Thankfully, our dear friend Kathie Dolgin, aka High Voltage, has made it her life mission to teach healthy lifestyle and fitness principles, originally reserved for the rich and famous to children in under served neighborhoods. Dolgin, has developed a groundbreaking educational and fitness empowerment program called, Energy UP that helps children change the way they view food, motivates them to adopt healthier lifestyles, and boosts their self-esteem. Its mission is to fight teenage obesity and prevent diabetes, along with other diseases associated with poor nutrition. The program’s results (documented in medical studies) have been remarkable.  Participants have lost weight, gained self-esteem, and improved their emotional and social development.

Let me brag for a moment. I am vegetarian and amateur athlete. I don’t smoke, I drink in moderation, and yes I make sure I have plenty of water each day. Nevertheless, it took time to establish healthy habits and make it a part of my everyday life, and I did it in baby steps and so can you. Vow to walk at least once per week and build from there.  Take measures to cut processed foods one meal at a time. Keep a journal to help you keep track and pinpoint what needs to be worked on,  and don’t  forget to reward yourself for making progress, like buying those jeans you thought you could never wear or sneaking in a cat nap on a Sunday afternoon.  You owe it to yourself to feel great and most importantly if you get started today; you will age youthfully. Now isn’t that an incentive to get started?

There is nothing like getting that unwelcomed anti-compliment.  “You look tired.”

At one time, a good night’s rest would have wiped that exhausted look right off your face. Now not as much. Why you may ask? Well, kiddo we will give it to you straight. Unfortunately, your eyes are not the windows for your soul. If they were you would look like the age you feel inside instead of a reflection of your advancing maturity.

Thankfully, we all have the option these days to age youthfully. Dr Stephen Bracci’s trademarked EyeRise procedure restores the contours around the eyes that age has taken away.  Using Juvederm, a medical cosmetic filler, eye bags, hollowness, and dark circles are quickly erased leaving the patient with a fresher more youthful-looking appearance. And the best news is, the treatment requires little to no downtime.  This is because we skip the sharp needles and use micro cannulas instead, which provides superior results that last for up to one year, while greatly reducing the risk of bruising and swelling.  So are you tired of being told you look tired? Give us a call for a free consultation.

Hey the proof is in the pudding (so to speak); just in case you missed it,  check out this before and after!

4)    Do people ask if you are okay because they think you look stressed when you feel relaxed?

5)    Are your eyes starting to look “sunken”

6)    Are the lines that start at the outer corners of the nose and meet down towards the chin noticeable deeper?

7)    Are your little smile related eye crinkles actually becoming crows feet?

8)    Are your lips looking deflated?

9)   Does lipstick bleed into those tiny vertical lines above your lip when you apply it?

Blogger  Sharon Haver recently realized that it takes more than good habits to maintain a fresh youthful visage.  So she turned to Verve Medical Cosmetics to get the skinny on Thermage, an incision-free device that reduces the tell-tale signs of aging skin by stimulating new collagen growth, which tightens the skin. Could this be the cure for droops, sags, and turkey neck? Find out by clicking here.

Over the counter creams and anti-aging potions can’t replace the major cause of wrinkles—volume.  Non-surgical injectable fillers replace what time has taken away by plumping up the skin.  Adding Botox ® Cosmetic to the mix will relax muscles that cause deep furrows enhancing your results. Best of all, after a free consultation, each procedure takes minutes to perform and in most cases results are instantaneous with little to no downtime.  So now that you are a little smarter, lets turn back the hands of time.
