|
| on 2010/7/21 18:00:00 (120 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- Cosmetic plastic surgeon Dr. Kenrick Spence, MD, FACS (spencemd.com) is expanding his facial rejuvenation offerings through his Orlando medical day spa, Hillcrest Aesthetic Institute. In addition to the full range of surgical options Dr. Spence offers at his plastic surgery practice, he now offers exciting nonsurgical options in Orlando for facial rejuvenation with no downtime. "In my many years of experience as a plastic surgeon, I have learned that cosmetic surgery is not necessarily for everyone," says Dr. Spence. "Today's facial rejuvenation patient can look years younger without surgery thanks to recent advances in cosmetic products and skin treatments in Orlando at our medical spa."
Recognizing the growing demand for nonsurgical "age management" solutions, Dr. Spence created the Hillcrest Aesthetic Institute."The Hillcrest Aesthetic Institute combines the latest products and treatments with the skills and experience of highly trained medical professionals, all in a beautiful, state of the art facility," says Dr. Spence. One of the most exciting options for Dr. Spence's patients is a "no downtime" facelift, which typically combines Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments, chemical peels, and injectable treatments such as dermal fillers and BOTOX in Orlando. Dr. Spence works with each patient to determine which combination of treatments will work best for their skin type, as well as their particular age-related concerns. "For optimal age management, you have to start with the right diagnosis, options and guidance," explains Dr. Spence. "I am passionate about helping our patients achieve healthier, more beautiful skin through comprehensive care. We combine reparative, restorative, and preventative measures for optimal results."

Health, Fitness and Drugs : Cosmetic Surgery Practice in Fresno Offers New Technique
|
| on 2010/7/21 17:40:00 (91 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- Fresno cosmetic surgeon Dr. Quita Lopez (www.aestheticlasercenter.com) is now offering a more natural facial rejuvenation technique as an alternative to injectable fillers and fat transfers. The technique, called Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), has been used by other fields in medicine to accelerate the healing process after injury. Now, it's being used by this local cosmetic surgeon to restore the skin's appearance by increasing the skin's natural collagen production, making the skin look younger, firmer and more even. "My goal is to bring the latest cosmetic procedures to my patients," Dr. Lopez explains. "That's why I'm very excited to offer Platelet Rich Plasma rejuvenation. The process is safe, non-invasive and effective. No incisions need to be made and it's a great alternative for those who want results that look very natural."
Dr. Lopez recommends PRP rejuvenation to her patients who are considering cosmetic surgery in Fresno in part because the treatment utilizes the patient's own blood, thereby negating any allergy or infection concerns. A platelet-rich gel is specially prepared and then injected into the face, hands or other regions being treated. Platelets play a large roll in the body's natural healing process, so when injected under damaged skin, they naturally work to regenerate the tissue. Ultimately, the skin begins to repair itself with visible results in as little as 3 weeks and the final results occurring about 3 months after the procedure. "The process is not as immediate as some other cosmetic treatments," notes Dr. Lopez. "But the results do last and the recovery is easy. Some patients may experience some swelling afterwards, but this is only temporary. One treatment can last a long time, but patients will need to have further injections down the line to maintain the results."

Banking, Money and Finance : Financial Life Planning Guru George Kinder Moving to London: Will Promote New Planning Approach and Registered Life Planner Designation in UK and Europe
|
| on 2010/7/21 17:00:00 (116 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- Financial Life Planning pioneer George Kinder will be moving from America to London for an extended stay beginning August 1, 2010. Mr. Kinder is founder and president of the Kinder Institute of Life Planning (KinderInstitute.com). The Institute offers a series of Financial Life Planning programs. Additionally, the Institute confers the Registered Life Planner designation to graduates who successfully complete its curriculum. The Institute's programs have generated considerable interest amongst the UK financial community. Mr. Kinder's move to the UK is a direct response to the increased demand for financial Life Planning information and training in the UK and Europe. When contacted at his US home outside of Boston, Massachusetts, Kinder sounded most enthusiastic about his upcoming move.
"I think the UK is among the world's leaders in responding to the global financial crisis by forging ahead with initiatives to bring greater fairness and transparency to the financial industry," Kinder said. "In my view, the Financial Life Planning approach is key to a renaissance of trust in the profession, and UK advisers seem to agree. They are showing considerable interest in financial Life Planning methods which fit so well with the new RDR regime. London is emerging as a leader of the Life Planning movement, and I'm very excited to be able to spend more concentrated time helping to make that happen." Clinton Askew, Director at Citywide Financial Partners, attended Kinder's advanced workshop in May and returned with glowing reviews. "For advisors used to dealing with the very best investment ideas, George Kinder's EVOKE course takes the client conversation to a whole new level," Mr. Askew said. "In the weeks since completing the course the quality of conversations I have been having with clients has changed fundamentally. Clients I thought I knew well have opened about their thoughts and feelings in ways that have been astounding and inspirational. I am totally enthusiastic about this course and the benefits it will have for me and my clients."

Real Estate, Home & Garden : Real Estate Applications For Mobile Phones Enhance Home Buying, Says Cedar Park JB Goodwin Agent Rocky Breon
|
| on 2010/7/21 16:40:00 (90 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- The iPhone and other mobile devices are changing the landscape of real estate. JB Goodwin Realtor Rocky Breon says some applications for the phones are helpful, but will not replace a real live estate agent. "The rollout of new iPhone mobile apps out on the market can really empower and add to a home buyer's experience," says Breon. "They can complement the process when a person also uses a qualified real estate agent." A number of the applications are free, such as Zillow Real Estate Search. With this app, a potential home buyer can find homes for sale or rent as they walk or drive through a particular neighborhood. The application lets an individual filter search results by price, number of bedrooms, and more, and people can also save their searches and email or share homes on Facebook and Twitter.
"This can be a helpful tool for people curious about what is available in a certain area," Breon said. Other iPhone real estate applications that aid in a home search are those that calculate the financial end of home buying or renting. While it costs a couple of bucks, Home Buying Power lets the consumer find out what they can afford to buy and how much their mortgage will be.
