A, C, and B6. 1 cup of kale has only 30 calories.
  • Kale provides over 200% of the daily recommended intake of vitamin A, an important nutrient for vision.
  • Kale is also especially noteworthy for its high content of vitamin K, a vitamin that plays an important role in blood clotting and maintaining healthy bones.
  • To get the most health benefit, be sure to choose organically grown kale, and steam lightly. This method of cooking retains the most nutrients, and also maximizes their availability within the body.

Prevent Andropause
 
Importance of checking Testosterone in Men
 
By the age of 80, a man's testosterone level may only be 20% of what it was in his youth. This decline in testosterone occurs gradually, starting as early as his mid-30s, and can result in an increased risk of life-threatening illnesses such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
testosterone
Testosterone deficiency can also lead to a number of disturbing symptoms, including loss of stamina and lean muscle mass, reduced libido, anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline. Known as the andropause, these changes are the male equivalent of female menopause. Unlike menopause, however, the drop in testosterone is so gradual that the symptoms of andropause appear over a longer period of time and are often ignored for a while or are attributed to "getting older."

The good news is that many symptoms of testosterone deficiency can be reversed by restoring youthful testosterone levels. Restoring testosterone  levels offers men a wealth of health benefits, including benefits for heart health, body composition, mood, and memory.
We prescribe only Bioidentical Testosterone which has not been found to have adverse effects on the healthy prostate gland-in fact, it may help improve prostate symptoms in men with low-normal testosterone levels. Testosterone therapy is contraindicated in men with prostate cancer.
 
Annual blood testing can help decide if  testosterone therapy is right for you.
