Full face Laser Resurfacing

The one procedure that can turn back the clock for your face and actually change the texture of your skin is the CO 2 laser resurfacing procedure. It's the most agressive of the facial lasers, but it gives you the greatest result as well. You can spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars on milder laser treatments and still end up with less improvement than one treatment with the co2 laser. No question about it you look pretty rough for 10-14 days, but the result is well worth the sacrifice. The new skin is smooth and fresh. Come in and see some of our photos that are very helpful in explaining the whole process and the result you can expect.

Eyelids

A patient came in to the office the other day and was very discouraged. She obviously took good care of herself--eating right, exercising, etc. But she said that not a day goes by that someone doesn't ask her if she got any sleep last night. Daily she gets comments about how tired she looks. Her problem is very heavy eyelids that make her look tired and even cranky. It's amazing how refreshed and rested and calm she looks with her lids pulled up. Upper eyelids can even be done in the office. Within a couple of weeks she'll look like she feels.

Do you have heavy eyelids?

Spring is springing

I love spring. It is always so cheering to the spirit to feel the sunshine on your face again after all the cold and clouds of the winter. Even though this winter has been one of the mildest on record--spring is very welcome. With the warmth comes turning our hearts to short sleeves, shorts , tank tops, swimming suits etc. As we don our new apparel we become aware that we may may have some "shape " issues that we've been covering up with heavy sweaters, coats, long sleeved shirts and (heaven forbid) sweat pants. It's not too late to address some of the lumps and bumps through liposuction and tightening, lifting procedures. Come talk to Dr. Sellers about what can be done. (Tax refund special --15% off Doctor fee of one procedure if scheduled and completed by April 30th)

Kids and Tummies

It's a wonderful thing to have a baby. A baby changes your life forever---mentally and physically. It seems like after you've given birth (even if your weight's the same as before) things do not seem to be in the same place. Breasts and tummies are never quite the same again. If your little bundle of joy has given you lots of extra stretchy skin on your tummy or your breasts are empty and droopy : do not despair. There are things that can be done to restore you to your pre-mother shape. Tummy tucks and liposuction are wonderful for giving you your waist back. Breasts can be lifted and shaped. Sometimes a woman needs a breast implant to give her that youthful fullness she misses. Don't be miserable. Check out wht Dr. Sellers could do for you.

Weight loss surgery

Losing a large amount of weight through a bariatric surgery such as lap banding or gastric bypass is an amazing accomplishment. You might be left though, with a problem that you hadn't anticipated, and that is lots of extra skin. Unfortunately losing weight gets rid of excess fat, but doesn't do anything for the extra skin. There are some wonderful surgeries that can be done for drooping abdominal skin, hanging breasts, arm "wings" etc. Something can be done to tighten up almost any part of the body that bothers you. So congratulations on the weight loss, now come see what can be done to finish the project.
