How Do Our Attitudes About Beauty Change As We Age?

What people find beautiful about themselves may be different than what they find appealing in another person. That’s just one finding from a recent consumer survey conducted on the Beauty For Life website (a joint venture of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.) Visitors were asked “What aspect of physical beauty do you find most appealing in another person?” In their 20s, 30s, and 40s, respondents look for a fit, well proportioned body; youthful skin ranked at the top for respondents in the 50s and 60s. When considering “Which part of your […]

the truth behind hydration

With so many beverage choices to choose from today, it is hard to determine whether or not you are getting enough fluids to satisfy your body.  It is especially important to stay hydrated during the heat of the summer which we are experiencing in full force right now.  Not only that, but getting your daily allotment of fluids can help you feel and even look better.  Below are some truths behind the “rules” of hydration: You don’t really need eight glasses of water each day.  It is actually recommended that women have about 11 1/2 cups and men have 15 1/2 […]

Road Trip Anyone? Tips for Eating Healthy when your Choices are few and far between.

Summer fun most always includes a road trip, but along with it comes food you’d never think about eating at home.  Chips, candy, slushies, and a McDonald’s at every mile marker are what you are faced with. After, you’ve spent the entire spring getting ready for shorts and that new bathing suit had to have.  However, with a little smart packing and a good plan you can eat healthy no matter what your limited choices maybe.

  Bathing suit season is in full bloom and one thing we all would like is a flatter belly.  Many of us diet and work out relentlessly and still cannot achieve a sculpted, flat belly.  This can be very frustrating.  Luckily I’ve got a few items to try out for those of you who suffer from this issue.  One option for some may be to have Dr. Conkright perform an Abdominoplasty.  A tummy tuck is designed to give you a toner, flatter abdomen.  The procedure removes excess abdominal skin and may also reduce fat and tighten the muscles of your abdominal […]
