New Year Beauty Resolution: Clear + Beautiful Skin

New Year Beauty Resolution: Clear + Beautiful Skin

The new year has officially started, and that means new resolutions!

One of the most common goals we’ve already seen for 2020 is clear, youthful and radiant skin.

There have been countless different beauty and skincare trends in the last decade, and we should definitely be leaving some of them there.

From charcoal and red-light masks to CBD and elaborate 15-step routines, we’ve learned that not everything will work on everyone’s skin (or anybody’s for that matter), and a lot of it can be a waste of money and energy.

New Year Resolution Clear & Beautiful Skin

That being said, it’s time to leave all of that in 2019.

It’s a new year, and we’re basically living in the future: technology changes everything in our lives, no less our skincare.

So, isn’t it about time we have a solution for our beauty goals that doesn’t require an endless period of trial-and-error with skincare products, needles or surgery?

2020 has entered the chat, and she says yes!

One of the most innovative procedures to come our way is called Clear + Brilliant.

Essentially, the treatment improves the signs and effects that time and environment can have on your skin, while also preventing visible signs of aging.

Let’s face it: our skin changes over time. Fine lines, enlarged pores and uneven tone and texture can be inevitable, especially as we age.

Even if you take good care of your skin with a consistent, preventative routine with top-notch products, unfortunately nobody can look like they’re in their 20s forever.

Luckily, we’ve discovered and proven new ways to fix what we don’t like and also prevent them from coming.

Clear + Brilliant could be the answer to your New Year’s resolution, but you probably have some questions:

What is Clear + Brilliant and what does it do?

The Clear + Brilliant treatment is a gentle laser procedure that helps to better overall complexion by improving skin tone, texture, uneven pigmentation and the appearance of fine lines and pores, while also treating and preventing signs of aging.

Using fractional laser technology, the treatment works by targeting the upper layers of the skin and replacing damaged cells with healthy tissue.

This essentially triggers the skin’s natural healing process, leaving you with younger looking, radiant skin.

The procedure does not require any surgery or injections, and is 100% non-invasive.

Clear and Brilliant Laser

What should I expect?

A typical Clear + Brilliant treatment begins with a consultation with a licensed professional to establish that the treatment is right for you and your skin concerns.

Before the treatment, your licensed professional may apply a numbing cream to your face to eliminate any possibility of discomfort.

The procedure then consists of guiding a laser hand piece across the skin and target areas, and takes about 20-30 minutes from start to finish.

You will see both immediate and progressive results over the course of a week or two.

Is Clear + Brilliant painful?

The treatment is non-invasive, quick and gentle. Patients have reported that the procedure is minimally painful, with a slightly hot and/or prickly feeling that is easily alleviated by applying ice to the skin.

At most, minor swelling or redness may occur for a few hours following the treatment.

How much does Clear + Brilliant laser treatment cost?

The average cost of a single Clear + Brilliant treatment is around $450, but can vary depending on location, provider and prior state of your skin.

Is Clear + Brilliant worth it?

A high majority of patients say that Clear + Brilliant is worth it due to the results, minimal pain, quickness and downtime of the procedure as compared to other laser treatments.

Patients report that after just one treatment they noticed softer, younger looking skin, improved tone and a radiant glow, and no need to take time off from work.

Clear + Brilliant Before and After:

clear and brilliant before and after

How often should I get the Clear + Brilliant treatment?

Results can most likely be seen after just one session, however 4-6 treatments are recommended in order to notice visible improvements and achieve the look that you want. It is also recommended to separate each treatment by a month for best results, depending on your skin condition and care regimen.

Can I exercise after my Clear + Brilliant treatment?

A light walk is OK following treatment; however, it would be best to avoid strenuous exercise as is it recommended to avoid perspiring and sweating for at least 24 hours after the procedure. Additionally, you should avoid any sun exposure due to heightened sensitivity.

What is the downtime for Clear + Brilliant?

There is little to no downtime for the Clear + Brilliant laser treatment.

Patients are able to get the procedure while on lunch break on a work day and return back looking and feeling normal.

At most, some slight redness or heat may occur on the face immediately after the procedure, but can be alleviated with ice or a cold pack.

The aftercare is simple, and your doctor may advise using gentle and minimal products on your face while avoiding sunlight.

