For years, Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center has been known for turning the clock back and helping Bakersfield look and feel younger.

We see commercials all the time for products to help get full, thick eyelashes. Between different types of mascaras and extensions, it can be overwhelming trying to keep up with all the maintenance required to get your lashes to their full potential. A wonderfully easy and time-effective alternative to extensions and specialty mascara is Latisse™.

Latisse™ is a product that works with your body’s natural eyelash growth cycle to help you grow longer, thicker, and darker lashes. Latisse™ is made by the same company that makes Botox™, so you can trust it to be top-notch quality. Latisse™ works by keeping your eyelashes in the active growth phase, or the anagen phase, of the follicle growth process for a longer period of time. The result is beautiful, thick, long lashes that remain for longer periods of time.

There are various causes of spider veins, those blue or purple veins that appear often on the legs as we get older. Many times, they are the result of pregnancy, but they can also be caused by careers that require a lot of time on your feet. Even genetics can lead to spider veins. Spider veins can definitely be treated with laser treatments. Whether you are just starting to notice spider veins showing up or they are in an advanced stage, it’s never too late for laser vein treatments to be effective.

The treatment is a relatively quick procedure. After a consult to address concerns and expectations, a laser will be applied for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, targeting individual veins. The laser bypasses the skin and causes a controlled burn of the blood vessel, which is no more painful than the snap of a rubber band. It will take 2 to 4 weeks for the full results to show, though you may see some veins disappear before you even leave the office. More extensive spider veins may require multiple treatments.
