Venus Bliss MAX™: The most effective body contouring treatment yet

When it comes to aging gracefully, looking and feeling your best means finding confidence at every stage in life. For many women, especially after the age of 35, that confidence is tied to how we feel in our own skin. Whether it's stubborn fat that refuses to budge, cellulite that catches the light the wrong way, or muscles that have lost their firmness, our bodies often hold onto signs of aging in ways diet and exercise alone can’t fully address.

Secret RF FAQ's

Skin Remodeling From The Inside Out

WHAT IS THE SECRET RF MICRONEEDLING SYSTEM? The Secret RF is a novel approach to regular micro needling (see below) which delivers fractional radio frequency (RF) energy to deeper layers of the skin with minimal damage to the skin’s surface. The multi-layered treatment is tailored to each individual and addresses their unique skin concerns. It is regular microneedling delivered more precisely with a computer controlled delivery system of needles that delivers a computer generated radio frequency energy down the needles to tremendously amplify the results.
WHAT SKIN CONDITIONS DOES IT TREAT? The Secret RF treatment is ideal for improving aging skin, photodamage, fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck, scars (including acnes scars), skin quality and striae. The treatment is safe and effective, and suitable for all skin types in patients seeking skin revitalization. It can be used as well to improve cellulite and tighten skin in most body areas such as backs of arms, legs, above the knees, stomach so and so much more.
HOW DOES IT WORK? Secret RF uses precise computer operated delivery system of microneedles to cause a controlled injury to the skin akin to regular micro needling but with much more precision of depth. It also delivers radio frequency energy into varying levels of the skin including the deeper layers where treatment is most beneficial. Unlike other devices which only deposit energy in upper layer of the skin, the Secret RF delivers radio frequency energy below the surface where it is needed most to help revitalize and regenerate the tissue. This unique delivery of energy allows us to achieve optimal results with little to no downtime on all skin types. The Secret RF is the ‘Cadillac’ of radio frequency micro needling systems.
The microneedling injury to the dermis of the skin stimulates the skin to repair itself by producing more collagen. The RF component stimulates even greater collagen production, but also remodels the collagen that is already present further tightening the skin. The energy delivered also photocoagulates as it goes leaving the patient less red and with a much shorter down time than regular micro needling allowing the person to return to regular activities usually immediately.
WHAT IS THE SECRET RF PROCEDURE LIKE? Secret RF is an easy, safe, and effective procedure that can be performed usually in a quick 15-30 minute treatment session. During the treatment, you will feel a slightly warm sensation, and some pressure in the areas where the treatment proceeds. Prior to the treatment, numbing cream is applied to the involved area, making the treatment reasonably comfortable for the patient.
HOW MANY SECRET RF TREATMENTS WILL I NEED? Patients typically need 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. Most patients report seeing improvement after the second treatment however results peak 3 months after the last treatment.
HOW LONG DOES A TREATMENT LAST? Results vary based on the individual. To maintain results, maintenance treatments are recommended every 12-18 months.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER MY PROCEDURE? After the treatment, a growth factor containing skin care product will be applied to your skin and you will be asked to refrain from wearing make up for several hours. Any minor redness or swelling resulting from the treatment will subside within 12-24 hours. After the treatment, you can expect to return to normal activities.
WHAT IS THE COST OF THE SECRET RF TREATMENTS? The Secret RF treatments usually costs between $700 and $900 per treatment of a face and approximately half of that cost to do the neck and décolleté. Body areas are priced according to the size of the areas being treated. Here at Bella Medspa we have cooperative agreements with other medspas in the area that has allowed us to obtain this ‘best of the breed’ technology and provide it to you at significantly lower pricing than this cost mentioned above. Call now to receive a free consultation and free Emage skin analysis and learn more about our amazing pricing for this incredible technology.
Here’s to your beautiful skin! Warmest Regards,

Micro-Cannula Injection Of Under-Eye Fillers For Tear Troughs by Dr. Craig Schacher

Wed, 17 Mar 2021 20:18:00 GMT

Micro-Cannula Injection Of Under-Eye Fillers For Tear Troughs

For under-eye hollows known as “tear troughs”, there are speciallyengineered dermal fillers and specially designed injection devices know asmicrocannulas. When we look at someone, our eyes are drawn to shadows. A tear trough hollow is such a shadow whichdraws our focus such that we see that person as tired and weathered looking.Tear troughs distract us from seeing the brightness and beauty of one’seyes.

