The Asset of Friendship

Posted in Main at 1:43 am by Doctor

It’s difficult to put a value on the friendships forged with our clients – I consider it priceless and the women professionals I work with feel the same way.

Our’s is the most unusual “medical office” in the area for a couple of reasons.

First, the rapport with our clients that gets established speaks of the listening, hearing, and then trust between our providers and clients.

Second, this rapport moves into solid friendships over time, clients getting to know each staff member, the visits just to “say hello,” and the surprise occasional gifts of appreciation.

Results speak for themselves, and I daresay without delivering on results in a way suiting the lifestyle of our busy female clientele (though we see men as well) we wouldn’t see the same level of response coming back to us.

But there’s something about the friendships forged here at the Center for Aesthetics that speaks volumes.

And I want to go on record saying it’s these relationships that make the most sense for me to come to work — to see transformation happening before my eyes … and the wonderful glow of developing friendship with some of the nicest people I’ve ever met.

Meeting you, knowing you, then helping you — all in an atmosphere of kindness and friendship.

It just doesn’t get any better than this.

Thank you to our wonderful clients — for it’s you who enrich our lives on a daily basis.

Best,

James C. Fairfield, MD FAAD

Dramatic Changes in a Couple of Hours

Posted in Main at 5:54 am by Doctor

I continue to be impressed with the changes in body contouring created by SmartLipo.  Yesterday was no different …

A woman came in with an abdomen she hated — couldn’t wear the sexy clothes she wanted — and was ready to do something about it — right now!

Three hours later, she left with an hour glass figure, flat tummy, and felt fine.  Going shopping tomorrow.

Look out wardrobe!

It just doesn’t get any better than this.

And it’s great to be able to help people just like this, to look the way they want, through such an incredible, safe procedure.

I’ve had it done (by my staff and me) and can attest to its being pain free and with no downtime.  Had a full schedule the next day.

Now … it’s your turn. :)

Your doctor,

Some Days …

Posted in Oscars Blog at 5:34 am by Oscar

My person, the doctor, learned a valuable lesson this morning.

Never work with super glue, wipe up the excess with kleenex, then absentmindedly blow your nose with the same kleenex.

Even I know that — and I’m a cat!

Hope he doesn’t go to the office like that — looks like a harbor seal, BIG whiskers and all.

Actually, he’s really smart … really … no really. :)

Fat Bulges Permanently Gone — Finally

Posted in Main at 3:50 am by Doctor

I received this from a client the other day and just had to pass it on.

Dr. Fairfield 

 

Girls. listen up — I’ve had several SmartLipo procedures done by Dr. Fairfield and his amazing staff of women — who actually become your new friends as we get to see a lot of each other and they keep pampering me!

The procedure is done in the office (no risk of general anesthesia), and is pain free.  Not only that, I could resume my normal daily activities the very next day!  Now, I’m a busy professional with little time to spare so here’s what worked for me … they changed their schedules around so I could be done.

I’ve since heard from other women the same was done for them.  How’s that for understanding our lives as women and providing service we can work with!

I lost a couple of dress sizes, had my thighs done and now look contoured and sveldt.  I keep looking at myself in the mirror — I look that great.

My friends are now going there to have their fat removed — and it’s permanent since the fat cells are removed in the process.

And here’s what’s really different about SmartLipo — it treats the skin at the same time it’s destroying fat — causing your skin to tighten up  — NO tummy tuck afterward necessary.

I can’t stop telling my friends or getting the message out. 

Trust me, woman to woman — it’s the Perfect Answer to having that cute and slimming dress — or your business suit – not bulge in all the wrong places. 

And look out, swimsuit season!

Changes You'll Like

Posted in Main at 3:16 am by Doctor

The Center for Aesthetics’ suite has always offered a calming, stress free atmosphere … complete with soft music, gentle scents, and a very attentive professional staff dedicated to giving you the utmost in quality care and attention.

But the adjoining, older, and more traditional dermatology suite (where many of you have had your Fraxel laser treatments and SmartLipo fat removal done) both looked and felt … well, “clinical”.

