“I love the effects of my Ulthera, it just seems to get better and better”

A customized treatment plan and meticulous technique enhances the Ulthera experience and results. Ulthera involves imaging of the tissue and subsequently seeing before treating, therefore it is imperative to insure adequate coupling of the Ulthera transducer to the skin. When coupling occurs the magic happens. Precise focused thermal coagulation points are delivered to the targeted tissues setting off a response of healing which ultimately results in an increase in collagen. This collagen is vital to improvement in texture, firmness , and lifting which affects the contour of the face lending to a rejuvenated youthful appearance. After the procedure, the collagen remodeling process continues for several months resulting in a natural lifting and increase in the skin’s elasticity. All with no downtime!

Whether it is a surgical face lift or a no-downtime rejuvenating Ulthera, our most important goal is your satisfaction and for you to get the results that you desire. Contact our office to learn more about Ulthera.

Ulthera is Raising More than a Few Eyebrows is a post from: Dan Mills M.D.

Dr. Mills always notices if we get too much sun! He does a great job of educating his staff and patients about the danger of sun damage to our appearance and our health. I wear my favorite sunscreen in the world, SkinCeuticals Physcial Fusion UV Defense SPF 50. It has a tint that lets me skip out on wearing any foundation or mineral powders for a carefree day at the beach without having to reapply too often. It also makes me look a lot tanner than I am which is always a plus when you’re on the beach! Not to mention, in order to get true UVA defense you need a sunscreen with Titanium and Zinc Oxide in them. They are the only two things actually proven to deflect UVA rays. They are the two top ingredients in Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50! In order to get the most out of my skin care I always apply an antioxidant serum underneath my sunscreen each morning. The combination of the two is a match made in heaven and it creates the best protection for your skin a girl could ask for!

Emily’s Suncreen Suggestions is a post from: Dan Mills M.D.

Triglycerides are a type of fat found in your blood. Normal range is less than 150. Your body uses them for energy. You need some triglycerides for good health, but triglycerides can raise your risk of heart disease. High triglcerides are usually caused by other conditions such as OBESITY, poorly controlled diabetes, underactive thyroid, kidney disease, eating more calories then you burn and drinking a lot of alcohol.

HDL or high density lipoprotein is commonly referred to as “good cholesterol”. HDL levels in the body are supposed to be fairly high. HDL helps excess cholesterol return to the liver for excretion through gastrointestinal system. HDL is good because it aids in the removal of cholesterol that can block arteries and reduce blood flow. Smoking, OBESITY, and sedentary activities are directly linked to low blood HDL levels. WEIGHT LOSS, smoking cessation and exercise will raise HDL levels.
