secrets: but reveled not only revealed
So you wonder how that girl at the office never ages year after year? It just doesn’t seem fair –actually, it’s pretty annoying...! Undoubtedly, she’s not going to tell you her secrets, so WE will. Although, genetics does play a big role in how we age, the rest of the fight can be conquered with a little help from the experts. That’s why we want to let you in on our best secrets –together we will win the battle.
We think you should start with your eyes, they reveal more than you think. They are usually the first part of the face to show their age and the first part you and others notice. Crow’s feet signal the aging process has begun and can instantly add years to your appearance, making us look older than we really are. Our favorite remedy is Botox –it’s our number one pick by far because it diminishes the muscle action that leads to further aging and prevents the wrinkles from becoming a permanent fixture. If you don’t quite think you are ready for Botox, we offer great skin care options that can reduce the wrinkles. We spend so much time trying to get rid of excess fat on our bodies; but one of the biggest secrets to a youthful face is facial fat. As we age, we lose facial fat and volume, many people are under the impression they are doomed to a face-lift, but the truth is in most cases years can be reversed just by adding fullness back into the face –it can have truly amazing results without the risk and cost of surgery. Depending on age and extent of fat loss and furrows, we can suggest the best way to correct, whether it will be injectable fillers or fat grafting. Injectables,
including fat transfer, restore and replenish volume. Injectables are also great for the lip lines - also another big age give-away. Laser skin tightening is another great secret to tighter and firmer skin. This method does take patience on your part –it’s not instantaneous. Skin tightening lasers deliver thermal energy (heat) beneath the skin to safely injure the dermis prompting collagen stimulation and formation. Because your own collagen is stimulated which takes time, the results are not seen instantly and are subtly seen over a few months time. The final results can be very pleasing and look so natural because your own skin becomes younger, plumper and stronger giving a smooth and refined appearance.
Daily use of EFFECTIVE skin care products are essential to a youthful appearance. Exfoliating ingredients along with retin-A are vital to keep the skin refreshed and rejuvenated –in combination they eliminate dead skin cells to give way to new cells. This leaves your face glowing and vibrant and younger. A monthly facial, microdermabrasion treatment or chemical peel can really boost the results. All our secrets used in tandem would give the most optimal and remarkable results. We still have a few more secrets in the bag, and we are willing to share – so come in for a complimentary consultation! Don’t be jealous, be the one who they are jealous of!

Bladder Issues. Unexpected leaks are NO joke. Let’s talk about your
Have you ever had a good laugh with your girlfriends and experienced a little leak? Or bent over to lift something heavy and noticed that your underclothes were wet? Maybe you’ve felt a sudden urge to use the restroom but were unable to get there in time? If so, then you know first-hand the discomfort and embarrassment of living with bladder control problems.
Sadly, many women don’t realize that there is something they can do to restore their weakened or overactive bladder. They may make adjustments to their daily lives to accommodate their urinary incontinence symptoms –limiting the amount of fluids they drink, planning outings around the availability of restrooms, wearing dark clothing, and using adult pads and liners. If you’re self-conscious about your condi-
tion or you’re making sacrifices to accommodate your symptoms, it may be time to meet with Dr. Schilling. Dr. Schilling realizes bladder leakage is an issue that may be uncomfortable for you to discuss –but the reality is that 1 out of every 3 women share this same problem, it is far more common than you may realize. He can discuss the effective treatments that are helping women regain their comfort and confidence. So the embarrassment of discussion far outweighs the problem, especially when he can provide new hope for you. Just remember, you are not alone, there is a solution to your problem, and Dr. Schilling understands your concerns and can give you options.

In today’s world, it’s very common or “fashionable” to be interested in our health and image. Whatever the reason, we want to feel and look good, it gives us a sense of confidence and satisfaction. Most interest in body changes or cosmetic surgery surfaces from a desire to reclaim the body we once had “before”, meaning prior to weight-gain, child-birth, breast-feeding, and just plain aging. Some may have hereditary factors that they were born with and cannot change with diet or exercise. For all these reasons, we seek a way to regain or obtain a better image.

to be an excellent choice to reclaim a youthful face by filling in the hollows under the eyes and in the cheeks. Fat grafting can also be used to enhance and sculpt your derrière. So before you say good-bye forever to what you thought was unwanted fat - we may change your mind!
Dr. Schilling while practicing gynecology and obstetrics over the last 30 years, has listened to his loyal patients routinely inquire how to help them with scars, stretch marks, weight issues, sagging abdomens and breasts. So 5 years ago, he started offering help for his patients’ concerns.
Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is a perfect solution to a protruding abdomen (weak abdominal muscles) and excessive skin as a result of pregnancy or weight-loss. This condition does not respond well to diet or exercise because it happens as a result of your skin stretching beyond repair. During the surgery, the abdominal muscles can be tightened and excess skin is removed to improve the appearance of a tighter abdomen. However, a tummy tuck does not treat stretchmarks and texture changes to the remaining skin and it does leave you with a scar in the lower abdomen. Most patients feel the benefits far outweigh the downside.
Dr. Schilling, after properly training and with on-going training, added cosmetic surgery to his practice and can offer a spectrum of solutions for your concerns.
Liposuction or tummy tucks are not a substitute for weight-loss. Both are best for patients at or near a normal healthy weight, non-smoker and an appropriate age.
He offers weight-management programs, liposuction, fat-transfer/grafting, tummy tucks, and breast enhancement/augmentation. All cosmetic surgery he performs is in-office and performed under local tumescent anesthesia which heightens safety and reduces cost for you.
Dr. Schilling’s newest addition to cosmetic surgery is breast enhancement or augmentation. Many women desire this procedure after child-birth and breastfeeding, the breast becomes smaller and/or saggy, or some women may just want fuller breasts.
Liposuction, usually combined with Smartlipo™ (laser-assisted lipolysis) removes fat cells permanently, the laser technology liquefies fat and coagulates tissue resulting in skin tightening. This is an effective and safe option for patients who wish to improve localized fat deposits that refuse to improve with diet and exercise. If you do have the liposuction procedure, you may want to put the removed fat to good use. Your fat can be used in areas where you lose volume due to age, like your face. Facial fat grafting has been proven
There are many important issues, concerns and risks mental and physical that need to be discussed before you decide on breast implants. But millions of women around the world have had breast augmentation surgery and in most cases are thrilled with the results and enjoy their enhancement for years to come. If you think you are interested in a breast enhancement or any of the other cosmetic surgeries Dr. Schilling performs, please come in for a complimentary consultation to discuss all your options along with the risks.

Now, that is GREAT odds. A treatment option for heavy periods.
About 10 million women suffer from heavy menstrual bleeding. Many women begin to experience heavy and/ or irregular bleeding in their 30’s and 40’s, as they begin to get closer to menopause. Heavy periods are more than just a hassle - they take a physical, social, and emotional toll as well. NovaSure can do more than just stop the bleeding. Many women who’ve had the NovaSure procedure say they are now able to spend more time at work and daily activities, participating in more social and athletic outings now that they no longer suffer from heavy bleeding. They also report improved energy levels, better moods, and a boost in self-confidence. And many also had a significant reduction in painful periods and PMS symptoms like irritability. Heavy periods are not something you have to live with! Today, there are a number of effective treatment options available. Take this quiz to see if you may be a candidate: q q q q q q
