Are "Crow's feet" creeping in around your eyes?
Do the lines around your mouth linger after you've
stopped laughing?
While there are surgical
procedures available, these may not
be the right answer for everyone.
Fortunately for the millions of people who've tried
them, non-surgical procedures
provide a more youthful appearance, faster recovery,
and lower costs.
While the following may not be THE fountain
of youth, they can at least slow the hands of time
for a few months:
Botox treatments
Collagen injections
Dermabrasion
Chemical peels
Laser skin resurfacing
Some facials
If you have questions on these or other procedures,
please call my office at 617-262-2208 for assistance.

Summer is finally here!
With long hours of sunlight to lounge on the beach,
hit the links and dig in the garden, it's time to put on
the sunblock.
Although skin cancer is largely avoidable, the
incidence has increased dramatically since the 1970's.
Studies show that about 70% of adults don't protect
themselves from the sun.
Here are some summer sun protection tips:
Avoid unnecessary exposure, especially during peak
UV hours: 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Apply sunblock rated SPF 30 or higher
frequently
Wear long pants, long-sleeved shirts, broad-
brimmed hats, and UV-protective sunglasses
Teach your children good sun protection habits.
Most sun damage is done before you're 18
Examine your skin, head to toe once every 3
months
Check out our special line of high quality sunblock and
moisturizers to help keep your skin healthy
and safe.

Practiced regularly, these tips (contributed by Mary
Hart of Iron Crow Yoga) can help prevent many of the
negative effects of aging.
Breathe: Exhaling not only relieves stress,
but you can actually tone the belly with proper
breathing technique
Drink in Excess: Water rinses cell wastes,
blood poisons and environmental toxins from the
body
Eat Well: Try eating 5 small (but balanced)
meals a day to keep your metabolic fire stoked
3 stretches in 3 minutes: These stretches
can help eliminate postural imbalances:
- Serenity Pose
- Standing Forward Bend
- Beginners head stand (Dolphin Pose or Half-Dog
Pose)
Seek a moderately challenging exercise
routine:
- 30% strength
- 30% aerobic (low to medium impact)
- 30% stretching
- 10% relaxation
Allow for sufficient rest between workouts to help
the body recuperate.
The Adams-Seckel Center now offers yoga and personal
training. Contact us at 617-262-2208 for
questions and to design a program to fit your specific
needs.

Exciting Changes at The Adams-Seckel Center |

Recently, we celebrated the opening of our new
Boston facility at 18 Newbury Street.
The event was a huge success! Made even more so
by the fact that many of our patients were on hand to
help us celebrate.
We'll be celebrating again this summer on the north
shore. Scheduled for July, we will be moving our Salem
office to our new location at 4 Centennial Drive in
Peabody.
Like we did with our Boston facility, we will be
expanding the services offered to include yoga and
personal training.
Additionally, the Peabody office will feature a
state-of-the art operating room, which will allow us to
perform surgical procedures in the office.
I look forward to helping you look and feel your
best this summer.
Please call 617-262-2208 to
discuss your personal beauty goals, ask any questions,
or to provide any suggestions.
Best regards,
William P. Adams, M.D., F.A.C.S.
