Recent studies have revealed what we’ve known for many years: Botox(tm) helps migraine headaches. Although the precise method by which this occurs is not completely known, a very real decrease in the intensity and frequency of migraine headaches has been seen when patients are treated with Botox(tm). This most recent report indicated that patients with a “crushing” or “eye-popping” form of migraines benefited the most.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, 2.5 million Botox(tm) procedures were performed last year.
So, just in case your friends all think you’re coming in for Botox(tm) for your wrinkles, you can certainly remind them that it works for migraines too!
Until next time…..

As techniques advance in the area of facial rejuvenation, we are discovering more and more to do without a knife. Dang!
A wide variety of non-surgical treatments continue to be developed and are yielding very nice results, providing some patients with options other than surgery. Botox(tm) and Juvederm(tm) remain the most popular non-surgical treatments for facial rejuvenation, but newer peels and lasers are rapidly catching up.
Check out the info at our Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Society website on one of these newer “tricks”: http://www.surgery.org/media/news-releases/nonsurgical-technique-can-take-years-off-the-appearance-of-aging-eyes.
Of course, you are always welcome to come in and let us have a look and see what we recommend for your specific complaints.
Until next time….

Here’s another wonderful reason to think about having us perform your breast augmentation. www.natrelle.com/offer.
The company that provides our breast implants also makes Botox(TM), you made have heard of it;), and Latisse(TM). Latisse(TM) is a prescription medication that encourages the growth of longer and fuller eyelashes. My patients who have been using it have noticed a very appreciable change. Like Botox(TM), it is hard to find a patient who didn’t love the improvement from using this product. You really should check out the website, www.latisse.com for more info.
Now here’s the great part! This company is making available to us a “bonus” gift for our patients that undergo breast augmentation using their silicone implants. This gift includes a one month supply of Lattise(TM), a bottle of Vivite’(TM) – a skin rejuvenation product -a compact travel mirror and a nifty case to hold it all in. The estimated value of this package is $300.
One word of caution, this offer lasts until 6/30/10 or until “supplies last.” We’ve already had lots of patients take advantage of this bonus, so you may want to consider this before they’re all gone.
Until next time….
