LASER HAIR REMOVAL: IS IT REALLY WHAT IT IS CRACKED UP TO BE?
Okay, so let’s talk about it. Laser hair removal.  Are you tired of shaving, tweezing, and waxing to get rid of wanted hair on your body? If this daily maintenance is not worth the aggravation, then laser hair removal might be perfect for you!  So, what is it? Laser hair removal is a convenient, noninvasive way to permanently reduce or remove unwanted facial or body hair. How awesome is that?!
One of the most commonly asked questions for laser hair removal is “Does it really work?” The answer to this question is yes!!!! Laser hair removal beams highly concentrated light into your hair follicles.  The pigment in the follicles absorbs the light, destroying the hair.  The laser pulses for just a fraction of a second to destroy many follicles at one time! If you’ve never been in for laser hair removal, you will need a consultation (THESE ARE FREE!!).  Pricing for packages and questions will be discussed at this time. Most patients will experience permanent hair loss after an average of 4-6 sessions. This ensures that all active-growth hair follicles have been removed!
Another frequent question is “Does this hurt?” New to Touch MedSpa is the MOTUS AX laser. It is completely PAIN FREE.  Yes, you read that correctly. A laser that is painless!! It is fast and more effective for the widest range of skin types. In the past, best results were for clients with dark hair and fair skin. But, that’s so last season. With the MOTUS, we can treat people that have lighter and finer hair!
So, what are you waiting for?! No pain, all skin types, and it really works! What more could you ask for? Call us today at 843-249-5433 to schedule a consult and breakup with your razor!

HOW BOTOX WORKS FOR WRINKLE REDUCTION
There is a lot of talk about Botox, but not everyone has a clear understanding of how it is used and what it can accomplish. When you are fighting the aging process and working to have a youthful appearance, Botox can help you.
People often talk about all wrinkles as if they are all created equal and can receive the same exact treatments in order to help them go away. This is not accurate. Neuromodulators, such as Botox, help to lessen the muscle movement that is ultimately causing the wrinkles. A full life brings its share of surprises, smiles and frowns. All those experiences and facial expressions mean repeated muscle contractions, causing lines and wrinkles to appear. Botox works for wrinkle reduction because it relaxes these muscles, allowing the skin to relax as well.  Botox is perfect for reducing crow’s feet, frown lines, and other wrinkles that come as a result of facial movements. The treatment is temporary and in most cases, is needed every 3-4 months, depending on your metabolism.
Are you a good candidate?
Botox is popular because it works. People like this treatment because they have little to no side effects, do not require any downtime, and is quick and easy to have done.
While this product works great on people who are a little bit older and already have some deep wrinkles etched into their faces, this product is also ideal for individuals who are just starting to see the signs of aging. Botox can actually be used to prevent wrinkles. So, individuals who are as young as 25-30 years old can visit us for treatments in order to prevent the formation of deep wrinkles.
Smooth your lines.  Keep the experiences that made them!

WHAT’S SO “COOL” ABOUT COOLSCULPTING?

