It seems like yesterday when the Thermage CPT-Precision was being introduced. Below is the first release about the new tip.

OCTOBER 12, 2009
Newest Thermage CPT Vibrating Face Tip Yields Maximum Skin Tightening with Minimal Discomfort. Thermage grants Dr. Lisa Zdinak exclusive access to debut the Thermage CPT Face Tip with Vibrating Handpiece in New York City.

Lisa A. Zdinak, M.D., Chief Surgeon and Medical Director of Precision Aesthetics and three-time Pinnacle Award Winning Thermage Physician, is pleased to have been chosen by Thermage to exclusively debut the Thermage CPT Face Tip and Vibrating Handpiece in New York City.

How does this latest technology differ from previous offerings?

Thermage CPT stands for “Comfort Pulse Technology” and is representative of Thermage’s continued efforts to provide the most effective and comfortable skin tightening treatment available on the aesthetic market today. Comfort Pulse Technology achieves the following:

Greater Skin Tightening Through A New Heating Algorithm
The redesigned facial treatment tips deliver enhanced heat distribution and uniformity, which lead to improved volumetric heating. A greater volume of tissue is heated to target temperatures and the heating is more evenly distributed across the treatment area. Data from clinical studies demonstrate that the Thermage CPT system heats four times more tissue to therapeutic temperatures than current technologies. This translates into even more skin tightening than what was available with the prior facial tips!

Increased Comfort Through “Comfort Pulse Technology”
The new Thermage CPT system employs “Comfort Pulse Technology” along with a new vibrating handpiece to enhance efficacy and greatly improve patient comfort.

The new CPT technology helps lessen discomfort in the following ways:
1. A new vibrating handpiece offers a clinically proven improvement in patient comfort. In controlled, split-faced clinical studies, comparing treatment of over 40 patients with vibration to treatment without vibration, all patients preferred being treated with vibration.
2. The new energy delivery algorithm interweaves pulsed radio frequency delivery with cooling bursts mimicking Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (“TENS”) therapy, to disrupt the brain’s neural response and improve comfort during treatment.
3. The heat is now more concentrated directly into the tissue being treated with less spillage onto the edges of the tip, eliminating that “pinch” at the end of the energy pulse.

Thermage is a safe, non-invasive skin-tightening procedure with no downtime that is clinically proven to tighten, contour, and rejuvenate the skin in a single treatment. Immediate results are visible and continue to improve for up to six months.

Hello All of my Precision Aesthetics Family!

Just a quick note to let you know that I will be featured on television next week, so set your DVR’s! Friday, August 10th CBS “The Couch” from 7AM-9AM Dr. Lisa with Katie McGee.

As some of you already know CBS was in the office last week filming a focus piece on “The Vampire Facelift” or what is more accurately called “PRP” or “Platelet Rich Plasma” therapy for anti-aging and facial rejuvenation.

I have been pioneering this procedure for the last two years and it seems that it has caught media fire again [Angelina Jolie recently had it, I gotta love Angie]!

In the segment, Katie visits our office and I show you on live models how the blood fillers are prepared and used as both a skin-saving treatment and a custom made dermal filling agent. The producer was very interested in all of the unique, international treatments that we offer and I dare say that perhaps a lovely partnership has been formed.

So tune in Friday, August 10th CBS “The Couch” from 7AM-9AM with Dr. Lisa and Katie McGee.

Have a Beautiful Day!

Dr. Lisa

But more and more thinner people are reporting the problem. One thing for sure and that is the condition is unsightly and embarrassing. Often, cellulite will appear worse in those with poor circulation, which affects the blood flow and capillaries, or where the lymphatic system is sluggish.

Today, there is much hope with a new laser product called “Cellulaze” that the FDA has recently approved for use by certified physicians and dermatologists. Up to now there have been many products on the market that claim to rid the skin of cellulite. Many of the treatments have been topical creams. Some work well and others do not. Many use massage along with the creams to help smooth out the cellulite ‘dimples’. Creams along with massage are quick fixes only. Now the first real new technology has arrived on the scene with almost instant positive results and the results will continue up to 6-12 months after the first treatment.

Cellulaze is a new anti-cellulite treatment that has been clinically proven to increase your skin’s natural thickness. This change creates a smoother, tighter and healthier look that will last and last, after just one anti-cellulite treatment. Contact your local dermatologist and make an appointment to learn more about this welcome new treatment for cellulite. Be sure to mention that you only are interested in the Cellulaze cellulite treatment.
