SUMMERTIME IS BODY TIME

After a long winter and a chilly spring, it's finally heating up outside, and that means fewer clothes and more pool time. Getting our bodies ready for summer is at the top of almost everyone's to-do list. At VITAHL, we have some great body solutions, both surgical and non-surgical, that can help you get in shape for summer fun. You can tackle that unwanted fat with one or a combination of treatments:

VASER Lipo and SmartLipo remove fat from the inside, without the harsher techniques required by traditional liposuction. These procedures are performed under local anesthesia in our office, and most patients are back to their normal routines after a few days.

Not ready for surgery, but still want to get bikini ready? VASER Shape uses ultrasound technology to contour your body from the outside, breaking down fat tissue. This fat is then absorbed by your body and excreted naturally.

Tired of cellulite? Try SmoothShapes, a treatment that rejuvenates collagen and improves the appearance of dimpled skin. This is a painless procedure that uses contoured rollers and vacuum massage.

Want it all? You can combine SmartLipo, VASER Lipo, VASER Shape and SmoothShapes in a multitude of ways to get the best outcome for your body- shaping desires. Or, if you're looking for a more dramatic change, such as a breast augmentation or tummy tuck, schedule a consultation with our on-staff, board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Jason Martin. Please call our office today at 303.388.7380 for a consultation to help you decide which body treatment is right for you.

Sincerely,

Dr. Humes

Incredible Injectables: What You Need to Know

When it comes to eliminating wrinkles, lines and deep folds, injectables can offer great results. We understand that the choices can be confusing and that is why our skilled injectors at VITAHL will walk you through the right product for your skin type and facial structure in order to implement the improvement you want. We want you to be pleased with the results and to feel like together we’ve achieved your best possible YOU!

When starting, or continuing a regiment of injectables, here are a few things to keep in mind:

Set a schedule and stick to it. The best results are based on sticking to a schedule. Be consistent with injectables and wait until the results are wearing off before injecting again. That’s the best way to achieve natural looking results.

Be conservative when starting an injectable program. You’ve probably seen the Sculptra television commercial talking about how you didn’t age overnight, and you shouldn’t anti-age overnight. We agree that the best approach is to start conservatively and build on the results over time.

Temporary fillers are best. We don’t offer permanent fillers because we believe temporary fillers look more natural. That doesn’t mean you won’t get long lasting results with temporary fillers, you will! But permanent fillers can create permanent problems.


Injectables are a great solution for fighting the signs of aging, but sometimes a comprehensive approaching including a facelift is the best solution. Dr. Martin, our board certified plastic surgeon, can discuss surgical options for you. Both injectables and surgical options can be explored and discussed during your private consultation at VITAHL.

Sincerely,

Dr. Humes

EVERYTHING EYES

It is said that the eyes are the window to the soul. In fact, the eyes are so much more. They can entice someone, they can give away our true feelings, they are a focal point of the face, and they are an area that we often see age much too soon. Some of us have always had heavy eyes, where our upper lids seem to hide any eyeshadow we might apply, even from a very young age. Some of us have puffy eyes that are genetic or that have worsened with age. And some of us have wrinkly eyes from smiling, aging or squinting in the sun.

VITAHL has been treating eyes since the day we opened. We offer BOTOX, not only as a treatment for our existing wrinkles, but also to prevent new wrinkles. We offer lasers to help stimulate collagen and tighten the skin. And, we offer Latisse to grow your lashes longer, thicker and darker. We see great results from these treatments, but we want to be able to do more. With the addition of board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Jason Martin, to the VITAHL family, we now offer a cutting-edge treatment, FusionBleph™.

FusionBleph™ treats wrinkles, heavy eye lids, and puffiness in one, office-based treatment. FusionBleph™ is a treatment pioneered by Dr. Martin in which traditional upper and lower eye lifts are combined with laser resurfacing of the skin around the eye. This treatment is done in the office and with about a week of downtime, you can take years off your face. To find out if you are a candidate for FusionBleph, schedule your consultation with Dr. Martin by calling 303.388.7380.

HOW TIME DOES FLY!

I cannot believe that the holiday season is fast approaching! It feels like only a few weeks ago, it was June first. We were all looking forward to the heat of the summer sun, and we were planning our summer vacations. Now, the leaves are changing, and Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away. The next thing we know, we will be celebrating the New Year. As we look towards Thanksgiving, I find myself thinking about how much there is to be thankful for in 2010.



It has been a great year for VITAHL. As many of you know, we celebrated five years in business this past September, and we also welcomed Dr. Jason Martin, a renowned plastic surgeon, to the practice. With the addition of Dr. Martin to the VITAHL family, we now offer both office-based Vaser Lipo and Smart Lipo Body Contouring, which have been met with great enthusiasm. In his short time at VITAHL, Dr. Martin is already in high demand for office-based liposuction and Blepharoplaties (upper and lower eyelid surgery), as well as full face and body cosmetic surgery. We are so happy to have him on board, and I truly enjoy having another doctor in the office who broadens the treatments we offer at VITAHL. Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate VITAHL’S fifth anniversary and to welcome Dr. Martin to the VITAHL family. It was a great party! Click here for some photos.



This year has also brought to VITAHL one of our strongest teams of employees – some have been with us for a year or more, and we have added a few new staff members that we have been so happy to welcome to the VITAHL family. We are a cohesive unit, and I want you all to be able to get to know this staff. We will be introducing them to you, one by one, in the New Year.


Thank you to all our loyal patients for helping to make 2010 a year to remember!
