Fish Oil Supplements – Nordic Natural ProOmega

In “The Beautiful Skin Diet” book, written by Dr. Richard Asarch, chapter 4 details the importance of nutrition and what it contributes in the health and appearance of our skin. Of major importance are vitamins A, C and E, and the ratio of Omega-3 fatty acids to Omega-6 fatty acids. Dr. Asarch recommends taking one to two grams per day of these concentrated sources of essential fatty acids. It is best to find one that is cholesterol free as it is purer than regular fish oil products. Be aware that omega-3 fatty acids and flaxseed can increase bleeding tendencies. If you are taking any blood thinning medication such as aspirin, you need to consult your physician before starting fish oil.

The Asarch Center dermaSpa carries a variety of supplements available for purchase. One of our offerings is Nordic Naturals ProOmega fish oil capsules. This product surpasses all national and international pharmaceutical standards for freshness and purity and is available for $26.95.

Want to Get SLIM? Selective Laser Induced Melting - Lose Fat, the laser-assisted way!

Unlike the other laser or liposuction treatments, the SLIM procedure uses advanced technology to deliver dual wavelengths of laser light, specifically designed to easily melt fat in large areas - with less downtime, little to no bruising, and remarkable results.

Unlike traditional liposuction, SlimLipo is an effective device for melting fat and not simply tearing through tissue structure. The result is less body trauma and significant fat removal and dermal heating. The heating of dermal tissue has been shown to have skin tightening results.

What is the SlimLipo laser? How can the SLIM Procedure help me?

The SlimLipo laser is revolutionary because it utilizes an ideal "fat melting" laser wavelength. Via a few tiny incisions, this patented laser gently melts fat for removal from your body. With SlimLipo's superior technology, you'll experience little downtime - get ready to show off your new slimmer look!

What results can I expect?

Dramatic, slimmer results!

Which parts of my body can be treated?

Areas of unwanted fat - your tummy, waist, hips, thighs, knees, buttocks, arms, and under your chin can be treated with SlimLipo.

Is this just for women?

No - the SLIM procedure is for both women and men who have areas of unwanted fat.

How fast is the SLIM procedure?

The SLIM Procedure is fast - often under an hour for a given area. There is also a pre-procedure preparation where our physician will perform an evaluation and go over any questions.

How many treatments will I need?

Typically, one treatment is enough for a given area.

What does the treatment feel like?

You may be pleasantly surprised how little discomfort the typical patient feels. Our state-of-the-art system has been carefully designed to ease unnecessary trauma to the body.

Is this different from traditional liposuction?

Yes, very different. Traditional liposuction leaves larger scars, causes more bleeding and more post-treatment pain, and requires longer healing times than the SLIM procedure. Also, traditional liposuction physically breaks up and suctions out intact fat cells, while the SLIM procedure efficiently melts and liquefies fat, which is then gently removed from your body. Answered more simply: SlimLipo is easier on your body.

How long is the SLIM Procedure recovery time, and what should I expect?

Typically, the SLIM Procedure recovery time is shorter than traditional liposuction. Many patients can go to work the very next day. You may see slight bruising at the small incision sites, which may take several weeks to completely resolve. Compression garments are required for a short period of time.

Should I Worry About Changes in my Nails?

Originally published by Richard G. Asarch, M.D. in SkinNews Volume XVI, Issue 1, Spring 2009.

Although we prefer the opposite, it is not uncommon to have nails that are less than perfect. Some nail abnormalities can be associated with more serious internal diseases but the following changes should not cause alarm.

The nail plate is made up of several layers of keratin, a protein. These layers are sealed together to form a unified, strong nail. The nail plate is generated by the nail matrix located under the cuticle. The distal portion (closest towards the direction of the finger tip) of the matrix produces the deeper layers of the nail plate, while the proximal portion products the more superficial layers of the nail plate.

With frequent exposure to water or exposure to cold, dry air, the layers can begin to separate from one another. The result is that your nails are likely to peel. Applying and rubbing moisturizers directly on your nails after anytime they become wet will help keep the layers supple and minimize the problem.

"Brittle nail syndrome" is quite common among women. Brittle nails don't seem to be able to hold moisture so that the layers of the nail plate tend to dry out and crack. This condition has been associated with thyroid disorders so if other symptoms are present, it would be best to check with your physician.

Tiny white splotches or dots on otherwise healthy nails are not usually a sign of anything serious. Most often, these spots are the result of some type of minor injury to the nail matrix. Since nails grow quite slowly, by the time the spot appears, the injury may have occurred weeks before so you might not remember what you did to cause the spot to appear.

Vertical ridges are totally normal but tend to become more prominent as we get older. Indentations in the nail plate can be the result of a great deal of stress or a severe illness. The nail may also stop growing for a short time and when it starts growing again an indentation occurs at that spot in the nail.
