I like this analogy, Dr. Lam. An Allergan product specialist once said the (unofficial) data is that within 5 years with consistent treatment you’re looking at going from 3-4 injections/year down to one. Would be interesting to know if that’s what you’ve found too. I’ve been doing this for too short a time span to have any significant data, but that’s what i tell my clients.

“It’s your job to make sure that your wrinkles don’t come back!”

oh man, I know exactly what you mean. I think 14-21 days is about right. A friend of mine said you never ‘break’ a habit but you replace it. From my own life I would say that is true. You will simply replace it with something else, just as you did here with regular coke. It’s interesting how the perception changes over time!

Yes, I agree with the screen issue. But I would rather go blind with the glare than give up that design! The hospitality kit is nearing completion btw. Very soon there.

Yes the new unibody Macbook is gorgeous. I can’t imagine how Apple could improve the aesthetics any further. It’s really a work of art. I watched the PR video on Apple’s web site, and it’s amazing that such an elaborate chassis can be carved out of a solid block of aluminum. My only gripe is that the new Macbook is available only with a glossy display; I’ve always favored the matte display because of the reduced glare.

I am in my mid-40’s, and first noticed about eight years the crease between my eyebrows. Being rather more naive at that time, I didn’t think much about it, though I certainly noticed it didn’t go away. Several years later, in 2007, I decided to try botox and another injectable facial product. I liked the results but wasn’t especially pleased with the process so I decided to see another provider. That time I only tried botox and I felt especially put off by this second this second provider who told me that I couldn’t expect better results in my brow lines. I didn’t really buy that explanation, but figured what could I do. About another year passed.
In February of this year, 2008, I called Dr. Lam. As it turned out someone had cancelled their appointment that day so I was able to see the doctor within literally about an hour. We talked about fat augmentation and other means of facial rejuvenation and then I tried his botox procedure. What a radical difference! I especially noticed his attention to the detail of using multiple smaller injections into more sites in the same number of areas that I previously had treated. The attention to detail, technique and process certainly did and does make a difference.
Results that I thought were unachievable, especially in my upper brows, on the left and right side of my face, were extremely smooth. I was pleasantly shocked and quite amused, especially after having giving up on the possiblity of results this good. I am still considering the possibility of fat augmentation of the face at some point in the future since my facial and body type is on the thin side, but I now consider it part of my physical and health regiment to keep working with Dr. Lam and botox. It has certainly worked well for me.

This blog is so right onâ€¦.Actually a much known pastor called Ed Young at the fellowship church in Grapevine just did a series about self-pity, and it was amazing.