 

Achieve your New Year’s resolution of finally having the radiant complexion you’ve always dreamed of without surgery, needles or wasting money on trendy products that don’t show results.

7 Things To Know About Under Eye Filler

Posted on

Under eye filler treatment

Let’s face it: you’re tired of always looking tired.

No matter how much sleep you get at night, it seems like those dark circles will never go away.

You’ve tried countless creams, serums and concealers and none of them ever do what they say they will.

 

As we age, the area under our eyes (also known as the tear trough) loses volume which causes hollows, wrinkles, bags and dark under eye circles.

Dermal fillers for the under eye are used to restore volume, fill in wrinkles, and decrease the appearance of dark circles for more youthful looking eyes. These dermal fillers can also create a smoother facial contour in the areas under the eyes that have a hollow appearance.

 

If you lack volume under the eyes and you’re tired of spending money on eye products that don’t work, then under eye fillers may be the solution for you — but before you book your appointment, here are seven things you should know about the under eye filler treatment:

You’ll see the results right away

You will notice a difference in your under eye area immediately after your treatment. Patients experience instant satisfaction as any problem areas under the eyes will be improved with a natural-looking result.

Under Eye Filler Treatment Is Not Permanent

The results from the under eye filler treatment can last around 1-2 years, but ultimately the absorption varies with each individual. You can always get them touched up in the future as well.

Tear Trough Filler Treatments Are Off-Label

Although the dermal fillers aren’t FDA approved for treatments under the eyes, that doesn’t mean that it’s unsafe.

As other areas of the face have been approved for filler treatments (such as the lips and cheeks), the FDA studies have just not yet been conducted for the under eye area.

Under eye filler treatments are done in practice all over the world.

It is important to choose an experienced, certified medical professional to perform the tear trough filler procedure for optimal results.

Hyaluronic Acid Fillers Are Preferred

Juvederm and Restylane are common types of hyaluronic acid fillers used for the treatment of under eye hollowness.

Hyaluronic acid fillers are most popularly used because they look the most natural.

Under eye treatments with Juvderm or Restylane can be reversed in the case you don’t like the results or want to adjust the treatment.

Reversal can be done by using Hyaluronidase, an enzyme naturally found in the body, which essentially dissolves the filler.

Pain Is Minimal

The treatment area will be numbed, and the pain will likely be mild to moderate. Most patients would describe the experience as just a small pinch.

There’s Very Little Downtime

There’s a chance that you may experience some slight bruising afterwards, but it’s nothing you can’t cover up with some concealer in the meantime.

You should try to avoid drinking alcohol or taking any blood thinners at least a few days before your treatment, as this may cause some bruising.

There’s also no need to take off work or revolve your schedule around the appointment either, as it is a very quick procedure and you can go about your day afterwards.

The Cost Of Under Eye Filler Treatments

Depending on your facial contours, how much volume has been lost under your eyes and how many syringes of filler you’ll need, the treatment can cost anywhere from $800 to over $2,000.

Schedule a consultation to find out what treatment plan is recommended for you and what that will cost.

 

Recipients of the treatment instantly notice a difference in their under eyes and are pleased with the results. Stop breaking the bank on countless skincare and makeup products that don’t work, and take the leap into a longer-lasting, natural-looking approach to brighter, more youthful eyes.

If you are searching for an under eye filler treatment near me and you live in the Bucks County, PA area, request your free consultation at Healthy Solutions Medspa online or by contacting our office at (267) 332-5567.

Dermal Fillers: Types of Fillers and Tips To Follow Before Your Treatment:

Whether you want to look years younger or enhance your features, a dermal filler treatment is a great option to achieve your desired look without surgery.

In fact, the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reports that dermal filler treatments were a runner-up for the most popular non-surgical procedures last year, right after Botulinum Toxin (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin).

Most areas of the face can be treated with Dermal fillers.

dermal filler treatment areas

There are many different types of dermal fillers on the market to choose from:

1. Hyaluronic Acid (HA)

Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus, Juvederm Volbella, Juvederm Vollure, Juvederm Voluma, Perlane, Restylane, Restylane Silk, Restylane Refyne, Restylane Defyne Boletero Balance.

Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring substance found in your skin that helps it stay hydrated and plump.

