What You Should Know About Dermal Fillers

February 11, 2016 by Karissa Marbury 2 Comments

Screen Shot 2016-02-11 at 1.29.29 PMWhat are Fillers?

Dermal Fillers and Injectables are a minimally invasive solution to restoring youthfulness to the skin. Adding volume intradermally provides immediate, long-lasting correction for fine lines, wrinkles and loss of elasticity.

Hyaluronic Acid-Based Fillers

Like collagen, hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance and primarily used to promote fullness and volume. The Hyaluronic Acid-based fillers that we offer are:

  1. Restylane– a safe and natural dermal filler that restores fullness to the skin to correct fine facial wrinkles and folds. It is all-natural, therefore no spot tests are needed.
  2. Juvederm XC– injected into areas of facial tissue where moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds occur to temporarily add volume to the skin, especially around the nose and mouth.
  3. Juvederm Voluma XC– the first and only dermal filler to instantly add volume to the cheek area, temporarily reversing the signs of aging.
  4. Perlane– similar to Restylane, but different in that the average size of the particles are larger and the injection is done more deeply, making it a good choice for more severe facial wrinkles that benefit from a deeper injection into the skin.

Semi-Permanent Fillers

Longer-lasting dermal fillers typically contain thicker substances, such as the biodegradable synthetic filler known as poly-L-lactic acid. These types of soft tissue fillers are used to treat deeper facial lines, and though they offer semi-permanent results, it’s possible that you’ll need an occasional “touch up” several weeks after your initial injections. The semi-permanent filler we offer is:

  1. Radiesse– the only filler that replenishes lost volume and stimulates the production of your own collagen. Radiesse is used to correct smile lines, marionette lines, corners of the mouth, pre-jowl, and chin wrinkles.

You may want to consider fillers if

  • You have lines or wrinkles around your mouth, eyes or forehead.
  • You’d like to enhance the volume in areas such as the cheeks, jaw line or lips.
  • If you have scars and depressions in the skin resulting from acne, injury or congenital imperfections.

How to prepare

Before your injections, we’ll ask that you refrain from taking aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, St. John’s Wort, and any other medications that could cause bruising. Be sure to inform us of any medicines you are taking. If you have a history of cold sores, we may recommend taking Valtrex as a precaution.

Immediately after

You will likely see the results immediately following the procedure, though it’s not uncommon for patients to experience swelling or minimal bruising in the area of the injection site. We’ll give you an ice pack right after to help with swelling. The period of swelling will depend largely on the type of soft tissue filler you received, though most swelling, bruising, and redness should dissipate within one week to ten days.

3 Tips To Glowing Skin All Winter

January 15, 2016 by Karissa Marbury Leave a Comment

25dc4e1e-f8c5-44bb-ba61-6ea573b265a4

Winter comes with shorter days, colder weather and dry, itchy upset skin…YUCK! We want to share with you some of our go-to tips for achieving glowing skin all winter long. Better yet, lets get you that “dewy” look that everyone’s been talking about!

Stay Hydrated

Drinking lots of water helps maintain your skin and body’s overall optimum health. We suggest drinking a cup of warm/hot water in the mornings with lemon. Lemons are rick in Vitamin C, which enhances your beauty, by rejuvenating skin from within bringing a glow to your face. Vitamin C also helps the skin and digestive system by flushing out toxins.

Diet & Exercise

We know, we know– it’s winter and it’s cold and that makes us want to eat more and exercise less. Many people don’t realize that what you eat and put into your body plays a huge role on how your skin looks and how your body feels. Staying healthy by eating foods rich in good fats and Omega 3’s are highly suggested for maintaining that glowing skin look literally from the inside, out. Exercise goes along with eating the right kinds of foods. When you exercise, your body produces endorphins, which make you look and feel better. Exercise alone, also makes you look better by promoting healthy circulation within the body.

Don’t Over Exfoliate

Exfoliated your skin is good, but in the winter months, we suggest you tone it down a notch. Gently exfoliate every 1-2 weeks, while staying on your regular skin care regimen. Getting oxygen facials are also great for plumping up the skin to make it hydrated and glow!

Say Goodbye To Your Double Chin Forever With Kybella

January 7, 2016 by Karissa Marbury Leave a Comment

Screen Shot 2016-01-07 at 10.11.07 AMDoes wanting to get rid of that sagging double-chin of yours without having surgery sound too good to be true? Well, it’s not! We’re now offering a service just for that, called Kybella. Kybella is used to help decrease the appearance of fat that hangs below the chin, sometimes called a double-chin.

