Article of the Week - Meet our “Ugly Bettie” Contest Winner

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

We have finished our make-over of Julie, our beautiful “Ugly Bettie” contest winner.  Julie was chosen because she has beautiful features but she needed some rejuvenation of her skin and refreshing of her eyes and mouth.  Age, sun and stress add years to our looks but thanks to cosmetic dermatology procedures such as Botox, fillers and lasers we can reverse many of these changes.   Julie had Botox to raise her brows and smooth out her crows feet, frown and forehead wrinkles.  We gave her Juvederm to enhance her lips and smooth her lip wrinkles, smile lines and marrionette lines and she received a series of IPL (photofacial) treatments to smooth her skin texture, remove her brown spots and even out her skin color.   Lastly, she received a spa makeover at my day spa and salon: Euro Day Spa, Salon & Laser Center where she received a light, natural makeup application and a hair style at our salon.   Here are her before and after photos.  You can see her lack of wrinkles better when she is not smiling, but I couldn’t resist putting in this smiling photo, as it truly expresses how she feels about her treatments.

Julie, you look gorgeous! Look for Julie’s comments about her treatments in an upcoming blog entry.   If you have any questions about how these cosmetic dermatology treatments or spa and salon treatments would work for you, please call our office at 949-363-1788 or Euro Day Spa, Salon & Laser Center at 949-831-2006.

Liquid Face Lift and Photo-Facials for our Ugly Bettie Contest Winner

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

We are pleased to announce that Julie R. has won our Ugly Bettie Contest. Julie’s hard work of raising a family for 20 years plus multiple stressful events in her life had begun to show on her face.  She is preparing to go out into the workforce again after being a stay-at-home mom for many years and needed our help.  Julie is a beautiful woman who could use some tuning up to bring back a more youthful look.  We chose Julie because we saw in her an amazing transformation waiting to take place and for her heart-felt story.

After my consultation with Julie we decided to treat her to a series of photo-facial treatments (IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light), a Liquid Face Lift consisting of Radiesse wrinkle treatments and cheek enhancements, Juvederm injections to define her lips and Botox to treat her frown lines and crows feet.  She also received a Vivite Skin Care System of skin care products to start her at-home skin rejuvenation.  Julie’s transformation should be complete sometime in November.  We’ll share her before and after photos with all of you then.