These temporary dermal fillers are FDA approved for treatment on the nasolabial folds (smile lines), lips, vertical lip lines, marionette lines and cheek areas.

HA fillers last between 6 months to 2 years before they are absorbed by the body naturally.

2. Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA)

Radiesse

This filler is FDA approved for the treatment of nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, cheeks and other facial contours.

CaHA is also a naturally occurring substance found in the body, specifically in our bones.

These fillers typically last longer than HA fillers, about 12 months.

3. Poly-L-lactic Acid

Sculptra

This FDA approved filler consists of a biodegradable synthetic substance.

Sculptra stimulates collagen and helps your skin rebuild it naturally.
Sculptra lasts up to 2 years and is used to fill in laugh lines, plump up thin lips, and treat deep nasolabial folds.

4. Polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA)

Bellafill

Bellafil is a semi-permanent FDA approved dermal filler made of a synthetic, biocompatible substance.

This filler lasts up to 5 years and can be used for deep wrinkles, nasolabial folds, increase volume in the lips and to fill out pitted acne scars.

Type of dermal fillers

How do you select the right dermal filler? It’s best to schedule a consultation with a reputable Board Certified Doctor or Registered Nurse.

Tips To Follow Before & After Your Dermal Filler Treatment

Before your dermal treatment, you should avoid:

 

● Blood thinners and pain relievers (Aspirin, Motrin, Ibuprofen, Aleve, etc.)
● Supplements (St. John’s Wort, Gingko biloba, primrose oil, garlic, ginseng, and Vitamin E)
● Any type of hair-removal process on the treatment area (waxing, bleaching, tweezing, etc.) at least 3 days before your treatment
● Alcoholic beverages for at least 24 hours before your treatment

 

If you suffer from or have a history of cold sores, let your doctor know before your procedure as you should be aware that any needle punctures could contribute to a risk of another breakout or eruption of cold sores, reactivating the herpes virus.

 

If this concerns you, your doctor can prescribe antiviral medication to avoid or clear up any breakouts before your treatment.

 

Do not use dermal fillers if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or allergic to any ingredients.

 

You should arrive at the office with a clean, makeup-free face.

dermal fillers

Following Your Dermal Filler Procedure

After your dermal treatment, you should avoid:

● Wearing makeup for at least 12 hours
● Using skincare products for at least 24 hours
● Strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours
● Alcoholic beverages for at least 24 hours
● Extensive sun, heat or UV exposure for at least 24 hours
● Extremely cold or hot temperatures for at least 48 hours
● Touching or massaging the treated area
● Smoking and/or smoke exposure
● Any dental procedures for at least 2 weeks

 

To minimize swelling and bruising, apply ice on the treated area and take Arnica or Bromelain (eating fresh pineapple may help as well).

 

Tell your doctor if you are planning any laser treatments, chemical peels, or other procedures after treatment, or if you are using Aspirin, Ibuprofen, or other blood thinners as this may increase bleeding or bruising on the treated area.

 

If you have a big event coming up, it is recommended that you plan your treatment at least 3 weeks in advance for optimal healing and results.

Reverse Sun Damaged Skin with These 4 Med Spa Treatments

Posted on

Bucks County Med Spa

You’ve had your fun in the sun, and now your skin is paying for it.

Those fabulous afternoons lounging poolside with a mojito in hand, and long weekends at the beach are par for the course when it comes to enjoying summer. Unfortunately, it can wreak havoc on your skin.

Regardless of the amount of sunscreen you apply to your skin or how often you sport that Riviera-style beach hat, the sun makes its way through to your precious skin – leaving sunspots, blotches, and wrinkles! But there’s no need to wallow in a world of regret. Your time spent sinning in the sun can be fixed!

Here are 4 Med Spa treatments to help you reverse sun damage:

Microneedling:

Hold up! Did someone say needle? We did. But they are incy wincy, tiny little needles. We’re talking microscopic – as Taylor Swift says, “You need to calm down!”

Microneedling is a method used to rejuvenate the skin by generating collagen and skin tissue. The minimally invasive procedure involves using multiple tiny, sterile needles to brush over the skin to create controlled “micro-injuries.” The skin’s natural healing process prompts the derma, a deeper layer of skin, to rebuild. The increased collagen can reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and even out your skin tone – leaving you with smoother, younger-looking skin. Another bonus: it also lessens the appearance of hyperpigmentation, acne scars, stretch marks, and sun damage.

