Kybella, the breakthrough ‘double chin’ treatment,’ available NOW at Cobb Wellness & Aesthetics

KYBELLA IS NOW AVAILABLE AT OUR OFFICE.

Kybella is the first injectable treatment for submental fat to get the FDA’s nod of approval. It was originally made by Kythera Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. a company based in Westlake Village, California, which has been acquired by Allergan, the manufacturers of Botox.

Why Choose Kybella? It is a minimally invasive procedure that can significantly improve your chin profile. The treatment can be done in-office in less than 30 minutes. While most patients will experience a noticeable reduction in under-chin fat within 2 treatments. Up to 4 treatments may be required. Importantly though, you don’t need to undergo any anesthesia or invasive surgery to remove the fat beneath your chin.

Kybella must be administered by physicians with the requisite experience in handling injectables, and Linda Kelley, MD, has over 14 years’ experience in anti-aging medicine. Give Cobb Wellness & Aesthetics and Dr. Kelley a call today to learn more.  If you are unhappy with the fullness under your chin we can help! Simply fill out the form in the top right corner or call 770-649-0094 to see if Kybella is right for you.

The Best Tips for Getting In Beach Body Shape

Summer is ust around the corner – and that means more time spent at the beach! If you mastered your New Year’s Resolution of losing weight, you’re probably ready to show off all of your hard work.

But if you spent much of this cold winter huddled away inside and eating your favorite comfort foods, the thought of revealing your beach body might leave you feeling a little panicked.  Fortunately, there’s still time to get ready for that bikini.  Here are the best tips for getting in beach body shape, courtesy of Dr. Linda Kelley of Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, GA:

1. Start cleaning up your diet. While you don’t have to sacrifice every food you love, start incorporating more veggies into your daily meals.  Aim for four servings of veggies per day, with a lean protein at most meals. Limit your treats to one day per week, where you can have a “cheat” day.

2. Find a workout or fitness class that genuinely challenges you. Jogging on the treadmill can burn calories, but if you need to get that beach body, you need to shock your body and challenge your muscles.  Sign up for a spinning class, try Zumba with a friend, or give an at-home program like Intensity or P90X a try.

3. Drink at least 64 ounces of water per day. This will flush away water weight, which can help you look less bloated and much leaner when you’re on the beach.

Of course, there’s a way you can get the beach body you’ve always wanted faster – and you’ll find it at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics.

Dr. Kelley offers a highly effective HCG diet, which is medically supervised and customized to your exact specifications.  HCG is a powerful hormone that helps torch fat while kick-starting your metabolism; clients who have been on the HCG diet have lost as much as a pound a day.

Once you start your weight-loss journey, Dr. Kelley can use Exilis treatments to tighten skin and contour any trouble spots.  Exilis uses powerful radiofrequency heat to destroy fat cells as well as promote collagen and elastin production.  The end result is tighter, younger-looking skin that shows off all of your hard work.

How to Get Rid of Love Handles and Fat

Spring is officially here – and that means summer is soon to follow.  But if you’re not ready for a season of tank tops, shorts, and dresses, then it might be time for a little push in the right direction.

If one of your trouble spots happens to be your love handles – the nice-sounding term for the excess fat that hangs over your hips – then it’s time to contour the fat so you look slimmer and toner in your jeans.  While diet and exercise might not always target love handles, the innovative Exilis body treatment at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, GA (also serving the greater Atlanta metro area).

Owned and operated by Dr. Linda Kelley, Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics is pleased to offer Exilis treatments to spot treat love handles and excessive fat around the hips and waist.  Exilis is an effective treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to help remove fat in common trouble areas, including love handles, arms, thighs, stomach, and buttocks.

The way Exilis works is surprisingly simple; Dr. Kelley uses the handheld device to deliver radiofrequency energy to the love handles, which heats up fat cells.  As these fat cells become hotter, they eventually become destroyed (this happens without damaging the healthy tissue surrounding the fat cells).  Over time, these destroyed fat cells are removed from the body via waste removal processes.

As an added bonus, the same heating sensation promotes collagen and elastin production, which leads to tighter and firmer-looking skin.  This benefit is why Exilis is often used as an anti-aging treatment, in addition to body contouring.

Interested in undergoing an Exilis treatment?  Many clients often report seeing results after a single session, but for ideal results, you’ll need to undergo four to six treatments.  Some clients even report seeing a reduction of two to four inches from their waistlines.

One of the biggest advantages of undergoing this treatment is that there’s no recovery time; you can return to your normal activities after your treatment.

For more information about the Exilis treatment and how it can help reduce your love handles, call (770) 649-0094 to schedule a consultation with Dr. Kelley at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, GA.  Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics also serves the greater metro Atlanta area.

