<p>Deciding to undergo a cosmetic procedure like Botox treatment or dermal fillers can be stressful if you are not sure who to trust or what to expect. Making sure you choose a licensed and trained injector is very important. Botox treatment and dermal filler injections are a fusion of art and science and the injector should be highly knowledgeable about the physiology and anatomy of the body.</p>
<p>At Seasons, we pride ourselves on having a knowledgable and certified staff and encourage educational courses to stay up to date on the latest procedures. Make sure you choose someone who is certified as well as qualified to administer Botox or dermal fillers. To find a certified Botox or Juvederm administrator in your area, you can visit <a title="www.botox.com" href="http://seasonswc.com/blog/page/www.botox.com" target="_blank">www.botox.com</a> or <a title="www.juvederm.com" href="http://www.juvederm.com" target="_blank">www.juvederm.com</a> and search under “find a doctor”.</p>
<p><a title="Anna Stephens" href="http://seasonswc.com/about/staff/seasons-medical-aesthetics-and-spa" target="_blank">Anna Stephens</a>, WHNP, performs Botox treatments and dermal filler procedures at Seasons – The Spa in Ruston and Seasons Medical Aesthetics in Monroe. She has had advanced training in injecting Botox and receives regular education on injecting.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are constantly learning, evolving, adding services, and exploring new technologies to offer our clients the superior service they have come to expect,&#8221; said Stephens. &#8220;Our clients are not the only ones who have noticed! Seasons – The Spa was named ‘Best of the Delta – Best Medi-Spa 2010′ by Delta Style Magazine and Seasons was voted ‘Best Small Business 2010′ by Ruston-Lincoln Chamber of Commerce and Louisiana Tech University College of Business.&#8221;</p>
<p>Anna Stephens is known for her warm, personal demeanor and passion for extraordinary results and client satisfaction. Establishing a personal relationship that allows her to understand her patient&#8217;s concerns and desires is a key part of her success. Anna’s educational background includes a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing from Northwestern State University and a Master of Science in Nursing with certification as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner from Northwestern State University. She also has special training in numerous aesthetic procedures.</p>
<p>Anna has been injecting Botox and dermal fillers for over 3 years. She attends advanced training every 4-6 months with a clinical trainer from Merz Aesthetics, makers of Radiesse dermal filler. In 2008 and 2010, Anna attended training with Empire Medical. Empire Medical offers training in cosmetic procedures including Botox and many types of dermal fillers. In addition, Anna has received advanced training from Allergan, makers of Botox and Juvederm. She feels educating herself on a regular basis is most important for her technique and for the satisfaction of her clients.</p>
<p>What we value the most at Seasons are the heartfelt words of a satisfied client. Cindy Cardova, a Seasons client, described Anna as &#8220;smart and beautiful.&#8221; And we certainly agree with that. She went on to say this about her Seasons experience: &#8220;I would come see you every day if I could. It is scary to walk into a place where you don&#8217;t know the skill and experience level of the personnel. I would highly recommend [Anna] to any woman seeking these services.&#8221;</p>
<p>To schedule a consultation for Botox or dermal filler treatments, contact the Spa Concierge at Seasons The Spa in Ruston at 318.255.1155 or Seasons Medical Aesthetics in association with It&#8217;s Permanent in Monroe 318.340.1778.</p>

<p>At the ripe old age of 41, I have become a skeptic. A doubter. I am now in the “you have to prove it to me” club.</p>
<p>No. I’m not a skeptic about all things. But when it comes to beauty products, my eyebrow is raised when I see a new product. Sure. I want the wrinkles to diminish. I want fuller lips and longer eyelashes. I just don’t necessarily believe what I read anymore.</p>
<p>I have good news for my fellow skeptics out there! <a title="Latisse" href="http://www.latisse.com/">Latisse</a> works!</p>
<p>Seasons Medical Aesthetics &amp; It’s Permanent have been carrying Latisse for about 2 months. I have always had decent eyelashes and never thought I needed “longer, thicker, and darker” eyelashes. But I wanted to try this product just because I liked the website and I have a good opinion of the manufacturer, <a class="zem_slink" title="Allergan" rel="homepage" href="http://www.allergan.com/">Allergan</a>. So in mid-May, I got my hands on one of the first products we received and, for the last 6 weeks, have been applying Latisse to my eyelashes every night.</p>
<p>It works. Did I say that loud enough?<strong> IT WORKS. </strong>And I didn’t even know that I wanted longer, thicker, darker eyelashes. But I do. They are beautiful. My eyes look better (takes attention off other areas you don’t want your friends looking at…), and I love it. And it’s easy. One drop on the little tiny applicator (a small brush) and wipe gently across your eyelashes. Repeat for the other eye.</p>
<p>Again, let me reiterate: I didn’t think my eyelashes needed help. But now I have a nice frame of lashes around my eyes. I think I’m even more likely to wear no makeup and not feel badly about it!</p>
<p>For more information, check out the <a title="Latisse" href="http://www.latisse.com/?gclid=CN_DhYDa1ZsCFU1M5Qod_0rxMA">Latisse</a> website. Brooke Shields makes a stunning case for how well the product works. While we might all aspire to eyelashes like hers, I don’t think Latisse is going to make us all as beautiful as she is! But that’s okay. Prettier eyelashes are a small check in the win column of life. And I am happy with that! Wink. Wink. (Did you see my beautiful eyelashes?)</p>
<p>Latisse is available at <a title="Seasons Medical Aesthetics &amp; Spa, Ruston" href="http://seasonswc.com/offices/medical-aesthetics/">Seasons &#8211; The Spa</a>, 1809 Northpointe Lane, Suite 202, Ruston, LA, and at Seasons Medical Aesthetics &amp; It’s Permanent, 1033 N. 6th St., Monroe, LA.</p>
