i-lipo the new revolutionary intelligent alternative to liposuction

Michigan Advanced Aesthetics medical spa in Royal Oak is the first in Michigan to offer this unique revolutionary treatment for body shaping. This non-surgical body shaping treatment takes only a few minutes per treatment.  i-lipo works by releasing fat storage in the adipose tissue. Patients can expect about a 10% circumference loss during the course of the treatment. Depending on the area patients can expect to lose 1 to 2 dress sizes. The treatment consists of a series of two treatments per week for four weeks. The non-surgical procedure has no pain, no needles, and no down-time. i-lipo takes 20 minutes or less followed by 30 to 45 min. of cardio to release the fat in the targeted area. The series of treatments comes with your own i-lipo coach, who will guide you through your process.  No restriction on diet is required however, to ensure lasting results it is suggested that patients keep on track with a healthy lifestyle. Your i-lipo coach will guide you through the process with tips and suggestions for extended results. i-lipo is a targeted treatment for those stubborn areas where exercise cannot seem to provide results. i-lipo is also great for those that need to see some results to inspire them to start a healthier lifestyle. i-lipo is FDA approved, has no down-time, and most patients see results after one treatment. Similar treatments have come to market but do not offer the same results, amount of power per treatment, or protocols to achieve desired results. All i-lipo treatments come with an initial consultation to make sure that you are a candidate for this body shaping treatment.

Protecting Your Skin from Sun Exposure

.Are you noticing that with the summer months that you have dark spots and uneven skin tone? Sun-damage always will get darker in the summer months due to sun-exposure. Most sun-damage comes from time spent outside without sun protection at a young age and is compounded by sun burns. It takes years for sun-damage to eventually emerge to the top layer of the skin and needless to say takes awhile to try and even out after sun-damage has appeared.

If you have children one of the best things you can do is making sure that they have sunscreen on at all times when playing outside or at the pool. If you have children under one year check with your pediatrician before using sun-screen. Many sunscreens may be too harsh for a baby’s skin. If you start getting your child used to wearing sunscreen this promotes good skin sense for the future. This practice will not only save their skin from damage later in life but will help prevent skin cancer. The majority of skin cancers are directly related to UV exposure.

The FDA recently changed guidelines on sunscreens that will go into effect in the early part of 2012. Sunscreens will now have star rating and specific requirements for sunscreen touting waterproof. This may make sunscreens easier to determine which one is right for you and your family. There are so many brands to choose from including products that contain physical and chemical ingredients. The best sunscreen is one that contains a physical block. This means an ingredient called Zinc. Physical sunscreen means that once you have applied, the active ingredients are already providing protection. If you can find a sunscreen that has Zinc and Titanium Dioxide this would be an excellent choice. Titanium Dioxide is another ingredient that has light reflective properties. Chemical sunscreens and there are many, take about 20 minutes to activate with your skin and not all chemical sunscreens have broadband UVA/UVB protection.

What about that SPF? You should wear an SPF of at least 30 on a daily basis. There are many sunscreens on the market that have an SPF of 50 plus but this is mostly for marketing purposes. Anything above SPF 50 does not provide anymore protection. One important aspect of sunscreen is what the word implies, a sunscreen. You can still get sunburn and damage while wearing sunscreen so you should also take other precautions. Remember to re-apply sunscreen often, dress in light clothing, and wear sunglasses and hats when in direct sunlight.

If you cannot find an appropriate sunscreen in your local stores you may want to look on-line or at your local dermatologist or med-spa. Many companies now offer specialty sun-screens with all the ingredients that will benefit your skin and give you the best protection. Michigan Advanced Aesthetics in Royal Oak offers physical sun-screens for the face with maximum protection and a variety including sunscreens for oily skin.