All of this has changed … redone … combining the two suites and presenting you with a complete and wonderful environment worthy of you — our esteemed clients.

The entire place is now a tranquil destination … elegant competence … where not only will you still experience comprehensive skin care under the guidance of the most elite professionals on the planet … but also where you will receive rejuvenation of both your body … and spirit.

Renovations nearing completion … just a few details left, and already our clients are saying, “Wow, can I stay just a little longer? I feel sooo relaxed.”

Now, it’s your turn.  If you’ve never been here before you won’t appreciate the difference — no matter — it will be worth your while just to drop by, say hello, have some cheese and crackers … maybe a glass of wine or our famous lemon-cucumber water … and have a tour.  Don’t forget to ask for an information packet too … because you’ll want to know everything about how we can help you. 

I’d like personally to meet you and get to know you.  We place high value on becoming friends.

See you soon!

People Will Talk

Posted in Oscars Blog at 11:35 am by Oscar

Hi — Oscar here.

Been a while since I’ve blogged — distracted by all the new birds on the lawn lately.  My person (the doctor) put a bell on me so the birds are safe.  But I sure can give ‘em a good scare!

Did you read my person’s blog on SmartLipo?  It’s all true.  I know ’cause HE had it done — by his staff … with his help.

Gotta believe it didn’t hurt — he really did it to himself to show his staff how it’s done — then they finished the job.

He was back to work the next day with a full schedule.  I asked him how it felt.  He said, “Not any worse than a good workout at the gym!”  He seemed fine afterward.

I hate to say it — he was thin anyway — but now what used to hang over his belt is gone, caput — forever.

Humans … gotta love ‘em! :)

Love y’all,

Oscar

SmartLipo Is …

Posted in Main at 11:11 am by Doctor

  • Only 3 to 5 hours out of your day.

 

  • The areas of fat you want removed are marked with a washable marker … while you are standing — so they can be identified correctly.

 

  • You are then covered with a warm blanket, with fragrant warm booties; your head cradled in a warm neck wrap … so soothing and relaxing, soft music playing in the background.

 

  • The area of fat to be removed is numbed completely … but you don’t mind because it’s gradual — and you took pre-op medication just to “take the edge off”. 

 

  • Completely awake and aware, you realize … this is easy!

 

  • Then, the SmartLipo laser tiny tube is inserted under your skin through a similarly tiny puncture and moved through the entire area of fat … liquefying fat and destroying the cells … so your fat never returns.  At the same time your skin is being lasered to trigger tightening so you won’t have loose, hanging skin afterward.

 

  • You can actually see the glow of the laser light moving around … and if you like, we’ll even let you watch — it’s fascinating to see.

 

  • Then your now liquid fat is removed, with the cells, through a vacuum tube into a container.  Yuck!  Goodbye and good riddance!

 

  • After the procedure is over you stand once more and we check for symmetry and balance — correcting any areas missed.  After all, you want the perfect solution. :)

 

  • Absorbent pads are placed over the tiny holes since they’ll drain fluid for a couple of days, a compressive tailor made garment is placed on the area, and covered with a Velcro binder.  You’ll only need the binder for about 5 days.  The garment you’ll need for 4 to 6 weeks.  It fits so well nobody sees it through your clothing.  It’s our little secret.

 

  • Next morning, you can shower, replace your absorbent pads and garment plus binder — then off to your day as usual.  You’ll feel like you had a good workout at the gym.

 

  • Voila!  A new you!  And you can relax, knowing your fat cells are gone … never to return.

 

  • Dig out those “too tight” clothes you’ve been saving or …

 

  • Go shopping!!

You will love your: New waistline, inner and outer thighs, thin upper arms, tight neck and jowls, sides and back (no more love handles), and flat tummy.

You have been sculpted and now reveal a beautiful silhouette.

Congratulations for a Smart Lipo decision.

But Beware:

People will talk … look at her … it’s shocking … outrageous … how did she do it?  It’s not fair!

This can be your story.  Call 215-361-5030 to find out how.

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."

    Having SmartLipo was one of the better decisions in my life. I would recommend the Center for Aesthetics to anyone interested in improving their self image."

  • "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."
