Zerona Fat Reduction Helps Atlanta Mom Lose 42 Pounds

When I walked into Abraham Medical Cosmetics in Snellville, GA (outside of Atlanta) in April of 2011, I was feeling defeated.  I was sick, my husband was sick, and my toddler was sick.  But beyond the sinus infections that wouldn’t go away, I was just worn out.  I had no energy, no drive, no stamina and very little joy.  I weighed 181 pounds, and I hated my body.  Every time I tried to exercise I was completely discouraged by the bouncing of all those extra pounds.  The most active date my husband and I had gone on in years was to play putt-putt.  Whenever my toddler asked me to play the answer was almost always “sorry honey, Mama is sick right now.”

Dr. Ben Abraham’s medical staff saw my family, prescribed medications, and we were about to go on our way, when I saw an ad for Zerona®.  I had seen it a few times before and just figured it wasn’t for me.  But this time, for some reason, I asked about it. The response was immediate.  Three different nurses at Dr. Abraham’s office had done the treatment and were willing to tell me how wonderful it was.  Their stories impacted me much more than a testimonial would from some random person.

Susan was very straight with me, stating that Zerona® wasn’t a magic wand. However, she said if I did my part and stuck to the exercise and nutrition protocol, the treatment would help me a lot.  Understanding the importance of eating well with fat reduction treatments, she said it would give me a kick start to a better shape, and then, I could do the rest.

And do you know what?  She was right.

I am writing this in December of 2011 after having lost 42 pounds.  I did quite a bit of work to get here.  I changed some long standing eating habits that were doing a lot of damage to my system, added moderate exercise to my regular routine, and learned how to say no to foods that I just didn’t need. The best part is that in the mean time I found a fun, active hobby and a reward all wrapped up into one:  ice skating.

In my mind, the key to making a long standing change in your life is to make it fun.  Find a way to reward yourself that contributes to your continued well-being.  Skating 5 hours a week IS a work out, but it is NOT work.  It is what I do for fun!  And I’ve dragged my whole family into this new, healthy lifestyle with me.  My husband and I have a regular date night where we skate together. In fact, my husband has lost 35 pounds and counting, just by following the same protocol as me!

From April to August—in just under 6 months we went from putt-putt to ice-skating.  I’ve gotten my life back, breathed new life into my family, and learned how to play again! Zerona® is what helped me get started.  Thank you to Susan and Stephanie and all the providers at Abraham Medical Cosmetics.

Vein Removal Treatments at Abraham Medical Cosmetics

abraham medical cosmeticsVisible veins on the face can be embarrassing and annoying, but are also a tell-tale sign of aging. Caused by a back-up of blood in the capillaries, visible veins like spider veins most often appear on the face around the nose and cheeks.

Abraham Medical Cosmetics offers two solutions for vein removal: Syneron® laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) vein removal technologies.

Syneron® laser vein removal works by focusing laser light to target the specific pigment of veins. During treatment, the laser emits a single wavelength that breaks up the vein, allowing it to be absorbed by the immune system. Because small visible facial veins do not function correctly as normal veins do, there is generally no harm in erasing them through laser vein removal.

Additionally, our laser applicator features on-contact cooling to keep you comfortable and safe. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology works similarly to laser vein removal, except IPL utilizes multiple wavelengths of light directed toward the vein’s pigment to penetrate deeper into the skin, heating the vein to a point where it is destroyed and allowing the body to eliminate visible veins. Depending on the treatment area, most patients see full results within two to four IPL treatments.

Both IPL and laser vein removal treatments can be effective for different skin tones and types in eliminating the visible veins that appear on all areas of the face.  Both treatments leave the surrounding tissue and veins untouched. While new spider veins may appear over time, the eliminated veins will not return after the course of treatments. Vein removal with laser and IPL technologies is generally quick and manageable: most patients describe the sensation to that of being snapped with a rubber band, though numbing cream is available to minimize any discomfort.

For more information on Syneron® and IPL vein removal technologies or to schedule a consultation at our Snellville, GA office, contact us. You can also find us on Facebook and Twitter with regular news and updates.

Abraham Medical Cosmetics’ Injectable Facial Rejuvenation Options Explained

abraham medical cosmeticsAs we age the processes that once allowed our skin the elasticity and smoothness of youth begin to slow. Collagen, the scaffolding behind the skin that makes it appear firm and supple, is not as ample as in our youth and damage from unprotected sun exposure and the environment begin to take a toll on the way our skin looks. Along with the effects of age, repeated facial expressions can deepen lines around the brows, eyes, nose, and mouth.

Facial injectables like Botox® Cosmetic and Dysport® and facial fillers like Restylane® and Radiesse® work with your body to help smooth wrinkles and replump areas that have lost volume with time.

Botox® and Dysport® are two variations of dermal injectables that help to smooth fine lines and wrinkles in between the eyes and forehead. They are both made from purified strains of the botulinum toxin and work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles.

For the other areas of the face, Restylane® and Radiesse® are fillers that can be injected around the nose, mouth, and cheeks to restore the volume and suppleness that our skin loses as we age. These fillers also refine creases, fine lines, and wrinkles to give you a younger-looking visage instantly. Radiesse® even boosts the body’s natural collagen production rate so results last longer!

Dermal injectables are an excellent option for those who may not be ready for more extreme anti-aging measures like plastic surgery, but still want to renew and refresh their appearance.  Contact us for more information on facial injectables or other wrinkle reduction treatments at Abraham Medical Cosmetics.

You Asked, We Answered: Your Questions about Chemical Peels

How Does a Chemical Peel Benefit My Skin?

Chemical peels use specific acidic combinations to help smooth your facial skin and even out its tone and texture. During the treatment, a compound is applied to the facial skin and left on for a predetermined amount of time. The chemicals penetrate the skin and lift the dead external layer of skin while boosting collagen production in the deeper dermal layers.

After the treatment, the skin begins to slough the damaged outer layer of skin, hence the name “peel.” A chemical peel can eliminate signs of aging like fine lines, sun spots, and acne scarring. Each peel is customized for each patient’s skin type and skin condition(s).

How long does a chemical peel treatment last?

Most treatments last from 30 minutes to an hour allowing many patients to schedule their treatments during their lunch breaks and return to work afterward.

Is there any downtime with a chemical peel?
Depending on the strength of the peel applied, you may notice skin redness and irritation. However these side effects should subside by the day after treatment. The dead and damaged outer layers of skin will begin to peel soon afterward. These minor side effects generally do not impede everyday activities, and most patients return to their routines immediately.

Which peel will give me the best results?

During a consultation, one of our Snellville skin treatment providers will take your skin type and any skin conditions into consideration and determine the best chemical peel to achieve your desired cosmetic goals. Whether you’re looking to eliminate the signs of aging, reduce facial scarring associated with acne, or reduce sun spots, we have a chemical peel that suits your needs and can rejuvenate your look.
