Get Ready For Celebrating Now

Hi Friends!
As we so abruptly change seasons and put the dog days of summer behind us….yes, Florence, it’s time to think about getting ready for all the celebrations ahead. You know, that the election will soon be behind us, we’ll be stuffing ourselves with turkey in no time, attending oodles of parties, opening pretty packages, spending too much family time together, etc., etc….

All kidding aside, if you do want to look and feel your best, don’t wait a minute longer. Call, text or e-mail me for a free consultation. I can help you look younger, fresher, and happier with my fabulous potions, treatments, and free advice. It’s up to you to get moving.

I so often have to disappoint people who haven’t allowed enough time to get a treatment program going. It takes time to age and it also takes time to undue the march of time.  But it is possible!

Obagi skin care products are the all the rage in my clinic this year. People are still holding their money pretty tight but they know when they invest in a professional skin care system, they will see results! Botox and peels are two other very popular treatments this season.

Psssss…bring a new client to me and you both will get $50 off your next Botox treatment. Just tell me about seeing this limited time offer. I do mean limited as my offer will expire Dec. 1, 2012

Happy Fall everyone! Call me today at 360-676-1111 to set up your appointment. Obagi, Colorescience, Neocutis, Latisse, Botox, Clarisonic, and laser treatments are waiting for you.

My Best,
Nancy, RN

Are you looking and feeling your best at work? Obagi Says:

In today’s busy, get-it-done-yesterday world, it can be difficult to find time for the most important person: yourself. That’s why we’re taking some time off in June to celebrate Professional Wellness Month! We could all use a reminder now and then that looking and feeling fantastic—yes, even while at work—are key to our overall health. If you count yourself among the 40 percent of Americans who consider their job to be very stressful,1 Professional Wellness Month is the perfect opportunity to get back into the habit.

To better enjoy the 9-to-5 grind, consider these useful tips.

•Keep active. We’ve all been there—some weeks just seem to slog on endlessly, while others are over before you know it. The secret? You must keep active! Sitting at a computer for 8 hours straight takes a toll on your body, and you can bet you’ll start to feel it by the time Friday rolls around. Do yourself a favor by taking a 10-minute break at least once every hour or two. Head outside, breathe in some fresh air, and go for a walk around the block—your body will thank you.
There are also small ways you can get in a bit of exercise even as you’re sitting. Try doing butt crunches while in front of the computer or bringing small weights into the office and pumping a bit of iron on your lunch break. Who knows? You may even start a trend.

•Take time for you. While you’re at it, try to avoid eating lunch at your desk. It can be difficult to convince yourself that you have 30 to 60 minutes to spare, but itvs better to stay a bit late than not to have taken any breaks throughout the day. Be kind to yourself—if you feel the stress starting to overwhelm your psyche, close your eyes, breathe deeply, and take a moment to decompress.
•Relax. Stress can have a number of negative effects on your body, including your skin. Relaxing can help you feel better, which leads to a more beautiful you on the outside as well as on the inside. It also pays to experience a breather every morning with a skin care routine that you know can deliver results, such as the Obagi Nu-Derm® System. As our #1 physician-dispensed system, it’s clinically proven to transform your skin at the cellular level, thus helping to diminish dark spots and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by aging and sun damage.
Professional Wellness Month is the perfect opportunity to take a step back and figure out what you can do to improve your well-being. If you’ve been meaning to take care of yourself a bit better, now’s your chance!

Summer is around the Corner and Obagi says:

Get Ready for Summer!  Advice from the wonderful folks at Obagi:

 

Summer is right around the corner, and you know what that means—time to open up the windows, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the outdoors as much as possible. Before you get to show off that new bathing suit and hit the beach, here are a few other things to consider to look and feel great all season long!

