Six weeks and counting to the Holidays, oh no! Oh yes, still plenty of time to Get Glossy.
Achieve that perfect glow with the Gloss Peel, something that you can find at Contemporary Plastic Surgery Skin Clinic in Central New Jersey. The Gloss Peel is Trichloracetic Acid (TCA) based and found only in physician’s office. This potent agent greatly improves the appearance of aging and sun damaged skin. Fine lines and wrinkles are refined to improve skin texture and decrease laxity and pore size. The Gloss Peel is a combination of TCA17%, Salycylic Acid 17% and Retinol 1%. The physical compounding characteristics of these acids allows for limited discomfort and cellular injury associated with physican strength peel solutions. The addition of Retinoids boosts the exfoliating effects of the peel solution, therefore, increasing the effectiveness of your treatment. TCA was never this sexy! And, you get to take home a beautiful kit consisting of a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser, emollient physical sunscreen, additional Retinoid treatment pads and the soothing Niacin (Vitamin B3) based moisturizer. The at home care kit accelerates the renewal of your skin, translating into comfort and little downtime. The Gloss Peel represents a new generation of multi-functional, non-wounding chemical peels (certainly not like Samantha from Sex in the City’s chemical peel episode).

Women considering breast augmentation with breast implants often ask me about the best time of year for their procedure. They want to make sure that they have time to recover so they can enjoy the results of their enhanced appearance in summer’s revealing attire, from sleeveless tops and tanks to bikinis.
At my New Jersey plastic surgery practice, women often choose the spring months to have their enhancement procedure. Typically, by scheduling their surgery in early spring, they can fully heal before the warm weather season begins. For breast augmentation, I use advanced surgical techniques that both reduce recovery time and hide signs of scarring.
After this type of procedure, women usually experience some soreness for just a few days. I use the ON-Q® pain reduction system to minimize post-operative pain. Swelling after surgery typically requires several weeks to completely subside. For most women, any visible scars fade significantly within the first few months, and are almost unnoticeable after you are fully healed.

Women aren’t the only ones who worry about aging in today’s world. Men worry about how they look too! There are many weapons we can use to prevent and slow the signs of aging, and most of these tools are right at your fingertips boys!
The first signs of aging in men usually show up around the eye region, which particularly makes a person look older. Frowning and squinting over the years, as well as other repetitive facial movements, contribute to fine lines and wrinkles. One way to prevent these unwanted changes is to continue wearing a daily sunblock. If you are not using one yet, you must begin wearing sunscreen TODAY!
The best sunblock is Anthelios by La Roche-Posay. It is the only sunblock on the market that contains mexoryl, an ingredient that protects your skin against UVA rays.
When we age our skin loses collagen which produces sagging and wrinkles. Using a retinol or Retin-A (tretinoin) can create new collagen minimizing the effects of time on our skin.
Another way to stimulate collagen for men is to grab your razor in the morning. Shaving removes the top layers of skin, which in turn stimulates collagen turnover. Reaching for the shaving cream can shave years off your face in one quick step!
These are three simple changes men can make to their daily routines to curtail the signs of the additional candles on your birthday cake. What are you waiting for? Grab your sunblock, retinols and razors today!