Got Damaged Skin? Here’s Your Solution

Let’s face it: you know that going out into the sun without sunscreen is bad for you.  You know that you’re supposed to take off your make-up at the end of every night.  And you definitely know that if you want better skin, you shouldn’t smoke.  But sometimes, life happens.

Unfortunately, those sunburns and late nights may have already taken a toll on your skin – and if your complexion has wrinkles, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and any other signs of damage, you’ll need professional-grade skincare solutions.

That’s exactly what you’ll find at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, GA.

Repair Your Damaged Skin at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics

Owned and operated by Dr. Linda Kelley, Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics (serving the greater metro Atlanta area) offers an eclectic menu of innovative skincare treatments designed to tackle your biggest complexion woes.  Whether you want to eliminate sun damage or smooth away wrinkles and fine lines, here is one of the most powerful treatments for damaged skin:

• The first step will involve smoothing rough skin that might show signs of sun damage. To do this, Dr. Kelley will use a Mixto fractional laser for facial rejuvenation.  This fractional CO2 laser is designed to do it all; in fact, it can eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, reduce acne scars, fade hyperpigmentation, tighten crepey skin, and even reduce those hard-to-treat wrinkles around the mouth.

This laser uses pulses to permeate and heat the skin, which produces an immediate tightening effect.  The heat also promotes faster cellular turnover, which helps push younger-looking skin to the surface.

• Kelley may also use a microneedling treatment with Dermapen, which makes tiny punctures in the skin (don’t worry – it only feels like a mild stinging sensation). Once these punctures have been made, the body goes into healing mode – which means that it produces an excessive amount of collagen and elastin to repair the wounds.  Over time, this results in younger-looking skin with faded scars and minimized hyperpigmentation.

• In addition to these treatments, Dr. Kelley may also opt to alternate with medical-grade chemical peels, which effectively remove the dead and dull layer of skin on your face. These treatments can help speed up the renewal process, which means you’ll see faded scars and hyperpigmentation at a faster rate.

You don’t have to put up with damaged skin.  Schedule a consultation with Dr. Kelley at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, GA today.  Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics also serves the greater metro Atlanta area.

Anti-Aging Tips From The Inside Out

So many anti-aging tips focus on how you can get your skin to look as young as possible.  In fact, you can flip open any magazine or turn on the television to see endless advertisements about shrinking pores and minimizing wrinkles.  But if you truly want to look your youngest, it’s not enough to just focus on your skin’s appearance…

You need to focus on anti-aging tips from the inside out.

Ever heard the expression about how when you’re happy, you appear more beautiful?  There’s a lot of truth in that: When you take care of yourself in terms of nutrition, exercise, and hormones, you won’t have to solely rely on your skincare regimen to help you look younger – because you’ll already feel younger!

Ready to start feeling like you’re as young on the inside as you are on the outside?  Then it’s time to schedule an appointment with Atlanta’s premier cosmetic destination: Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, Georgia.  Serving the greater Atlanta area, Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics is owned by Dr. Linda Kelley, an expert in anti-aging medicines.

Part of her expertise includes using natural bioidentical hormones to help increase energy, mental concentration, and even sex drive.  Bioidentical hormones are identical to the body’s natural hormones, except they’re derived from plants.  These hormones can help reduce some of the most common symptoms of aging, including:

• Hot flashes
• Mental fogginess
• Low libido
• Vaginal dryness
• Erectile dysfunction
• Constant fatigue

Bioidentical hormones are an excellent solution for clients who want to feel energetic and revitalized.  Dr. Kelley can work with you to identify the best bioidentical hormones based on your symptoms and needs.  Dr. Kelley will also monitor your hormones to ensure you’re experiencing the best results possible.

In addition to bioidentical hormones, Dr. Kelley also offers a range of skincare treatments that ensure your skin looks as good as you feel.  From Botox fillers and chemical peels to skin tightening treatments with Excilis, you’ll find everything you need to look and feel younger.

Fill and Tighten Skin With A Unique Combination Treatment

Looking more youthful doesn’t always come down to simply removing wrinkles and fine lines from your skin.  If you want to achieve an appearance that’s natural, radiant, and makes you look like you’ve taken a decade off your face, you need to tackle aging at multiple sources.

Ready to start peeling away those years?  Then it’s time to make an appointment at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics in Roswell, GA (also serving the greater Atlanta area).  Owned and operated by Dr. Linda Kelley, Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics specializes in using the most innovative anti-aging treatments around.  As an anti-aging expert, Dr. Kelley combines many of these treatments to deliver the best results possible in less time.

One of the most popular combination treatments Dr. Kelley offers is the Exilis and Sculptra combo.  Let’s take a closer look at how this can make you look younger, thanks to a combination of skin tightening and filling:

• Exilis elite is a popular FDA approved treatment that uses the power of radio frequency waves to help promote skin tightening within the deepest levels of the dermis. Exilis elite is an upgraded technology that is more effective. Exilis is often used for body contouring too, which means your treatment areas will look more streamlined and toned.  Exilis heats up the skin cells, which promotes accelerated collagen production.  The end result is tighter, firmer looking skin that seems to glow from within.

