Dr. Mayhew is now proud to be offering NutraMetrix Custom Health Solutions

NutraMetrix is a wellness program comprised of isotonic vitamins and supplements that can be provided to you by Dr. Mayhew. Your health professional is the best resource to recommend what lifestyle choices and nutritional supplements are most suited for your needs. Millions of Americans seek nutritional advice and products from everyone BUT their own healthcare professionals. For example, vitamin store clerks – perhaps well intentioned – do not have the clinical expertise or the customer’s health history to accurately advise on nutritional supplementation. With a complete line of high-quality nutritional products available in Dr. Mayhew's office, you no longer face the confusing and often frustrating experience of selecting from thousands of nutritional products on the market today.

NutraMetrix products range from anti-aging supplements to supplements focused on heart health and diabetes prevention. NutraMetrix is taking a step toward the future of beauty products by offering custom supplement packages based on your unique genetic makeup.. Healthcare practitioners who wish to offer the program to their patients are given access to training and educational programs. There are consultants available to work with healthcare professionals as well. NutraMetrix tests all of its natural ingredients for pesticides and the fish oil is tested for heavy metals.

By identifying our own unique gene variations, we can customize lifestyle approaches and nutritional supplementation to maximize our genetic potential promoting optimal health never before achieved.

How Does Gene SNP Work?

Grow Longer, Thicker, Darker Lashes with LATISSE

You may have been hearing about Latisse lash growth treatment. You know - the commercial with gorgeous Brooke Shields giving personal testimony - which is all over tv these days. Well, Latisse is available only with a doctor prescription and you can get your prescription from Dr. Mayhew right now.

Latisse is a formula containing 0.03 percent bimatoprost ophthalmic solution that has been approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for treatment of thinning and narrowing eyelashes. Of course the effect also works on " normal" lashes. Everyone's lashes grow with this treatment.

Latisse is a once-daily prescription treatment applied to the base of the upper eyelashes with a sterile, single-use-per-eye disposable applicator. Latisse users can expect to experience longer, fuller and darker eyelashes in as little as eight weeks, with full results in 16 weeks. To maintain effect, continued treatment with Latisse is required. If use of Latisse is discontinued, eyelashes will gradually return to where they were prior to treatment over a period of weeks to months (average eyelash hair cycle).

In addition, Dr. Mayhew is experienced with two different types of lasers. These lasers include Intense Pulsed Lite (IPL) also known as Lite Energy Source and ERBIUM (ER) also known as Yag Laser and are described further below:

IPL therapy is a “quick-fix” procedure requiring virtually no downtime to rejuvenate the skin and restore a youthful glow. IPL stimulates new collagen to form in the skin thereby reducing fine lines, minimizing pore size and acne scars, and increasing skin elasticity. Intense pulsed light also diminishes flushing or redness of the face associated with Rosacea, reduces brown spots, erases broken capillaries, and smoothes roughly textured skin. The pulses of light produced by IPL equipment are very short in duration, so discomfort and damage to non-target tissues is minor. Most people who undergo IPL epilation only experience slight irritation similar to that of a minor sunburn. The Titan™ by Cutera™ is an example of such a laser. The Titan is a fantastic laser for rejuvenating and tightening. It sustains deep dermal heating which results in new collagen formation over time. There is no pain, no downtime. Results can be appreciated within 2 weeks! Best of all - you can have as many visits as you like for as much tightening as you want. The Titan can even be used on loose abdomen after child-bearing. Please learn more about Cutera™ by visiting their site at: www.cutera.com.

The high-powered YAG Laser produces energy in a wavelength that gently penetrates the skin, is readily absorbed by water and scatters the heat effects of the laser light. These properties enable Dr. Mayhew to remove thin layers of aged and sun-damaged skin tissue with exquisite precision while protecting healthy surrounding tissue. The YAG laser is commonly used for hair removal and leg vein removal such as Varicose & Spider Veins. These lasers are also used for the treatment of minor vascular defects such as spider veins on the face and skin resurfacing to improve moderate facial wrinkles, birthmarks, port wine stains, mild surface scars, or other splotchy skin discolorations. LaserGenesis and CoolGlide™ by Cutera™ are an examples of such lasers. Please learn more about Cutera™ by visiting their site at: www.cutera.com.
