Every year, winter seems to take a harsh toll on us all. As we seek refuge indoors from the frigid temperatures, it’s far too easy to overindulge during our hibernation (why go exercise when you can curl up and watch Netflix on the warm sofa?). When we do brave the cold, our skin takes a beating from the cruel winds and dry air, leaving us robbed of moisture. So if you find yourself scrambling for ways to shake the winter blues as spring slowly begins to take bloom, we’re here to help. Here are some procedures we offer at our practice that will have you walking into the season ahead with confidence and feeling like your best self.
GET BATHING SUIT READY WITH COOLSCULPTING
If you’re hoping that “shedding winter layers” means more than ditching your sweater and coat, CoolSculpting® is a great way to reduce those unwanted, stubborn bulges of the abdomen, flanks, back, inner and outer thighs, arms, under the chin and other areas. This completely noninvasive, safe and effective way to eliminate unwanted body fat is perfect for candidates who are within 20-30 pounds of their ideal body weight. Furthermore, Dr. Biesman has served as an advisor to the company that developed the CoolSculpting technology for many years and remains a member of the company’s Medical Advisory Board. Best results are typically seen 3 months after treatment, so now is the time to book your consultation!
PREPARE FOR SPRING EVENTS WITH INJECTABLES
Whether you’ll be attending a gala, a wedding or another special event, ideally your facial injections should be performed at least one month prior. Regardless of what you’re looking to treat (unwanted wrinkles, lines in the upper and lower face, deep circles under the eyes, sagging of the cheeks, a tired or sad-looking mouth, jowling, unwanted fat under the chin, etc.), we offer a wide range of injectable products such as Botox®, soft tissue fillers and Kybella®. These products are simple adjustments that Dr. Biesman specializes in and can provide subtle, yet incredible results to help you look and feel your best!
GET RID OF RAZORS WITH LASER HAIR REMOVAL
If you’re looking to head to a warm weather destination anytime soon or simply preparing for warmer weather here in Nashville, you’ll likely be wishing you had laser hair removal at some point. While a series of treatments is required in order to achieve the best outcomes, it’s always a great time to start so you can get closer to saying “farewell” to razors (and more importantly, razor burn)! The most common areas treated with laser assisted hair removal are the face, underarm and bikini area in women (but we treat everything from cheeks, upper lip, sideburns, chin, legs, the chest and back depending on your needs).
NURTURE WINTER SKIN + PREP FOR THE SUN
As previously mentioned, our skin usually needs a lot of TLC this time of year. Between the lack of moisture from the dry winter air and heading into seasons of extra sunshine, there is plenty you can do to not only fix what winter has done, but also prepare for what’s ahead. For starters, having medical grade skin care and proper sun protection as part of your daily regimen is the foundation for healthy skin. Our team is highly skilled and knowledgeable on this topic and can help custom tailor a routine that fits your skin’s needs. If you’re looking to take things a step further and address some red or brown discoloration on your face, neck, and/or chest skin, you might consider Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). IPL treatments can correct the red and brown skin tones resulting from sun exposure and aging. The face, neck and chest are the most commonly treated areas although the arms, legs, back and shoulders respond beautifully to treatment as well. Finally, if you’re looking to address more severe skin wrinkling or discoloration, we also offer varying intensities of laser skin resurfacing, which can result in regenerated skin that is smoother in texture and appears more youthful.
Regardless of what concerns you may have as we approach a new season, we’re confident our wide range of services can provide viable solutions for you. Contact our office by calling (615) 329.1110 to book a consultation and learn more.