Patients may experience a few days of redness following treatment, but ultimately settle into silky-soft skin that glows!

VI Peel: It’s time to turn over a new leaf! VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that offers dramatic results with no preparation and minimal downtime. The gentle, pain-free treatment helps to soften fine lines and wrinkles, reverse sun damage, reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and scarring while improving the overall quality, tone and texture of your skin.

The VI Peel at Healthy Solutions MedSpa includes a specifically formulated post peel kit which is essential for your treatment’s success, ensuring optimal and lasting results. VI Peel’s blend of powerful ingredients is suitable for all skin types, including darker skin tones. It is a quick treatment designed to achieve more effective results.

Patients can expect to peel for 2-3 days before revealing a new layer of skin that appears flawless and youthful.

Photofacial:

Also called an IPL (intense pulse light). It’s not a Rave but seeing how amazing your skin looks over the next week may prompt you to break out in a celebratory dance. Before you do, keep in mind this is not an immediate treatment, and depending on how much sun damage you have, multiple treatments may be needed.

Some patients opt for a Photofacial instead of a chemical peel because there is less visible downtime and no peeling! After a Photofacial, your face will appear pink or red. If you have dark spots, they will appear darker- this can last for a few weeks but will lessen with each day. The Photofacial is also great to spot treat sun damage as the device can target specific sunspots more aggressively during treatment.

The Photofacial, also called an IPL (intense pulse light) is a 30-minute procedure in which intense pulses of light are used to penetrate deep into the skin…unce unce unce baby! This revolutionary facial treatment uses a broad-spectrum light source called flashlight technology. The intense pulsed light warms up the skin and uses heat to activate the body’s natural healing process.

You can use IPL on other parts of the body, not just on your face. Patients often get treatment to correct sun damage on areas such as chest, back, or hands. This type of light therapy is also used to treat age spots, broken blood vessels on your face, and rosacea.

Hydrafacial:
When it comes to gorgeous skin, some of us…want it now! The Hydrafacial offers instantaneous results with absolutely no downtime. Hydrafacial is a hydradermabrasion treatment that cleanses the skin, exfoliates dead cells, extracts dirt and bacteria, hydrates, and protects the skin with antioxidants in one simple 30-minute treatment. As if it wasn’t already perfect, a Hydrafacial is an excellent microdermabrasion treatment for oily skin, acne, sun damage, and to treat wrinkles and fine lines.

Plus, by adding specific Boosters to the hydrafacial, you can effectively target problem areas. BRITENOL BOOST Britenol™ is specially formulated to correct dark spots and sun-damaged areas. Britenol™ is clinically proven to leave skin glowing with a more even complexion. Key ingredients: Alpha-Arbutin is derived from bearberry extract to brighten the appearance of dark spots. Vitamin C exhibits antioxidant properties and gives skin added brightness.

Whatever your skin needs are you can’t go wrong with any of the mentioned treatments. Call (267) 332-5567 today to schedule a consultation with our Aesthetician or to schedule an appointment.

As September comes to an end, our memories of summer begin to fade, hopefully, so will the sun damage to our skin. Here’s to heading into Autumn with gorgeous, glowing skin – and endless pumpkin spice lattes!

The Coolest Way To Get Rid of Unwanted Body Fat With Coolsculpting

Posted on

 

Healthy Solutions Medspa

In a world of hot yoga, Whole30, Ultimate Crossfit, and no added sugar allowed, how is it we still have fat on our bodies?

Truth be told, no matter how much junk you cut from your diet or how may hours you spend at the gym certain fat cells just won’t budge.

That doesn’t mean you should cancel your annual membership to Orangetheory.

It suggests you are like millions of people who face a similar struggle: persistent fat bulges. At times it can feel like a losing battle, but there is a solution called coolsculpting that freezes the fat away.

Thanks to Harvard University scientists, Dieter Manstein, MD and R. Rox Anderson, MD, the geniuses behind Cryolipolysis, we can now have our cake and eat it too!

 

Coolsculpting is the coolest-most innovative non-surgical fat reduction treatment and alternative to Liposuction.

It is not intended as an overall weight-loss method or a weight-loss alternative, but it does permanently freeze away stubborn fat from areas of the body that don’t respond to diet and exercise such as the abdomen, legs, arms, back, chin and chest.

