n effective, chemical-free, surgery-free way to rejuvenate and refresh your face and reduce wrinkles and sagging is available at American Regenerative Clinic in Bingham Farms. Thread lifting and Ultra V High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) face-lifts are less damaging, less expensive and more beneficial than surgical face-lifts. In a natural thread face-lift, tiny multi-strand, absorbable threads are injected to form a sort of scaffold to maximize activation of the patient’s own cells and collagen production. The sterile threads are of the highest quality and cause minimal pain when inserted. During threading procedure we often add injections of stem cells, PRP, fat, lipodissolve solutions, etc. Another effective technique, the Ultra V HIFU, represents a breakthrough in technology by using ultrasound that penetrates deeper than the surface layers of the skin to target Dr. Andrey connective tissues in the face, from Lutskovsky a drooping forehead to a sagging chin. Results can be seen with one treatment and can last for months to years. By applying one or both of these methods, facial skin is tightened and lifted, with a short recovery time and natural-looking result, making these youth-restoring options more and more popular among clients at American Regenerative Clinic. Dr. Andrey Lutskovsky, D.O. and certified functional medicine practitioner at American Regenerative Clinic, learned the thread and Ultra V HIFU face-lift techniques from Dr. Kwon. Dr. Kwon holds international acclaim for his techniques and products for aesthetic and antiaging medicine, which he has practiced and trained practitioners in for more than 20 years. He has a chain of Dermaster clinics all over the world. For more info, internet search "UltraV Lift."

VEGAN FITNESS A Healthy Choice for Body and Planet

ennis champion Venus Williams and New England Patriots star quarterback Tom Brady are among the athletes that opt for healthy, plant-dominant diets to reach their personal best, a trend that belies some misconceptions about what it means to be vegan. “Going vegan implies a larger, lifestyle choice based on personal ethics, but athletes report that they just feel better,” says Brenda Carey, editor-in-chief of Vegan Health and Fitness Magazine. “They’re also surprised at how well they put on muscle after making this dietary change.” A balanced vegan diet can provide everything an active body needs for muscle mass, stamina and recovery while lowering the risk of heart disease. A 2018 meta-analysis of 40 studies published in the peer-reviewed journal PLOS One concludes that a plant-powered diet fosters a healthier cardio-metabolic profile. According to Dutch researchers, amping up nutrition from plants may also lower the risk of insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. Devotees report unexpected perks. “I recover faster. I also have more natural energy without the need for caffeine and reduced inflammation, as confirmed in blood tests,” says Matt Tullman, managing partner of the community-building website NoMeatAthlete.com and CEO of vegan supplement maker Complement, in Boulder, Colorado.
