Skin Care

More than 80% of aging today is a direct result of the environment (primarily sun exposure) and approximately 10% is genetic. Even though we may not age in the same manner as our parents emotional stress and significant weight loss

fluctuations are also major factors. Daily, simple, skin care ---- two minutes in the morning and two minutes at night ---- can stall the aging process by years. Recommendations for at-home preventive maintenance, as well as monthly facial club memberships, are available.

Special Treatments

CACI is a non-surgical facelift and body toning for those who are not good candidates for surgery. Comfortably reduces fatty tissue and facial lines. The Biotherapeutic Computer is the original medical unit in use for over 20 years and has patented wave forms that literally reshape tissue by gentle stimulation of facial and neck muscle groups. No muscle contractions are incurred. Doctors today are more open to alternate methods which give hope to many who do not elect surgical procedures. This system may also be used on the torso and limbs. Number of treatments vary per client. Complete face and neck toning average 18 to 22 sessions.

COLOR TINTING with FDA approved vegetable dyes enhances brows and lashes making them look fuller.