This revolutionary technology targets and cools unwanted fat cells in the selected area to induce a noticeable, natural-looking reduction in fat bulges without needles, cutting, stitching, anesthesia, or recovery time. It is safe, FDA-cleared, effective and virtually painless.

The concept that cold can selectively affect and eliminate fat cells without damaging the skin or surrounding tissue was the insight behind Cryolipolysis, the proven science on which the coolsculpting procedure is based.

CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), then die.

Healthy Solutions Medspa

Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.

The results look natural and can be seen as early as three weeks following treatment, with the most dramatic results after one to three months.

Keep in mind, your body is still flushing fat cells and will continue doing so for up to four to six months after treatment.

The results should remain stable long-term as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle.

 

Both Liposuction and CoolSculpting eliminate fat cells permanently, but coolsculpting requires no medical preparation, surgery, medications prior to treatment or health risks.

Patients who undergo CoolSculpting treatment often spend procedure time watching Netflix, reading, checking emails, or just relaxing.

During the procedure, a gel pad and applicator is applied to the targeted area.

The vacuum applicator draws the tissue into the cooling cup for controlled cooling to the targeted fat. The sensation is a firm pull and pressure.

Treatment time is 35 minutes, depending on your needs. There is no bruising, health risks or downtime for recovery associated with CoolSculpting and no need to take days off of work.

 

With Liposuction, you would need to take several days off from work and from daily activities to recover, as it is an invasive surgical procedure that does require cutting, stitching, and sedation with general anesthesia.

There is also a preparation period that may include medication along with a medical evaluation and lab tests prior to surgery.

The Liposuction process involves a plastic surgeon making a small incision and using a long, narrow suction tool called a cannula to vacuum fat out of a specific area of your body.

The surgery can take several hours with multiple days of recovery time and skin bruising for up to two weeks.

 

Liposuction involves risks such as bleeding and a possible reaction to anesthesia.

Other complications specific to Liposuction include contour irregularities in which your skin might appear bumpy or withered due to uneven fat removal.

There is also a chance of permanent damage to the skin caused by the thin tube used during the Liposuction procedure resulting in a spotted appearance.

In some cases, fluid accumulation can occur and might need to be drained with a needle. Patients may experience temporary numbness throughout areas of the body.

 

More severe and rare cases associated with Liposuction surgery include fat embolism in which pieces of loosened fat break away and become trapped in a blood vessel and gather in the lungs or travel to the brain.

A fat embolism is a medical emergency and can be life-threatening.

Kidney and heart problems are also a concern as shifts in fluid levels while fluids are being injected and suctioned out can cause severe kidney and heart problems.

 

If you generally like your shape, but you want to get rid of a persistent fat bulge like annoying love handles without surgery or downtime for recovery, Coolsculpting is your best option.

For 6 years in a row, Coolscultping won New Beauty magazine best non-surgical fat reduction treatment.

It is a safe and convenient alternative to Liposuction with more than 7 million Coolsculpting treatments performed worldwide.

3 Awesome Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Posted on

Healthy Solutions Medspa You’ve likely heard of laser hair removal, but maybe you don’t know much beyond the fact that it exists. That’s why we’re going to answer some of the common questions pertaining to the highly popular treatment, and help you understand why it’s the best route to go for people who want to permanently eliminate hair in certain areas of the body.

Did you know that laser hair removal has a 92% rating on RealSelf? Everybody loves it—doctors and patients alike! Here’s why:

Permanence

Most patients have permanent hair loss after their laser hair removal treatment sessions are concluded. Six treatments are recommended to get optimum results.

Cost Effectiveness

The upfront costs of laser hair removal will pay for themselves by a lot in the long run. Let’s compare laser treatment to other common hair removal methods. These are their average lifetime costs:

  • Razors: A little over $10,000
  • Regular waxing: About $23,000
  • Laser hair removal: About $3,000

As you can see, laser hair removal is over 3 times more cost effective than a lifetime of shaving, and about $20,000 less expensive than a lifetime of waxing. That’s serious savings.

Time Savings Add Up

According to one survey, the average woman spends approximately 72 days in her lifetime shaving her legs. That’s nearly 2.5 months! In just several sessions at our office (which range in time depending on what area you are treating), you’ll be able to win back a huge portion of that 72 days, and never have to think about hair removal again.

