Skin tag removal

Skin tag removal

Hello again:) This subject isn’t a sexy one but here it goes.

Have you ever wondered what to do about that embarrassing wart? Most people don’t talk about it but warts on fingers, knees and the face are very common. We can remove it by using  the Lamprobe treatment. The great thing about this little gadget is that it’s instant gratification for most. Lamprobe uses heat to burn away unwanted growths  and Cryoprobe freezes them. I recommend this for all skin types. Whether you’re sensitive or not , you will  still get great results.  Not all warts, skin tags or broken capillaries are created equal so you may have to pop over a second time after the skin has healed. The technician first does a skin analysis but you can also have your treatment immediately after. Give yourself a total of 30 min at Belle Visage and you’ll be at the front desk ready to go home.

Lamprobe is $ 100 for a few little spots or $170 for a full treatment. Most women have skin tags or little blood spots on their tummy or under the brassiere line. This is the perfect treatment for it.

Cryoprobe is $175 for the treatment. Doesn’t matter how small or large the area is. They’re both fast and safe. Please make sure to give it between 5-10 days to fully heal. The area may become a bit darker and will then flake off on its own.

If you’d like to have the area numbed before hand, please come in 30 min prior to your appointment. I don’t think it’s necessary , but I’m a tough girl!

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.

Dysport injection

Dysport injections in Los Angeles

Not really, but it sure is effective. Our staff was injected yesterday and boy did it kick into gear fast.
As of recent,I heard that some people just have been “botoxing” for so long that it doesn’t make a difference on their face needing more units to relax the muscle. So here’s your cure to the little lines on your face. We can minimize it for you 6 days a week. They say it lasts longer than botox but I’ll let you know in October 09. By the way, it’s been around for many years in Europe but it just made it to the States.
All the same botox rules apply, don’t lay down till 3 hours after the procedure. Don’t go to the gym right after and just take it easy. You may get a little bruise like any other injectable but that has to do with your skin…a pinpoint bruise.

Belle Visage Medical Spa in Studio City offers Dysport now!

Well, I say do it! I love skin care:) I’ve been performing facials since 16 and never thought that it would become so advance! Thanks to the wonderful Medical staff at Belle Visage. You make it a better place.

Restylane or Juvederm?

Kissable Lips 

Kissable Lips

Restylane or Juvederm in Los Angeles, California?

This subject is easy to blog about. Why, you may ask?

Let’s just say that if you had 30 min in your day to plump your lips ….wouldn’t you call right away? I would.
Just look at your baby photos. Do you see that sweet full face? Baby fat “they” call it.
It’s actually Hyaluronic acid.

You’re born with it and all of the sudden….Poof! Hollow cheeks, you start looking tired and sick.
“What? Why is this happening to me?”….To you and the rest of the country. I say country because of stress. Lets say that if you and I were living in Interlochen, Switzerland, We might have fuller faces because life is slower.

It doesn’t mean it’s “less” fun. It simply means that we need to chill out a bit.
There’s always a yin to the yang. With a slow paced life comes less motivation. Therefore with less motivation comes less fulfillment for some.

Ever hear, Work hard, Play Hard?

Here’s how “we” Angelinos Play hard. We run the kids to the different activities we’ve signed them up to, And if no children then the dogs must go to Runyon for a long trek! God forbid my Oliver and Lincoln don’t get play time with the rest of Los Angeles. What kind of mother am I:)) ?

Clearly, I’m the kind that does everything and squeezes in the bit of “well deserved” time with Nurse Rita and Nurse Kari!

Fuller Lips with the best Fillers in Los Angeles

So… Juvi or Resty? That’s “code” for fillers.
I say try both. I personally think that they’re the exact same product but Allergan says different. That they’re cross linked with something that they can’t really disclose.
Whatever! They both work exactly the same.
Look at it like this, one’s a pink package and one’s blue. No one cares about the color. They don’t even see it until it’s the patient decides.

This also goes for Restylane and Juvederm:Same product from different companies

Stop the procrastination. There’s just no need. The best part is that in 30 min, You will instantly look fuller and younger. CRAZY!!! Right? We’re all trying to lose weight, but not on our face!! Why is everything so unfair? Couldn’t we just be born to perfection? I really don’t get it.
Why the diversity? Whatever.

Thank goodness I had acne at a younger age. If my skin was clear, I would’ve probably steered away from the beauty business. Now I look at my girlfriends from back in the days and just want to inject them.
Oh, I forgot……. I can’t. I’m not a nurse. I’m a clinical Aesthetician. No Needles for us, thank you :)

Is Botox safe?

Is Botox Safe?Boto

Botox in Los Angeles, Ca

Hello LA. It’s time for the truth. I myself “used to” be terrified of injectables. Needles and I aren’t the best of friends thank god ..But when it comes to botox, It’s extremely safe. It’s been used for over 30 years on children and adults. If botox was an unsafe medication, don’t you think that the FDA would’ve removed it by now? It’s helped many people with migraines, eye ticks aka twitching and of course the side effect was to be wrinkle free! How horrible is that?

So I finally tried botox about 3 years ago and I’m 35 going on 26!

Seriously, My classmates always ask me why I look so fresh? Well, I owe it to the little liquid that comes at a pretty price but don’t fool yourself by using creams like Strivectin. They just don’t work for the sheer reason that your muscle is deeper than your skin and in order to relax the “muscle” you need to inject it. Don’t waste your money on the creams… They just don’t come close. I was like most beginners waiting for that magical cream, preferably a natural, homeopathic concoction that would make everything disappear, including cellulite of course:)

Botox Safety

Don’t jump into the jacuzzi or take a hot Sauna. Heat is never a good thing after this procedure. But … Do it! for goodness sake, take 15 minutes out of your day 3 times a year and get a beautiful fresh look that isn’t over injected and frozen like a bomb pop. At Belle Visage Medical Corp., The nurses inject less botox on your first visit to make sure that you’re “not” unhappy with the outcome. It’s better to return 10 days from then and get more units of Botox. Be safe, and go to reputable place.

Dysport, better than botox?

A new product will soon be  competing with Botox and I will blog about it shortly! Don’t wait till your lines are thick and helpless. Once they’re deep, you’ll then need to use fillers like Restylane or Juvederm so you can fill up the crease and you’ll still need to  get botox around it to prevent it from continuous muscle contraction. Sounds scary right??? NOT, I think face peels can be riskier but Botox is my best friend. Call us for an appointment @ 818 907.0502. Studio City. Be good to yourself in 2009 and I’ll blog you tomorrow. Tina:)
