February 19, 2004--Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Michael Law MD Performs a non-surgical "Extreme Makeover" for ABC News. Patient experiences no down-time or pain. After just an hour at Blue Water Spa, a Plastic Surgery Medical Spa, and an investment of a few hundred dollars, Sandy's appearance was transformed.

Sandy was a sun lover with extensive sun damage. She thought she needed a face-lift, but plastic surgeon Michael Law had other ideas.

"Sandy has lovely, youthful facial structure, with high cheekbones and a smooth jawline. Her aesthetic treatment must focus on improving the texture and vitality of the overlying skin. This can now be accomplished through treatments that do not have the 'down-time' associated with surgery and invasive, deep laser or chemical peels."

Her same-day office treatments included medical microdermabrasion followed by an anti-oxidant facial and a light lactic acid peel, an LED (light emitting diode) session to stimulate dermal metabolism and collagen production, V-beam laser removal of facial spider veins, BOTOX injection to soften lines aroung the eyes and forehead, and injection of a pure collagen product to plump up her lips and to fill in aging lines around her mouth.

"Not every client we see is at a point where they need to undergo a surgical procedure to achieve the facial rejuvenation that they desire. As a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon, it is rewarding to be able to offer our patients a complete spectrum of anti-aging treaments and procedures. Whatever the aesthetic concern or issue, we have answers that are appropriate for patients of every age and skin type."

Sandy was delighted with the results. She was surprised to find that an incredible transformation could also be painless. "I had been to other plastic surgeons in the area who suggested different surgical procedures for me. One doctor suggested I have a brow lift and also recommended Radiance injections in my lips. I learned that Radiance is made of bone material and is not even FDA approved for the lips! I am absolutely amazed by the change I have seen after just an hour in Dr. Law's office. There is no way that any other procedure, including surgery, could make me look better than I look now." Asked what she likes best about her extreme makeover Sandy exclaims, "My lips, but my skin looks incredible too. Oh wow, I'm so happy with everything, but I do think it's got to be the lips."

Dr. Law recommends that individuals seeking aesthetic enhancements look for a board-certified plastic surgeon, ideally one who practices in (or in association with) a plastic surgery medical spa.

Dr. Michael Law is a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon. He owns and operates Blue Water Spa, a Plastic Surgery Medical Spa in Raleigh, North Carolina with his wife, Kile Law. Dr. Law specializes in natural-appearing plastic surgery of the face and body.
