Fascinating Facts to Know about Aging!

Posted in Main at 1:02 pm by Director

Hey girls!  Just last weekend I attended a one day conference along with Kristie from the office and my niece.  We took the train down to the Philadelphia Convention Center to spend the day listening to Drs. Mehmet Oz and Michael Roizen.  Best known for their presence on the Oprah show.  We learned some fascinating facts about the causes of aging, cholesterol, blood pressure, the benefits of walnuts, how aspirin is an antiaging product, how 30 minutes of walking per day is one of the biggest ways to enhance healthy aging.  I could go on and on.  What an educational day – so well worth it!  Just thought I’d share some of my notes with you!

1.  The causes of aging – rusting of the arteries, weakening of the immune system and social issues.

2.  The 5 biggest life adjustments you can make – blood pressure control, no smoking, exercise 30 minutes daily, stress control, and eating a healthy diet that you love!

3.  Inflammation in the arteries cause wrinkles in the skin.  Toxins build up, nutrients can’t reach the cells, and the skin doesn’t get nourishment.

4.  Eighty-five percent of headaches are from dehydration.

5.  Your water intake per day should equal half your body weight in ounces.

6.  The liver is responsible for metabolism.

7.  Insomniacs crave carbs.

8.  Muscle burns 50x more calories than fat.

9.  The spice helpful for controlling weight is cinnamon.

10. Ten tablespoons of tomato sauce per week will increase your life expectancy.

As you can see – it was a Great Day!  :)

Being Yourself — and Loving It!

Posted in Oscars Blog at 4:15 am by Oscar

Just read my person’s blog about vanity — and I’m trying to get my paws around this concept.  Sorry — don’t get it.

If I didn’t groom daily and keep my amazing good looks in tip-top shape how could I be who I am?  I model the best-a-cat-can-be every day!

Female persons should do the same since they are the best of the humans (except for my person of course – the doctor).

They are stronger and have a better grip on reality in my opinion – but to be stopped by a little thing they call vanity?

My advice?  Think like a cat.  Lick yourself first and then you can be the best for everything else.  Yeah — disgusting metaphor for non-cats but you should get what I mean.

This is a non-issue for me and it’s time women join me — you are the best — so look your best!

Gotta go check my bowl — my person was near it and maybe ….

Later,

Oscar

Doctor — Am I Just Being Vain?

Posted in Main at 3:42 am by Doctor

I hear this frequently.  A client has decided they want a procedure destined to solve a vexing problem bugging them for years … and then the guilt statement — am I just being vain?

After years of nurturing, caring for, and sacrificing for their families many women have serious reservations doing something for themselves.

Curiously, this doesn’t apply to shoes, handbags, and outfits — especially for special occasions.  I believe this disconnect comes from hard wiring in the female psyche causing her to choose to look the best she can under all circumstances — especially as she represents her family and their wellbeing.

However — with issues relating to spending disposable income on her body, her aging skin, her sun damage, the hard wiring is less fierce.  She’s configured herself for sacrifice and opting for change — just for herself — gives rise to hesitation, angst, and thoughts of wastefulness.

Give it up ladies!  Happiness is an elusive thing — and if something about the woman staring back at you from the mirror, what the ravages of sun, aging, and caring for others have done to your look truly bothers you — it must be remedied!

How in the world can you be most effective in your life if you feel lousy about how you look?

It’s not your fault!  Let yourself off the hook!  Give yourself permission to invest in yourself.

Go ahead — of all people on earth — you deserve it!

It’s not wasteful, or vain, and you’re not robbing your children.  They’ll be proud of you!

After all — your face and skin are your best accessories!

And we’re here to help you with the most advaced technology available today … and you have so many options.

Take care of yourself first and you’ll be more effective for others — family, friends, and even in the workplace.

And no — you’re NOT being vain!

Lowest Botox Cosmetic Prices in the Area!!!

Allergan (who makes Botox and Juvederm) just promoted us due to our expertise in using Botox (Okay — just a little pat on the back) but the important part of this is the cost of materials for us has gone down!

Guess who benefits?  YOU — of course. :)

Imagine Crow’s Feet Botox for only $195?  WOW.  And other sites are reduced as well.

Now’s the perfect time to get wrinkle free!

Once that’s done wouldn’t you like to spend your time enjoying your new look and have your friends commenting about how refreshed and young looking you are — yet not being able to figure out exactly how you did it?

It’s all possible and within your reach!

Stay tuned — and I’ll go into some detail over the next few days.  It doesn’t get any better than this!

Testimonials


  • "My daughter sees Kristie for microdermabrasion treatments for stubborn blackheads. We had tried many prescription items and Proactiv®. We saw little results. We scheduled a consultation to see what other treatments might help the process of clearing up those stubborn blackheads. Kristie recommended microdermabrasion and after the first 2 treatments a great improvement was noticed and improvement continues with each treatment. Kristie's friendly personality put my daughter right at ease."

  • "I had Botox at another doctor's office and it did not take. I came here to Dr. Fairfield's office and was so pleased with the results. I am fifty two years old and not many people believe it. I feel much happier when I look into the mirror these days. I also drive over fifty miles to get here one way, but it is worth it!"

  • "I am very pleased with the results of Botox and Restylane! I had 3 deep grooves in between my eyes from squinting (a hereditary thing from my father) and it bothered me! My dad's and aunt's grooves are so big they can hold a dime in the slots. Before my lines got like that, I came to see Dr. Fairfield. He did Restylane and I am so happy with the results! Don't hesitate if it bothers you! The staff and Dr. Fairfield are wonderful and they are here for you! Thanks!"

  • "I've had three Fraxel treatments so far and already see tremendous improvement. The overall texture of my skin is smooth and clear of red spots. The deep crevices from nose down to chin is much less pronounced and best of all I can curl my eyelashes again. So, my brows were lifted too!

    Amy, Sherley and Kristie were competent and caring as usual.

    So with one more treatment to go I believe I can stave off having a thread lift for five or more years."
