Eliminate Crows Feet, Grow Longer Lashes, and Rejuvenate Your Eyes With This Special!

Don’t forget, on September 21st we are offering you a special package that includes all of the following for $1,000: 

Sometimes I have patients come to see me who are interested in doing something about their facial appearance, but don’t’ have the time or money to invest in the total facial rejuvenation program.  For these patients, I recommend focusing in on a particular area of the face that can be improved.

The eyes are a great area to start with and I have seen some incredible results using the Deep FX laser, Botox, and Dermal Fillers.  As we age, many of us start to see our eyelashes thin, which is why I have included the prescription for Latisse. To help you with the recovery period after the laser, we have included the Glo Mineral Make-up Concealer.

I highly recommend making your appointment soon as spaces are quickly filling up on September 21st. Don’t delay if you want all eyes on you this fall!

Wearing Sunblock Can Help Prevent Wrinkles and Age Spots

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.

Replenishing Sunblock SPF 36

Delay premature aging with this state-of-the-art formula with Micronized Titanium and exclusive botanicals that help prevent the breakdown of collagen and elastin.  Ideal for daily facial wear and can be used around the eyes.

Daily Replenishing Sunblock SPF 30

A luxurious chemical-free, waterproof sunblock made with 7.5% transparent zinc oxide, 2.4% titanium dioxide, MMPI peptides and beta carotene to provide full spectrum UVA/UVB protection as well as rejuvenating the skin’s overall appearance. Absorbs quickly into skin, leaving a matt airbrushed glow.

Tom Talks About His Botox Treatment

The following post is written by our Adams Center Ambassador Tom Kennedy about his first Botox treatment at The Adams Center.

Post Botox Debrief by Tom Kennedy

I had my first treatment with Botox about three weeks ago to my forehead, the area between my eyebrows, and around my eyes.  I have to say without ANY exaggeration; I noticed a smoothing of my wrinkles almost overnight-though I know that it takes about two weeks for the full effects to take place.
The treatment was very straight forward and took about 7 minutes.  I scheduled my appointment for the morning, and tried to keep my schedule clear for the day, as I did not know what to expect-however that ended up not being the case.  It was with a bit of anxiety that I knew I had a full day appointments showing properties afterwards.

Dr. Adams was calming and the injections did not hurt at all.  He did a series of injections on the forehead area, then a couple between my eyebrows then about three injections around each eye in an arc.  The injections felt like the tiniest of pricks to the skin-if anyone has ever had acupuncture-it feels like that.
Right after the injections, an ice pack was laid over my forehead eye area for a couple of minutes.  There was only a tiny bit of blood from one or two of the injection sites.  When leaving, it looked like I had a couple of mosquito bites on my forehead-which went away in about 10 minutes, as I was driving to work. I had no bruising whatsoever.
The rest of the day, I met with clients and showed $3,200,000 lakefront home in Lincoln, then a $4,950,000 home on 25 acres in Concord, then a $989,000 3000 sq ft condo in Charlestown.  Afterwards, I finished up my office work then took clients to a private party hosted by First Republic Bank to view the new wing of the Gardner Museum.  These clients are art collectors themselves and have a home on the North Shore that I have on the market for $8,500,000. My first Botox day closed with a late dinner at the Capitol Grill where we ran into friends and spent the evening talking and having a great time into the early hours of the morning.

 

The next day, I awoke and looked in the mirror-and I could not exactly describe the change except to say it looked like I had had the most restful-longest sleep of my life and my brow seemed to be smooth.  Botox is a miracle drug. I would definitely recommend it and I was pleased to see that for me there was absolutely no down time or interruption to my schedule.
