Cosmetic Laser Surgery: The Cutting Edge
Laser surgery has become the cutting edge in cosmetic medicine. Why? Because it's able to accomplish just as much as invasive surgical techniques in less time and with faster recovery rates. Using laser surgical techniques is also more precise, and produces less bleeding, bruising and scarring. A patient will typically get an injection of anesthetic, making the procedure painless, and be done in 30-40 minutes. (Read more about Cosmetic Laser Surgery: The Cutting Edge)

Expert Commentary: Carolyn Jacob M.D. - March 19, 2010
The recent study at the Hallym University in the Republic of Korea describes how ellagic acid, which is found in many common fruits (raspberries, strawberries, pomegranate), may one day help prevent wrinkles.
These and other potentially helpful compounds are produced and accumulated in plants. Many of these, such as the flavonoid group, have been studied extensively for their health benefits. Most have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer effects. Recently, studies have been performed using phytochemicals topically on the skin to reverse or prevent sun damage.

Winterizing Your Skin
Once autumn arrives, Michael Panella can be found spending a lot of time outdoors. He loves taking on home projects that allow him to work in his back yard. But, the dropping temperature causes Michael’s rosacea, a flushing and redness of the skin, to flare up. “My cheeks, the bridge of my nose, it’s exacerbated tremendously by the cold,” says Michael. Skin conditions like rosacea, acne and dry skin generally worsen in the winter months. “The cold weather takes its toll on the skin; the second- forced hot air and the low humidity that causes indoor creates a big problem for the skin; and the third – are winds, winds are very, very traumatic for the skin,” explains Dr. Mitchell Chasin, Director of the Reflection Center for Skin and Body. Dermatologist, Dr. Mitchell Chasin says winterizing your skin in preparation for the cooler months ahead can make all the difference. “In the summer or in the fall time before their skin has become dry, before it’s become red and flaky; it’s much easier to prevent the skin from getting dry than to treat it once it has,” reports Dr. Chasin.

Dyplastic Nevus
There’s still a lot of summer left; in fact, the hot weather is making the beach and pool look really good. But the accumulated sun exposure, as I’m certain you’ve heard, puts us at risk for skin cancer, and precancrous lesions. How do you know if a freckle is something to worry about? Many of us, like Buffy Schneit, don’t even think about it. “Most people spend their summer sin the sun so you don’t think anything is going to happen to you.” Buffy has been a sun lover for her entire life and has never thought about getting her skin checked, until she went to a free screening. “They said lets check this one freckle and I said ok and they scarped this one freckle, I didn’t think anything again and when they went back to the results. They said, oh, you have a dysplastic nevus. It was very scary.” Scary--because dysplastic nevus, which is an unusual mole, can, if unchecked, become cancerous. (Read more about Dyplastic Nevus)