By choosing a filler with the correct properties of thickness,cohesiveness, and light-reflecting properties, and placing the fillermeticulously in the correct layer of the skin, your physician can correct thecause of your hollow in a way that raises the hollowed area to a level thatmatches that of the surrounding skin. The result is rejuvenated and less tired-looking eyes.

What fillers are best for under-eye hollows?

This is a bit of a loaded question, because the answer depends onwhat type of tear trough you have. Therereally are two types of tear troughs. A ‘true’tear trough and a ‘pseudo’ tear trough. True tear troughs can be genetic, and often start at a much youngerage. A true tear trough results from thethin skin under the eye adhering to the underlying muscle beneath. On the other hand, pseudo tear troughs occur when the mid-cheekloses volume or fat usually from aging or weight loss revealing a hollow wherethe fat previously gave support. Which filler to use depends on which type of tear trough youhave. Some patients have both a ‘true’ and‘pseudo’ tear trough and need two different filler products to correct thedefect properly.

In general, pseudo tear troughs are filled more deeply with athicker filler where the usual fat has disappeared. Conversely, true tear troughs are filled moresuperficially between the skin and underlying muscle layer using a thinnerfiller. Such thinner fillers must bevery smooth and moldable. By speciallycross linking the filler molecules together in a certain pattern, the fillercan be inhibited from reflecting various wavelengths of light and giving off anunwanted color (known as a “Tyndall effect”). My favorite filler designed in this way is Restylane Silk.

How do I know which type of tear trough I have?

A few tests in the office can help determine if yours is a pseudotear trough, true tear trough, or a combination of both. Having an experienced physician determine thetype of tear trough you have and the best approach to correcting it is veryimportant in achieving extremely satisfying and long-lasting results.

How long does under-eye filler last?

The speed at which fillers are metabolized varies from person toperson. In general, under-eye fillersusually last between 9-12 months. Thosewho are very active, such as long-distance runners and triathletes, tend tohave their filler last less and sometimes see it lose effect as quickly as 6months.

Is under-eye filler safe?

Under-eye filler treatments are statistically very safe butstill are not without possible side effects and complications. These include overfilling of the area,puffiness, bruising, noticeable lumps or bumps, improper placement, embolizationof blood vessels, and unusual discoloration from the filler. Many of these sideeffects have been lessened or eliminated by developing better fillers andbetter injection techniques using a microcannula.

Fillers that are thin, moldable, do not attract a lot of water to cause puffiness, and are cross-linked in a way that they do not give off any color or hue are now available for safe and very effective superficial filling of this area. Injecting with a microcannula instead of a needle has made what used to be a procedure fraught with frequent bruising and “black eyes” now a procedure with minimal to no downtime. Microcannulas have also made this procedure extremely safe and comfortable.

What is a microcannula?

A microcannula looks like a needle but instead of having a sharpend, has a rounded end with a hole for product to go through near the end. Because it wiggles its way through tissuewithout cutting things as a needle does, it decreases side effects and makesthis procedure far more satisfying for the physician and the patient.

Who is not a candidate for under eye filler?

Generally, people with severely crepey and loose skin under theeye are not good candidates for under eye filler. Also, patients with a large amount of fatthat has herniated though the underlying muscle to cause “fat bags” under theeye, are also not candidates for this treatment.

Who is a candidate for under eye filler?

On the other hand, this is a procedure that can be performed inboth young and older patients alike. If you have reasonably good skin under theeye, with only mild crepiness, and a pronounced hollow or tear trough, thenthis treatment can erase those tired eyes and make you look and feel refreshed.

In Conclusion Under eye filing can be performed safelywith little to no downtime and give people that rested and refreshed look thatthey are wanting. It, however, requires more skill and expertise than justabout any other area of the face that can be injected. For this reason, it is highly recommendedthat it be performed by a physician with a great deal of experience andexpertise who is also very proficient in the use of microcannulas to make thisprocedure as safe, effective, and comfortable as possible.
Here is to seeing those tired eyes looking bright and refreshedagain!

New Paragraph

What is the Silhouette Instalift?

Wed, 06 Jan 2021 04:40:00 GMT

Silhouette Instalift

What is the Silhouette Instalift?

The silhouette Instalift procedure is a relatively new breakthrough technology that uses clear threads with tiny clear cones on them placed precisely under the skin to lift up the skin of the mid face including cheeks, nasal labial folds, marionette lines, jowls, and jawlines without surgery or incisions, and with far less downtime.

