Many ask why should I pay someone to clean it for me? I wash my face morning and night and use all of the highest tech facial cleansing equipment and taking an hour out of my day is just too much time. However, getting regular facials is one of the best things you can do to help keep you and your skin looking young, fresh and rejuvenated. It is also important to understand what your skin type is, which a trained esthetician can teach you in order to know what products are really best for your skin. Professional facial treatments can be relaxing and rejuvenating, but also help set the stage for beautiful skin in the future. At BHPSG, our esthetician can provide a detailed and accurate analysis of your skin as well as create an appropriate treatment plan  with recommendations for your home care to enable you to meet your skin care goals. When getting regular facials, you will notice that your skin will look and feel better then it ever has and make up will go on more smoothly making you look better then ever before! Typically a facial deep cleans, exfoliates & nourishes the skin to promote a clear, well-hydrated complexion. On your initial treatment, our esthetician will start with a skin analysis and explain which treatment will be best for you. She will then proceed with an hour long treatment using Eminence products, a completely organic line, which has products that address all different types of skin conditions. During the deep cleansing portion of the facial, our esthetician will rid the skin of dirt, debris and environmental toxins, allowing the skin to fight off disease, aging and enable your skin to better absorb the products applied months after your facial. Next, our esthetician will exfoliate your skin which will also boost your skins ability to absorb products. Exfoliating the skin involves removing the oldest dead skin cells on the surface of the skin. During this process, steam vapor is directed at your face to help open up pores even more to loosen dirt in your skin. Opening up the pores also allows for easier extractions (removing blackheads and whiteheads). Once extractions are done, you will receive a facial massage and masque which will bring nutrients and moisture to the deeper layers of the skin and promote a healthy glow as well as detoxify and relax you. After a facial with our esthetician, you will leave the office feeling great about yourself with healthier more beautiful skin! Give us a call today and schedule your facial with Talia!

A brow lift raises the eyebrows to reveal a more alert and more youthful position. Eyelid surgery as well as a face lift may be done in conjunction with a brow lift to receive maximum benefits. A brow lift may sometimes be performed using an endoscope (surgical video device) and special instruments placed through small incisions made within the hairline. This allows the tissue and muscle beneath the skin to be re-positioned, altered or removed, correcting the source of visible creases and furrows in the forehead. Correction of a low-positioned or sagging brow may be made with or without the use of an endoscope through incisions at the temples and in the scalp. This technique may be done in conjunction with incisions hidden within the natural crease of the upper eyelids to eliminate frown lines between the brows, on or above the bridge of the nose. An alternative brow lift technique is the coronal brow lift. The coronal brow lift can pinpoint specific regions of the brow to correct. This technique involves an incision from ear to ear, lifting the forehead and removing excess skin from the scalp. Recovery time is often longer than the endoscopic brow lift due to the size of the incision. The incision lines from a brow lift are well concealed within the hair or natural contours of the face unless they are placed at the hairline to shorten the forehead. Results appear gradually as swelling and bruising subside to reveal smoother forehead skin and a more youthful, rested appearance. Initial wound healing may take 5 to 10 days, at which time any sutures or clips will be removed. You will be ready to return to work and normal activity at this time. Cosmetics can camouflage any bruising that remains. Healing will continue for several weeks as the swelling dissipates and incision lines refine and fade and it may take several months for your complete recovery. Life-long sun protection will help to maintain your rejuvenated appearance by minimizing photo-aging or sun damage.
