Getting Started with Adrenal Fatigue Treatment

The characterization of adrenal fatigue is a debilitating and relentless fatigue. The primary shock absorbers for the body are the adrenal glands. There are two glands, each the size of a thumb, located on top of the kidneys. These glands produce essential hormones including DHEA, cortisol and norepinephrine to enable the body to react in flexible and healthy ways to the stress of daily life. If you are dealing with this condition, the good news is we offer adrenal fatigue treatment.

The most common signs of adrenal fatigue include:

Waking up feeling groggy
Difficulty getting out of bed in the morning
Needing several cups of caffeinated tea or coffee to be able to start the day
Needing caffeine and sugary snacks to make it through the day
Craving sweets, especially in the afternoon or morning hours
A diagnosis of hypoglycemia
Memory issues and a foggy thinking pattern
Consistently suffering from depression, headaches or infections
Difficulty falling asleep at night despite being thoroughly exhausted
Spending hours at night replaying the issues of the day
Consistently suffering from insomnia
An out of proportion impact of ordinary stress on daily life
A complete loss of interest in sex with no apparent reason

If you fit several of the above descriptions, it may be because your adrenal glands are nearly empty. Even if you have taken all the recommended medical tests and they came back normal, you may be suffering from adrenal fatigue.

The best possible diagnostic approach is to schedule tests during specific periods of the day to test your levels. This is the best way to reveal an incorrect pattern of DHEA or cortisol secretion. The characteristics of adrenal fatigue are cortisol levels that are too low during the morning and too high during the evening. There are a lot of different causes for this condition. One of the main causes is long periods of unabated stress that have not been addressed combined with a diet poor in nutrients.

Your adrenal tests may reveal your production of adrenal hormones is inadequate. In this instance, there are several different adrenal fatigue treatment options. We’ll aim to increase either your cortisol, DHEA or both. The hormone can be taken directly in the correct dosage as recommended by a professional. Your levels should be retested every ninety days. Once your levels are in the normal range again, your dosage should be tapered off gradually until you are no longer taking the hormone.

Why Choose RADIESSE as a Filler?

Ask most women, and they will tell you that a smooth face with natural volume is the best way to look younger and more vibrant. Sun damage and general aging, however, get in the way and cause wrinkles, deep folds and lost volume in the facial contours. It happens to all of us sooner or later, and even Hollywood stars cannot escape the loss of collagen that occurs every year that goes by. Dermal fillers can solve the problem by plumping up the volume, and RADIESSE® is one of the most unique and longer lasting fillers available.

A Special Injectable

RADIESSE® is special in that it acts as a collagen stimulating serum. The calcium Hydroxyapatite (CaHA) microspheres base is ideal for lifting and sculpting the facial features. The CaHa microspheres also create a network under the skin that supplies fibroblast cells to produce fresh collagen for stronger skin integrity.

The thick filler injectable has the ability to boost the skin and replace lost volume, but it also improves skin texture and elasticity and keeps delivering these results over a period of time.

Experienced skin care technicians enjoy working with the filler because it stays put wherever it’s injected. In other words, the filler does not change shape or migrate once injected.

Create a Younger-Looking You

RADIESSE® is superb for facial and hand rejuvenation. It can be injected into the cheeks, temples, forehead and jawline for volume and/or smoothing. The filler is not designed for lip plumping, however, and it is not made for the under eye hollows.

The unique filler is able to sculpt the chin and nose for more definition. It can be injected into the neck for firming and smoothing away lines, too. It also allows the hands to appear more youthful when it is injected on the back of the hands. It restores firmness and plumpness and conceals any vein or joint protrusion.

A RADIESSE® treatment session is fast, safe and requires no downtime. The filler lasts for at least 12 months.

Beauty science has advanced greatly in the last decade, and these days, women have more options for maintaining a youthful face and body. RADIESSE® is an amazing facial filler that does not require surgery. The non-invasive cosmetic treatment can deliver incredible results that show up immediately after injections. The filler restores smoothness and volume that look natural. Choosing the right skin care experts matter, and here at Zormeier Cosmetic Surgery & Longevity Center, our educated staff can answer any questions you may have.

IV Vitamin Therapy for Chronic Fatigue

Chronic fatigue is one of those conditions that is very hard to pinpoint. It could be due to a number of reasons, and sometimes it is difficult to diagnose. Fortunately, practitioners who understand that chronic fatigue is a legitimate health issue do offer effective treatments that help many people overcome this condition. One of the most powerful is IV vitamin therapy. Here is what this therapy can accomplish for you.

Introducing Nutrients into the Bloodstream Faster

One of the major benefits of IV vitamin therapy is that the nutrition needed is ready to be received into the bloodstream. This makes it easier and safer to introduce larger amounts of the nutrients your body is currently lacking. Keep in mind that while the usually recommended levels of nutrients are fine for someone who is currently healthy, they are not sufficient to help the body heal from chronic fatigue. By bypassing the stomach, the nutrients flow through the bloodstream and expedite the healing.

