Make That List and Check It Twice: Why Fillers Make the Perfect Holiday Gift

Monday, 30 November 2015 by admin
Injectable Fillers

Injectable Fillers long islandShopping for your significant other can sometimes leave you feeling like you don’t really know the person at all or that you’d much rather be at home watching your favorite TV show. This holiday season don’t let the spirit of gift giving suddenly turn into a burden. If your significant other wants to look and feel younger but they just haven’t taken the plunge, consider giving them the gift of fillers.

What are fillers?

Facial fillers are products that contain ingredients like collagen,  hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxyl apatite. Typically injected into your skin by using a fine needle, these fillers work to target fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing out your skin and giving you a more youthful looking appearance.

What are fillers used for?

There are tons of facial fillers available on the market that are designed to treat a variety of problem areas including the forehead, around the eyes, around the mouth, the lips, and even around the cheekbones. Depending on the problem area that your significant other has, they can sit down with the doctor during their consultation and decide what areas they would like to target.

Are they permanent?

The great thing about gifting your significant other facial fillers for Christmas is the fact that they aren’t permanent. In fact, facial fillers typically last anywhere from 3-12 months, which means that if for some reason your significant other wasn’t happy with the results, they don’t have to keep them for very long.

Are there adverse side effects?

The worst thing you can picture when gifting your loved one facial fillers is them returning from the doctor’s office with a severe allergic reaction. However, the facial fillers that we use are FDA approved and shouldn’t cause any adverse reactions. However, if your loved one experiences an increasing amount of swelling or itching, have them call our office right away.

Gift the gift of a more youthful glow and appearance this holiday season with facial fillers. To learn more about facial fillers or to schedule an appointment, contact our office today!

Just Got a Tummy Tuck? How to Still Enjoy Your Thanksgiving Feast

Sunday, 15 November 2015 by admin
Tummy Tuck

Tummy Tuck long islandIf you recently got an abdominoplasty or more commonly referred to as a tummy tuck, you know what it feels like to have both a large and loose stomach and a tight and toned one. With Thanksgiving just around the corner, you might be worried that you’ll eat too much and start gaining weight back, however, by following the tips below, you can ensure that you don’t gain weight while still enjoying your favorite Thanksgiving dishes.

  1. Load Up a Small Plate

Although it might be tempting to out eat your favorite brother or teenage son, start small on Thanksgiving. Instead of piling your plate a mile high, try adding small portions to your plate instead. Likely, you’ll feel full off of these smaller portions and won’t have to feel the regret— or extra weight— later on.

  1. Watch the Carbs

Thanksgiving is the last day you want to have to worry about watching your carb intake. However, by avoiding things like that extra dinner roll or those loaded mashed potatoes, you can help cut out a lot of unnecessary calories that your body really doesn’t need.

  1. Treat Yourself

Although it’s important to make sure you don’t eat your own weight in Thanksgiving food, it’s also important to treat yourself. However, treating yourself doesn’t mean anything and everything in site. In fact, it simply means choosing your favorite Thanksgiving dish that’s probably loaded with butter and cream and enjoying every bite to the fullest. The last person you want to be on Thanksgiving is the person munching on a celery stalk.

Just because you got a tummy tuck doesn’t mean that you should revert back to some old eating habits. In fact, it’s more important now than ever to watch what you eat and only indulge a little. By following the above three tips you can help to maintain your new and slim physique while still enjoying Thanksgiving with your family.
