You may already be familiar with
the handsomely dimpled Dr. Youssef from his appearances on
Access Hollywood and The New You if not the myriad magazines
that tout him as the man with the magic wand to reverse
aging. The board certified surgeon runs this charming,
inconspicuous medi-spa where traditional therapies meet
cutting edge treatments so that discerning clients can find
a one-stop shop for rejuvenation.
Upon arrival, we found the soft spoken Youssef accessible
and spending time interacting with clients like they were
old friends. The client loyalty here is obvious so that
favorite recipes are traded casually over discussions of
beauty regiments and techniques. Most medi-spas feel austere
and clinical but here the tone is convivial, credit for
which goes to the personable staff and Youssef's winsome
personality. His passion for what he offers is genuine and
unfettered by his years in the profession, and he lights up
when describing a product or groundbreaking treatment.
Amongst these, the Laser Lipo-Sculpture is surely the most
innovative. The first part of the treatment involves The
Miracle Gas. A medical grade gas is injected through small
needles under the surface of the skin to fade stretch marks,
diminish cellulite, tighten loose skin and brighten and firm
the eye contour. Less uncomfortable than electrolysis, laser
or waxing, the therapy shows astounding results and is
enhanced by a second component - the precision sculpting
Lipomassage. The treatment essentially breaks down fat
cells. It then conditions, reorganizes the fat clusters and
stretches connective tissue to smooth and sculpt dimpled
skin.
For a fast beauty fix you can also opt for the Oxygen
Therapy, a favorite with celebs like Madonna who has a
machine for each of her houses. An icy cold airbrushing wand
pumping out pure oxygen and potent serum is run over your
face so that the appearance of fine lines and blemishes are
reduced and a "face-lift" effect is achieved. While
recommended in packages of 5, even a single treatment will
show results before an important night out.