Making It Easier to Enjoy Restful Sleep

Some of the nutrients included in the IV vitamin therapy help you to begin sleeping more soundly. That’s important since recuperative sleep is essential for your central nervous system as well as the immune system. In this sense the IV therapy provides one more way to help your body regain a normal energy level.

Easing the Brain Fog

Chronic fatigue affects your cognitive ability and your emotions as well as your body. Mental fatigue makes it difficult to concentrate on tasks that used to be easy. You also have trouble assimilating new information or even recalling events and information that are familiar. The brain fog paves the way for increased irritability and bouts of anger that seem to come from nowhere. As the IV vitamin therapy begins to take effect, you’ll notice that it’s a little easier to focus your attention and concentrate on tasks.

Providing the Energy to Do Routine Tasks

Many patients who receive IV vitamin therapy notice an incremental but consistent increase in their physical ability. Little by little, a trip to the supermarket does not leave you completely exhausted. You may go from being able to do a load of laundry to drying, folding, and putting it away all in the same day. People who have never experienced chronic fatigue won’t realize how much being able to do things like this and still have energy left over means to you.

Regain Your Aesthetic With Facial Scar Revision

When the skin has been damaged by a burn, surgery, an accident or acne, scarring forms during the healing process when more than one layer of skin has been impacted. Once the scar has formed, it becomes permanent. In many cases, surgery can be used to relocate the scar or make it less visible. Almost everyone is uncomfortable with regards to facial scars. Sometimes this type of scar can diminish the functions of the eyes, nose, and mouth. The best option is usually the procedure of facial scar revision surgery. It is important the expectations of the individual remain realistic and the process is clearly understood.

The Specifics of Facial Scar Revision

Contracture type scars usually require the removal of the entire scar tissue. A new incision line is formed using skin flaps made of unscarred, healthy and adjacent skin. These flaps are simply lifted and moved to form the new line. A skin graft is often used when it is not possible to use a skin flap. During a skin graft, one section of skin tissue is removed from a selected area and attached another area. It is necessary to allow enough time for new soft tissue and blood vessels to form.

Another type of facial scar revision involves relocating the scar to another area such as a natural crease or fold in the skin to make the scar less visible. This will not remove the scar, it simply makes it less visible. Laser resurfacing and dermabrasion are used to decrease the prominence of elevated or rough scars by removing a portion of the upper skin layers with a laser light or an abrading tool. The scar is not removed but it is less visible and smoother.

The Different Types of Scars

The type of treatment used is dependent on the specific scar. Severe burns often heal in a puckered way and impact the contracting movement of the tendons and muscles. Keloid scars are caused by an overproduction of collagen once the wound has already healed. Hypertrophic scars have a raised, thick texture that can restrict the movement of the tendons and muscles with an unsightly appearance. Some scars have a negative impact on the aesthetics of the face while others impact facial expressions. The type of facial scar revision used will depend on the type of scar.

Once you have decided you want to have a facial scar revision, consider visiting Zormeier Cosmetic Surgery & Longevity Center. We have locations in Noblesville, Danville, Shelbyville, and Healdsburg, IN. Every scar is different and the attitude of the individual varies greatly. In some cases more than one technique may be necessary or additional procedures may be required. If you are interested if facial scar revision, contact us today to schedule your consultation!

Understanding Liposuction

Before you have liposuction performed, we recommend you talk to the doctor about the procedure in order to understand what will happen and the results you could see. Your doctor will do everything possible to give you the look and the shape that you want whether it’s on your thighs, buttocks, or another area of your body where excess fat is an issue.

Don’t fear that the results of liposuction won’t be permanent. When the fat cells are removed, they are gone. However, if you gain weight in the future, fat may accumulate in that area of the body. Most patients have liposuction performed on the thighs, hips, stomach, and arms. Your doctor will be able to determine the best area to start with and whether the area you’re looking at is suitable for liposuction.

After liposuction is performed, the skin might look a little different because fat cells are removed. Dimples that are already on your skin could become more pronounced after the procedure. There could be dimples that develop because of liposuction. Keep in mind that the procedure won’t remove stretch marks or other visible imperfections that are on your skin. The best results appear on skin that has good elasticity. If you know you’re going to have liposuction in the future, then try to drink as much water as possible so your skin remains healthy and supple.

When you meet with your doctor, talk about the goals that you have from the procedure. It could be to enhance your self-esteem because you don’t like the way you look. You might want to start wearing different types of clothing and don’t want a lot of excess fat in areas of your body that will show while wearing these types of clothes.

Before you go to have your procedure performed, your medical professional will examine your skin to check the condition and quality. Your vital signs will be checked as well to make sure you’re healthy. Since fat cells won’t generate once again after liposuction, you need to remember that any weight that you gain in the future could impact other areas of your body instead of the area where the procedure was performed.

For more information on what liposuction may be able to do for you, we encourage you to reach out and make an appointment with Zormeier Cosmetic Surgery & Longevity Center! At our convenient locations in Noblesville, Shelbyville, Danville and Healdsburg, our caring and devoted professionals will be pleased to answer any questions you may have.
