We as women have spent our lives taking care of others – our husbands, children, aging parents, friends, siblings, neighbors, and even our pets – they all seem to take first place before we even THINK about taking care of ourselves. Ladies, we need to now focus on the woman that keeps it all going – YOU!!!

Below are eight easy steps to Feel your Best:
1. Consider Bio Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy –Some of the symptoms this will alleviate include irritability, mood swings, depression, fatigue, low sex drive, weight gain, and the list goes on!
2. Get a Spectracell –a nutritional test to measure 33 different vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants in your cells.
3. Consider a Food Allergy Test – If you suffer from weight gain, headaches, fatigue, bloating, gas, cramping, reflux, acne, etc., find out what your body is sensitive to and eliminate those items.
4. Eat 5-6 times /day
5. Drink 8-10 glasses of water per day
6. Sleep 7-8 hours per night
7. Exercise 4-5 times per week
8. Reserve one hour of personal time each day

Here are some ways to Look your Best:

1. Non-invasive laser treatments
a. If you pull back your skin every time you are in front of a mirror, think TITAN SKIN TIGHTENING. A non-invasive laser procedure with NO down time to lift jowls, neck, cheeks, abdomen, breasts, etc.

b. For tone and texture issues with large pores, sun damage, fine wrinkles, consider Laser genesis or Limelight photofacials; if you don’t mind a little down time, try my favorite, Pearl Resurfacing!

c. For deep wrinkles, acne scarring and for an eyelift with surgery, my recommendation is Pearl Fractional – this is a WOW!

d. Wrinkle Fillers – Juvederm and Radiesse are safe and effective fillers for Nasolabial folds, lips (juvederm only), and facial sculpting without surgery.

e. Botox – Great for frown lines, crows feet and forehead lines – gives you a very natural, rested look if done correctly by an expert.

f. Facials / Peels / Microderms – For the quick pick-me-up and maintenance of healthy skin.

Ladies, you deserve the BEST. Take time out to educate yourselves about what is best for your bodies, minds and souls! Go to an expert and get involved in your care … whether it is for wellness or aesthetic. You are your best asset. Give yourself time! The best gift we can give to our families is taking care of ourselves … only by doing this, will we be able to care for them!

Yours in Wellness,
