| | Dr. Gregg and Megan at Revance® Headquarters | | |
Dr. Gregg and Megan Berrio, CANS Aesthetic Nurse Injector, were invited to an advanced educational and training event at Revance® Headquarters in Nashville. They attended a welcome dinner and then participated in educational and training seminars throughout the weekend. They received advanced training for the Revance® injectable portfolio and SkinPen®, formerly from Crown Aesthetics, which is now part of the Revance® line of products. During the weekend, they met several injectors and physicians from the US and abroad, including Dr. Benji Dhillon, an internationally renowned physician trainer for aesthetic medicine.
“I was thrilled to be invited to this exclusive event. It was a great opportunity to experience Revance® and Crown Aesthetics together after the merger and SkinPen® as part of the Revance® offering. Meetings like this are so valuable so we can meet with other injectors nationwide and also have access to the people behind the excellent Revance® portfolio.” – Megan Berrio, CANS Aesthetic Nurse Injector

Q: I’m 51 years old, and peri-menopausal. I am gaining weight in my abdomen, despite going to the gym and eating relatively healthily. I eventually want to have a tummy tuck, but I’m unsure of weight requirements for surgery. What should my nutrition goals be to be ready for surgery?
A: Being at or near your appropriate goal weight is an important part of preparation for surgery. Both for your safety and the best possible surgical outcome, being at a reasonable weight and BMI are essential.

This practice is top notch! From the moment you walk in the door, you're greeted with a smile. The service is thoughtful, kind and individualized. Dr. Gregg & Dr. Wu are extremely skilled at their craft. I am grateful to receive excellent advice/thorough consultations and care. The results are high quality and very natural looking. I have also seen Lisa for micro needling. Wow--the results from just two sessions are *amazing*! Last but certainly not least, Melissa has changed my life. Her skill & personalized consultations/treatment took my pain level from a daily 8/9 to a 2/3. With each Botox injection session, I continue to see reduced pain, and I am now on a maintenance schedule only. I highly recommend this practice--they are amazing and your experience will be too! – M.H.

Summer is fleeting, but not the heat and humidity! This weather plays havoc on your skin, and it needs help! To take care of your skin in this weather, cleanse gently, use lightweight moisturizers, always wear a mineral SPF of 30+, stay hydrated, take cool not hot showers, keep your hands off your face, take breaks from the sun, try to limit sun exposure during peak hours, and wear a hat and sunglasses. We look forward to seeing you in August!
Dr. Gregg, Dr. Wu, Alma, Andrea, Ashley, Brianna, Darnetta, Dawn, Emily, Jennifer, Lisa, Lorie, Megan, Melissa, Monique, Nadine, Nena, Sri, and Sue