Other Benefits

  • 4-6 sessions may seem like quite a few, but in comparison to comparable permanent hair removal solutions, it’s one of the fastest from an in-office timeframe perspective.
  • It’s less painful than other comparable methods.
  • It’s truly effective.
  • You can focus on various areas of the body such as your upper lip, chin, underarms, bikini, back or legs to name a few.

We’re here to answer any other questions you may have. As Montgomery and Bucks County, PA’s premier provider of laser hair removal, know that with Healthy Solutions and Dr. Luciano, you’ll be in the best hands possible. We look forward to hearing from you!

VI Peel: Renew Your Skin With This Popular Chemical Peel

Posted on

Healthy Solutions Medspa

Women all across the world love the Vi Peel for one reason: Because it works!

What is a Vi Peel?

The VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that effectively improves the tone and texture of one’s skin.

Many women choose the VI Peel not only because of how well it works, but also because it’s quick and easy, and requires no advanced appointments or preparation.

The VI Peel is available only at physician offices or at a medical spa, and stimulates collagen and elastin to fine lines and wrinkles, treat acne, age spots, and pigmentation.

What Is Unique About The Vi Peel?

Many other peels are now considered things of the past, due to VI Peel’s groundbreaking ability to deliver stunning results with absolutely zero pain.

The days of “no pain no gain” no longer exist thanks to the VI Peel.

Before, in order to make a peel work, you’d have to go very deep into the skin, which would deliver high results, but also heavy downtime and a lot of pain.

The VI Peel delivers even better results with little downtime and no discomfort.

It only takes one VI Peel to see dramatic results, making your skin look younger, less sun damaged and more vibrant.

Healthy Solutions Medspa

When Will I See the Results?

After your first peel, you should see the stunning results within a week. Once we apply the solution, your skin will peel over the course of about four days, and then return to its normal pH level—which is when the full results will appear. You’ll know the peel has fully kicked in when your skin glows like it’s never glowed before, and feels much tighter and refreshed than usual. If you suffer from hyper-pigmented or otherwise damaged skin, you’ll notice that the acne/damages are completely gone or very much improved.

Healthy Solutions Medspa

What If I Have Acne?

The VI Peel will work to fight acne, however we recommend that you use the VI Peel Purify which is a customized VI Peel specifically made for acne prone skin.

Celebrity Recommended

Don’t be fooled thinking that your favorite gorgeous celebrities attain their stunning beauty without the aid of treatments like chemical peels.

These hot Hollywood stars have all admitted to using and preferring the VI Peel:

Medspa Treatments Have You Falling in Love With Your Skin

3 Medspa Treatments That Will Have You Falling in Love With Your Skin

September is here and fall is right around the corner. This month is the perfect time to correct all that sun damage caused by being out in the sun this summer. Here are 3 treatments medspa treatments that we recommend for you to fall back in love with your skin this month.

Let’s go over these 3 non-surgical medspa treatments—at least one of them will surely be right for you.

Photofacial/IPL

The problem with all that fun in the sun is, after two or three months you’ll have exposed yourself to an oversupply of UV rays—by a longshot. When that happens, discoloration, freckles, dark spots or scars will quickly appear. With a photofacial/IPL (intense pulsed light), you can effectively reduce or eliminate those UV-related discolorations. The treatment only takes 30 to 45 minutes, so you’ll be in and out on your way in no time!

How it works: Photofacials are laser treatments that use optimized light devices to deliver energy into the skin. The laser light will target your vascular and pigmented lesions, which will disappear as the healing process ensues. The treatment will cause those dark spots to flake and lift off, revealing a more glowing and even skin tone. Treatments can be done on your face, chest, or hands!

We recommend undergoing a Series of 3 treatments for best results.

Chemical Peel

Chemical peels offer an exceptional non-surgical way to improve sun-damaged skin. They’re also fast, simple and pain-free. We’ll brush a chemical solution onto your face, neck or chest, which will cause flaking of dead skin cells to occur over the course of a few days. Once those dead cells are removed, texture will improve and collagen will be stimulated. The treatment only takes about 30 minutes, and after a few days your skin will glow!

At our Medspa, we offer the VI Peel, the Obagi Blue Radiance Peel, and AHA peels.

