Newport Beach, California (PRWEB) January 26, 2012

January is traditionally the time for new year’s resolutions, and Dr. Monica Bonakdar of the Beauty, Laser & Wellness Center wants to help men and women reach their goals that involve enhancing the appearance of their skin. She offers tips on Newport Beach med spa and skin rejuvenation treatments.

“Because of the beautiful weather that we have in Southern California, correcting sun damage is No. 1 on many of my patients’ wish lists,? Dr. Bonakdar says. ?They’ve spent too much time without sunblock and hats, and now they’re paying the price. They have that leathery skin that makes them appear much older than they are.

?When they ask me about treatment options for skin care in Newport Beach, I often suggest laser therapy. Laser treatments can resurface the skin to remove sun spots and replace that leathery look with evenly toned and textured skin.”

Dr. Bonakdar says the benefits of these treatments can be maintained by following her No. 1 tip for beautiful skin of any age: “Minimize direct exposure to the sun. Always using sunscreen and wearing a hat is the best way to protect your skin’s appearance, and its health.”

Another common new year?s resolution is: Do something about those wrinkles and facial lines.

“I have people come in who have spent so much money on over-the-counter lotions, potions and creams that claim to remove wrinkles,” Dr. Bonakdar says. “In general, those drugstore remedies don’t live up to their marketing promises.?

She says the best solutions are usually professional skin rejuvenation treatments such as injectable fillers and BOTOX

Diet Doc HCG Diet and Weight Loss conducted a survey of the larger HCG doctor clinics across the USA and found that the Diet Doc HCG Diet & Weight Loss is lower in price, yet offers more services and products in an all-inclusive program that is capable of shaving 1 pound of weight loss per day.

Many doctors are getting into the diet business by offering the original 1950′s Dr. Simeons HCG diet which promises dieters they will lose 1 pound per day if they consume 500 calories per day while taking injections of human chorionic gonadotropin(hcg), a human hormone made by chorionic cells in the fetal part of the placenta during pregnancy reports Julie Wright, president of HCG Weight Loss.

Diet Doc is the only modern-day version of the original 50 year old Dr. Simeons HCG Diet protocol that all other doctors are using. The reason doctors are using a 50 year old HCG diet, verses modernizing as Diet Doc did a few years ago, is true weight loss doctors require additional training in weight loss. The doctor must understand how each person’s medical condition, daily food intake, age, lifestyle, gender and preferences all play into weight loss. Many doctors simply do not have time for this additional training, nor do they have time to manage each person’s weight loss the way it needs to be done to get the weight off people, fast and safe. This is where Diet Doc leads the weight loss pack as we train doctors across the USA on our HCG diet as it’s the only HCG diet which is Dr. Oz approved. Diet Doc does not support a 500 calorie per day diet as all other doctors are offering. We have seen people lose hair, muscle (which leads to saggy skin), as well as experience extreme hunger and fatigue reports Wright.

Diet Doc offers the modern day version of a 50 year old HCG diet and developed 4 other diet programs rolled into one that then personalizes the diet for every person to achieve an average of 1 pound of weight loss per day. Unsure which diet works best, with various fad diets, such as the Cave Man Diet, Gerson Diet, Diet of Worms, Kourtney Kardashian Diet, Fat Joe Diet, Jonah Hill Diet, Reboot Diet, Esselstyn Diet, JWOWW Weight Loss Diet, Carrie Fisher Diet, the list goes on and on… None of these diets listed are doctor supervised and none listed have medical research to support it.

The problem with offering 500 calories per day is this is literal starvation. We frequently have people coming to us on the 500 calories with hair loss, extreme fatigue and hunger reports Wright. Diet Doc does not support a 500 calorie per day diet, but modernized a 1950 HCG diet into one that is safe, and that rolls 4 medically, supervised weight loss programs into one overall program that is then further personalized for each person taking into consideration their health history, age, gender, lifestyle and preferences reports Dr. Rao, medical director of Diet Doc.

Diet Doc offers one month of HCG medication, one month of weight loss shakes, one month of weight loss cooking/salad dressing oil that is clinically proven to help dieters start burning fat within 30 minutes of consuming, along with the Diet Doc workbook outlining the modern-day version of the Diet Doc HCG diet and a cookbook, plus unlimited nurse, doctor and weight loss consultant support 6 days per week is only $ 240 reports Wright. Most insurance companies reimburse for the majority of our Diet Doc program reports Wright, but each dieter is encouraged to verify with their health insurance company reports Wright.

Diet Doc HCG Diet and Weight Loss is passionate about helping people reduce their weight to avoid certain diseases and health conditions associated with being overweight. Diet Doc wants to keep their comprehensive, medically, supervised weight loss program affordable to many people, not just a select few. We often hear people comment that our pricing model is half of what other doctors are charging reports Wright. This is because our mission is to help people lose weight, train them on what specific foods will cause a weight loss reaction in their body. This is how they keep the weight off long term reports Wright. If we can do our best with each person, then we have gained the trust of many. This is how we make up for charging much lower than others states Wright.

Diet Doc provides medically, supervised patient care to people across the USA.We provide a collaborative approach to dieting, which is labor intensive, but effective reports Wright. We work with a team of physicians who are passionate about reducing obesity which is often the cause for many diseases and illnesses reports Wright.

*These weight reduction treatments include oral hCG or an injection of hCG?a drug, which has not been approved by the food and drug administration as safe and effective in the treatment of obesity or weight control. There is no substantial evidence that hCG increases weight loss beyond that resulting from caloric restriction, that it causes a more attractive or “normal” distribution of fat, or that it decreases the hunger and discomfort associated with calorie-restrictive diets. Results may vary and cannot be guaranteed. Medical supervision and compliance with our program is required.

Avene is a product line created for individuals with sensitive skin who may have recently had a skin condition become reactive. It seems recently there have been more cases of skin issues than ever before, often leaving those affected being unable to treat themselves or use most products as they react to the products they attempt to use. Avene was created for individuals who are unable to use other products, focusing specifically on their needs in order for them to be able to care for their skin without having to sacrifice the products which could help them.

Avene skin care products can help an individual with sensitive skin by offering a wide range of available products which target multiple needs. For instance, anti-aging from Avene can help an individual remove signs of aging without the harmful chemicals which are so widely used today. Sunscreens are also important as they help protect skin from the harmful effects of the sun, which can advance signs of aging and create brown sun spots on the skin. These spots even have the ability to become much worse as you age but they can be treated or you can simply be prepared and make sure that these spots are something that you will not get or have to deal with as a part of your life and your skin.

Avene also has a great cosmetic line focusing on different needs including cleansers, make-up concealers, moisturizers, and make-up. Each of these products is aimed at sensitive skin and the needs of the body by meeting what each person needs without adding harmful chemicals. Avene cosmetics are especially important not only due to the amount of allergies and reactions which are transpiring, but also because of helping the way that you feel about yourself and your skin. Emotions are important for your health and when you skin is healthy and taken care of it can help you too become healthier and have an easier time taking care of yourself and feeling great about the way that you look at all times.

When a person feels self conscious about their skin they may also feel self conscious while around other people. This can cause a great deal of embarrassment and can make a person feel uncomfortable having company, or even worse, have them decide that they would rather give up a part of their social life. Nothing should get to stand in your way and Avene tries to make sure that nothing can not even sensitive skin. This means that when you go shopping for you skin care products, rather then roaming down the isles trying to find something you skin might be able to handle or trying product after product that you have a reaction to you can simply look for Avene. Feel the comfort of Avene and feel comfortable knowing that it will work and that you will not have to miss any social engagement due to the way that you feel about your skin or how it looks at the time.
