MOTHER’S DAY GIFTS FOR GREAT SKIN 

If you prefer to treat your Mom to a gift that gives her 6 times better cleansing, minimizes the appearance of her pores, reduces oily areas, and leaves her skin feeling and looking smoother, then give her the gift of the Clarisonic Aria Skin Cleansing System (winner of the Allure Best of Beauty Award 2012). The Aria cleansing brush has 3 speeds, and adjustable timer for 1 or 2 minute cleansing time, comes with a sensitive brush head, USB-enabled charger and wall adapter.

Or give Mom the Clarisonic Opal Infuser to gently, yet effectively, infuse the outer layers of the epidermis with anti-aging serum. Mom’s skin will be hydrated, less puffy, and noticeably firmer with improved skin texture. Clinical studies have shown that daily use of the Opal Infuser can result in reduced appearance and depth of fine lines and wrinkles after 4 weeks, younger-looking and healthier-looking eye area after 8 weeks, and improved firmness and tightness immediately after use.

Evolutions will help you give Mom the gift of great skincare with the following promotions:

• Purchase the Clarisonic Aria for 20% off 
• Purchase the Clarisonic Opal Infuser for 20% off and receive a Gift with Purchase - a Lavendar Silk Eye Pillow (while supplies last)
• Purchase any Clarisonic cleansing brush system and receive a Gift with Purchase - a travel tote for your Clarisonic and a replacement Brush Head (while supplies last)

We  look forward to taking care of those who take care of so many others!

Evolutions Medical and Day Spa Santa Barbara is now located at 350 Chapala Street, #103, on the corner of Chapala and Gutierrez Streets. Plenty of parking is available in front of the spa and in the city lot on State Street and Gutierrez Streets.

Sublative Rejuvenation + DNA Repair is clinically proven for ALL skin types and can effectively treat and improve:

• Fine lines and wrinkles (mild to moderate)
• Textural irregularities (such as acne scarring)
• Sun damage and age spots
• General tone, texture, and color of skin
• Skin laxity (face and chest)

How does Sublative Rejuvenation work?
Sublative Rejuvenation uses Radio Frequency (RF) energy that is applied to the skin to induce a skin “injury” in tiny matrix spots. The skin “injury” is bigger under the surface (like an inverted cone) than on the surface. This helps the skin heal faster. As the skin heals, levels of collagen will be increased and new healthy skin cells are produced.

How does DNA Repair enhance the treatment?
 Adding the DNA serum immediately after the skin resurfacing treatment supercharges the rejuvenation procedure because the CryoStem Therapy serum is packed with collagen, hyaluronic acid, elastin, DNA, RNA(I), fibroblasts, lipids, antioxidants, vitamins and embryonic bovine stem cells. These building blocks of the skin maximizes skin renewal. The DNA CryoStem Therapy consists of 100% natural, chemical and preservative free formulations.

Is there downtime with this skin resurfacing treatment?
There is no downtime with Sublative Rejuvenation + DNA Repair. Clients may develop tiny scabs (smaller than a pin prick) from the matrix spots that are barely visible and can be covered with makeup. These usually slough off quickly.

Does the treatment hurt?
30 minutes prior to the treatment we apply a physician-strength topical numbing treatment. With the topical numbing, clients report little to no pain.

How many treatments are recommended and when can I see results?
The total number of treatments depends upon your skin’s condition. Your Evolutions clinician can help determine what is right for you at your complimentary consultation. Typically, clients have 4 treatments, 4 to 6 weeks apart.

Results are noticeable within 1 to 2 weeks after the first treatment and are cumulative, therefore we encourage clients to stay on schedule with their treatments.

How much does Sublative Rejuvenation + DNA Repair cost?
 Price can vary according to the number of total treatments and the areas treated. For the month of January, we are offering an Introductory Special of 25% off Sublative Rejuvenation + DNA Repair Treatment and Packages. The promotion is good until January 31, 2013 so call today to book your treatment or consultation at Evolutions Medical Spa in Santa Barbara - 805-687-0212.

Why use the Clarisonic skin cleansing brush? This is the one product that is beneficial for every skin type and skin condition. Although there are many electronic rotating brush products on the market, none of them beat the Clarisonic brush’s patented sonic frequency which consists of 300 movements per second to gently, and thoroughly, cleanse your skin. The inside bristles gently oscillate ten degrees in either direction to move with your skin’s elasticity. Other electronic brushes use a rotary movement that tugs at the skin and cause damage.

