1. Dr. Shinn Now Provides A New Procedure to Fix Ear Deformity

    September 3, 2010 by lbittenbender

    1Ear deformities are common at birth: up to 30% of children are born with some type of ear deformity. Dr. Shinn now provides a new procedure that is giving parents and their children an alternative to surgery.

    In the past, pediatricians could only suggest that you “wait and hope” that the ears might naturally improve or, as a last resort, offer a referral for a future surgical intervention. Neither option furnishes new parents with much comfort, confidence or peace of mind. Additionally, no physician can predict which ears will improve naturally, which ears will remain the same, and which ears will worsen.

    There is no longer any reason to wait while desperately hoping that your baby’s ears may get better on their own or until your child qualifies for invasive surgery. If your baby has an ear deformity you can now take comfort in knowing that EarWell™ will immediately and permanently correct it.

    EarWell™ can be applied to your child’s ears within days after birth.

    The key to succe4ss is starting the treatment before the baby is three weeks old.

    It has four basic parts: a cradle that fits over the ear, two types of retractors that hold the ear in the ideal shape, and a cover that snaps on top.

    It is worn for 4 to 6 weeks and, at the conclusion of care, your child’s ears will be shaped normally. EarWell™ requires no anesthesia, sedation or medication because it causes no pain. It is non-surgical and non-invasive, and best of all-it works.

    If you are pregnant or have a newborn with an ear deformity, we invite you hear Dr. Shinn speak about the EarWell Infant Ear Correction System.

  3. Tired of Looking Tired?

    August 23, 2010 by lbittenbender

    Tired of looking tired? Tired of people asking you if are angry?

    With real, noticeable results, no surgery and no recovery time, there are many reasons why BOTOX® Cosmetic has been chosen by millions of women and their doctors to improve the look of the moderate-to-severe frown lines between your brows.

    This proven and safe method of smoothing out frown lines and crow’s feet is carried out in our office by Dr. Shinn and her trained nurses and aesthetician.  Treatments are quick and easy with very little discomfort.

    BOTOX® Cosmetic is administered as a simple, nonsurgical treatment that is injected directly into the muscles between the brows. It works by blocking nerve impulses to the injected muscles. This reduces muscle activity that causes moderate to severe lines to form between the brows.

    Although the results are visible, a treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic will not radically change your facial appearance or make you look as if you’ve “had work done.” The muscle activity that causes frown lines between the brows is temporarily reduced, so you can still frown or look surprised without the wrinkles and creases between your brows.

    We encourage you to become a member of the Brilliant Distinctions Program on the Botox Cosmetic website to receive special rebates which can be used at Adonis Aesthetics.

    Here are the advantages Intense Pulsed Light for Permanent Hair Reduction:

    Increased efficiency

    The pulsed lights systems emit intense light impulsions that are projected into the hair follicle. The follicle’s pigment absorbs light, which is then transformed into heat. Such heat releases the hair and prevents the growth of another hair in that follicle. Moreover, since the light pulses actually get into the skin, you don’t have to wait for your hair to become visible to schedule your treatment.

    Increased quickness

    Pulsed light permanent hair removal is based upon a new medical technology that definitely eliminates hair, up to ten times faster than other laser hair removal methods. The process of removing hair follicles, on a woman’s legs or a man’s back, is completed within 30 minutes. Smaller areas (armpits, upper lip or bikini line) are done even faster!

    Increased comfort

    Techniques that require pulling out your body hair may be very painful. IPL is virtually painless and no damage will occur to your skin. In fact, most of the clients and reviews admit that pulsed light hair removal treatments are clearly more comfortable than laser.

    Increased safety

    Pulsed light hair removal diffuses no ultraviolet radiations. This technique thus presents absolutely no cancerogenic risk. In addition, IPL treatments leave your skin perfectly healthy, without any redness or skin irritation. Results are immediate.

