It’s been a heck of a week. I considered not posting this week, given everything going on in our country, but thought it might be nice to take a small break from the news. I’m praying for peace, dialogue, a greater understanding, and reconciliation as so many people in our country are hurting in many ways. I hope this message finds you safe and healthy.

I’d like to share with you five of the hottest “Spring Cleaning” treatments in cosmetic medicine today.

1. Renuvion (formerly J Plasma) – Renuvion is the newest, minimally-invasive treatment to tighten skin. It utilizes a probe that is inserted under the skin to release plasma energy to create heat from the inside-out. This stimulates tightening of the skin’s collagen. The results so far are pretty impressive! Time will tell whether this treatment has staying power!.

2. YPS Gold FillTox Facial – This facial skin rejuvenating treatment was the most popular procedure performed by my aestheticians prior to the quarantine. It combines gold-tipped microneedling with superficial injections of a proprietary combination of Botox, hyaluronic acid filler, and growth factors to smooth, plump, and hydrate the skin long-term. It’s the perfect post-quarantine treatment!

3. Emsculpt – Tighten your abs and/or lift your butt now that it’s swimsuit season! This non-invasive treatment uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate your muscles to flex 20,000 times in one thirty minute session. It can be used to visibly sculpt your abs, tone your biceps or calves, and lift and plump your buttocks! Results can be seen within a couple weeks, just in time to look great at the beach.

4. Platelet Rich Plasma – PRP can be used for a variety of treatments, including combining it with microneedling to de-age the skin, injecting it into the scalp to thicken hair, and spraying it under the skin during a facelift to reduce bleeding. It is the backbone of regenerative medicine treatments.

5. Emsella – This new option to strengthen the pelvic floor and reduce urinary incontinence uses technology similar to Emsculpt. It’s basically a chair that you sit on, stimulating 11,000 Kegel exercises in 28 minutes. Although we haven’t tested it out at YPS yet, I hear the results are pretty impressive.