Due to the popularity of the Clarisonic product, they have recently made additions to their product line to accommodate different lifestyles and budgets. We carry the following Clarisonic skin products at Evolutions Medical Spa in Santa Barbara:

Clarisonic Pro

CLARISONIC PRO FOR FACE & BODY: this is for those who can’t get enough of the Clarisonic! It features 3-speeds to customize cleansing for different parts of the body and comes with 2 brushes: a sensitive brush (for the face) and a body brush. It includes an extension handle to help you comfortably cleanse your back, legs, knees, and feet. A universal charging cradle is included. $225

CLARISONIC ARIA: this is also a 3-speed brush that comes in a sleek high gloss finish (available in white or black) and comes with 2 brushes: a sensitive brush and a deep pore cleansing brush plus a drying stand (which is not a charger). A universal charger is also included. $199

Clarisonic Mia

CLARISONIC MIA: for those who are on-the-go, this brush is perfect! The Mia is a single speed brush that is great for travel and comes in a variety of fun colors (so you can easily find it in your gym bag or luggage!). $119

CLARISONIC OPAL SONIC INFUSION SYSTEM: introducing the newest product from Clarisonic that is designed to apply anti-aging serum better than manual application. The proven technology builds skin’s resilience to prevent future damage around the eyes, lip, brow, and forehead area along with providing instant hydration for smooth and brighter skin. $185

For those who have a Clarisonic, we also have:

Clarisonic Replacement Brush Heads: replacing your brush heads every 3 months is recommended  to maintain the highest level of cleansing. There are a variety of brush heads to accommodate a range of skin types and some Evolutions clients find that they may use a different brush head depending on how their skin is behaving during a specific time of year. $25 each

Clarisonic Body Extension Handle: use this handle to extend your Clarisonic cleansing to the rest of your body. Compatible with the Clarisonic PLUS and PRO brushes only. $25

Keep your family member or friend’s holiday glow alive throughout the year by giving them the gift of a Clarisonic Cleansing System!

RADIESSE used to fill the nasolabial lines.

There are dermal fillers made with hyaluronic acid molecules that attract water to the area filled which results in a restoration of facial volume. These fillers are Perlane, Restylane, and Juvederm and they commonly last six months or more (depending on the person). Our clients who have used these fillers before have been very satisfied with their results.  There is another filler, RADIESSE, that we wanted to highlight because it has an added benefit that hyaluronic acid fillers do not have – Radiesse can stimulate the production of your own collagen (and has been clinically proven to do so)!

RADIESSE is an FDA-approved injectable filler that is composed of calcium-based microspheres. It acts as a scaffolding under the skin to provide instantaneous lift and fullness while stimulating your body’s own collagen production so that your skin looks better over time. In addition to the collagen production, Radiesse has been clinically proven to last a year or more in clients. Radiesse can be a very affordable wrinkle correction option because the time between touch-ups is longer and you may need less product on subsequent treatments. For instance, if you need 2 syringes of Radiesse at the initial treatment for full correction, you may need only 1 syringe on a follow-up treatment, which could take place one or one and half years later.

A Radiesse treatment is relatively short and comfortable. Radiesse is FDA approved to be mixed with an anesthetic (lidocaine) to significantly improve your comfort level during the procedure. There is no downtime after a Radiesse treatment although exercising after the treatment is not recommended (normal exercise can be resumed the next day). Swelling or bruising may occur and can be treated with an ice pack. Some people do not experience any swelling or bruising.

Popular treatment areas are shown below but Radiesse can be used in many other places, as determined by you and your clinician:

A great time to try Radiesse is during our Injectable Week where there will be savings and chances to win great raffle prizes during the entire week.

Injectable Week starts on Monday, November 26th and ends on Saturday, December 1st. Appointments book fast during this popular week so call today to get a spot – 805-687-0212!

Santa Barbara cosmetic surgeon Dr. Terry Perkins started Evolutions Medical Spa for clients who wanted medically-advanced, results-driven aesthetic treatments in a “day spa” environment instead of a physician’s office. A sampling of our skin care services include facials, anti-wrinkle treatments such as Dysport, Botox, and dermal fillers, the treatment of sun damage and other skin concerns through laser facials and Foto Facials, laser hair removal services, skin tightening treatments, chemical peels, stretch mark reduction, and, more recently, laser tattoo removal and laser nail fungus treatments. View a complete list of our aesthetic and medical services here. 

We opened our business almost seven years ago and have continuously grown over the years – adding more clinicians, nurses, and recently a Physician’s Assistant, all of whom have been extensively trained by Dr. Perkins. We have also added more innovative and effective treatments for a more robust menu. In so doing, we have outgrown our current location and are excited to be moving to a much larger building. We will be closed for the move from Wednesday, October 24th, to Tuesday, October 30th. Our new location will be open for business on Wednesday, October 31st, at 350 Chapala Street, Suite 103 (on the corner of Gutierrez and Chapala), in downtown Santa Barbara.

Thank you for your years of loyalty and support and we invite you to come see us at our new location soon!