    Additionally, all body parts may benefit from hair removing treatments, except for the area around the eyes. The most frequent body parts to be treated are:

    men’s bikini line

    women’s bikini line

    buttocks’ separation line

    buttocks

    armpits

    arms

    back

    chest

    abdomen

    upper lip

    ears

    area between the eyebrows

    chin

  7. Myths of Cellulite

    August 13, 2010 by lbittenbender

    We found a great article about the Myths of Cellulite

    “It’s the peak of swimsuit season, and there’s a pesky problem that’s plaguing most women: cellulite. Most women have it (year-round, unfortunately) and no woman wants it.”

    Here are three myths about cellulite:

    Myth: Cellulite is a different type of fat.

    Truth: Technically, cellulite is just plain old fat. It’s most recognizable by its cottage cheese-like appearance. It’s most commonly found on the thighs, butt and stomach, as many are probably already aware. These are the areas of the body where fat tends to deposit and the skin is thinner. Several other factors can determine your inclination to have cellulite, including:

    • Gender—Surprisingly about 90% of women and virtually no men suffer from this type of bulge on their behind.
    • Genetics—You can thank your mom or dad if you are more inclined to have dimples in your derriere.
    • Fat—Watch your weight. The more fat you carry, the more cellulite you’ll see.
    • Skin thickness—The thinner your skin, the more cellulite will show.
    • Age—The older you get the more likely cellulite will appear.shape-before-and-after-1

    Myth: If I just lose those last ten pounds, my cellulite will disappear.

    Simply losing weight will not eliminate your cellulite. Women of all shapes and sizes struggle with cellulite. To give yourself the best odds of beating the bulge, the article suggests getting fit and living an active, healthy lifestyle.

    Myth: Cellulite is simply a physical problem.

    Truth: Cellulite can affect more than your appearance. Getting your mind on board can help solve your cellulite dilemma. The article suggests you to keep the following in mind if cellulite seems to be putting a damper on your summer fun.

    • Accept that cellulite is just fat.
    • Think about factors such as age, gender, and heredity that may play a bigger role in your cellulite struggle.
    • Learn how to best lose weight and tone your muscles so you can reduce cellulite in a direct manner.

    Ready to eliminate your cellulite? Breaking new ground in the battle against this popular arch-nemesis, Dr. Rina Shinn of Adonis Aesthetics is the first surgeon in Pueblo to provide SmoothShapes® XV.

    SmoothShapes has proven itself as the FIRST medical approach to treating cellulite that delivers long lasting, visible changes and creates smoother, tighter looking skin. This new system treats cellulite by combining dynamic laser wavelengths and light energy with mechanical manipulation of vacuum and massage.

  8. Skincare Tips You Haven’t Already Heard

    August 11, 2010 by lbittenbender

    face-massage-photo1

    We found a helpful blog article by Dr. Obagi.

    Certain skincare tips, like drinking plenty of water, are now common knowledge. But, every once in a while you come across a true treasure. The kind of rare tip you haven’t heard before but wish someone told you years ago. They usually come up when you least expect it, but we decided to go looking for them. We asked our Facebook and Twitter followers to share the best, rarely-heard-before skincare tips and they answered with some treasures. Take a look:

    1. Liz says DON’T drink with a straw. When you tighten your lips to suck from a straw, you’re using the same muscles it takes to smoke a cigarette. And, we all know what smokers’ lips, and the wrinkles around them, look like.

    2. Victoria recommends you DO use a hands-free headset for your cell phone. Think about it. If your cell phone is ridden with makeup and oils after a long call, guess what transferred to your face? Bacteria, acne’s faithful ally.

    3. Dawn advises you DO apply more sunscreen to the left side of your face and upper body. Not because she has something against your right side, but because she realizes we spend a good chunk of time in our cars. And where does the sun hit us when we’re behind the wheel? You guessed it, our left sides.

    4. Teresa suggests you DO cut your TE Pads in half. The faithful ZO Skin Health customer does this to make them last longer and thus gets more bang for her buck. You know what they say, “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” Kudo

      s to Teresa for coming up with this one.

    5. Xavier thinks women who DON’T own a magnifying mirror are doing their skin and themselves a favor. Looking at our pores that close-up can cause unnecessary obsession and, in many cases, lead to picking, prodding and popping. Put the magnifying mirror away. Your skin, and sanity, will thank you.
