Kim’s Story: Botox, Finishing Triniti Plus Treatments, and a Microderm

Genesis • November 26, 2013

I started this month with an injection of Botox from Dr. Prasad. This is something that when I began my journey with JCMG Laser & Vein Center I said was one thing that I would never do. However, after 10 months of building a trusting relationship with everyone at the center, I know that they would not allow me the option of doing anything less than beneficial for myself. The Botox was injected in the deep creases I have between my eyes. These are the results of years of showing expressions of concern/anger. The Botox has made it where I am no longer able to force the area between my eyes to make this look. I can only imagine how smooth the area between my eyes would be if I never had any stress in my life or if I had Botox to prevent me from making this expression. During the injection there were a few small pinpricks, but since then everything has been great. Look in the mirror and make an angry face and see if that expression causes you creases. If so, give Botox a try and see if you only have aging to lose!

This month was also my last Triniti Plus treatment. Even though overall this procedure is probably the most uncomfortable that I have experienced, it is by far my most favorite! I have noticed the most changes in my complexion and the firmness of my face as a result of these treatments. Stephanie was a little more aggressive with this treatment since it was my last one of the series and also because my recovery and results have been so great. The evening of my treatment and the following day I felt and looked like I had a moderate sunburn with some mild swelling, but it was far from intolerable. By the second day, the redness had completely subsided and I could only feel that “sandpaper” texture on my skin. I believe my “recovery time” was less with my second and third treatments. This may be because I had fewer problem areas to correct since the first treatment made such a wonderful difference. I am so pleased with the noticeable change in the firmness of my skin at my jawline and cheekbones.

A week after my Triniti Plus I enjoyed a microderm to assist in removing the dead skin from my face. This procedure is always so relaxing and I left with my face feeling refreshed.

Now back to my normal daily routine and use of SkinMedica products to keep the positive changes I have witnessed over this past year and prevent any damage and as much aging as possible.

Are you tired of looking in the mirror and seeing the signs of aging, sun damage, or just the wear and tear of everyday life? Get ready to turn up the heat with Tixel, the skin resurfacing treatment that’s hotter than your morning coffee and twice as refreshing. This innovative treatment uses cutting-edge technology to rejuvenate your skin and leave you looking and feeling refreshed. So, what exactly is skin resurfacing? Essentially, it’s a process that removes the outer layers of your skin to reveal the healthier, more vibrant skin underneath. (Think of it like peeling a carrot.) This can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and even acne scars. This is the best part – Tixel is non-invasive and has minimal downtime. Tixel uses heat to create tiny microchannels in the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing process and encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Plus, because Tixel uses heat rather than lasers or chemicals, it’s a safer and more comfortable option. This method is less invasive and leads to less tissue damage, resulting in minimal downtime. Of course, it’s important to remember that Tixel is only part of the equation when it comes to healthy, glowing skin. To truly maintain those amazing results, you need to take good care of your skin at home. This includes using high-quality skincare products, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and staying hydrated. Think of Tixel as the hero of your skincare routine, and your at-home regimen as the trusty sidekick along with your Aesthetic Provider’s tips and tricks. Together, they’ll help you achieve your skincare goals.

Cosmetic fillers are a great way to help you turn back time, when used correctly. Do you notice the person staring at you in the mirror has a few more lines than before? Are you seeing an image of your parents or grandparents looking back at you? Time and the aging process is something we can’t stop, but we can help slow it with cosmetic fillers. Cosmetic fillers are a great way to enhance areas on the face or simply put back volume that time took away. They can volumize the cheeks, sharpen the chin and jawlines, volumize the lips, and soften unwanted wrinkles. Done in the right hands, cosmetic fillers will help bring back a younger, more youthful version of you! Injecting filler is an art that requires precision, ongoing training, and an eye for detail. For the best results, it is important that you choose an injector who is highly educated and stays current with the latest techniques. It is important to remember that fillers only replace volume; they don’t stop the movement of the face, which le

The good news is bioidentical hormone replacement can relieve these symptoms and even provide protection against chronic health conditions. Not to be confused with synthetic hormones that come with the risk of blood clots and cancers, bioidentical hormones are naturally made from plant-based materials and have little to no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or cancer, but instead are shown by research studies to protect against these conditions and can be used long term without an increase in risk.

It’s Sunsational month again at Genesis! We are looking forward to and getting geared up for our 16th annual Sunsational Celebration Open House on May 18th. It’s hard to believe how many of these we have put on as a company. Every year we are so grateful to all who celebrate with us. This year also marks, for me, 16 years of being a client of Genesis. As some of you know, Dr. Prasad and Barb are my parents, so I was exposed to great skincare products and sun protection from a young age. As I have grown up, and when I began my career at Genesis eight years ago, I tried even more of the services and products we offer. I can’t say enough how much they have changed my life. Everything I have tried has been fabulous, from vein care and Biote Hormone Replacement to routine facials and Botox. At 31, I feel younger than I used to and feel more confident in my skin than ever before. I have grown up around a lot of my Genesis team, and we have added some newer faces as the years have passed. They are amazing! I feel privileged to work with such a solid and passionate group of people. I think this place is pretty magical and you can feel it when you come through our doors. So, I invite you to hang out with us, meet the team, and experience all the fabulousness Genesis offers this month. Find something that will help you feel better or be more confident. You deserve it!