What is Kybella?

Kybella, which is the brand name of Deoxycholic Acid, is a man-made form of a substance your body makes that helps to absorb fats. Deoxycholic Acid works by destroying fat cells where it is injected into the body.

How It Works

Depending on the results you want, Tim will determine the right number of Kybella injections. Kybella must be given in a series of up to 6 treatment sessions in order to be effective. You may receive up to 50 injections at each session. It is injected under the skin directly into the area beneath your chin. A healthcare provider will give you this injection.

You may be treated with a topical numbing medicine or an ice pack to ease pain and make you comfortable during the injections. Each treatment session should be spaced no less than 1 month apart. Many people have had visible results after 2 to 4 session.

Oxygen Facials – What’s all The Hype About?

November 19, 2015 by Karissa Marbury Leave a Comment

Screen Shot 2015-11-19 at 2.49.06 PMWe’re sure you’ve been hearing about all your favorite celebs getting oxygen facials lately. From Kim Kardashian to Jessica Biel to Channing & Jenna Tatum, they’re swearing by their oxygen facials from Intraceuticals. They love them because these facials immediately make your skin glow and look more plumped-up. We want to share why we offer the Oxygen facials by Intraceuticals and why it’s one of our favorite go-to’s!

The facial is done by using oxygen pressure to deliver a special serum with low molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to the skin. Different levels of hyaluronic acid, botanical extracts, antioxidants, peptides/vitamins are done depending on how much we think that your skin type needs at that particular time. There are four treatment options we can then choose from:

Screen Shot 2015-11-19 at 2.53.15 PM

  1. Opulence helps uneven skin tone look brighter and more luminous.
  2. Rejuvenate diminishes appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while enhancing hydration to the overall skin.
  3. Atoxelene is a Botox alternative in facial form that helps to soften and firm expression lines, define the eyes and plump the lips.
  4. Clarity calms stubborn acne while restoring moisture balance and defending against future breakouts.

For after your facial, we offer Intraceutical products that we can personally go over with you for best results.

3 Tips to Keep Your Skin Healthy During the Holidays

November 13, 2015 by Karissa Marbury Leave a Comment

Screen Shot 2015-11-13 at 2.53.23 PMDiets, exercise, staying healthy and pretty any type of routine all go out the window around the Holidays. While it may not seem to bother us as we’re stuffing our faces (literally) with all the home cooked meals, desserts and cocktails, and traveling to visit family, it takes a toll on our skin in ways we don’t even realize. We want to give you 3 tips to keep your skin healthy during the Holidays.

Maintain Your Skincare Routine

Maintaining your skincare routine is so important especially if you’re traveling. At the time, just using whatever soap the Hotel offers seems to be the way to go because it’s simple, quick & technically it’s vacation! This is a big no-no! Wherever you’re traveling to this Holiday season, being aware of the different climate can be important so that your skin doesn’t freak out all of a sudden. Different climates can make our skin more dry, oily or even in panic mode if there is stress from traveling involved. Maintaining your routine will keep your skin calm and on track so that whatever may come up will be easier to deal with. Having a good moisturizer (with SPF), Vitamin C, & face mask handy while traveling is always a plus!

Be Aware of What You’re Consuming

It would be absolutely miserable to try and stick to your diet during the Holidays! And then there’s always the one family member there to make sure you get a piece of everything…we understand! If we could tell you to be aware of just one thing, it would be your sugar intake. Minimizing the consumption of sugar over anything else is a must, not only for the skin, but for bloating, fatigue & stress as well. Too much sugar can cause your skin to look puffy and also make you dehydrated. When the skin is dehydrated, it gets dry and tends to freak out on us. So, eat up on Thanksgiving and Christmas; just be aware of what is going into your body and drink lots of water.

Plan Ahead

Planning ahead is easier said than done. When thinking about the Holidays, we think of what all has to get done instead of what all needs to be maintained on a personal, skincare level. Making sure you’re prepared for the Holidays–have all of your products needed for travel and for when stores will be closed, so that you don’t have to “make do” when you run out of your routine products.

4 Reasons Why We Love Vitamin C

October 23, 2015 by Karissa Marbury Leave a Comment

There are so many different forms and benefits of vitamin C. Not only is it good for our immune system; it’s awesome for the skin! We’re going to tell you the top 4 reasons we always recommend our GloTherapeutic Vitamin C Serum to our clients.

Screen Shot 2015-10-23 at 12.34.11 PMProvides protection against damage induced by UV radiation.

