Seminar update!!!

Wednesday evening we held our seminar. We are attempting to hold about 3 a year. We had a wonderful turn out and I want to thank all for attending. Our guest speakers were phenomenal and very educational. A $500 product gift basket was the grand prize and donated by Heather, our SkinMedica Rep. All walked away with a little gift bag of goodies and great information about products and procedures. Congratulations to the prize winners!!!!!

Think outside the BOTOX box!

Yes, Botox is fabulous to minimize the lines around the eyes........the vertical ones on the forehead and especially "the elevens" in between the eyebrows. Did you know that Botox can also be used to soften those pesky lines above or below your lips? You will be amazed and elated to find out how simple it is. I have been using Botox in my lips for about a year now, and I am thrilled that those little (but very annoying) lines (thanks Mom) are no longer a concern. Start with upper lip first, so you can gage whether or not you like it. Expect certain things to be a bit more difficult at first, like saying peanut butter takes a bit of concentration, or whistling, ...... if you play a wind instrument this may not be a good idea for you. Want to know more? Either ask here or call the office at 813.949.5400. The pictures below are from one of our patients who was gracious enough to give me permission to use her lips:)

To the left is before, please note upper lip.

LIPS!! Beautiful, Succulent Lips

Top picture is before, bottom after.

I had so much fun working on these lips. Perfect shape, plump and oh so sexy!! Was so elated, I felt I should sign them....maybe just a tiny little initial bottom lip....right corner:) The filler used was Juvederm Ultra. I love working with Juvederm because it is always smooth and there is only minimal swelling.

Welcome!

I would like this blog to be an avenue to explain procedures, to foster interaction with my patients, and to allow for education for visitors. I plan to write this in a light heared tone, would like to have fun and maybe even start a little banter with other providers. I'd like this to be an open forum and hope all postings will be respectful. I want to thank my patients for the use of their images and their trust in me. I absolutely love what I do and it gives me great pleasure to create beauty and happiness. I consider myself blessed with an artful eye and apply it to my procedures. Please join me.
