    July 13, 2009 by lbittenbender

    Dr. Shinn of Adonis Aesthetics uses the gold standard in tattoo removal.

    Here’s how the Medlite C6 laser works:

    • Lasers use an extremely fast pulse to shatter the ink in your tattoo.
    • The fast pulse plays a key role in shattering the ink without causing scarring or other long-term damage.
    • The wavelengths, fluence, pulse width, and other settings are all designed for tattoo removal.tattoo removal
    • Thankfully scarring is no longer a side of laser tattoo removal when the correct laser is used.

  9. What is the difference between the Obagi System products and others?

    July 10, 2009 by lbittenbender

    The Obagi website has some very informative information about skin care.  We found this question and answer on the site recently.

    Adonis Aesthetics in Pueblo is your location for the prescription strength formulations from Obagi.

    719-543-5000

    Obagi products at Adonis Aesthetics.

    Obagi products at Adonis Aesthetics.

    What is the difference between the Obagi System products and the products purchased from department stores, drug stores, infomercials, etc?
    A: Obagi System skin care products are prescription strength, or pharmaceutical quality products that work at the cellular level to improve the skin cell function. Products purchased from a retail store are Cosmeceutical products. When applied, they do not correct skin cells, instead they “mask” the damaged skin only on the surface of the skin for a temporary period.

    Obagi skin care treatments aim at improving the blood circulation and promote cell renewal and regeneration. Conditions like roughness, dryness, hyperpigmentation are treated from the outer level of the skin. These treatments stimulate the two fibrous proteins collagen and elastin which contribute to the tone, texture and elasticity of the skin. The skin feels nourished and its natural moisture reserves are refreshed.


  10. MD Lash Factor Gets a Rave Review

    July 9, 2009 by lbittenbender

    Over at the blog called “Penelope’s Pitstop” she reviews MD Lash Factor.

    A few tid-bits from her blog:

    • I went on the hunt for a product that would lengthen and strengthen my natural lashes.
    • After several false starts, I hit the jackpot!
    • MD Lash Factor is the BOMB, ladies.
    • I bought it and began using it without telling anyone.
    • Within one month, I had four girlfriends ask me if I was using extensions again.

    MD Lash Factor is a new physician-formulated eyelash conditioner that improves the appearance of natural lash length, fullness, and thickness.
