Martha, Our Permanent Makeup Artist

The techniques and the look of permanent makeup have come a long way.  Nowadays, patients see their results as an betterment of their own features – especially when it comes to our permanent makeup artist, Martha’s, expertise.  In fact, when asked, patients overwhelmingly express their gratitude for the beautiful outcome they’ve achieved.  

Permanent makeup, when done well, can achieve much more than just taking the hassle out of having to apply it daily and making your facial attributes pop.  As we age, we start to see changes in our features such as fine lines around the lips and a diminishing thickness of our eyebrows and eyelashes.  Permanent makeup helps to soften the appearance of lip lines and assists in keeping your lipstick where it belongs – on your lips – as well as restoring the image of fuller, more youthful looking eyebrows and eyelashes.

Combining 12 years of experience and over 75 custom blended colors, Martha has developed an artistry and skill that delivers a gentle, natural-looking result.  She works with your own skin tone to complement and reinforce your unique features so that you truly see it as an enhancement of your already fabulous self!

If you’ve been considering permanent makeup or are curious about what Martha can help you to achieve, schedule a time to come by and let her show you the numerous benefits and rewards of this type of makeup application.  She offers complimentary consultations and is always delighted to answer all your questions.

Once her treatments were complete, she asked a friend for help with a referral to a board certified plastic surgeon to perform her reconstruction. DeAnne’s friend led her to respected Washington, DC area plastic surgeon and Center for Plastic Surgery Medical Director, Albert F. Fleury.  DeAnne remembers back to that important decision, “Both Dr. Fleury’s reputation and that of his father, led me to have him as my surgeon for all of my associated reconstructive procedures.”

Fast forward to a few years later: a cancer-free DeAnne decided to give herself a lift, both figuratively and literally.  She recalls, “I had had several required (non-elective) surgeries, and now wanted to do something by my choosing. It was time to give myself a boost.”

Again, DeAnne visited Dr. Fleury, but this time, the lift she wanted was for her face and eyes.  ”Although I had been contemplating the facelift for a year or two, I didn’t hesitate one minute as to who should perform the surgery. I only considered Dr. Fleury.”

For DeAnne, there were several other factors that were on her “critical list” besides the surgeon.  Of utmost importance was the way she felt about the rest of her care team. “A physicians’ office staff is a very important part of treatment. Those who work for CPS are outstanding, compassionate and caring individuals. They treated me as an individual.  All of my experiences with the office staff have been exceptional.”

With her myriad of experiences with physicians and caregivers during her cancer treatments, DeAnne knew what differentiated a good experience from a bad one. And for her, it came down to one critical component:  ”Communication is key. It is important that a patient is part of the process and knowledge of the procedure, what to expect is important. I felt I learned a great deal and Dr. Fleury and his staff were open to answering all my questions.”

Among the most important factors for DeAnne was the AAASF accreditation of the surgery facility, that her anesthesia was being administered by a board certified anesthesiologist, and that the OR personnel were as highly skilled as possible. Safety was paramount. But in the end, DeAnne relied on Dr. Fleury’s reputation for excellence, and how he made her feel.  “I was anxious as anyone is before surgery. Dr. Fleury and I have a history in the operating room. He puts you at ease and I trust him, these are areas of importance.”

When asked what advice she would give to other patients thinking about facial rejuvenation, DeAnne replied, “It took me awhile to decide to do this, but I am so happy I did. After some very trying years physically, it was nice to see myself looking better, less tired and drawn. It was a great boost having this done. The team at CPS is exceptional, caring, passionate, and knowledgeable. I could not have asked for a better physician or staff.”

OK ladies: we all know we have it. It’s an undeniable part of being a woman and its name is cellulite (or more commonly referred to as “cottage cheese” (thighs- or insert other trouble area here). Did you know that cellulite is partially hormonally-driven? True. This is why men don’t seem to battle it. While there is no perfect way to get rid of cellulite permanently, there is a treatment that can give very nice results.

Endermologie^® uses “mechano-stimulation” to stimulate the cells and reactivate cellular activity (and it feels good too). After six, thirty five minute sessions, you will start to see stubborn fat reserved broken down, curves re-sculpted, and better skin tone. Want to know the specifics on how it works?

Endermologie cannot take the place of liposuction; they do two different things. Liposuction will permanently remove fat cells and change the shape and contour of a particular area. Endermologie helps with the texture and tone of the area. In fact, many of our patients use it as “icing on the cake” to enhance the results of their lipo.

Seeing if Endermologie is right for you is as easy as setting up a complimentary consultation with one of the skin health care specialists at CPS!  (877) 373-2764
