1. Adonis Beauty Expert Shonna Dent Shares The Hottest Makeup Colors for Spring

    March 30, 2010 by lbittenbender

    Our very own Shonna Dent was on KKTV this morning demonstrating spring makeup tips.

    What’s hot in Spring 2010? Bold, dramatic eyes as inspired by the Alice in Wonderland movie.

    Shonna uses a pallet of purples and blues from glominerals, which is available from Adonis.

    Coral is also hot for spring. Shonna uses a lip crayon from glominerals in “countless coral” to create a dramatic lip.

  2. Dr. Rina Shinn of Adonis Aesthetics is the First Surgeon in Pueblo to Provide Transumbilical Breast Augmentation

    March 29, 2010 by lbittenbender

    Commonly referred to as T.U.B.A., scarless or belly button breast augmentation, Dr. Shinn increases the breast size by implanting breast implants through the navel or belly button. Besides eliminating scars on or near the breasts, this method allows both breast implants to be placed through a single incision.

    The surgery is executed under intravenous sedation, also sometimes referred to as Light Sleep (Twilight) or IV sedation, combined with local anesthesia. Patients only need about 20 to 30 minutes of recover to be awake and ready to go home.

    T.U.B.A. uses a sub-pectoral implant placement allowing many women who have little or no breast tissue to have adequate tissue coverage over the edges of the implants. Many women report that this placement gives them a more natural, sloping result — rather than an abrupt roundness of the upper poles of the breast. There is also less breast droopiness in the future.

    From the umbilical incision, Dr. Shinn makes a track in the upper abdomen using a jet of numbing solution and creates a pocket either on top of the pectorals muscle or below the muscle depending on the patient’s situation.

    Next, a tissue expander is used to slowly separate the breast and connective tissues (or the pectorals muscle as well) from the underlying muscle to create a pocket for the implants.

    The implant is rolled up and inserted in the same manner as the tissue expander. After the breast implants have been positioned inside their respective pockets, they are filled with saline.

    Advantages of T.U.B.A.

    * Faster surgery, more accurate and less invasive procedure.
    * Creates a larger breast without visible scars on the breasts or in the armpit.
    * Far fewer complications and less physical stress.
    * Less downtime and unnecessary post-operative care.
    * There is no tension on the incision line which can cause opening of the wounds which may lead to infection and unsightly stretched scars.
    * Less surgical materials (less sutures, surgical sponges, surgical tape, and gauze).
    * Chances of infections are greatly lessened due to the placement of the incision and the lack of implant-breast tissue exposure.
    * Bleeding is extremely uncommon.
    * Patients only need about 20 to 30 minutes to be awake and ready to go home.

  3. The Adonis Diet Combines the Effective and Immediate Benefits of HCG + Behavior Modification

    March 26, 2010 by lbittenbender

    What type of food habits do you have?BBE085

    Are you an “Inhaler”?

    How’s your water intake? Do you drink enough? (4-5 liters a day)

    Do you eat infrequently?

    Do you eat when you get stressed out?

    The Adonis Diet combines the effective and immediate benefits of an HCG diet program, along with a behavior modification program.

    Short term procedures to lower the weight drastically like an HCG program will force you to lose weight temporarily, but the body will come back with a vengeance when you go back to eating in an unorganized fashion.

    During the 10-Week Adonis Diet, you will learn how to eat properly:
    • How to be engaged in your parasympathetic nervous system and how to listen to your GI hormonal signals that tell you when you are hungry and when to stop eating.
    • When to eat, and how to fit multiple eating into your schedule.
    • How to stop eating when the calorie intake is adequate.
    • How to prepare food in as natural a state as possible.
    • How to eat in a proper setting and how to give proper respect for eating.

    You will also gain an appreciation for the flavors of natural food, devoid of all the artificial flavorings or sweeteners.

  5. Post Lipo Pilates

    March 22, 2010 by lbittenbender

    crisscross-2Body Jet is by far the most gentle type of liposuction that will transform your body and leave you with an amazing new shape. Even though Dr. Shinn removes fat cells during the Body Jet procedure, if you gain weight, the remaining fat cells can get larger.

    Pilates and core strength training are excellent in helping patients maintain their surgery results. Toning and strengthening the underlying muscles of the affected area will guarantee a much smoother appearance.

    Dr. Shinn has partnered with Farah Mitchell of Therafit Pilates who has provided five core strengthening moves for quick and impressive body toning.

    Proper Pilates form focuses on engaging the deeper abdominal muscles therefore the results are quick and impressive.
