News Flashes

A NEW edition of Sex, Lies and Cosmetic Surgery is finally in the works!




A beautiful, professionally designed back-of-the-book CD, is complete, at last! It took much longer than expected, but they tell me good things are worth waiting for, and this CD is positively wonderful! There is no other way to describe it! Not only does it contain click through links to 14 different forms and checklists, for easy reprinting, but it also provides a clever index of all book information, categorized into 9 major headings, with specific subheadings under each.
And there is much, much more, including some audio and video components.

But since a picture is worth a thousand words, click here to SEE how it works.

Stay Tuned: A New, Professioanl Edition, Virtual CD is now in the works.

New Article Added to My Website:

BEAUTY THE LASER WAY - THEN AND NOW

What changes we've seen in laser treatments in these past ten years! Laser technologies keep exploding, but as the giants of the industry continually offer us a greater number of choices, I for one felt like I was being left in the dust, faced with more questions than answers.

What is the difference between "ablative" and "non-ablative" lasers? What is the difference between "field" applications and "fractional" ones? Which treatments are more effective? Which ones cause more down time? Which ones ultimately will give us better results?
To get answers to these questions and more, I turned to Dr. Lawrence Bass, one of the most highly respected experts in the field of lasers. He has been so generous with his time in helping to educate me, that I now have so much to share with you. As a result, for the first time since beginning this newsletter, I have written an article in two parts, and to do justice to this topic, will post them sequntially. Part 1 gives you the background information to move forward.
