There’s no such thing as too smooth when it comes to your skin

January is the time of year to begin getting in shape for spring. Bare arms and legs are alluring; hairy and unshaven, well, that’s not pretty.

Start now to achieve smooth, hairless arms and legs. Eliminate shaving with laser hair removal.

Professional aestheticians, highly trained laser techs, can remove unwanted hair without pain with IPL Laser-Intense Pulsed Light Laser.

Laser hair removal is your best solution to get rid of your unwanted hair fast. Ideally, the treatment takes repeat treatments over a period of 6 weeks to two months. That’s because hair follicles on the body have growing cycles and not all are on the same cycle.

To achieve the best results Dr. Jeffrey Raval, owner and medical director of Rocky Mountain Laser Aesthetics, recommends that patients prepare for treatment:

  • avoid tanning
  • avoid electrolysis, waxing and tweezing for 4 to 6 weeks prior to laser hair removal treatment.

It is okay to shave a few days prior to treatment.

As in anything-from planning a vacation to planning for hair removal-the preparation can make the difference between successful or less-than-successful results. You wouldn’t start out on a road trip without a map to your destination; so why compromise the results of your hair removal treatment by engaging in things that will undermine the results…like tanning or tweezing, asks Dr. Raval.

Fat vs. Fresh

As we get older, our faces lose volume.  Being particularly skinny when this volume loss occurs can emphasize the effects of aging.  It is a time you won’t mind having a few extra pounds. But before you reach for that extra scoop of Haagen-Dazs, realize that according to the New York Daily News, it only applies to women over the age of 40.  A little extra fat in the face can make young women look older and older women look younger.

Dr. Jeffrey Raval can help women over 40 by restoring the lost volume in the face through use of injectable fillers.  This is a quick and minimally invasive procedure that can be performed in office with very little pain and recovery time.

“The analogy that tells the story best is the grape and the raisin,” says Dr. Raval who compares youthful, plump skin to a fresh grape. As the grape ages, it loses its volume and turns into a raisin. The same thing happens to the face, he explains, as it loses fat volume over time.

Fillers like Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm and Radiesse are injected into the skin, plumping it up and leaving the patient looking years young instantly