• Apply sunscreen properly. Saying “yes” to sunscreen is one of the best ways to protect yourself from the harsh rays of the sun. Be generous with your application and make sure to reapply at least once every 2 hours—more frequently if you’re sweating or jumping in the pool. Also, try to slather it on at least 30 minutes before going outside so you can get the most protection. Obagi Nu-Derm Sun Shield SPF 50 not only shields against UVB and UVA rays, its non-greasy formula applies completely sheer in an elegant, matte finish that feels great on your skin.
• Buy a new hat. There’s no better time to show off a stylish hat than the spring and summer (other than a royal wedding, of course!). Between wide-brimmed options, caps and yes, even visors, there’s bound to be something out there for every outfit. Remember, hats will allow you to stay fashionable while protecting your face from harmful UV rays.
• Find your perfect sandals. Be kind to your feet. It can be easy to wear out sandals after a year or two, which is also a great excuse to buy a new pair! Stylish ones are always nice, but try to find something that keeps you comfortable. And because nothing goes better with new sandals than smooth feet and freshly polished toes, treat yourself to a pedicure! Also, don’t forget to apply sunscreen. Your feet deserve the same sun protection as your face and arms, but often get overlooked.
• Give your skin some additional TLC. This is the prime time for showing off some skin, so why not take some steps to make sure yours is at its best? The winter can cause skin dryness, so be sure to moisturize and exfoliate your body so it looks and feels soft and supple. Sunless tanners are also a great way to get a gorgeous glow.

Gearing up for the summer isn’t difficult, but it does take a little bit of prep work. What else are you doing to get ready for the warm weather season?

Has the rainy, …

Has the rainy, gray weather got you down?  Soon it will be spring and summer….time to show some skin.  Are you ready?  Our current crummy weather is the perfect time to be getting laser treatments.  Don’t wait for the sun to get you motivated.  Laser treatments for hair reduction and skin rejuvenation are not appropriate for recently tanned skin.  Your best results come when skin is fair and hair is dark.  Brown spots also respond better to treatment when skin is pale.

We can treat most areas with underarms, faces, bikini, and legs being very popular.  Don’t wait until it is too late.  Call me today for your complimentary consultation.  Call 360-676-1111 for an appointment.  We are located in the Barkley Village neighborhood at 2930 Newmarket St. #115.

Holiday Blues or Happiness?

Winter is setting in. Are you ready for shorter days and cooler temperatures? A flurry of family visits and social festivities? An ever-growing holiday to-do list? The weeks ahead are exciting but they can be stressful, too. Try beating the holiday blues with a visit to Puget Sound Cosmetic Laser that will help you look better, feel better – and get through the season with a smile.

How about a Obagi Radiance Facial Peel to help perk up your complexion? Botox or fillers to help erase a little time? A new eye treatment to help camouflage the late nights? How about a photofacial that actually increases collagen and decreases signs of sun damage and aging?

I have several wonderful husbands and partners that are solving their gift-giving dilemmas this year with a gift certificate from Puget Sound Cosmetic Laser. They can be purchased in any amount and used for both products and services.

Call or e-mail me today and let me assist you in caring for yourself and others.  Happy Holidays everyone:)

Puget Sound Cosmetic Laser has a new location

Nancy's Mayan Riviera Vacation

Good afternoon! I just wanted to let everyone know that we have moved to a fabulous new location at 2930 Newmarket St. #115 in the Barkley Village neighborhood.  I hope you check out our new digs very soon.  We have a beautiful new office and are conveniently located near Barkley Haggens, Starbucks, Cuts Plus, and John L. Scott Real Estate. Our office is open Monday through Friday 9-5.  I am still working Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday by appointment. Stop by and say hi!  October Botox will be administered soon and appointments are filling quickly so give me a call so I can reserve a spot for you.  (360-676-1111)   Summer sun has given many of us a few more wrinkles and brown spots. Let me help you reverse these annoying signs of aging. Remember…don’t stop using your daily facial sunscreen just because we aren’t seeing so much of the sun now. It still is a vital part of your anti-aging routine.

My Best,
Nancy