WHAT’S SO “COOL” ABOUT COOLSCULPTING?
If you are in the market for CoolSculpting and trying to find out some options about stubborn fat let’s first take a moment to reflect.  If you are anything like me you can look back at a moment in time where calories didn’t matter quite so much, confidence may have been just slightly higher (especially if children have now taken over your body and life) and time was not an issue or energy for that matter.  Ok, guys you may not be able to relate to ALL of that but, I know you can to some of the above!
When I was younger and very self-motivated I could not quite understand why people needed help with weight or body image.  That was a time when my batteries stayed charged and I could eat 4,000 calories a day without even hesitating.  Now, I’ve moved to a caffeine obsessed and calorie counting lifestyle and I still can’t seem to get rid of my problem areas.  Oh, did I mention I work out 4-6 days a week.  Does this sound familiar?
So, WHY CoolSculpting? WHY body contouring?   If there is anything that I have learned in parenthood about self-care it’s that it’s okay, I’m worth it and confidence goes a very long way. It helps me feel better when I am with my husband, feeling good gives my extra motivation to STAY that way and the extra pep in my step is free!
There are lots of questions out there about why it’s “COOL” so let me elaborate here:
CoolSculpting FACTS:
1.     How does Coolsculpting work?
Coolsculpting is FDA approved technology that freezes up to 24% of your fat cells in the area being treated.  Ok, great! So, what does that mean?  When you go in for your consultation you will let the technician know where your problem area(s) are.  She will squeeze around a little bit.  Yes, this will temporarily hurt your feelings just a little.  But, all for good cause of course!  She will determine how to sculpt that area and how many “cycles” you need to get your desired result.  Now it’s time for treatment (yay)!  She will mark those areas being treated making sure the applicator goes in the best spot possible to give the best result possible. The applicator will use suction to pull the fat into the applicator and bring that area to a freezing temperature. That temperature kills the fat cells in that area (24% of them) and over a period of 12 weeks those fat cells leave through your lymphatic system.  Cool, right?!
2.     How long does it take?
It really just depends on the area being treated.  On average it takes 35 minutes (per cycle) but you can plan on being at your appointment for a full 45 minutes.  It includes before pictures and getting the applicator on correctly.  All are crucial to your optimal result.
3.     What kind of results can I get?
This is a big question and a very important one!  As we have been saying the technology is designed to remove 24% of fat cells.  So, based on size results can vary.  Some people may need to be treated twice in an area to get what they are looking for. In our office we see a lot of people start talking about 4 or 5 parts of the body.  Do we want to treat all parts of your body?  SURE!  Do we recommend starting that way?  Honestly, NO! Treat your top one or two areas properly with the recommended cycles. Then when you LOVE it, come back and do the rest.  Don’t overwhelm yourself or your wallet.  Don’t cut yourself short to try to afford it all. Remember, you still want to live a healthy lifestyle.  This is not your one way pass to eating and drinking everything under the sun. NOTHING is permanent when it comes to body contouring or weight management.  Take care of yourself and the results will last a very long time!
4.     Does it hurt?
I have treated my inner thighs and banana roll (the roll under your butt cheek).  I had no pain during the procedure. The first 7 minutes were uncomfortable as in a level 4 of discomfort out of scale of 10 but, no pain.   The only strange feeling I would say is when the applicator comes off and the tissue is cold.  Again, no pain, just an odd feeling.  Some people experience soreness afterward and swelling in the area treated.
5.     What areas can be treated?
Coolsculpting targets all problem areas!  Stomach, flanks, bra fat, fat under the chin, arms, outer thigh, inner thigh, banana roll, knee fat.  The saying goes…if you can squeeze it, we can freeze it!

Botox  Injection Information
If you want younger, smoother looking skin Botox might be perfect for you. Botox is a great way for both men and women to decrease fine lines. Have you ever thought about Botox treatments? Wondering what exactly it is? We have the answers for you below.
WHAT IS BOTOX?
Botox is the only FDA approved product that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and facial creases. Botox is a prescription medicine injection using a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. The medicine is injected into the muscles to temporarily reduce frown lines, crow’s feet, and other fine lines. Botox is used by both men and women to make skin look younger, healthier and rejuvenated.
HOW DOES BOTOX WORK?
The Botox injections stop signals from the nerves to the muscles, disabling the muscles to contract. Without the contraction of the muscles the skin and wrinkles are able to relax and soften. With injections over time the muscles become semi-trained to relax, resulting in longer time need between treatments.
WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?
Botox can be used in many areas on the face and neck. It can’t be used to treat wrinkles from sun damage or gravity. Here are the commonly treated areas: Crow’s feet or lines around the eyes Frown lines Forehead creases Crease in between eyebrows
WHAT IS THE TREATMENT LIKE?
Botox is injected with a small needle into the muscle area with little discomfort.  The same technique is used in each desired area. The Botox injections are fairly quick only lasting a few minutes. No anesthesia is required for the treatments. There is mild discomfort around the injection site and the area may be tender afterwards.
HOW LONG DOES THE BOTOX INJECTION LAST?
About three to ten days after the injections the effects will appear. The lines will start to progressively decrease. They do not disappear immediately after the injections. The effects should last anywhere from three to six months. Follow up treatments will be need as lines begin to appear again.
ARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS?
Some people may experience temporary bruising around the injection site. Serious side effects can occur. It is important to honestly discuss your medical history with our doctor before Botox treatments. Alert doctors of any nerve or muscle conditions, and medicines you take.  Allergic reactions can occur resulting in itching, rash, wheezing and dizziness. You should not take Botox treatments if you have had an allergic reaction to other types of injections.
Our clients have experienced great success with our Botox treatments! To find out if Botox is right for you schedule an appointment with us. We are happy to address any concerns you may have. We want to help you feel the best you possible!