• Once you’ve tightened your skin, Dr. Kelley can use Sculptra to take your results to the next level. This treatment is ideal for clients who may have decreased levels of collagen, as it immediately replaces lost collagen and promotes natural collagen production within the body.  Sculptra is delivered to the treatment area and immediately provides natural-looking volume, which can help minimize the appearance of wrinkles and nasolabial folds (the deep line that extend from the nostrils to the corners of the mouth).  What’s more, the results from Sculptra can last for up to two years, making this a smart choice for clients who want to look good without major upkeep.

With this combination treatment, Dr. Kelley and Staff can have you looking younger, more radiant, and natural.  In fact, don’t be surprised if your friends and family members start begging you for your anti-aging secrets.

How to Effectively Lose Weight and Tighten Problem Areas

It’s already the start of February – and that means your New Year’s resolutions have been in full swing for over a month.  Or have they been?  Less than ten percent of people stick to their resolutions throughout the year, with many of these people ditching their goals by the last week in January.  One of the most popular resolutions is to lose weight – so if you want to stick to your goals, you need a weight-loss plan that will actually work.

Many weight-loss resolutions fail because they’re not properly planned and monitored by an expert.  After all, it can be difficult to stick to a diet or an exercise plan when you’re not accountable to anyone.  Fortunately, there’s a way to safely lose weight, all while enjoying skin-tightening and toning benefits…

And you’ll only find it at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics, based in the greater Atlanta, GA area.

Owned and operated by Dr. Linda Kelley, Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics specializes in medically-supervised weight loss plans, as well as body sculpting and skin tightening treatments.  If you’re interested in losing weight, sculpting your body, and tightening your skin, here’s what you’ll discover at Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics:

• You’ll meet with Dr. Kelley, who will take a blood sample and assess your medical history, eating habits, and exercise regimen. This can help Dr. Kelley determine if you’re a viable candidate for this program.

• You’ll receive a weekly supply of hcG-sublingual drops or injections, which is a natural hormone that has been shown to lead to significant yet safe weight loss over a shorter period of time. You’ll be monitored by Dr. Kelley and her staff each week to view your results, as well as talk about your experiences on this program.  The program lasts for 13-weeks, with many clients losing between 15 to 20 pounds.

• During the treatment, you’ll undergo Exilis treatments, which is a unique skin tightening and sculpting treatment. Exilis uses radiofrequency energy to heat up fat cells beneath the skin’s surface, thus causing them to shrink and eventually be removed by the body’s waste processes.  Exilis also encourages skin tightening and smoothing, which can help you show off the results of all your hard work.

Food Sensitivities: Are They Making You Fat?

Food sensitivities have received a lot of press lately.  From lactose intolerance to gluten-free foods, those with food sensitivities are met with more choices than what was available just five years ago.  After all, you don’t have to go very far to find coffee shops, restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores stuffed to the brim with foods for every sensitivity imaginable.

If you’ve been ignoring these trends or not paying attention to the news about food sensitivities, then it’s time to wake up – because food sensitivities might be making you fat.

Surprised?  First, it’s important to note the distinction between food sensitivities and food allergies.  Allergies can cause immediate and severe symptoms, some of which can be fatal in rare cases.  Food sensitivity, on the other hand, only causes discomfort, which isn’t apparent until several hours after you’ve consumed the offending food.  For example, if you’re allergic to gluten (Celiac’s Disease), consuming gluten will damage the small intestine, leading to several health conditions.  If you’re sensitive to gluten, you may experience bloating, fatigue, and other symptoms a few hours after eating something with gluten in it…

And one of those symptoms could be weight gain.

If you’re allergic to a food, you know it – but if you’re sensitive to a food, you might not make the necessary correlation between your symptoms and the offending food.  You might blame your fatigue on not getting enough rest the night before, or weight gain on getting older.  Yet food sensitivity can cause inflammation within the body, as well as disturb your metabolic processes – this can all lead to weight gain and even obesity.  It’s precisely why some researchers are calling for a more nutritional approach to treating to Type-1 diabetes, rather than pharmacological.

In addition to causing obesity, it’s also though that food sensitivity can exacerbate the aging process, due to the release of toxins during inefficient digestion.  Therefore, it’s in your best interest to determine if you have a food sensitivity and create a nutrition plan based on your results.

At Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics – serving the greater Atlanta – specializes in testing clients for food sensitivities and creating nutrition plans around these findings. Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics is owned and operated by Dr. Linda Kelley, an expert in anti-aging and nutritional medicines.