And best yet, all of our chemical peels are physician strength and never tested on animals. Learn the full details here!

Microneedling

Microneedling is a non-invasive treatment that works wonders to eliminate fine lines and wrinkles caused by the sun. The process involves nearly microscopic needles brushing over the skin to create what are referred to as controlled “micro-injuries.” Those allow the body to regenerate fresh collagen and elastin, and once healed, you’ll be beaming!

Celebrities on Medspa Treatments They Love:

Many of Hollywood’s celebrities use these treatments to keep their skin always looking fresh and bright. Two of the most notable actors are Lucy Liu and Jennifer Aniston.

  • Lucy Liu suffers from hyperpigmentation, which causes darker patches of skin than the normal surrounding color to occur. This happens to her because of a dense dermal layer that produces more melanin than usual. So how does she combat hyperpigmentation? With IPLs and chemical peels. They’re two safe and simple procedures that keep her looking gorgeous!

  • Jennifer Aniston has admitted to using microneedling. “I do microneedling!” she said, We don’t have to tell you about how great her skin is, so clearly the microneedling helps!

So, is YOUR skin sun damaged?

What Dads Really Want on Father’s Day: Botox and Coolsculpting!

Posted on
fathers day medspa At the end of every May, or perhaps early June, it’s likely that you ask yourself the same question: What am I going to give my Dad (or the Dad in your life) for Father’s Day? Well, if you’re all out of ideas this year (or the thought of purchasing another necktie or dress shirt that sounds like a drag) you can help him transform his body by treating him to a non-invasive cosmetic procedure!

The amount of men getting cosmetic work done is on the rise!

It’s true that more men are opting for non-invasive cosmetic procedures such as CoolSculpting® and Botox® to help them look and feel their best. Now both women and men are spending more time working on their appearances!

Not convinced? Consider this!

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, over 400,000 men underwent Botox® injections in 2014, a 337% increase since 2000! What’s more, 90,000 received fillers, which is an 86% increase since 2000! And, while CoolSculpting® is a relatively new procedure, more men have been turning to this procedure to help them eliminate those stubborn fat areas that will not go away—even after they make a continuous effort to diet and exercise! Botox®, which is injected directly into muscles, will help to eliminate years off his face and smooth his skin. Dads who choose this procedure should expect to be in and out of our office in less than an hour, experience minimal pain, and see results in just a few days. fathers day medspa

What should that special Dad in your life expect from his CoolSculpting® treatment at our med spa in Bucks County?

Dads who want to freeze away any stubborn fat deposits with CoolSculpting® should expect to be at our office for a little over an hour (or more if they are doing multiples areas at once.) Dads should expect little or no pain, and they can even go about their day once the procedure is complete.

Results can be seen in as quickly as few weeks, with the most dramatic seen after 2-3 months. men coolsculpting If the thought of treating your Dad, or that special Dad in your life, to either Botox® or a CoolSculpting® treatment at our med spa in Bucks County, PA sounds enticing, we encourage you to call us at (267) 332-5567, or schedule an appointment with us online!

2 Must Have Treatments to Help Get You Bikini Ready!

Posted on

Once the cold weather subsides, and you’re finally able to slip on your first spring sundress or pair of shorts, you might notice that your abdomen, thighs, or arms have paid the price for all of the goodies you consumed over the winter. What’s more, while you are making an effort to shed the weight and eat better, you still can’t manage to get rid of the bulge for good. If plastic surgery is not an option (because you would rather enjoy your summer outside rather than inside wearing bandages!), two revolutionary and non-invasive treatment options you should consider to help get you bikini ready are CoolSculpting® and Venus Freeze™!

Both treatments are painless and require no anesthesia, have zero downtime, and are FDA-cleared! So, for times when eating healthy and exercising still won’t get rid of your stubborn fatty areas, look to sculpt and freeze them away permanently and safely, with these two treatment options!

How does Coolsculpting and Venus Freeze work?

Coolsculpting® technology freezes away fat cells using a controlled cooling so that they will not return, thus providing you with a permanent long-term solution to your problem. Venus Freeze™ uses radio frequency technology that stimulates collagen growth, and also helps to stimulate the blood circulation that will reduce the appearance of cellulite and shrink unwanted fat cells.
