Holiday Gifts from my person for YOU

Posted in Uncategorized at 11:33 am by Oscar

Hi — Oscar here.

Yep, it’s true.  Until the end of the year my person (the doctor) is giving away (at no cost to you) BIG Gift Cards for lots of procedures.

Use ‘em yourself … or as gifts.  No — you don’t have to buy them — they’re for you as Gifts ’cause you’re so cool and loyal.

Hard to turn down a gift now, isn’t it?

You get to receive … and give.  Doesn’t get any better than that.

Later,

Oscar

PS: this is (for now) just for our “blog watchers” and email subscribers.  Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy.  Sorta like me. :)

The Day the Phones Went Down

Posted in Uncategorized at 5:12 am by Oscar

Hi — Oscar here,

It’s true — for an hour or two last week the phone lines dropped off — one by one — until the Center for Aesthetics was dead in the water.  

Lavonne even called her number using her cellphone and got the message, “That number is no longer in service.”  Now, how scary is that?

Frantic calls to Verizon by Debbie (the office manager) found out the reason.  Verizon had been sending our bills to an ancient Post Office Box (no longer in use) … get this … for a year!  They even sent payment reminders to this address (with bounced mail I might add) thinking somehow we could intuit they were trying to contact us.

But from a cat’s perspective — and we think logically — no food in bowl … go yawn mightily in my person’s face (the doctor) so he fills my bowl.  Simple, and effective.

But do you think Verizon — a PHONE COMPANY — would use (god forbid) a PHONE — to find out why they weren’t being paid?  Of course not.  In the corporate world that would be too simple, too logical, too likely to produce results.

Should my person’s bookkeeper have picked this up?  Yep — but she didn’t.

Anyway — it was fixed by wire transfer of the money due … and my person will watch like a hawk (that expression bothers me a little — scary birds) to see if the morons at Verizon gets the address right from now on.

And all the phone lines are alive and kicking once again.

As my buddy Forest Gump once said, “Litter box happens!” (Come on — this is a family blog!)

So the lesson is: never trust corporate … and if you want something done right — do it yourself.

That’s how I operate. :)

Happy Birthday!!!!

Posted in Uncategorized at 6:36 am by Oscar

Yep — it’s someone’s birthday (and a BIG one) for someone in my person’s (the doctor) office.

Okay — give it up for Lavonne!  Lavonne’s the Director of the Center for Aesthetics and one of the nicest persons you’ll ever meet.  

And it’s her birthday.

Now in cat years she’s … no, I just won’t go there or there’ll be real trouble.

Most guess her in her mid 20’s.  Good for her!

Best I can do for the curious is she makes her age LOOK GOOD!

All my fans should send her a note or heck — call — and wish her well.

The address is Lavonne G. Gifford, LE  1003 S. Broad St., Lansdale, PA 19446.  The phone: 215-361-5030.

Tell her Oscar sent you. :)

Later,

As Promised … Cat Yoga

Posted in Uncategorized at 9:59 am by Oscar

The Perfect Oval

The Perfect Oval

In a previous blog I alluded to the benefits of Yoga — even for me, a cat.
Well here I am in a now famous new Yoga pose called “The Perfect Oval”.

Betcha humans can’t do this one.

Now, if you want the real scoop on benefits of personal training and Yoga as part of a holistic approach to health for your body (including your skin), mind, and spirit (think wonderful stress reduction) then give the Center a call and see Lavonne G. Gifford, LE — the Director.

Lavonne can tie it all together for you — tell you how the puzzle pieces of a personal fitness program (including Yoga) AND appropriate skin care all fit together for a healthier, happier, and beautiful you.

Then go try “The Perfect Oval” …. if you dare. :)

What if you don’t?

Posted in Uncategorized at 5:24 am by Oscar

Hi — it’s Oscar again,
Just had a nice summer doing what I do best — eating, sleeping, and practicing a little “Cat Yoga.” Think I’m kidding? One of the positions is called “The Perfect Oval.” I’ll get my person (the doctor) to get a photo of me just to show you what it looks like. I doubt any human can do it.

Speaking of doubts … got to thinking about September and the perfect opportunity you have to get your self esteem back after staring at your skin and body all summer. What?! Yeah — I gotta lot of nerve — but I don’t have a dog in this fight and besides … my body is perfect.

Back to September — plenty enough time to do something really special for yourself — just in time for the Holidays!

Deciding to have a cosmetic procedure done isn’t supposed to be a gut wrenching decision you know — you want it — so get it.
(Rationalize later all the good reasons why.)

But what if you don’t? Here’s the list:

- You get to keep your leg veins. That way you get to look like Mom.

- Your brown spots, wrinkles, skin sagging … all stay.

- Looking older than your years? Heck — lotsa people do. Even though it’s easy (according to my person, the doctor) to really knock the years off without downtime of significance — you can stay that way.

- The fat roll? Yours to keep. (Just to be kind — I keep mine.)

