While we have never had any doubts that cosmetic procedures can improve quality of life (we only have to look at our patients and how happy they are), up until recently there have been very few studies done on the subject.
However, there have been, in recent years, a number of studies that have evaluated the effects of aesthetic procedures on a patient’s quality of life. The studies have, as a whole, reaffirmed the life-enhancing benefits of tampa cosmetic surgery.
But how do we define “quality of life”?
To establish whether or not someone’s quality of life has improved, you have to look […]
You may have heard of the newest injectable, Kybella, a revolutionary new treatment for “double chins.” In the past, if you wanted to do something about your double chin, the only option was a surgical procedure. However, the FDA has just recently approved Kybella for melting away that stubborn double chin fat.
So how does it work?
Well, first of all, Kybella doesn’t melt away fat the way that you melt a stick of butter in the microwave. A better visualization would be bursting a water balloon with acid. The injectable disrupts the fat cell membrane, destroying it, and the fat cell […]

Acne. It’s one of those unfortunate side effects of being a teenager. However, we typically think that when we get older it will go away. Think again. Studies have shown that acne is the most common skin concern in the U.S., affecting 40-50 MILLION adults. In fact, research shows that 35% of women in their 30s, 26%of women in their 40s an 15% age 50+ battle breakouts. So know that if this is you, you aren’t alone!
Here are three common triggers of adult acne…and skin care treatments that can help!
Hormonal changes.
Whenever your body experiences a spike in hormones like testosterone, […]
We’re been very excited about the amazing new FDA-approved injectable Kybella, which is designed to melt that stubborn double chin. Fat under the chin is a normal part of aging; unfortunately it’s something that many people are self-conscious about. Up until now getting rid of it requires a surgical procedure. Now, for the first time, there is a simple injectable treatment that can rid you of that stubborn fat for good.
However, with any new treatment we know that some people have trepidations. They’re concerned about side effects and discomfort that they may experience during the procedure.
So the big question on […]
There is no such thing as a fountain of youth, so try as we might to avoid it, we are all going to age eventually. Even the most advanced anti-aging serums can’t stop it. However, there’s a possibility that your behavior is causing you to age more rapidly. Could one of these things be causing YOU to age?
Sun exposure.
While you should certainly make a habit of wearing sunscreen daily, regardless of where you live, there is no denying that because we live in Florida we are outside and in the sun more than residents in other parts of the country. […]
Since tomorrow is Halloween, talking about our Vampire Facial seems entirely appropriate. Don’t worry, though, there will be no blood sucking involved with this treatment! Well, not exactly, anyway…
The Vampire Facial, also known as a PRP Facial, uses your own blood to prepare a product that can be injected into specific areas of the skin, helping your tissue to heal and grow new cells. It promotes new collagen to grow, regenerates tissue and helps to naturally smooth and tighten the skin. After this treatment you will notice visibly softer wrinkles and smoother skin texture.
How does it work?
A small amount of blood […]
IPL, which stands for Intense Pulsed Light, is used to to lighten and remove brown spots, redness, age spots, broken blood vessels, and rosacea from the face, neck, chest, hands and other areas of the body. They can also reduce hyper-pigmentation and the appearance of wrinkles. IPL photo facials also have the lesser effect of improving skin texture by stimulating collagen.
Even though this treatment is noninvasive so convenient that it could be performed over your lunch hour, you will notice a marked difference in your skin over time. The skin will actually continue to improve for weeks after the treatment.
How is this treatment […]