Laser Hair Removal Treatments
Does laser hair removal really work? Yes!!!! There are many ways to temporarily remove hair, but for more permanent results, laser hair removal is the safest way to make unwanted body hair a thing of the past! How does it work? A concentrated beam of light is aimed at the hair. The light is absorbed by the pigment which damages the follicle enough to retard future growth. Lasers can remove hair from almost anywhere and it can take from months to almost a year depending on the area. An example would be hair on the face is treated at a 2 to 4-week time frame and the larger areas of the body can be 8 to 12 weeks in between. Most often you can purchase a package of 6 at a reduced price. However, I always explain that in some cases clients might need more treatments depending on the area, hormone changes and their hair growth. You would need a consultation (consultations are free!) to determine if you would be a candidate for this type of treatment. The best results are usually obtained on dark hair and fair skin; however, lasers have changed over the years and we are now able to treat clients that have lighter and finer hair.  
Another question that is asked is how painful is it? Today it is actually not painful at all as the technology has changed so much. It feels more like a pinch or a rubber band snapping the skin. I explain to clients that you will feel it more in areas where there are more follicles, and as time goes by you will feel less concentration of energy in those areas. It is important to make sure that you are freshly shaven and prepared for the treatment assuming that you have had your prior consult.
Something that can prevent you from treatment is UV exposure. Laser and sun do not mix so you will need to make a commitment while having these treatments that you will stay protected at all times. Being that the light that we use is attracted to pigment you would not want to increase the color of the skin as then you are creating a risk of burns or blisters.
I have personally had Laser Hair Removal and absolutely love the results. I would recommend to anyone that has struggled over the years with ingrown hairs, razor bumps or excessive hair. It is easier now more than ever to make a difference.  
Contact us today to set up a free consultation to see if you are a candidate for Laser Hair Removal.

Cracking Knuckles
Until working here at Touch MedSpa, I hadn’t ever even so much as cracked my knuckles. So when our chiropractor’s assistant Michelle, asked if I wanted to get an adjustment I instantly said NO THANK YOU! I know, I know, you’ve probably seen a chiropractor and you know that this is an entirely irrational fear. For any of you who haven’t had an adjustment, maybe you can relate to my unreasonable concern.
Now let’s jump ahead to a few months later when just about every single person I’d spoken to has sworn that seeing a chiropractor is a magical, life changing experience. I was still skeptical and incredibly nervous, but one day I got my courage up and put myself on Dr. Bell’s schedule for an adjustment. Now when I say I was nervous, I’m not talking the cute, giggly, jittery nervous. It was the full on clammy palms, and anxious thoughts, hoping I would simply get too busy and not be able to get back to his office.
Of course, the office was SILENT when I heard Michelle’s high heels strolling down the hallway, surely on her way to drag me to an exam room for my adjustment. I could run, or even hide in the little closet behind my desk! All I could think about was the best escape route to avoid this adjustment at all costs! In the time it took me to consider all escape options, Michelle was standing there in front of me saying “You ready!?” with a bright cheery smile. How could she be so excited about this torture I was about to endure!? (yes I’m aware that I can be a *little* dramatic when I’m nervous). There was no way around it. I had to gather my courage and face this fear of mine. I was surely doomed.
I followed Michelle back to Dr. Bell’s office and sat down in the first exam room. Dr. Bell started by telling me a little bit about what he does and I was instantly way less nervous. For anyone who’s met Dr. Bell, they’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. He has this calming way about him and even though I was still nervous, I knew I was in good hands. Once he explained how everything works, he had me lay down on the table began adjusting my spine. It was quick and absolutely painless!
The ONLY remotely unpleasant part of the adjustment was the sound but it really didn’t bother me. I was expecting it to be painful and I couldn’t have been more wrong there. (Yes everyone who told me I was being irrational was in fact right). The entire experience was actually relaxing, and turns out they weren’t kidding when they said that getting an adjustment is magical. It was like someone removed a really heavy backpack that I didn’t even know I was carrying and now I’m running back to his office for adjustments all the time!!!
I’m so thankful for all the coworkers and patients who urged me to be brave and see Dr. Bell! If you haven’t seen a chiropractor, or are nervous like I was, I strongly suggest making an appointment with him to see what you’ve been missing!
