Business Note

DO YOU EVER get frustrated, discouraged, or even depressed because you have a deep sense, a gnawing in your heart or gut, that you were made for more? I do.

I recently read a great book, The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, and only five pages in the main character says, “I always thought it was what I wanted: To be loved and admired. Now I think perhaps I’d love to be known.” Her statement stopped me in my tracks. That kind of personal insight is something so many of my friends and clients long for, yet very few are given the gift to know what they truly want.

But I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s go back to my initial statement - “You Were Made for More.” What exactly do I mean?

I believe that our society, and possibly our world, has traded the full weight and meaning of your life and mine for less meaningful and less significant things. Your work means more than the way you take care of financial and material needs. Your identity and value as a human being aren’t based on what you do or whether you’re important or currently trending in your small circle. You were created for so much more - to have a life that has a significant impact on, and mean-

IN ing in, the world. OTHER w�rd� Unfortunately, most people blindly accept the world’s minimizing definitions of what their lives are meant to be and can be. They accept lesser definiBY DR. JIM BAILEY tions of their potential impact and meaning then settle for the watered-down aspirations and goals these definitions allow. Until, that is, something within them recognizes they were made for more than a plain oatmeal life and begins to kick back and demand more. So, how do you KNOW what your “More” should look like? You start by taking an honest look at your life and asking yourself hard but important questions. You ask yourself things like: • What kind of man or woman or person am I, and who do I want to be? • What sorts of relationships do I have, and what kind would I like to have? • What do I do to earn a living, and how would I like that to be different? • What am I doing to enjoy the life I’m given, and how can I do that better? • What kind of legacy would I leave if I died today, and how would I like that to be different?

You’re not just asking yourself about the things you want for today or tomorrow; you’re asking about what you want to be true about you when you are 65 years old (or 10 years from now if you’re already there or older).

Begin by writing down the answers to the questions above. It may take a while, AND those questions may not be enough. You may want to add to them by defining what you want in specific aspects of your life. The point of the exercise is to help you start defining what kind of life you want to have so you can move purposefully toward it, rather than letting your daily circumstances determine your direction.

Defining your “More” is a first step toward establishing the targets you want to move toward in your life. On my website, I’ll talk about how we establish the mindset and actions that help us reach those targets. Establishing a vision for your life is just one of the ways I help Career and Business coaching clients take steps toward the work-life they want.

EvolveX NON-INVASIVE CONTOURING TREATMENT

MATTHEW B. DOPPELT D.O., F.A.O.C.D., F.A.A.D.

Board Certified Dermatologist

LOOKING FOR a non-invasive way to tighten loose skin, enhance muscle tone, smooth cellulite, and contour your body? If so, it’s time to Evolve. EvolveX by Inmode is here to help you tone and tighten - all without an invasive procedure and with minimal downtime.

EvolveX offers non-surgical body contouring through its three different procedures: Evolve Tite, Evolve Transform, and Evolve Tone. All three Evolve procedures are available at Southeastern Dermatology.

What is EvolveX Technology?

EvolveX technology, used to shape and tone your body, relies on radio frequency (RF) energy to deliver heat and results. When applied by skilled medical professionals - like Dr. Doppelt and his staff - the RF energy in EvolveX can deliver target fat reduction, skin tightening, and cellulite reduction.

EvolveX can be used in many areas of the body. In fact, you might be able to target multiple body areas during a single session. Areas of the body that respond well to EvolveX technology include the arms, hips, thighs, waist, and love handles.

EvolveX comes in three different treatments: Evolve Tite, Evolve Tone, and Evolve Transform. While Evolve Tite relies on RF technology, Evolve Tone uses electromagnetic technology. Evolve Transform uses both.

Evolve Tite

Evolve Tite remodels the skin by tightening loose or sagging areas. It is a non-invasive procedure that can be done in Dr. Doppelt’s office during a lunch break. This quick and easy procedure can be customized to meet your specific concerns. It can treat loose skin on the tummy after pregnancy or weight loss, loose skin on the upper arms, and other trouble spots.

The Evolve Tite treatment is delivered via a hands-free applicator. Applicators can be applied to multiple body areas at once. The Evolve Tite procedure was developed under very strict medical guidelines and has been optimized to provide maximum results, even when multiple areas are targeted.

Evolve Tite works by using radiofrequency technology to apply volumetric heat to the skin’s subdermal layers. The radiofrequency technology ensures the heat is delivered uniformly, so no area of the application area is over or under treated.

Evolve Tite is recommended for anyone who seeks natural-looking skin remodeling. It can give skin a tighter, more youthful appearance. There is no downtime or recovery period. The procedure is quick and painless, and you can return to regular activities immediately.

Dr. Doppelt and his staff can tell you how many Evolve Tite treatments you’ll need to achieve your aesthetic goals.

Evolve Tone

Sometimes you don’t get the results you want no matter how many reps you do in the gym or miles you log running on the road. If you’re seeking to tighten and tone your body and muscles, Evolve Tone might be the answer.

Evolve Tone can add definition and enhance your natural physique. It is a non-invasive treatment that requires no downtime and won’t leave you with unsightly scars. Evolve Tone can increase muscle strength and tone.

Evolve Tone relies on a different technology than Evolve Tite. Evolve Tone uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate the muscles and cause involuntary contractions. Your muscles contract in a way that replicates a workout - sweat not required. The treatment can be used on many areas of the body, including the abdomen, flanks, and buttocks.

Like other Evolve treatments, Evolve Tone is painless and involves no downtime. The number of sessions required depends on your goals and can be determined by Dr. Doppelt.

Evolve Transform

While Evolve Tite targets loose and sagging skin and Evolve Tone increases muscle strength and tone, Evolve Transform uses two kinds of technology in one innovative procedure that builds and strengthens muscles while enhancing the appearance of your skin and treating fat using both electrical muscle stimulation to strengthen and tone while radio frequency provides deep heating of tissue and fat. The end result is a sculpted, leaner appearance with tighter skin.

Evolve Transform is delivered by a medical professional with a hands-free applicator. Multiple body areas can be targeted at once. Evolve Transform can be used to provide a slimmer, smoother appearance to the back, and, arms, thighs, and other areas of the body.

Are you ready to take a step toward a more youthful appearance? Tighten up, smooth it out, and tone it up with EvolveX treatments at Southeastern Dermatology. No matter whether you choose Evolve Tite, Tone, or Transform, we can provide a customized treatment plan to help you reach your aesthetic goals.
