PHILADELPHIA, June 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Traditionally, the accepted manner
in Philadelphia for treating skin care usually involves a topical ointment,
lasers or perhaps surgery for the more daring. The Institute for Advanced
Skin Care and Optimal Health provides biologic treatments to prevent the
signs of aging, according to Dr. Seema Patel, medical director of The
Institute.

Recent medical advances are looking more closely at the underlying
causes of illness and aging. "There is a growing acceptance that the
condition of your skin is to some degree a manifestation of the body's
internal environment," says Dr. Patel.
"I know that if I alter your diet, begin supplements and a structured
personal fitness regimen, the laser skin rejuvenation will have better
results and, most importantly, longer lasting results," she says.
Much of the scientific research in skincare is currently focused on
biologic treatment of the signs of aging. "Out with the skin cream and in
with gene therapy," Dr. Patel says.
"I observed that when people returned after a procedure they looked
better but did not feel any different and that's not achieving our ultimate
goal. We want each patient to look good and feel great," she continues.
Small changes in nutrition and exercise, stress management, and
aggressive treatment of medical conditions have a profound effect on
vitality, energy, concentration, and stamina.
At the Institute, Dr. Patel says most men initially seek treatment
because they want to remain physically and mentally competitive. Women
initially seek treatment to maintain a youthful appearance. As men regain
their physical edge, they become more concerned with their appearance.
Women quickly grasp the synergy of slowing the internal and external aging
process.
"One year ago my clients were predominately women for advanced skincare
procedures. Currently, my clientele is equally distributed between genders
and I use this combination strategy on everyone," Dr. Patel says.
The trend for cosmetic and biologic treatment is expected to continue
according to industry experts.
"It strikes me that all people have similar needs. We desire to look
good and feel great. We want to maintain our quality of life and see our
children and grandchildren grow up," says Dr. Patel.
