Sun Screen – Which One Do I Buy?
This time of year we are inundated with the need for wearing Sun Screen — the TV, Radio, and Print materials tell us the dangers of not protecting our skin from the sun. We know that repeated and ongoing exposure to the UV radiation from the sun and indoor tanning beds causes our skin to age earlier with wrinkles and to develop brown spots and discolorations from the sun. In extreme instances, repeated sun exposure can cause skin cancers and the deadliest form, Melanoma. Many of us grew up thinking the more sun tan we had, the more attractive we were. Unbelievably there are still a few people who hold onto this thought!
Every year there are more and more sun screen choices to buy and it gets pretty confusing. Who has the time to read all the labels to make the best choice?
We carry 4 sun screens by SKINCEUTICALS and we think they are great. There are 2 we especially like and our patients have found to be very effective. One is the
SPORT 45 which has an SPF of 45 but also it does not wash off with sweat and perspiration and it lasts for several hours. This is especially perfect for those of you who enjoy outdoor sports in the summer (golf, tennis, baseball, etc.) — either as a participant or an observer. This is also great for those of you who spend time at a lake or enjoy water sports as SPORT 45 lasts longer than most other sun screens. You don’t have to keep re-applying it every couple of hours.
Our second favorite sun screen is the SPF 50, SHEER PHYSICAL UV DEFENSE.
This sunscreen is very sheer and it is chemical free. Because it is translucent in color, it is a great choice to put under makeup at the beginning of the day. It is also great to share with that special man in your life who objects to wearing sun screen because he doesn’t like the feel of “creamy stuff” on his face. This is also effective for the entire body.
We are offering a special price on our sunscreen: 15% OFF! And if you don’t have time to come into the office to purchase one or more of these sun screens; we will mail the sunscreen to you and we will pay for the shipping. This offer is good through Labor Day, September 6, 2010.
ENJOY THE REMAINDER OF THE SUMMER!!

Out of all of the Midwest states, Kansas has some of the lowest rates for plastic surgery procedures, and the place to find the highest quality plastic surgeons is in Kansas City. Another excellent reason to choose Kansas City for your plastic surgery needs is the expertise of Dr. Michael Hynes, one of the most respected plastic surgeons in the region. Dr. Hynes has been in private practice as a cosmetic surgery specialist for over 25 years, and is a member of numerous plastic surgery societies, including the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American College of Surgeons, and is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Dr. Hynes is adamant about keeping his office on the cutting edge of cosmetic surgery, and is equally comfortable performing breast augmentations or Botox injections with full mommy makeovers and laser liposuction. Dr. Hynes performs all of his surgeries in the safety of a hospital and uses the amazing ON-Q pain relief system for his breast augmentation and tummy tuck patients. The pain pump is pre-programmed and the patient wears it home for 3 to 5 days of pain relief eliminating the need for narcotics for nearly all patients.
Plastic Surgeons around the country who wish to offer Sciton’s ProLipo PLUS (Laser Lipo) will soon have the opportunity to train with Dr. Michael Hynes in Kansas City.
Although cosmetic plastic surgery in general, and breast augmentation in particular has become much more widespread and accepted during the past decades, it is still a major surgical and financial step, and candidates for the surgery should carefully consider whether this procedure is right for them. If you are considering breast augmentation, here are some things you need to know before your first consultation.