These threads are made out of the same substance that is used in the product Sculptra. That substance known as PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) is famous for building collagen in the skin like almost nothing else. The substance was first used in medical patients with conditions such as AIDS and cancer where their faces had hollowed out and left these patients looking gaunt. This substance became famous when safely injected into those hollow areas, it was able to stimulate the bodies own collagen production and build back up the skin allowing their faces to look full and healthy again.

Using this PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) in lifting threads is really a completely different concept from the thread lifts of old. Instead of permanent threads lifting the skin, these threads slowly dissolve but leave a collagen matrix in their place that continues to lift the skin as well as rejuvenate the skins texture and appearance giving a twofold effect.

How long does the Silhouette Instalift last?

In general the collagen created by PLLA is thought to last for 18 to 24 months. That said, some have found that the lift effect lasts much longer. The reason thought to be behind this longer duration of lift is the fact that when your skin is held in a lifted position for a long period of time, other dermal attachments to the skin will often form holding that skin in that lifted position indefinitely. That said, to manage expectations properly we generally like to say the Silhouette Instalift procedure lasts anywhere from 1 1/2 to 2 years.

How long does the procedure take to perform?

The procedure generally takes approximately 45 minutes to perform. It is performed under simple local anesthesia without the need for general anesthesia. A two hour appointment is booked for you and the remainder of time is often not entirely needed, but generally used to take before and after pictures, go over the procedure a final time, carefully mark where the threads are going to be placed, clean and sterile drape the facial areas, and go over your aftercare instructions.

How uncomfortable is the procedure?

Again, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients rate the procedure as a 3 to 4 out of 10 on a 10 point pain scale. Most of the discomfort patients actually say is the discomfort of the local anesthetic being administered itself which again is rated on that pain scale as a 3 to 4 out of 10. After the anesthetic has been injected, the patients generally find the procedure reasonably comfortable and tolerable.

What are the common side effects from this procedure?

Most common side effects include bruising, and for the first 2 days puckering, and draping of the skin that has almost always completely resolved by DAY 3. These side effects always resolve, and having performed the second highest number of this procedure in New England, I have yet to ever see anything but an incredibly soft and natural result which has made this procedure so satisfying to perform. Approximately 10-15% of patients get a significant bruise usually up in the hairline region which can last longer than the usual 5 to 6 day recovery time but is generally easily covered up with makeup.

What is the downtime after the Silhouette Instalift procedure?

The downtime after the Silhouette Instalift procedure is generally 5 to 6 days if you want no one to know that you had it done. Generally, people will look most noticeably done for the first one to two days after which the lifting effect will settle in nicely and very naturally.

For 1-2 weeks we ask that you rest your face and go into what we call our ‘Resting B. Face mode’ where you avoid as much facial expression as possible while your results settle in and collagen builds so as to optimize the amount of lifting that occurs. For this reason we discourage heavy exercising and grimacing at the gym, and ask patients to try and use a donut pillow and sleep off of their faces as much as possible.

What sort of lift can I expect from this procedure?

The Silhouette Instalift procedure gives a beautiful and always natural lifting effect. It is not a surgical face lift and cannot give as extreme a lifting result. That said, where a facelift in some can appear overly taut and unnatural for a period of time or longer, the Silhouette Instalift always looks natural and rejuvenating. This procedure fills the void for patients that have some mid to moderate facial drooping, heavy smile lines, jowls, and loose skin but are not really ready or far enough along to need a facelift. Or for patients that really prefers to stay away from going under the knife all together, the Silhouette Instalift procedure can be repeated in more heavily problemed areas of the face months later to achieve more profound results.

The other advantage of the silhouette instalift procedure is the beautiful collagen building skin effect the threads have on the face that one does not get with a surgical face lift alone.

This technology is also being used in relatively young patients to correct early, often inherited problem areas to stave off the signs of early aging. There are many who believe that used in this way along with other aesthetic technologies, many in the future may never need to go under the knife at all.

How much does the procedure cost?

Unless we are just correcting a simple problem area in a younger patient where only a few threads may need to be used, we are generally using 3 to 4 threads on each side of the face, or 6 to 8 threads for a face in total. The cost of this generally ranges between $2250 and $2800 at our facility, but at other facilities can range as high as $500 per thread or $4000.

If this is something you are interested in and want to learn more about, book your free consultation today to see if you are a good candidate and if the Silhouette Instalift procedure is right for you.
