READ ON FOR HOW YOU CAN RECOVER SUMMER SKIN!👇
Forgot your sunscreen one too many days? Tanned or burned? Little too much alcohol and too little water? Had a lot of fun but at the expense of adequate sleep?

The effects will show on your skin!
Here are treatments that can reverse the damage….

😊A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing procedure in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layers. The skin that grows back after a chemical peel is smoother and younger looking. Chemical peels treat wrinkles, scars, uneven skin tone and texture. Today’s chemical peels can can ensure your skin looks refreshed year-round. with little or no visible peeling.

😊Microneedling aka collagen induction therapy helps reduce the signs of aging by improving texture and firmness.  It can also reduce the appearance of acne scars. The treatment works by creating tiny punctures in the top skin layer that trigger the skin’s natural ability to repair itself whenever it encounters physical damage.  The result is younger looking skin.

☺️Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy uses the patient’s own blood as a form of regenerative medicine. It is administered in combination with microneedling to improve skin texture and even out skin tone. It can significantly reduce the appearance of acne scars, sun damage, or fine lines and wrinkles. It also Enhances and revitalizes the skins texture, elasticity, and tightens skin.

😊Medical or pharmaceutical grade skincare is offered by establishments that operate under a physician’s license. These products have many of the same key ingredients found in department store or cosmetic brands but at higher concentrations of the active ingredients. They are also formulated for better absorption into the skin. Medical grade skin care is a great way to upgrade your skincare game!

🤷🏻‍♀️MICRONEEDLING FACIALS act as NON-SURGICAL FACELIFTS! So why would anyone get a surgical facelift?

🤔GOOD QUESTION!

💉MICRONEEDLING Facials tighten skin, promote increase collagen production , and address signs of aging like: fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, hyperpigmentation and stretch marks. They can be done in-office in as little as 20 minutes with NO DOWN TIME. Minor redness and/ or irritation may happen but usually resolves in 1 to 3 days.

🩹Surgical Facials tighten and can contour even more deeply to the tissue and muscles beneath the skin. But it does not address other signs of aging. Risks and complications of facelift surgery include but are not limited to: bleeding; bruising; complications of anesthesia; hematoma; infection; and temporary numbness.

📣 CONCLUSION: 📣
Patients who desire the most dramatic facial tightening results and who want the results to last for many years should consider SURGICAL options and weigh the risks vs. the benefits.

Patients who desire skin tightening with more natural looking results that also addresses many other signs of aging without the risks/ downtime associated with surgery should consider NON-SURGICAL options like MICRONEEDLING. They should be prepared to repeat treatments yearly in order to maintain the results.

🩺Goldson Medical Associates offer both internal medicine AND medical cosmetic services like MICRONEEDLING, Botox and PRP Facials.

LIPOSUCTION and BTL VANQUISH are both procedures which target stubborn areas of fat.

Both yield permanent results. BTL VANQUISH treats smaller and more limited areas of the body while LIPOSUCTION can be used more widely and in larger areas.

For patients seeking to treat smaller areas, there are many reasons to choose BTL VANQUISH. Since it is a non-surgical procedure:
✅treatments can be done in less time (45 minutes compared to 1hour + with liposuction).
✅Recovery/down time is NONE!
✅final results may be seen as much as 1 month sooner
✅Minimal pain and/or swelling as opposed to weeks/months of pain and swelling associated with liposuction.
✅Avoids the risks of major surgery associated with liposuction like bleeding, infection, and an adverse reaction to anesthesia.

++++++ANOTHER PLUS+++++++
Unlike Liposuction which does not address cellulite, dimples, or stretch marks, BTL VANQUISH can be performed immediately followed by a BTL CELLUTONE treatment. The combination therapy helps to improve skin texture and tightening, AND promotes faster results!

Talk to a licensed provider about which procedure(s) would work best for you.

Goldson Medical Associates offer both internal medicine AND medical cosmetic services like BTL VANQUISH and CELLUTONE.

Monkeypox is a virus related to the virus that causes smallpox. Unlike smallpox, it’s not usually fatal. But it is highly contagious and can cause debilitating illness. Read below to learn how to identify it snd protect yourself and those around you.👇

SYMPTOMS
⚕️The distinguishing symptom of Monkeypox is skin rash that can appear anywhere on the skin surface as well as in the mouth, ge****ls and/or a**s. The rashes can look like pimples or blisters at first and progress through various stages for typically 2 to 4 weeks before healing. Some patients also experience flu like symptoms.

