Cosmetic Surgery FYI of the Season:

One of the most common changes as we age is the elasticity of our skin. The eyes are one of the more prominent areas that we notice sagging eyelids.  Did you know there is a very simple procedure that can correct this?  Blepharoplasty trims back excess skin and can give the patient a more youthful look. The procedure can also improve vision, since the extra skin can impede eyesight.

This procedure is very affordable and in some cases can be done in the office.  If this procedure sounds like a good fit for you, we invite you to schedule your complimentary consultation with our double board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Benjamin Lam. Click here to watch a short video as Dr. Gavin, Our Medical Director interviews Dr. Lam on this procedure. Stay Well!

Skincare Tip of the Month:

As we enter into the coldest season of the year, we can expect our skin to become unusually dull and dehydrated. However, by adapting a proper moisturizing and exfoliation regimen - we can replenish the moisture lost during these winter months. Micro-Buff Creme works to remove the dead skin cells that accumulate on the epidermis. Small crystals gently slough away the cells to reveal gorgeous, smooth skin.

Once the skin is exfoliated, moisturizers and serums will be able to penetrate much deeper into the skin layers. Our Lipid Drops help to lock in moisture by replenishing your skin's lipid barrier. As an added bonus, this product helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Just a small drop of this magical serum (applied separately or along with your daily moisturizer) brings back flawless, baby-soft skin!

It’s getting cooler here in the Lehigh Valley!  Cold weather can dry out the skin due to the lack of moisture in the air and dry indoor heat. Keep your skin hydrated with a well-formulated moisturizer targeted to your skin’s specific needs. 

Although the days are shorter and nights are longer, the harmful rays of the sun can still damage your skin, cause wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and worst of all skin cancer.  Always incorporate a sunscreen into your skincare routine no matter the season. 

Our Replenishing Sunblock SPF 36 is the perfect solution to combat both dryness, sun damage, and provide that imperative layer of protection.  For extra hydration, boost your routine with a serum like Vita Soothe, which will lock in moisture and repair photo damage.
