A Personal Note from Dr. Nichols

Bonjourno!

That’s about the extent of the Italian I picked up on my recent trip to Italy. My husband, friends and I took a week in Tuscany, Florence and Rome. The wine tours, the food, the shopping… it was a wonderful trip that I won’t forget!

Back at the office, my team and I had a great time last Sunday at a New York City Football Club game (that’s NYC’s professional soccer team). My husband’s firm, Cabanillas and Associates, hosted my staff and his employees at one of their sponsored suites. It was a beautiful sunny day so the staff and I used our ColoreScience Unforgettable SPF 30 Mineral Brush to reapply our sunscreen without messing up our makeup. It’s a must for the summer season, so you should definitely check it out on our shop page! (And P.S It’s also our Product of the Month!)

  

Our soon-to-be NicholsMD location is finishing up construction! This means, we’re just a few weeks away from move-in day! I’m so excited for you to see the bigger and brighter Boutique.

I’m looking forward to having you in the boutique to help you feel beautiful, confident and ready to live your best life today and every day! 

Best,
Dr. Nichols
 
Dr. Nichols Reports on the Zika Virus

Dr. Nichols appeared on News12 Connecticut recently and discussed the use of insect repellant in light of the recent epidermic of the Zika virus. The bottom line: DEET is the most effective ingredient in insect repellants and are a must-use this summer to prevent Zika and other mosquito-born illnesses.

Dr. Nichols Shares Safe Ways to Apply Bug Repellent 

  • The American Academy of Pediatrics has certified that DEET in insect repellant is safe to use in children 6-months old and older. 
  • Do not spray aerosol or pump products in enclosed areas.
  • Do not spray aerosol or pump products directly to your face. Spray your hands and then rub them carefully over the face, avoiding eyes and mouth.
  • Wash off repellant after returning indoors.
  • Do not apply DEET near cuts or open wounds. 
  • You can apply DEET and sunscreen together. However, it is recommended that you apply the sunscreen first.

Ask the Aesthetician
Question: “What is a Microneedling Treatment? Does it hurt? What can I expect?”

Answer: PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. The platelets in our blood are cells designed to heal injuries and are filled with our own natural growth factors. This makes them exponentially more effective than synthetic growth factors in rejuvenating our skin and hair follicles! 

Here’s how the procedure goes: a topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area. The patient’s blood is drawn, spun, and the PRP is separated and prepared for use. The numbing cream is removed. The area is then treated with passes of micro-needling with PRP. Because of the numbing cream, the procedure just feels like a vibrating sensation. 

After the procedure, the patient will experience some redness that subsides in 3 to 5 days. Treatments are spaced 3-4 weeks apart with 3 or 6 treatments needed, depending upon what is being treated. Visible changes will develop over the course of several weeks.