HOW IS IT TRANSMITTED?
👥The virus can spread from person-to-person through close contact with an infected person’s rash, scabs, bodily fluids or respiratory secretions. The virus can also be spread through contact with personal items that have been used by an infected person like their clothing, towels or sheets. Pregnant women can also transmit the virus to their fetus.

🐵The virus can spread from animals to humans if an infected animal bites, scratches or is consumed by a human.

HOW CAN WE PREVENT IT:
🧼As always, practice frequent hand washing and sanitizing as a first line of defense. Avoid close, skin-to-skin contact with people who have symptoms of monkeypox. Also avoid contact with their personal items like plates, cups, utensils, clothes and linens.

Vaccination
🩹CDC recommends vaccination for people who have been exposed to monkeypox and people who are at higher risk of being exposed to monkeypox, including:
👥Those who have had close contact with someone diagnosed with monkeypox;
👥People in high risk areas who have had multiple s*xual partners in the past 2 weeks;
👩🏾‍🔬lab workers and health workers who have likelihood of exposure to the virus

HOW IS IT TREATED?
💊Since monkeypox and smallpox viruses come from the same virus family, drugs and vaccines used to treat and prevent smallpox may be used for Monkeypox as well. If you have monkeypox symptoms, talk to your doctor even if you’re not sure you’ve been exposed.

There are new sub variants of the COVID-19 Omicron variant called BA.5 and BA.4. These sub variants are driving most of the new infections.

🤧BA.5 and BA.4 are both highly transmissible and antibody resistant. This means that people with antibodies from vaccines and/or previous infections are more at risk for infection and reinfection from this variant.

IT IS STILL IMPORTANT TO GET VACCINATED! HERE’S WHY👇

🩹Vaccinated patients still experience less severe illness and are less likely to be hospitalized than unvaccinated people. Patients who are currently hospitalized or succumbing to COVID-19 are still overwhelmingly those who are unvaccinated.

🤒BA.5 and BA.4 most typical symptoms include fever, body aches, chills and other cold-like symptoms. Many people find it to be quite debilitating. Ask your doctor about anti-viral treatments now available for COVID-19 as soon as you test positive. They can really help shorten and lessen the severity of symptoms.

🥴Remember other variants and sub variants are still in circulation. You cannot determine what to expect based on a previous experience with COVID-19 or someone else’s experience. Your immune response may be different than someone else’s.

😷 😷To protect yourself AND others around you who may not be able to weather an infection as well, continue to follow updated guidelines to reduce transmission. This will include wearing masks in indoor crowded environments. Also keep masks handy and wear them anytime social distancing will be difficult or you may end up in prolonged proximity (15 minutes or more) to those outside your household. Continue with frequent hand washing and avoiding proximity to anyone exhibiting symptoms.

BRAIN 🧠: We actually start our 50s with peak brain function. Most people report greater mental health as well. We can begin to lose brain function after 55 but this can be remedied with healthy lifestyle and keeping our brains engaged with learning and stimulating mental activities. Mental health can be affected by hormone shifts, economic, physical and social challenges of aging. Your doctor can help with medical intervention and lifestyle advice to help cope with any mental and emotional challenges.

BODY🏃🏾‍♀️:
💪🏻 Muscle and bone loss continues at a faster rate after 50. Cartilage in our Joints also begins to thin. A diet high in hydration, calcium and vitamin D along with regular weight bearing exercise can help keep us strong. Medical help is available to remedy bone loss and maintain healthy weight.
👁 lenses in our eyes continue to harden. Eye disease like cataracts can also begin to take hold. Get regular eye exams to monitor eye health and treat any deterioration as early as possible.
👂 Hearing loss happens to a lot of people due to heredity, illness and lifestyle hearing damage. Consult your doctor about treatment options if you notice hearing loss.
♥️Chances of heart attack go up. We can protect our hearts by getting at least 30 minutes of exercise most days and eating a balanced diet with plenty of whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Also, monitor and manage your weight and blood pressure with your doctor’s help.
💈For many, hair begins to thin and gray in our 50s. Skin will also more clearly show a lifetime of sun damage. Skin cancer also becomes more likely as we age. Wear sunscreen daily to help slow the signs of aging and prevent skin cancer. Medical grade treatments are available to help combat signs of aging.
🩻Consult your doctor about vaccines and screenings that become necessary due to weakening immune system and other changes as we age.

