Botox or Dysport ?

Botox or Dysport ?

Every day I’m asked the same Question…. Which is better, Botox or Dysport?

I think you should know that they’re both practically the same thing. The only difference I’ve noticed is that Dysport works faster and lasts longer. This is my opinion from experience of course.

It’s also 50 dollars cheaper “per area”. Dysport gives you a $50 rebate for trying it for your first time.

It basically ends up costing $175 per area after your rebate is mailed back  from Dysport. Yes, Incredible savings but there’s more!!!! If you wait 3 months after your first Dysport Session, you can get another $50 rebate for sticking with Dysport for your second treatment. Sounds impossible but it’s true!

They’re so confident that you’ll love it that they’ll pay you twice! Who does that?

Smart Savings for Dysport users. These are the little secrets of the medical world. My philosophy is, everything’s replaceable and the competition creates better product for the future.

With that said, there are people that want to play it safe and stay with Botox and others really want the best deal. This doesn’t mean that quality doesn’t matter. It always matters!

For instance, it’s good to have Restylane and Juvederm which are also the same thing. One is distributed by Medicis and the other, Allergan. They’re both hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. Again.. one is a bit more expensive than the other but they’ll both give you fabulous results!

weight loss

weight loss

Here’s a topic that most in America can relate to, Weight loss.

Where do I begin? My mom Amalia still tells me about the days they used to eat at 10pm just to get ready to go out after. Can you imagine that? Talk about tight jeans. Especially all the meat and rice they ate daily. But no, their jeans fit perfectly. Nothing too tight, nothing wrong at all. Twiggy is what they all looked like but didn’t even need to try. This is so unfair to me. I look at photos of her and just don’t get it.

So we moved to America and everyone started filling up a bit.Gradually filling up, she had to donate her jeans to good will. I want you to know that I’ve done my own research , on myself of course. What makes America FAT???? We love Freedom but help us stop eating, please!

Cellulite Body Treatments in Los Angeles

The only difference between how my mother ate are the hormones we inject in our meat. Injected chickens and beef are part of the problem… a LARGE part. Do we need to eat that massive block of meat? Or the Chicken that looks like a turkey. I call them Churkeys.

Also, the pesticides used on fruits and Vegetables. Here’s a great tip, Eat Organic. CLICK HERE TO SEE WHY

So if you read that incredible article, you’ll know why my mom was thin and healthy back in the day. It’s not that difficult at all. It’s easier than you can imagine.

So the time has come to say bye- bye to expensive Laser treatments. In case you wonder why, It’s because our laser works on all skin types safely and effectively. My feeling is that everyone should have the option to be Hair free!

The world is changing and we must change with the times. Our nurses are just the best!  Nurse Rita and Nurse Linda are not only  comfortable to be around but they’re both nurturing mothers so you’ll feel right at home. In this day and age, Quality is what patients look for and quality we deliver.

Laser Discounts, 25% off the entire year.. Members only!

Shave the night before, and you do not need to numb unless you’re getting a Full Playboy  Bikini Laser. Also, If you’re getting your back lasered, I say numb it gentlemen. Why bite our nice pillows, just numb the pain. We know it’s a sensitive area.

Other than that, it’s a piece of cake. Great laser options are, Underarms, Bikini, Back & Shoulders and Lip and Chin. The people that book Full legs are the luckiest though. These spontanious folks wear their bathing suits under their clothes just in case the sun comes out. Yup, I know it.

Playboy bikini Laser 25% off if you’re a member!

Ventura Boulevard

Ventura Boulevard

What do people search for on the Internet? Women usually search for spa services and men type in  massage. That’s what I think at least.

I was just over the hill for a doctors appointment and I realized how happy I am in the valley. I don’t understand why anyone would want to look for street parking and fight the traffic at the same time.

Ventura Boulevard lady.

Other than the best hairdresser on the planet Chassi at Cush Salon, I just can’t think of driving up Laurel Canyon to Robertson for any other reason.

Best stores on the Boulevard

We almost got washed away by the city’s lovely underground pipes but it’ll take a bigger explosion to get rid of our block. We’re very excited to get Le Pain back…we’re counting the days.

Yoga, Sushi and Crossroads “Recycled” clothing is about all I need to survive. Oh and Lulus coffee shop. What would we do without you? We depend on you when we’re starving!

The Counter has the best burgers in the world. “We think they add something special to it”….says Emo. If you can’t make it to Paris then I suggest California Canteen restaurant. Lynne and Tina time always. I think we’ve been canteening for about 13 years now. Yum!

I got off track for a bit, food does that to me. Come in for a tour of Belle Visage Day spa. We’d love to show you around.
