The Importance of Research Before Scheduling Your Laser Treatment – Part 2

Posted on December 20, 2018 by Dr. McWhirter

Why choose ReNue for laser treatments? I am pretty revved up on this topic and I wanted to continue my thoughts on things to ponder and questions to ask before you choose a laser skin rejuvenation clinic. Here is another question to ponder: Does the laser clinic have their own before and after photographs? Many laser clinics use stock photographs from the laser companies and I have even seen photographs in advertisements that were not even done with the laser they’re advertising.  At ReNue, we have company brochures with some stock photos from the laser company, but we also have … Continue Reading

Posted on December 6, 2018 by Dr. McWhirter

Why choose ReNue for laser treatments? We have a boatload of different lasers at all the ReNue locations which allows us to address every major skin care need.  One of the first lasers I purchased cost more than my first house.  No joke…It wasn’t a great house, but it wasn’t a dump either.  I have written blogs on many of the different lasers that we have and what they do, but I want to deviate from what lasers do and talk about how to choose a laser skin rejuvenation clinic.  In other words, why choose ReNue for laser treatments?

Posted on March 1, 2018 by Dr. McWhirter

First of all, I want to thank everyone who recently attended our sales event.  It was great to see so many of our loyal customers and so many clients that we hadn’t seen for a while.  It is always a proud time for me to see all the staff working hard and connecting with our customers to make sure we are on track with their skin rejuvenation goals.  I also get a chance to spend more time just socializing which is rare in my days but I value highly. One conversation struck out to me from a customer that has been … Continue Reading

The Problem with Politeness

Posted on February 6, 2018 by Dr. McWhirter

This might be a blog more about friends and difficult conversation than medical aesthetics, but here goes.  I was at a talk given by a famous childhood psychologist a few years back and I remember one comment he made that stuck with me.  It went something like this. “The down fall of Canadian parenting is rooted in traditional British politeness.” This was of course coming from an Italian psychologist!  His point was that we are often too polite for our own good.  Kids understand direct, “un-polite,” commands from parents that are not laced with too many pleases and thank yous.  … Continue Reading

Wanna Feel Less Tired?

Posted on January 16, 2018 by Dr. McWhirter

I don’t know about you, but one of the most annoying things a person can say to me is… ”you look tired.”  I might be having the best day ever and on top of the world and all of a sudden, I feel more tired.  My energy goes down and I want to go rest.  The thing is that a look of tiredness is not even your fault.  As humans we often perceive tiredness by a heaviness in the eyes and dark circles or bags under the eyes.   This tends to be genetic.  Of course, it is made worse by … Continue Reading
