Don’t Sacrifice Your Health And Safety For Savings - May 14, 2012
A video from The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery’s new educational site Project Beauty. This video discusses the risk involved when one sacrifices their health and safety for savings. My theory has always been – If a deal seems to good to be true, it probably is. There are 50,000-100,00 non certified doctors practicing plastic surgery in the United States alone. If you are considering a surgical or non surgical cosmetic procedure, please do your research. Your opthamologist or gynecologist has not been trained in aesthetic surgery and is not qualified to perform surgical cosmetic procedures. Please make sure your plastic surgeon is Board Certified and is operating in an accredited facility. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you,
Dr. William P. Adams, M.D., F.A.C.S

Wearing Sunblock Can Help Prevent Wrinkles and Age Spots - April 18, 2012
One of the best measures you can take to prevent wrinkles is to apply a good sunblock every morning before you leave the house. Many are unaware there is a difference between sunblock and sunscreen. Sunblock protects the skin from UVA and UVB radiation by reflecting the sun’s rays before they are able to reach and damage your skin. A sunscreen sits on top of the skin and absorbs the sun’s rays before they can damage the skin. I personally prefer sunblocks since they stay on the skin better than most sunscreens and are especially good for those with an active lifestyle.
After the long New England winter I’m sure many of you are looking forward to spending more time outdoors. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to have a good sunblock or sunscreen. Get your family members in the habit of applying sunblock before leaving the house. Protecting your skin now will slow down the aging process, helping prevent wrinkles and pigmentation issues. Most importantly, you’ll be protecting yourself from skin cancer.
The American Academy of Dermatology recommends using a sunscreen or sunblock with an SPF of 30 or higher. Here are my favorite sunblocks available for purchase at either office or in our online store here.
