Yes, it's getting cooler but no—it doesn't mean you have to hibernate! Quite the opposite, in fact. Fall and winter are some of the best times of the year to book treatments at New Image! The cooler months are synonymous with staying warm and bunkering down but for those of us who want to look and feel good across ALL the seasons 🙋‍♀️—we are busy beavering away!

Hands up! Who wants to have that rested, “Have you been on vacation?” look 🙋‍♀️? Well then, facial filler is definitely your friend! The beauty of this treatment, when done by someone with experience and extensive training (yes, like our own Dr. Madsen ;) is that its power is in its subtlety.

I’ve never loved the term “anti-aging”—it suggests that aging is inherently bad and that we should rally against this inevitable fact of life at all costs! Like it or not, we do all get older—but instead of being “anti-aging,” how about we become “pro-glow” or “pro-radiance”? How about instead of worrying about aging and all its challenges, what if we simply do what we can to support ourselves and our skin to look its best? Yes! I like that!

You had the colossal sun hat, the cute, post-swim cover-up, and the sunscreen that went on like toothpaste—yet somehow those pesky red or brown spots still managed to creep in! Maybe your skin feels dehydrated, some new fine lines have appeared, or you noticed you have hair in places you’d rather not see! Yes, the summer sun is fun but what it leaves behind...not so much.

At New Image, we are always here ready to help you accelerate the changes you want to make you feel your most beautiful, confident self. But there are also many things you can be doing before that time comes (as well as during and after!) that will maximize the results you are looking to achieve.

Posing in front of the camera or the mirror when you’re not looking (or feeling) your best, most beautiful self is definitely something we see a lot of people struggle with when they first start their treatments at New Image. It is not uncommon to hear, “OH! I hate taking pictures and I DON’T want to look in the mirror!

The gorgeous warmer weather brings with it relaxing holidays, lazy days in the sun, and inevitably...bearing more flesh! Eeek! Suddenly those extra inches or bulges of fat are no longer so well-hidden under layers upon layers of clothes and can play on your mind and your confidence!

The summer sun has a way of making us feel young and free, but our skin old. Granted many people prefer that tan or bronze summer color but accumulated over time causes significant skin damage. As always I will tell you to enjoy the sun but do your best to prepare your skin for summer and know how to protect it from the sun’s damaging rays. Here are a few tips:

With the summer fast approaching, we start to think about time in the sun, by the pool, on the lake, on the golf course—you get the picture. TIME OUTSIDE! By this time of the year, we are ready for some time outside and we crave sunshine! Our clothing tends to get shorter—as in sleeves and pants give way to shorts/capris and tank tops. In the closet go the boots and out come the sandals!

You've often heard me say, we can't stop aging, but we can slow down the evidence of the aging. Well, this has changed! Now we have Forever Young BBL (FYBBL)! Not only can an FYBBL treatment regimen reduce the appearance and evidence of aging, but a study from Stanford University now validates that Forever Young BBL produces change at the molecular level by enhancing the expression of longevity-related genes in aged skin cells. What does that mean? Essentially, the aging process is reversed and returns skin to a genetically more youthful state!
