You’ve heard the phrase “Look good, feel good” time and time again, and for many people, it rings true. Spending time on your appearance boosts your self-confidence, ensuring you are ready to tackle anything that comes your way. But whether you’re a busy professional or stay- at-home mom, finding time for yourself can be difficult. After all, who has time to put on makeup or style their hair with only 16 usable hours in a day? Many women are turning to semipermanent makeup solutions in order to feel their best every day without spending their precious time primping. Microblading Many women who struggle with sparse brows are trading in their brow pencils for a slightly more permanent solution: eyebrow “tattoos.” Unlike the Sharpie-esque eyebrow tattoos of the past, the microblading process involves a super fine pen — made up of a bundle of 12–15 needles — that makes dozens of precise, hairlike strokes on the superficial layer of the skin. The cuts are then flushed with pigment to create a fuller, realistic-looking brow that will last for up to three years. While this process may sound painful, the microblading technician will numb the area, and many women have described the feeling as similar to having your brows threaded. Just make sure to research microblading technicians in your area before booking an appointment; you should be able to find a portfolio that highlights their expertise. SEMIPERMANENT MAKEUP SOLUTIONS FOR THE BUSY WOMAN
Cost: Prices vary by location and artist expertise, but generally the range is $350–$1500. How Long It Will Last: 2–3 years Lash Lift and Tint Have you ever seen someone with impossibly long, dark eyelashes and felt a twinge of envy? You’re not alone. A lifted and fuller-looking lash line lights up your face and can make even the most tired eyes look fresh and vibrant. Unfortunately, putting on mascara or false lashes every day can be tedious. Many women are now looking to lash lifting and tinting to create that youthful effect while saving time. A lash lift — basically a perm for your eyelashes — uses a special solution to change the bonds of your eyelashes and keep them curled for several weeks. A lash tint is essentially an eyelash dye that darkens your lashes, giving you that mascara-like effect without having to glob on the stuff. Cost: Prices vary, but generally the range is around $100–$200 per treatment. How Long It Will Last: 8–12 weeks
WHEN IT COMES TO PLASTIC SURGERY: WE ARE PATIENTS’ AND DOCTORS’ FIRST CHOICE!
Here at Music City Plastic Surgery, we understand that selecting the right cosmetic surgeon can be a stressful and difficult decision. That is why Dr. Burgdorf has centered his practice on the importance of listening. A shared goal among our entire team is to ensure that every single patient’s concerns and desires are taken to heart and reflected in the results of their procedure. Ever since the very first day we opened our office doors, Dr. Burgdorf has trained us to treat the whole patient, not just their desired procedure. The decision to seek plastic, cosmetic, or reconstructive surgery is life-altering, and none of us treat that lightly. His understanding and caring nature has earned Dr. Burgdorf the coveted 2019 Patient’s Choice Award from The American Registry, an honor given to physicians who have received near- perfect scores as voted on by their patients.
This award demonstrates his close attention to his patients’ needs and the
overall success of his surgical technique.
In addition to his amazing reputation among patients, Dr. Burgdorf’s influence on other surgeons in the area continues to grow. In fact, he has been awarded the Doctors’ Choice Award for best plastic surgeon in Nashville several years in a row. He was also the recipient of the nationwide award as well! Regarding these recognitions, Dr. Burgdorf explains, “It’s been extremely humbling to go through this process. While the award is addressed to me, it’s a direct reflection of the hard work and dedication my team puts forth every day. We believe in the work we’re doing here, and these awards give us more opportunities to help others see our mission of making patients more confident in their own skin.”
