All of us long to have a toned, shapely physique. The problem is, that not all of us can achieve this goal through diet and exercise alone. Sometimes, our genetic makeup makes it more or less impossible to get the sculpted hips, toned tummy, or shapely abs that we desire.
That’s where non-surgical body sculpting comes into place. Simply put, non-surgical body sculpting refers to the list of treatments available to help you slim and smooth your figure, without the need for surgical interventions like liposuction or a tummy tuck. Non-surgical body sculpting isn’t necessarily about losing weight, but rather about […]
One of the most difficult aspects of the aging process is looking in the mirror and realizing that you don’t look as young as you feel. It’s inevitable that, with the passage of time, your skin will lose some of its youthful firmness, smoothness, and complexion. The good news is that there are plenty of safe, effective, minimally invasive treatments to rejuvenate your skin and restore your confidence. Historically, traditional microneedling has been among the top options. Today, there’s also an even more advanced technique, known as Morpheus8 radiofrequency microneedling.

Though they represent a very small part of your body, the eyelids can be incredibly expressive, conveying much about your mood or your energy level. For example, if your eyelids appear saggy or droopy, it suggests that you’re behind on your sleep, or perhaps a bit fatigued.
It may also mean that you suffer from ptosis, a very common condition that results in chronically droopy eyelids. Millions of Americans suffer from ptosis, and historically the only way to address it has been with eyelid surgery. Now, there is a new approach, called Upneeq. Upneeq eye drops provide a non-surgical eyelid lift, […]

When dealing with any kind of recurring skin condition, it’s important to get routine skin care treatments. A single treatment may be insufficient; instead, consider setting up appointments for monthly facials in Charlotte NC , which can help you to be proactive in your struggle against acne and acne scarring.
The question is, what type of facial is […]

As our bodies age, the skin loses much of its natural elasticity, resulting in sagging, drooping, and deep wrinkles. These common signs of the aging process may be distressing, but thankfully there are a number of treatments available. Historically, the most effective way to minimize these signs of age has been with a surgical facelift. For patients who want to rejuvenate their facial appearance without the need for surgery, a good alternative may be the use of deep resurfacing laser therapy.
We are pleased to provide deep resurfacing laser treatments here at Carolina Age Management Institute, and specifically to offer a […]
