Greetings!
 One of the most exciting features of my chosen field of cosmetic dermatology is its immediacy, the sense that it is still evolving and the importance of staying in the forefront. Witness the article that just appeared in the NEW YORK TIMES STYLE MAGAZINE the first weekend in March. The article discusses our proven approach to achieving a more youthful appearance--an office procedure they call the "liquid" facelift but that we have referred to for at least the past two years as a "mid-face" correction or the "new, new face." "They (the liquid facelifts) have become extremely popular not only because they don't involve surgery and are relatively less expensive," the author writes, "but also because they're based on a newer understanding of the way the face ages, which focuses on a loss of volume rather than a slackening of the skin." The New York plastic surgeon (Yan Trokel, MD) who developed a technique of mid-face correction he calls the "Y-lift," and who was interviewed for the article says: "Aging is a process of losing volume, not gravity. What we associate with youth is fullness, not tautness." We could not agree more. It's always gratifying to realize that we are still riding the crest of the wave. Thank you for coming along. Don't forget to follow us on Twitter and on Facebook or visit our website so you keep up with all of our latest superdeals as well as all the new advances in this rapidly changing field.

SPRINGTIME!
Spring has sprung, indeed, and sometimes our skin, like animals after a long hibernation, needs a wakeup call. Introducing our latest peel: The VI Peel.
This is a peel that will improve the tone, texture, and clarity of your
skin after only a few days of downtime. The
VI Peel reduces age spots and hyperpigmentation while softening lines and
wrinkles.
Your
skin will bloom like the beautiful wildflowers that will soon surround our
magic desert. Our regular price for this
effective treatment is $325 but we are offering it to our patients at the introductory
price of $280 Wildflowers and luminescent skin...your Spring will never be as glorious. Remember always to live, laugh, and love your life... JoAnn

IS BOTOX AN ANTI-DEPRESSANT?
|
LATEST RESEARCH SAYS: "YES!"
A recent study to be published in PSYCHOLOGICAL SCIENCE and conducted at the University of Wisconsin showed a subtle connection between facial expression and negative feelings. Patients who received BOTOX took a longer period of time to express anger or sadness, hence an improvement in depressive thoughts.
These results bear out the findings of several previously published studies.
Now you can not just look good, you can feel good as well.

RADIESSE
|
WE'RE (still) NUMBER ONE
We were just informed that the latest data from BioForm, manufacturers of RADIESSE, indicates we have maintained our position as the number one volume RADIESSE office in our three county area. It's very gratifying to realize that the Doc's strict standards of natural beauty, his skill with mid-face corrections, and his virtually pain-free procedures have resonated so completely with our patients. Thank you!

JUVEDERM WITH LIDOCAINE FDA APPROVED
|
Correction with unsurpassed comfort.

Juvederm, Allergan's proven hyaluronic acid wrinkle filler that is so perfect for lip corrections, has just been FDA approved to contain lidocaine. The Doc has already used Juvederm XC on several patients and is very pleased with the results.
Lidocaine is a numbing agent that when combined with Juvederm will provide unsurpassed comfort for lip and wrinkle augmentations. Combined with the comfortable nerve blocks the Doc already administers this will take lip corrections to a new level.
Call and ask about our introductory pricing.

| REFERRALS |
Our gift to you...
The highest compliment that can be paid to a physician or to a medical office is to have a patient refer a friend for a consultation, second opinion, or treatment. We always appreciate that and we know your friend will thank you.
To show our appreciation in a more concrete way, if you refer a patient who has a treatment we will extend to you a complimentary, no-downtime, effective Reveal Peel for your kindness.
