5/14/2008

The latest in FDA-approved anti-aging products are among the many features of the Christenbury Eye Center and its' revolutionary Medi-Spa, that creates an entire new patient experience.

May 9, 2008 (FPRC) -- Charlotte , NC . – The Southeast's leading vision care and LASIK surgery center, Christenbury Eye Center introduces a new Medi-Spa designed for men and women who want to look younger and healthier through serious skin care, while gaining more confidence in their appearance.

From the latest FDA-approved anti-aging solutions and cellulite reduction therapies to medical skin care and Botox, the new Christenbury Medi-Spa will offer a full range of services for people of all ages, skin types and needs.

Medical Director Jonathan Christenbury, M.D., has been a leading Carolina eye surgeon for the past 20 years. He is a Duke University School of Medicine-trained physician and fellow of the American College of Surgeons and American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Dr. Christenbury is also a pioneer in introducing new services to benefit his patients. Now he is taking his clinical expertise and interest in technology to the next level with a Medi-Spa.

“The art and science of aesthetic medicine is an exciting field that has had amazing advances over the last decade,” says Dr. Christenbury. “Our satisfaction comes in knowing that the treatments we’ve selected for our patients will give them excellent results and make a difference without exposing them to any unnecessary risk, complications or discomfort since most of the treatments are nonsurgical.”

In reviewing the many options to improve the body and skin, one of the techniques that Dr. Christenbury chose was the revolutionary Elos ™ technology. This new therapy uses harmless radio frequency waves combined with infrared light energy to deliver gentle, noninvasive treatments. The face can also be treated using Elos technology. ReFirme ™ Skin Tightening can firm sagging skin on the face and neck due to aging and sun damage. The Matrix ™ IR Fractional eliminates wrinkles, fine lines and stimulates collagen. Fotofacial RF for Color Correction treats skin imperfections such as red and brown age spots, uneven skin tone, spider veins and broken capillaries.

"All of the treatments offered at Christenbury Medi-Spa can be performed at the same time in 45 minutes or less. Most patients receive several treatments 3 weeks apart for optimal results," according to Dr. Christenbury.

VelaShape ™ uses elos technology to shrink and reduce fat cells resistant to exercise and weight loss. This is a therapy for both body contouring and “circumferential reduction.” In clinical trials, patients reported that they were able to lose inches in their waist line and achieve a significant difference in the size and circumference of their thighs and stomach after VelaShape treatments.

VelaSmooth ™ works in a similar way to target cellulite, which gives skin that unattractive, dimpled appearance and is so difficult to eliminate. With elos technology VelaSmooth is able to dramatically reduce or eliminate cellulite, while smoothing and firming the skin. This is a non-surgical, non-liposuction method that delivers results without complications or risk. With VelaSmooth, the top three treatment areas women focus on are the hips, inner and outer thighs, and the bra line. For men, it is the chest fat, abdomen and love handles. Most patients have one treatment a week for one month, but can repeat treatments if more results are wanted. Patients say a VeloShape treatment is painless and feels like a hot rock massage.