A lot of our medspa services aide in the reversing of damaged skin due to too much sun exposure. Not protecting the skin from UV radiation may not show in the youthful years; but with age, comes years of sun damage and a long process of reversing it. This means a lot of time with us…and did we mention that it can get VERY expensive? Keep your beautiful skin covered from the sun as much as you can.

Improves skin elasticity and decreases wrinkles by stimulating collagen synthesis.

Not only is Vitamin C protective; it works to reverse the looks of wrinkles. No way a small bottle of serum does that!

Boosts the immune system and accelerates the healing of wounds.

The production of new cells help the healing process of stubborn wounds, such as scars and scabs caused by previous or current acne.

Produces collagen with 3 active ingredients–Ascorbic Acid, Zinc Sulfate and L-tyrosine.

With all three ingredients acting and working toward the productions of new collagen, there’s no reason not to have this product!

10 Tips Under 10 Minutes to Keep Your Skin Clear and Healthy

October 1, 2015 by Karissa Marbury 2 Comments

10 Tips Blog ImageWe all know the saying, “Less is more”. Well, keeping your skin healthy on a day-to-day basis will actually save you LESS hassle in the long run. Who doesn’t have 5-10 minutes during the day to prevent hours of dreaded treatments later on? Here are 10 tips that will take you maybe 10 minutes to do in order to keep your skin clear and healthy:

1. Wear Sunscreen

Whether it’s in your makeup or you have to apply it; always, always wear sunscreen! We’re all aware of how the sun (and/or tanning bed) make us look and feel–“When I tan, my acne goes away because it dries up my skin”, “When I’m tan, I feel skinnier”, “Everything looks better when you’re tan”. No one can argue with any of those statements and its all true….for the time being. In the long run, (we promise) you will look and feel worse about your skin. Age spots, dark & light spots, sun damage, scarring, melanoma and yes, even acne all come from too much UV ray exposure. We aren’t telling you to hide in a cave and never go outside–we’re simply saying that less is more. Have fun in the sun, just wear sunscreen and be aware of the long term affects that the sun has on your skin.

2. Always Wash Your Face

There skincare products out there better than others (which varies from person to person), but no matter what you’re washing your face with, just do it. It’s as simple as that! There is makeup, like our Glo Minerals line, that are actually skin perfecting, so you can get by with the occasional, “I fell asleep in my makeup” oops. Washing your face should still be a must no matter what you have on your skin throughout the day. Your pores get clogged with dirt, oil, dust & makeup, so washing your face is always necessary even if you’re just wearing a tinted moisturizer during the day. And what’s better than going to sleep at night with a fresh, clean face?

3. Keep Your Pillow Case Clean

If you’ve never thought about this before, then think; how much dirt, oil, makeup, hair product & grime do you think are on your pillow case at this very moment?

According to Dr. David E. Bank, director and founder of The Center for Dermatology, Cosmetic & Laser Surgery, “Acne Mechanica is any type of acne that is the result of material or objects touching your face. When your pillowcase is not laundered or changed regularly, a build up of dirt and oil from the environment as well as your skin and hair touching the pillow is transferred back to your skin. This can clog pores and cause blemishes.”

We suggest washing or changing out your pillow case every 2-3 days. OR lay a clean towel down at night to block the dirt from getting to your pretty skin.

4. Keep Your Hair Out of Your Face

Any way to keep oil from getting into the pores on your face is a must! The longer and more hair you have, the more it’s going to fall in your face, (unless, of course, you wear it pulled back every day). So, for those of us who like to wear our hair long and lusciously around our face, at least keep it from touching your actual skin as much as possible so oil production doesn’t occur throughout the day.

5. Cut Back on Your Moisturizer

Many of us don’t realize that our skin produces natural oils in order to keep our skin moisturized. (Like a snake), we need to produce new skin cells and get rid of the old, dead skin.

6. Change Out Your Makeup Brushes

Even if your skin is “clean,” your makeup brushes are still collecting oil, dust, dead skin, and fallout from greasy hair products you spray around your mirror. The build up of all of this can cause your pores to clog, resulting in acne. We suggest cleaning your brushes with an (oil free) makeup remover wipe after every use. Then, for a further clean, soak brushes with anti-bacterial soap and let air dry on a clean towel–we suggest doing this every 1-2 weeks.

7. Buy Good Skincare Products & Makeup

Just like shopping for clothes, sometimes all we need is a nice expensive pair of ____ that will last forever! Our skin also has needs. Buying good smelling face wash and cheap makeup from Walgreens sometimes just doesn’t cut it. We aren’t saying to never buy products from there; we’re simply saying that you need to know what your skin likes and doesn’t like. No convenient store is going to have pure makeup that is skin perfecting, so its going to clog your pores.

