Apeele Review

December 5th, 2011

     The holidays are around the corner and the inevitable gathering of family and friends whom I haven’t seen for months, has me wanting to look my best!  I had some unwanted acne scars and hyper-pigmentation that needed some lightening, so I decided to try the chemical peel we offer here at Seaside Medical Practice, called Apeele.

Apeele is our choice chemical peel because it is not as harsh as the other medical grade peels in the market, yet strong enough to make a significant improvement on smoothening of fine lines, and tone evenness of the face, neck and hands.

Day 1.   My treatment was applied in the afternoon.  I experienced mild stinging during the procedure, which was relieved right away with a small fan.  Other than my face looking cleaner, I did not notice any significant difference.

Day 2.  I looked at myself in the mirror and noticed what appeared to be a mild sun burn!  I am naturally tan, and never burn, so I found this amusing.  My face felt tight and sensitive.  I applied the cream that came with the package of Apeele and felt better instantly.  Before leaving the house, did the SPF 50 UVA and UVB sunblock as instructed, and stayed out of the sun.

Day 3.  Talk about peeling!  I did not realize the extent to which my skin would peel!  The more I talked, smiled, and laughed as the day went on, the more my skin peeled.

Day 6.  Peeling is almost complete.  Skin felt dry, especially around my chin, though not as tender or red as before.  I applied a bit of hydrocortisone cream for a couple of days to relieve the dryness.

Day 8.  My peel is complete. My skin is flawless and brighter than ever.  It’s as though I’ve had a deep skin cleaning.  And I love being able to wear less foundation than usual!

The only thing I would do differently is have the peel done on a Thursday.  Then I would have the weekend to peel in private!  But looking at my skin now, and with all the compliments I’m receiving, Apeele was worth every dime! 

Call us if you are interested in flawless, even-toned skin with the help of Apeele.

The Good, the Bad, and the Beautiful

November 17th, 2010

In case you didnt know, Seaside Medical Practice offers several aesthetic procedures including Botox, Juvederm, Radiesse, Restylane and Dysport. Dr. Yazdani s techniques result in a very natural outcome. 

After seeing our patients results and satisfaction, I decided to jump on the rejuvenation wagon and try Radiesse! Its one of the newer, (practically painless) cosmetic fillers on the market, with the benefits of longer lasting effects for a price less costly than most filler products. I have to tell you, the men and women I have seen that have tried Radiesse have had instant, gratifying results and not a single person had bruising or swelling;  that is, until it was my turn. 

We always tell patients to stop taking aspirin or fish oil several days before any cosmetic procedure to prevent bleeding and swelling. In my great wisdom, I continued my fish oil and baby aspirin regimen and did not mention it to the doctor. Although I could instantly see the lessening of my deep nasal labial folds and watch my marionette lines disappear, I also saw some dark bruises and swelling, requiring ice packs for hours. So my personal word of caution is, before you have any cosmetic procedure, talk to the doctor and tell her what medications and supplements you are taking and if you are prone to bruising, as I am, consider taking a down day after the injections. 

It is now exactly one week since my Radiesse injections. I look fantastic!! Seriously, Im adorable!! The bruises and swelling are completely gone. My results are just what I wanted I look ten years younger, but my husband still recognizes me. I would do this again in a nanosecond! I love the way I look.
