The answer, yes it works. According to Dr. Lukash, Botox affects neuromuscular activity, paralyzing the activity of your sweat glands. While it won’t dry up your underarms completely, it can significantly reduce wetness in those who have hyperhidrosis, or an over active sweat gland. The procedure entails about 10-12 shots of Botox in a spiral or bull’s-eye-like formation around the underarm, with anywhere from 25 to 50 units of Botox in each arm. Dr. Lukash’s tried and true approach to Botox is “less is more.” He knows from experience to always start off slow, as you can always increase the amount of Botox used, but the only way to decrease (if you go overboard) is to wait it out. There is no magic undo button. Plus, by starting off slow, Dr. Lukash says he can get to know what works for your body, what “dosage” your body responds best to. This not only gives you better, more customized results, but it can also save you time and money (why pay for 50 units if you only need 30?).
First we started on my stomach, where Elana created somewhat of a bull’s-eye around my belly button, strategically placing individually wrapped and sterile acupuncture needles into my skin with a “tap, tap” motion (that you can see in the video). I couldn’t feel any of the needles entering my skin at all. I was so surprised. Then she moved to my left shoulder, to work on the opposite pressure points to relieve pain in my right shoulder. I only felt one of the needles with a very slight twinge or vibration as it was secured into my shoulder, but other than that… I felt nothing. Then, moving onto my ears, Elena placed three needles in each; I felt the acupuncture points for heart (anxiety), for sugar cravings and for appetite a little bit more, with a dull pinch in each point. Next, she tap-tapped one needle in the center of my forehead, in the heart position for balance. Moving back to my stomach, Elana placed little alligator electrode clips onto the needles still in my stomach to pulse an electric current though the meridians in my stomach, increasing the impact of the needles. It felt like a light vibration or buzzing throughout my skin. After a little tuning fork vibrational therapy and some more relaxing, Elena removed the needles and I was off to see Danna for my facial.

Danna, a very skilled esthetician, cleansed and toned my face with customized cleansers selected for my skin type (I have dry skin) and the assessed my skin under a large florescent magnifying glass. Then, after donning some super stylish protective eyewear, using the Laser Genesis machine, Danna skillfully passed the laser wand over my entire face, as it pulsated warm, red light into the upper dermis of my skin. The heat, which felt similar to the warmth emitted by a low-grade tanning bed, essentially warmed up the lower layers of my skin, to kick-start collagen renewal, improve the appearance of large pores, acne scars, as well as fine lines and wrinkles. After a few minutes, there was a weird aroma and without me even having to ask, Danna informed me that the scent was of the invisible hairs on my face being slightly singed by the powerful laser (can you say free face wax?! ha ha). After the treatment, Danna applied a customized facial mask and gave me a magnificent little shoulder and arm massage. After the mask was removed, my face was cleansed, toned moisturized (with SPF) and I even got a little SPF lip moisturizer to boot.
When was the last time you thought about your teeth? This morning at the sink? Eating corn on the cob during July 4th festivities? But, when was the last time you really thought about the health of your teeth? When it hurt your molars drinking hot coffee the other day? When you had an uncomfortable twinge of pain from the shock of ice water while at the gym? Or when you rubbed your tongue over that fuzzy coating of plague this morning? Maybe you do think about the health of your teeth more often than you think… but what about your gums?
Ironically enough, I had been shopping around for a dentist on ZocDoc.com, when a friend forwarded me some pretty scary information from 









… and this is the way we finished up the rest of our interview…
New Yorkers, if you are looking for boring, stuffy or stuck-up dentists who are too busy to give a you-know-what about you, these are not them! These two men are extremely educated, awarded and skilled smile doctors who actually practice what they preach… everything is better with a healthy smile and a good laugh.