“When I received my first peel from the natural look, Christine automatically knew that my skin was oily and hormonal without even having to dissect and touch my skin. At that point, I entrusted my skin into her hands. She told me the products and makeup she herself would use in order to get my skin looking great again (with no pressure what-so-ever).”

8. Drink LOTS of Water

Water is your skin’s best friend…now repeat that ten times!  The skin is the last organ to receive the nutrients we consume, which means it’s the last to get the water you sip. When skin is dehydrated, it creates more oil to make up for the missing water. This can cause breakouts, irritation and dry patches. Skin can even feel oily and dry at the same time. (source)

9. Be Aware of What You’re Body Is Consuming

As mentioned above, the skin is the last organ to receive the nutrients we consume.  The bottom line is that whatever’s going on inside your gut will eventually show in your skin.”

The 3 things we suggest you watch are:

  1. Alcohol intake- dehydrates the skin
  2. Sugar intake- gets into your bloodstream, making your insulin levels spike, which can aggravate acne, wrinkles and rashes
  3. Dairy intake- the hormone levels in milk may play a role in excess sebum production, which promotes acne. (try goat milk, unsweetened almond milk, or goat cheese instead)

10. Don’t Stress

Not stressing out is easier said than done. Stress causes more damage to our bodies than we think. When you’re tense, your body releases stress hormones including cortisol, which may increase the skin’s oil production, making you prone to pimples. Some things we suggest to avoid stress:

  1. Exercise- exercising releases endorphins that boost your mood and make you feel good, while also serving as a valuable distraction to your daily worries.
  2. Healthier Eating- Well-nourished bodies are better prepared to cope with stress.
  3. Get Enough Sleep- Adequate sleep fuels your mind, as well as your body. Feeling tired will increase your stress because it may cause you to think irrationally.

How do Juvederm XC and Juvederm Voluma Differ?

September 17, 2015 by Tim Haag Leave a Comment

Screen Shot 2016-04-14 at 4.58.42 PM

JUVÉDERM® XC and JUVÉDERM® Voluma XC

The biggest difference is the area each dermal filler targets. JUVÉDERM® XC corrects moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the “smile lines” that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth. These are also called nasolabial folds and facial parentheses.

Additionally, JUVÉDERM® XC is used to soften the lines that run from your mouth to your chin, which are also called marionette lines. For lips, JUVÉDERM® XC adds plumpness, definition and greater symmetry.

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC targets the cheek area. The VOLUMA® gel is thicker and injected more deeply, allowing instant correction of age-related loss of volume. A VOLUMA® treatment can create cheekbone-area contour and lift for up to two years.

How Does Hyaluronic Acid Work?

Hyaluronic Acid is actually a complex carbohydrate found in cells throughout the body, though the greatest concentrations are in skin tissue.

As a water binder, HA improves the moisture content of skin as well as prevents moisture loss. HA can bind up to 1,000 times its weight in water, which is how it combats aging skin because the skin’s ability to produce Hyaluronic Acid on its own decreases as we get older. With the drop, the skin is able to hold less water. As the injected gel binds to water, it literally fills spaces and minimizes skin wrinkles and folds. The Hyaluronic Acid then works in tandem with the skin’s collagen – collagen gives the skin firmness but HA hydrates and nourishes it.

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC and JUVÉDERM® XC Are Both Safe, Reversible

Our Nashville JUVÉDERM® clients love their results and that improvement in their skin in immediate, with no downtime. If they don’t love what they see, both treatments are reversible.

Both JUVÉDERM® XC and JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC are safe and have FDA approval. Keep in mind, however, that while these dermal fillers can be used together they are are not interchangeable.
Think of it this way: JUVÉDERM® XC fights time. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC fights gravity.

6 Reasons to Switch to Glo Minerals

September 17, 2015 by Karissa Marbury 1 Comment

It’s Pure

Glo minerals combines pure natural pigment minerals with an advanced blend of antioxidants and vitamins. This not only make your skin glow, but also works as a skin improvement and protector.

It Offers Different Levels of Coverage

It Works On All Skin Types

All Glo products are free from talc, perfumes and chemical dyes allowing those with dry, oily or sensitive skin to enjoy their makeup without having to worry about a thing!

It Improves Tone & Texture

So, no matter what glo product you decide on, you will always be getting some form of sun shield (preventing wrinkles, which is always a plus in our book!)
