Botox: If these wrinkles could talk
When she met his eyes this time there was a difference in the engagement. Every day for 30 years she woke up next to him, watched him laying there, and happily thought about making his morning brew. Would she put a little chocolate syrup in his coffee, or maybe salted carmel if she was feeling really perky. She would sit across from him at the table and actually watch for his response to the first sip. Most times he would inhale the steam coming off the cup, as if trying to guess how she flavored it. Then, after taking the first sip, she would see the tiniest smile play at his lips. Chocolate, just the way I like it, is the look he would give her back. Those were simpler times. Today she looked at him there was no coffee on the table and his gaze was averted. What was happening to them,she wondered?
I was seated behind the front desk when she walked into my office. A striking figure, filled with hope, and looking to make a change. She said she only had a brief period of time to spend with me in the office. She said she wanted to work on her looks, and then tackle some of the larger concerns regarding her relationship with her significant other. She wanted to look her best for something so important to her. We decided on Botox to relax deep forehead lines, and I recommended volume filler for the lower face, concentrating on the prominent laugh lines.
She left the office with increased self confidence. Before treatment the effects of constant
worry were apparent in her facial expression. She felt getting these treatments would enhance her appearance. We also spoke about specific nutrition and exercise plans to increase overall health.
Botox is $9 per unit at Lose It Right. Call to get yours ordered today.

iLipo the noninvasive alternative to liposuction!
For those of you who have been successful losing weight congratulations! For many who are able to lose weight there can often be the presence of resistant fat deposits on the belly, the love handles, and legs for example. If you have fat that you just can't get rid of there is hope. i-Lipo! What is this technology? Quite simply iLipo is an intelligent option for surgical liposuction. This is an incisionless, surgery free, anesthesia free, and hands free procedure with instant results, and no downtime! i Lipo, an FDA apporved device, uses an innovative technique taking advantage of cold laser that breaks down fat to small molecules that can make the fat exit through our natural body drainage system known as the lymphatic channels.
Expect at least 8 treatments per body part ideally two times per week over a 4 week period. iLipo is approved for men and women and the treatment area targets the fat layer just under the skin. iLipo does not create damage to skin, tissues, blood vessels, nerve endings or internal organs.
This treatment is 100% non invasive. Whereas surgical liposuction is expensive, invasive,and requires a certain amount of downtime, ilipo is non invasive, affordable and creates visible results with no downtime!

Dr. Candace has microneedling treatment at Lose It Right
Well, after I have watched so many of you have this procedure, and I have been so impressed with the results, I decided to have a facial rejuvenation treatment too! Medical microneedling is non laser skin resurfacing. This procedure is truly transformative, as you will experience skin brightening, improvement in skin tone, and texture as well, after just one treatment. After a topical anesthetic is applied to the skin, we place the microneedle on the face, and apply the device with a set of 12 tiny needles to the entire face, it does feel a bit like sandpaper is being rubbed on the skin. If you have a particular area of concern, we are also able to treat certain zones, such as vertical wrinkles around the lips, or crows feet.
After my treatment, \I experienced a mild tingly sensation which lasted a couple of hours, my skin was a little red after the treatment as well. A regenerative Vitamin A, and Colostrum cocktail was applied to my skin for cellular enhancement as well. All in all this was a good experience and a wonderful holiday treat! Be good to yourself, and be good to your skin. Thanks to Jennifer, our medical aesthetician for a great experience and fantastic results.

Medical microneedling will rejuvenate the skin! Lose It Right/Advanced Rejuvenation

Session 3 of 6 notice decrease wrinkling to cheek, neck, and jawline. |
The microneedling process incorporates healing of the skin through the creation of multiple micro injuries that are made with our disposable and sterile needle tips.
In the pictures above this woman is concerned with deep wrinkles. In the picture labeled session 3 of 6 notice how the skin has significantly less wrinkling, and the depth of the wrinkles is far less. In addition, note that the skin in sessions 3 of 6 is remarkably more supple, brighter looking, and generally more healthy in appearance.
What are the Benefits?
The benefits of micro-needling are a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. Micropen treatments also have a positive effect on hyper-pigmentation as well as on hypo-pigmentation, acne scars, traumatic scars and stretch marks and generally creates a fresher appearance or glow to the skin.

How is the procedure done?
A sterile needle-tip containing 12 tiny micro-needles is attached to the Micropen. Your skincare professional will apply a thin layer of topical gel to your skin and select the appropriate treatment depth based on your unique needs. Next, in a single motion, the pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding in one direction until the entire treatment area has been covered.

What does it Feel Like?
The feeling associated with the Micropen is similar to light sandpaper being moved across the skin. While some areas are more sensitive than others, the speed of the reciprocating needle tip reduces discomfort while the applied hydrating gel also makes the treatment more tolerable.

How long does the procedure take?The procedure takes 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the area treated.
What is the downtime?
Immediately after the treatment you will notice a bright redness to the skin.
The total healing time depends on the depth of needles used and the number of overlapping passes your skincare professional performs. On average, patients are red up to 2 to 4 days. Some patients heal completely in as little as 24 hours. Utilizing the Eclipse Skin Revive System™, or other quality skincare products, provided by your skincare provider, can help to speed up the healing process.

When will I see the results?
Patients notice an immediate “glow” to their skin. Visible changes to the skin develop over the course of several days and weeks. Results continue to improve up to 6 months after the treatment as collagen production continues.

How many treatments will I need?
Some patients only require a single treatment, once per year to achieve optimal results. However, it is recommended for most patients to receive a series of 2-3 treatments spaced about 6-8 weeks apart. For patients with deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks or acne scars it is recommended to receive 6-8 sessions at 6 week intervals.