👀Changes that have been happening for years often become visible in our 40s.

🏋️‍♀️FITNESS:Lower metabolism, weight gain, muscle density loss and increased body fat that began in our 20s, usually begin to become noticeable in both men and women in their 40s. It’s not too late to get into a good exercise regimen or make adjustments according to your body’s changing needs.

🙄HORMONES: Estrogen and progesterone loss in women can cause period irregularity, hot flashes, vaginal dryness and other peri menopause symptoms; hair loss, brain fog and memory loss, and even affect bladder control. Symptoms are often mild and in early stages in our 40s but consult your doctor if they become disruptive. Treatments are available.

During the 40s, men’s bodies produce testosterone at declining rates. This leads to changes in physique as well as possible challenges with s*xual function. Talk to your doctor if these things become a concern. Treatments are available. Men’s risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes and prostate cancer also increase at this age. Talk to their doctor about regular screenings for these health issues.

👓 By mid 40s you may notice vision changes. A lot of people get reading glasses as near vision gets less focused due to presbyopia, or hardening of the eye’s lens. Get regular eye exams and follow your eye doctor’s advice to avoid straining your eyes further.

🪞Thinning, wrinkling, sagging skin also begin to become more noticeable in our 40s. Ethnicity and heredity affect rates of aging on but everyone should be cleansing, moisturizing and wearing sunscreen daily; consuming nutritious foods and drinking plenty of water. This not only combats the primary causes of aging skin but also helps prevent skin cancer. Skin cancer becomes more likely as we age in ALL ethnicities. Medical grade products are also available to combat the signs of aging skin.

Here are some changes to your body and health that may become noticeable to you.👇
If you know what to expect you can be less alarmed and more prepared for these changes.

🦵🏽Overall body fat increases as we age. In our 30s fat tends to build up more around the organs and decrease under the skin. This is more noticeable in some people than others based on heredity and body type. Consult a health professional about dietary and lifestyle changes to help manage increased body fat.

🦴lower bone and muscle density may become more noticeable in our thirties. Make sure you are getting at least 1000mg of calcium per day to prevent bone less and promote density. Consider adding more strength training to your exercise regimen to resist both bone and muscle loss.

😏Hormonal changes like reduced testosterone, human growth hormone (HGH) and progesterone all contribute to increased fat and reduced muscle. They can also lead to other noticeable changes in sleep, mood, s*x drive, fertility and menstrual cycles. Getting enough sleep, nutrition and exercise are important to helping maintain hormonal balance and manage symptoms of hormone changes. You can also talk to your doctor about different therapies if symptoms begin to negatively impact your life even after lifestyle changes.

🩹Skin recovery takes a little longer and elasticity decreases more noticeably. This is due to loss of collagen lower cell turnover. Hydration and sunscreen are two of the most important things you can be doing for your skin to help slow these effects of aging.

We expect a lot of changes to our bodies and health during puberty and elder years. But bodies are always in the process of changing with time. Follow this series on health changes in adult years so you can know what to expect and what to discuss with your doctor.

Let’s start with 20 to 30👇:

MENTAL HEALTH
🧠Many of us remember the angst of puberty. But mid-twenties are actually the most common age of onset for conditions like depression, anxiety and even diagnoses like Bipolar Disorder. This could be due to societal pressures and the newly introduced stresses of adulting among other things. Whatever the reason, if you’re not feeling your best mentally, you’re definitely not alone. Talk to your doctor.

💪🏻PHYSIQUE CHANGES
We should not be attached to our adolescent bodies. They aren’t meant to stay that way. Hormonal shifts can lead to changes in fat distribution and weight gain or loss. Bone mass and muscle strength tend to peak at this stage as well. This is normal and generally healthy. This is a good time to establish good fitness habits to take advantage of and prolong peak strength. If you are pre-disposed to obesity, this may be a good time to start talking to your doctor about weight management if you haven’t already.

🧕🏼WOMEN’S HEALTH
Due to stabilizing hormone levels, many women’s menstrual cycles become more regular in their 20s than they were in teen years. Hooray! If this does NOT happen for you, talk to your doctor about potential health issues related to irregular periods and your options for period management.

👃🏾SKIN
Hormonal shifts in both women and men can sometimes lead to skin changes. Some people’s skin may finally clear. Some people may experience adult onset acne. Adult acne can happen even if you didn’t have it in your teens. Usually it's a temporary condition, but treatments are available to help manage it if the problem persists".
