    February 26, 2010 by lbittenbender

    mischa-bartonActress Mischa Barton shares her skin care routine which includes a product from Neocutis.

    After cleaning her skin, Mischa shares this:
    “I follow that up with the Neocutis Lumiere Eye Cream, it’s super light so you can wear it throughout the day.”

    Neocutis Lumiere Eye Cream dramatically reduces wrinkles, fine lines, puffiness, and dark circles in the eye area. Eyelid skin is the thinnest skin in the body, of fragile nature that requires extra care.

    NeoCutis Lumiere helps to promote youthful more vibrant skin around and under the eyes. neocutis-eye-cream

    Neocutis is available at Adonis Aesthetics in Pueblo.

  2. Beauty Recipe: Tips for drinking more water

    February 24, 2010 by lbittenbender

    Shonna Dent, Office Manager, massage therapist and aesthetician at Adonis, has created various Beauty Recipes for our clients.

    Check out her tip for drinking more water:j0321111

    WATER, Agua, H2O: You have heard it before and you will hear it again, our bodies are made up of 75 % water, so it is crucial that we replenish water throughout the day.

    Here is a tip: Buy or “home-make” a fun water bottle that has positive wording on it. You then make it a point to drink and drink from the bottle all day long.

    If you tape positive affirmations such as; “Drink me for life”, “I am beautiful”, “I love the way cool water makes my skin look” and so forth, you will find that you cannot wait to drink more water!

    Also, toss in a lime, lemon or even a couple oranges into your water for a citrus taste that is mouth watering!

  4. Adonis Aesthetics Patients Share How Their Recent Procedure Have Changed Their Lives

    February 19, 2010 by lbittenbender

    I recently had the Body Jet liposuction on my thighs, which did not require anesthesia and I was told that other people were going back to work the very next day.

    The people at Adonis were very kind and helpful in answering all of my questions. I have all the confidence in Adonis Aesthetics with Dr. Shinn. She was great to work with. I would recommend Dr. Shinn and the Adonis staff to anyone interested in liposuction. Why travel further when we have them right here?

    Signed,
    Lisa H.

    Your understanding of women’s issues and professionalism are one of a kind in the medical profession.

    Your intervention has changed my life. I was so scared when I came in the first time and wondered if I was being conceited or vain..now I realize I was just searching for that “happy spirit” to match my inner light and energy. “Thank You” only seems too simple to say but it is heartfelt to you and your staff!

    Thanks Again,
    Satisfied Patient


  5. One of the Best Ingredients In Anti-Aging Products: High Protein Skin Care

    February 17, 2010 by lbittenbender

    An article on “Anti-Aging Infozine” talks about companies who are “changing the face of anti-aging skincare.”

    They explain the benefits of High Protein Skin Care by Neocutis, which is available at Adonis Aesthetics. neocutis-psp

    PSP-Neocutis

    Neocutis has created a revolutionary new anti-aging skincare product known as Processed Skin Cell Proteins (or PSP).

    Developed in Switzerland, PSP is a natural ingredient for the skin that is derived from cultured skin cells.

    PSP has the unique ability to mimic exactly what the body does naturally in terms of renewing and restoring itself. PSP by Neocutis increases the mitochondrial work of the cells and essentially tricks the older cells into believing they are younger than they are.

    This means that aging and sun damaged skin cells become energized, revitalized and nourished!

    Applying PSP on a daily basis will improve the texture and the tone of your skin; decrease the amount of fine lines and wrinkles; help to get rid of the signs of sun damage, and make your skin look younger and more radiant.

  7. Top 5 Aesthetic Trends for 2010 - Adonis Aesthetics in Pueblo

    February 12, 2010 by lbittenbender

    The International Association For Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine (IAPAM)Announces Top 5 Aesthetic Trends for 2010: DIY is Out, Physicians are In

    1. Decline of DIY: Doctors will re-position themselves with professional training.

    The recent rash of DIY disasters reported in both the online & print media and on television, and the forecast is for more and more patients to seek out trained physicians to provide minimally-invasive procedures like: botox, dermal fillers, etc.

    As the Medical Director of Adonis Aesthetics, Dr. Rina Shinn is also a board certified General Surgeon and a Fellow of American College of Surgeons who has been in a general surgery practice in Pueblo, serving Southern Colorado since 1997.staff_dr_shinn.

    In 2008, Dr. Shinn decided to expand her expertise in laser aesthetic fields. She was drawn to aesthetic surgery because it offers a chance to help people in a different way. Learn more about Dr. Shinn here.

    2. Cosmetic Injectables: Still the procedures of choice over the scalpel istock_7020296_botox-300x199

    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.

    “Have Your Fill Friday”
    Save 10% on your Botox or Filler. (Minimum 30 units on Botox). Save 15%, when you combine 30 units (or more) of Botox, and a Filler.

    3. Medical Weight Loss Management: Key growth area for physicians

    Globally, the World Health Organization estimates that 400 million people are obese, and 78 million Americans are classified as obese. This number is projected to increase to 700 million world-wide by the year 2015. People tired of yo-yo diets and special meals, are looking to physicians to assist in permanent weight loss.

    Dr. Shinn has created the Adonis Diet which combines HCG weight loss strategies with a behavioral modification program.

    4. Body Shaping: New non-invasive technologies offer tremendous advancements

    Dr. Shinn was the first physician in Colorado to perform Body Jet, the most gentle form of liposuction that will leave you with an amazing new shape. The quick recovery allows you to get on with your life.
    Learn more.

    5. Cosmetic Dentistry: Advancements will capture more of the aesthetic medicine market

    Obviously, Dr. Shinn doesn’t practice Cosmetic Dentistry. We recommend Aesthetic Dentistry by Design. Check out their website
