specialist, Elizabeth Palascak, has
performed more than 5,500 procedures
to date. CoolSculpting is currently the
most popular method on the market for
non-invasive fat reduction. The results
from fat freezing are changing the minds
of critics, one sculpted body at a time.
Many patients who want to avoid the
operating room and still reduce fat bulges
are turning to CoolSculpting for spot
reduction of unsightly fat. The procedure
requires no needles or anesthesia, with
little to no downtime. When you consider
that fat can be eliminated in as little as 35
minutes without undergoing a surgical
procedure, the results are unprecedented.
To date, after more than eight million
CoolSculpting treatments worldwide,
people everywhere are getting a better
view of themselves, thanks to the oneof
a-kind CoolSculpting procedure. The
procedure can treat the abdomen, love
handles, inner and outer thighs, upper
arms, back fat and double chins. From
freezing to results in 90-120 days, it’s

PDO Threads for Instant Lift & a Collagen Boost
PDO Threads are one the most effective ways to lift loose skin
without surgery, and to regain that natural, beautiful V-Shape of the
face. As we age, gravity takes a toll on our bodies, most notably in
the face. You may notice it around the eyebrows, areas around the
eyes, cheeks, jowls and neck. The result is a longer, more squareshaped
and older-looking face as we lose our youthful V-Shaped
face. FDA approved, PDO (polydioxanone) sutures are commonly
used to perform cardiac surgery. It’s the safest material that can be
used in the body. Your skin fully absorbs the PDO Threads within
four to six months without leaving any scar tissue. Commonly
called the “lunch time facelift” in Europe, the procedure takes
a short time, with results lasting 12 to 15 months. Our master
aesthetics specialist Corinn Singletary, PA-C, is a national trainer
for PDO threads, instructing physicians across the country on best
practices for this effective, non-surgical procedure.
I couldn’t be more proud of my exceptional staff and the
robust menu of services at PureLife Medi-Spa. As we look to the
future and what’s to come in the next seven years, I’m excited to
bring the latest aesthetic innovations to the Tampa Bay area. 9

As most people know, PureLife
specializes in non-surgical cosmetic
procedures that are scientifically proven
safe and effective with virtually no
downtime. As we age, even maintaining
a healthy diet and lifestyle won’t stop
the wrinkles, fine lines and weight gain.
PureLife treatments allow our patients
to enjoy a more youthful appearance without surgery, allowing
them to return to their normal lives without downtime. Even the
men are catching on – about 40% of our active patients are men
who want aesthetic treatments to keep them looking youthful.
One of our most popular treatments, Morpheus8, is a
fractional skin treatment that stimulates collagen production
of the underlying layers of the dermis. By targeting the deeper
layers of the skin, the building blocks will reorganize themselves
in a natural anti-aging process.
Morpheus8 can be used on any areas that can benefit from
sub-dermal renewal. The most commonly treated areas include
the lower face and neck. Areas of the face and body that exhibit
wrinkles, discoloration or acne scarring are suitable for treatment.
Depending on the patient’s treatment plan, one to three sessions
are recommended.
Fractionated RF skin tightening energy is a scientifically proven
method to reduce wrinkles and rebuild collagen and fat. It is
minimally invasive, using a matrix of micro pins to renew deeper
layers of the skin with almost no patient downtime. The benefit of
Morpheus8’s color-blind technology is that it can be used on all skin
types. The unique properties allow even darker tones to be treated.
Visible results can be seen within a few days, but typically after
three weeks the most noticeable results appear. Improvements
continue up to three months after treatment.
