Spring has officially sprung! That means it’s time to spring into action to get ready for the summer’s beach and poolside fun. Here are a few things to consider as you work on getting ready to bare it all (almost) this summer:

Fitness

Whether it’s Pilates, running, yoga, walking, or a little bit of everything, find whatever works for you and get into it! Here are some ideas from Fitness magazine for getting that body healthy and bikini-ready. Be sure not to overdo it or make any drastic changes without consulting your doctor first. And most of all, have fun!

Skin care

The harsh conditions of winter can leave us with layers of dull, dry skin that is definitely in need of a little TLC. Freshen your skin care routine, switching to a lighter moisturizer for the warmer weather. Make sure to gently exfoliate to slough off dead skin cells and uncover healthier cells. Laser skin resurfacing, offered at Vinings Surgery Center, gently and precisely removes microscopic layers of skin, tightening sagging skin and stimulating new collagen growth.

Laser hair removal

Who wants to spend time shaving to get ready to put on that swimwear? Laser hair removal, also available at Vinings Surgery Center, is an effective and efficient means of long-term hair removal. A highly concentrated beam of light vaporizes troublesome hair follicles to eliminate or significantly impede the hair’s regrowth.

Male Breast Reduction

For men who feel self-conscious about their appearance when shirtless, breast-reduction surgery can help. The procedure, performed by Dr. Colgrove, removes fat and or glandular tissue from the breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a chest that is flatter, firmer and better contoured.

For help with any other “problem areas” you may be concerned about, there are other helpful procedures available.

Enjoy this time of renewal and refreshing, and have fun getting ready for summer!

Yesterday’s free lunch-and-learn seminar focusing on breast augmentation gave attendees the valuable opportunity to ask Dr. Colgrove and his staff questions about the most popular procedure at Vinings Surgery Center.

During the seminar, Dr. Colgrove offered in-depth information about breast augmentation and specific types of implants. He explained the differences between silicone and saline implants, as well as the pros and cons of each type. Dr. Colgrove also spoke to participants about what to expect in the recovery and healing process following the surgery, emphasizing the importance of stretching, massage, and the use of high-quality support bras in the weeks after the procedure is done. He introduced the group to his nursing staff, which is always on hand to answer questions, address concerns and walk patients through the entire process.

Curt Trogdon of Allergan, maker of the Natrelle® silicone implant, was on hand to give attendees in-depth information about the implants. Attendees were reminded that, for a limited time, patients who select Natrelle® implants receive a free Botox® treatment or Latisse® for themselves and a friend.

Dr. Colgrove also gave personal consultations and evaluations to each attendee, giving each woman all the information she would need to help her in making a decision about breast augmentation.

Check back often for more information on upcoming seminars. We’d love to hear from you about seminar topics you’d like to see. Let us know!

Rosacea

Suffering with rosacea, or skin prone to redness and swelling, can be frustrating. One of the solutions to managing rosacea is to find out what specific factors are contributing to inflammation. An article by Melissa Schwarzchild, M.D. published in The Health Journal explains the triggers for rosacea and how to combat them. Heat is one of the most common triggers. Exposure to high temperatures outdoors will intensify your rosacea. Wearing hats and applying sunscreen daily is a good way to protect yourself.

Schwarzchild also notes the many sufferers of rosacea have sensitive skin. Using a mild cleanser and sticking to hypoallergenic facial creams and makeup also can aid in the prevention of further skin irritation. For a more permanent solution, Schwarzchild recommends rosacea patients turn to a cosmetic surgeon for laser treatments.

These gentle, quick procedures target broken capillaries and dilated blood vessels to will significantly reduce redness and create a more even skin tone. These types of treatments are available at Vinings Surgery Center, and specialists are on hand to answer any questions.

FotoFacial RF® treatment for Rosacea and More

FotoFacial RF® treatment applies a unique combination of controlled heat and light (Syneron® Aurora™ laser) to improve the appearance of age spots, freckles, and sun spots. This treatment can improve skin texture, reduce redness and rosacea symptoms, decrease the appearance of unwanted facial veins, and diminish the visibility of enlarged pores. FotoFacial RF® treatments must be performed in a cycle that corresponds with your body’s own rejuvenation processes with time in between treatments to allow your skin to heal itself.  Typically, FotoFacial RF® patients see the best skin rejuvenation results after a series of five treatments spaced one month apart.
