1. Sunscreen.  Come try Obagi’s new SPF 50 clear zinc sunscreen.  I love the micronized zinc sunscreens.  They are a physical blocker (not chemical) and it really works.  Windburn while skiing = sunburn.  Protect your face.

2. Moisturizer.  Try my brand moisturizer.  I love it.  It moisturizes without causing breakouts.  It also has Vitamins A, C, E, green tea, and coenzyme Q. 

SO.  SPECIAL PRICE to those of you who read my blogs and are fans of me on facebook.

Buy both together for $55.  That is a savings of $21!! You must tell my staff the codeword- “Winterize.”  Offer good til Feb 21.

But it, like so many things which help your appearance, needs to be done on a regular basis.  Each kit costs $75-100,  (EXCEPT FOR NOW AS I AM DOING MY BUY ONE GET ONE FREE SALE!!!!) and if you use one kit a month, for a year… well that gets pricey.  So the real question is- what can you do to extend the effect? 

• You need to build them up.  So you should do it full time for two months. 
• Then you can go on “maintenance” which is every other or every third day
• I have heard from patients (**this is not the official recommendation**) that using a different eyeliner brush helps extend the material
• I have also heard from a reputable source that they think the key is 4 kits a year after your initial 2 month daily routine.

Hmmm.  4 kits?  We spend so much on mascara and eyeliner and shadows.  And if you are doing the fake lashes then you are spending even more.  The results with latisse are fantastic for most of my patients.  So if you are looking to have lovely lashes for the new year … HO HO HO?  Maybe Santa can slip these into your stocking last minute?  Or a little gift from you for you.  Happy new year? Here’s looking at 2012 with lovelier lashes??

 (My latisse special is 2 boxes for $100, which is cheaper than I can buy it- I can do it through a grant, and the boxes all expire in 2013.)

So stock up quickly.  When they are gone, they are gone.  Office is open the week between Christmas and New Years…

• Spend $350 and
• join or are a member to their “inner circle program”
• For purchases made between Dec 1-14. 

Stock up! If you purchase the Nuderm line, you would qualify.  Need elastiderm? Retin A? Clear? A travel Nuderm? If you are thinking of a blue peel, you start by prepping your skin with the NuDerm line. 

Go to www.obagi.com/ic for more information.

So starting today, you get a free latisse when you buy one.

For anyone who knows anything about this, you can’t beat this deal.  This is real latisse.  Expiration dates are in 2013.  So stock up.  Buy Christmas and Hannukah presents.  Stimulate the economy.  Put some away for a rainy day.  Give yourself a little present.

Quantities are limited.  So come in soon.

And have lovely lashes all year long….

Doing a special for youon botox.

Monday December 12.

All day.  $50 off one area, $100 off two. 

Treats and fun things as well.  The season of giving is upon us.  And I am thankful, so I want to share.  I will also be posting lovely little things on my facebook site, so check it out and become a fan! (if you are not doing so already).  http://www.facebook.com/laurengreenbergmd

CURRENT SPECIAL: $50 off each vial, up to 3 vials.

My patients overall have loved it. The only issue I have heard of is bruising. To help stack the deck in your favor, please read my blogs on how to avoid bruising. Also ice your face on the way into the office.

I have loved the results- I think it is a beautiful, natural change.

1. I have tons of goodies coming up. 

• Did you print out your brilliant distinctions coupon? If you are signed up, you will get rebates which you print out and bring in to me for additional money saved.  This is good for Allergan products: Latisse, Juvederm, Botox.
• Botox special day: September 8.  This may be the last one of this for a while (I am able to offer it with help from the rep).  24 units for $275, 48 for $450. 
• $100 off each syringe of Juvederm.  Til September 15.  This is not a mail in rebate. Read my blog on what to do before doing filler to avoid bruising! (it works!)
• Restylane and Dysport (another brand of botox) day.  September 15.  Use two syringes of Restylane, and get a free area of Dysport (a $325 value!!)  Dysport also has a special going on right now, where you get $50 off each treatment, and another $50 off if you can show you used Botox or Dysport from 3-12 months ago. (These are mail in rebates for the money off, the free area of Dysport is from here.)

2.  Groupon and other “deals of the day” and plastic surgery.

I have not done any of these.  Today I got the Plastic Surgery Practice magazine, and their lead article was about doctor offices and the “deal of the day” sites.  They state “Partnerships between medical practices and third party “deal of the day” organizations such as Groupon, when based on compensation per lead is fee splitting, which is violation of the law in many jurisdictions.”  I do not mean to single out Groupon.  There are many sites: livingsocial, dailydibs, etc.  In the article the people interviewed do feel these laws are antiquated and have not caught up with the internet and e-commerce age. But as of now, deals of the day are in a legal gray area.

Until everything is clearer, I will stick with the good old fashioned specials.  They might not be broadcast widely, but I am more about grass root support anyway.

Please feel free to forward on to a friend.

$50 off one area (24 units. Final cost $275)

$100 off two areas (48 units. Final cost $450)

Doctor injected. Fresh botox. 

Brilliant distinctions coupons and discounts CAN be used with this offer.  I can’t extend this discount to any other day- I am only able to do this through a special deal I get which I pass on to you.

Buy one get one free ends April 30.

Come on in if you want to stock up.  (This price for two boxes is better than we can buy as doctors!) 

Have lovely lashes all summer long….

Brilliant distinctions is not that way. It is a frequent flier program for botox and you actually get money back and discounts. I hate getting tons of emails, and understand reluctance to these things, but if you are going to do botox, might as well save some money. And they promise not to send more than a handful of emails a year.

There currently is a promo:
Raffle giveaway if you refer friends to sign up. They are giving away $1000, $100, and $50 gift cards.

And when your friend signs up she gets a $50 credit.

Allergan is trying to build brand loyalty. Take advantage of this by getting their promotions.  As I said before, if you are going to do this stuff, might as well save some money.
