Unlocking Longevity Secrets from the Worlds Blue Zones

Unlocking Longevity: Secrets from the World’s Blue Zones

When we talk about living longer, the conversation often centers on one thing: longevity. But what if we told you that the goal shouldn’t be just about adding more years to your life, but about adding more life to those years? Recent discussions, including ones published by The New York Times, are questioning the very foundation of extreme longevity claims tied to famous regions known for their long-living residents, like Okinawa in Japan and Loma Linda in California. These areas, often dubbed “Blue Zones,” have become synonymous with longevity, but the truth behind these claims might not be as clear-cut as we think. The Myths Behind Extreme Longevity Okinawa, Loma Linda, and other Blue Zones are often highlighted in discussions about long life. However, a closer examination reveals that many of the impressive age records in these areas are based on flawed, incomplete, or even fraudulent data. One of the…

Sculptra®Aesthetic: One Way to Look Great, Not Fake

Good things come to those who wait. That is the case with Sculptra®Aesthetic; an injectable cosmetic that works like a derma filler overtime. Unlike Juvederm or RADIESSE, two very popular skin plumping options that provide immediate results, Sculptra®Aesthetic works slowly to gradually replace the collagen that time has taken away while reinforcing your skin’s structure. Many of our patients appreciate how this injectable cosmetic gradually and subtly corrects wrinkles while producing a refined and more youthful appearance that can last for up to two years. Sculptra® Aesthetic is perfect for correcting shallow to deep smile lines; marionette lines, and those dreaded chin wrinkles.  On average three injection sessions are needed over a three month period but sometimes one or two injections does the trick. It all depends on the current condition of your skin. To learn more about this treatment schedule a free consultation so we discuss the best treatment…

The Wrinkle Report: Marionette Lines

Marionette lines despite the playful name can make us look years beyond our real age. For those not in the know, these creases are the result of aging.  The lines resemble parentheses that frame the corners of your mouth and chin—think Howdy Doody and you get the idea (and if you are old enough to remember him, you just might have these annoying facial grooves). Now until March 23rd 2012, Verve Medical Cosmetics is making it a little easier to address those pesky creases with our “Marionette Lines Special”.  Got questions? Call today to book your complimentary consultation prior to the procedure so we can discuss the condition in detail with you:  (212) 888-3003. Don’t be a puppet head any longer.

Intentions for Prevention

We are now into the second month of the New Year, and I have to ask — how many of you stuck to that New Year’s resolution you made about eating better and exercising more? Show of hands please? Hmmm, I thought so. Okay, don’t beat yourself up. Good intentions can pave the way to great health if you take things one-step at a time. 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…

Eyerise Can Wipe That Tired Look Off Your Face

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…

How To Be A Younger Fresher You, Part Two

As we mentioned in our post on Tuesday, outside of medical cosmetics there are many things you can do to not only look your best but also look younger and healthier. Below are just a few more steps that anyone can do to start looking great at any age. Remember being told not to hunch when you were a child?  Well correct posture will keep your body aligned and healthy, makes you appear a few pounds lighter, plus projects an air of confidence. So sit and stand up straight, don’t hunch your shoulders (which can make you look eons older) and hold your head up high! We all know how important exercise is but for those who don’t work out much it can be intimidating.  You don’t have to go out and run a few miles at the crack dawn everyday. Just start working in some strength training and stretching…

How to be a Younger, Fresher You!

Outside of medical cosmetics there are many things you can do to not only look your best, but also look younger and healthier. Below are just a few steps that anyone can do to start looking great at any age.   You mother may have told you that in order to start the day right, you need to have a good night’s sleep. She was right! Your body, including your skin, needs at least 7-8 hours sleep in order to rejuvenate.  So don’t skimp on catching your zzzz’s, if you don’t feel refreshed, you won’t look refreshed!   First off, if you still smoke it is time to smell the fresh air! Not only is this unhealthy for you, but second hand smoke is detrimental to the people around you. Smoking can lead to many difference diseases plus it makes you look dreadful by rapidly aging the skin.   Let’s…

Freckles & Age Spots

Age sun spots are cute on Dalmatians, but when they appear on your face — well that’s another story. There are two types of “spots” that appear on our skin;  freckles and age spots. Both are evidence of sun damage. Freckles, as adorable as they might seem, are the result of too much sun in addition to having unevenly distributed melanin (the dark pigment in skin). Age spots on the other hand, are never charming.  As we get older our skin’s natural ability to fight off UV rays diminishes and unlike dainty freckles age spots appear as large brown or gray-ish splotches that leave the recipient with a dull, uneven complexion. Yuck. Thankfully there is plenty that can be done to restore the spotless luster to one’s skin. IPL Photofacial Laser is an efficient way to remove dots and splotches,  plus it is medical approved. For select patients a Retin…