- Hairy stuff where you don’t want it? My advice — stay hairy — looks good on me and I really don’t know what all the fuss is about. And I haven’t a clue what razor bumps are.

My point is this: if you do nothing about it now then nothing changes!

“Brutal am I” says my friend Yoda … but it’s the truth — the ugly, grim, … truth.

Every spring my person is asked to perform miracles when many of these procedures are done in a series — and it’s too late.

So … starting now not only gets you a rockin’ bod by Holiday time … but also messes with your New Year’s Resolutions — you won’t NEED any! :)

Okay — I’ve been a little hard on you by giving you graphic examples of doing nothing. But that’s my job. Bad cop/good cop. Read my person’s blog if you want to feel all warm and fuzzy.

Like me.

Happy fall and get crackin’ on everything that really bugs you and is holding you back!

Later,
Oscar

Back From Vacation

Posted in Uncategorized at 5:50 am by Oscar

What’s a cat to do?  I’ve been really busy — patrolling, watching out for my person, the doctor, and the ever present job of finding sunbeams to sleep in.

Yesterday geese landed on our pond and needed monitoring.

Then, I remembered my loyal readers and vowed to write more.  Got to thinking as I watched birds flocking — wait a minute … they’re flocking!  That can mean only one thing — sorry about this — but fall is just weeks away.

Look on the bright side — fall is just darn gorgeous with cooler weather, nifty clothing to keep the chill off (I’m just sayin’ ’cause I wear a coat year ’round) and promise of THE HOLIDAYS.

BTW, did you like how you looked this summer? 

As I see it, you have the perfect opportunity right now (well, in September … or now if you’ve “had it” already) to change what you don’t like into a radiant new you — in time for next summer.

Be svelte like me. :)

Think of it as New Year’s Resolutions come early.  And you’ll have plenty of time to take care of all of your “issues”.

Then, come next summer you’ll have a rockin’ new bod that’ll turn heads.

Okay — gotta go help my person get ready for work — says he’s doing another SmartLipo — now so popular his schedule’s really full.  Glad he likes lasering and sucking fat – making people nice ‘n trim again.

In fact, come to think of it — if you want in on this you’d better get on his schedule soon.

The Holidays are coming … if you know what I mean.

Gotta look your best. :)

Later,

Oscar

Summer Blow Out Specials

Posted in Uncategorized at 3:01 pm by Oscar

Hi folks … Oscar here.  Somehow this blog got toasted so here it is again.

My person (the doctor) the-one-who-fills-my-bowl has arguably lost it.  But — says he has a good reason for the specials going on right now at his office.

He wants people to know it’s perfectly okay to have Fraxel and SmartLipo, the fillers and Botox, Laser Hair Removal … done in the summer!

So, he’s making it worth your while.  Just to prove that point.

Here’s the deal:

First — Fraxel and Laser Hair Removal series have undergone a massive price roll-back for the summer. 

JUMP on that like I would a mouse.  (I’m a cat — deal — besides, mice are delicious.)

AND — if you want a FREE Fraxel (has a nice ring, doesn’t it?) then just invest in any area of SmartLipo and you’ll get one — just because. :)

This just in: the first 10 people doing the SmartLipo - Free Fraxel thing in each of June, July, and August also can have one session of all-you-need Botox.

Man — he’s giving away the store.

Then to top it off … he’s lowered the cost for those of you needing multiple syringes of filler (Juvederm Ultra and Restylane).

Lavonne — his Director — already blogged about the product sale.

Want an unusual image?  Picture the doctor in front of his bathroom mirror putting glop on his face.  I see it every morning ’cause I’m sitting in the other sink watching him.

Now, if a guy can be persuaded to do this — the stuff must work pretty well.

And the stuff’s on sale!!  Grab all you can while he’s in this mood. :)

Anything else?  Here’s what you do — send me comments on what you want — doesn’t matter — I’ve got thick skin — kinda’ furry — but I’ll listen to anything.

I’ve also got the doctors ear … he listens to me.

Later ladies and dudes,

Oscar

I’m Baaack!

Posted in Uncategorized at 4:56 am by Oscar

Oscar here,

Been away on a hiatus — had to get used to new digs.  My person (the doctor) and I moved to a very cool new place … lots of windows for me to guard the fortress from.

I haven’t forgotten my loyal readers though — love to keep in touch.

Met a new cat online the other day — okay so I’m neutered — get used to it — still like new friends.

Her name is Addy (not a bad looking kitty if I do say so myself) and her person is Amy at New Beauty magazine.  

My person and his practice are going to be featured in New Beauty in July. 

Now is that cool or what?

Stay tuned for more … gotta go patrol.

Botox Spring Fling

Posted in Uncategorized at 6:21 am by Oscar

Oscar here!

Okay — don’t usually do this — but my person, Dr. Fairfield asked me to let you in on an upcoming event.  I’ll do my best.

It’s all about finding more people who are just like his regular clients.  He likes them so much he wants more just like them!

I tell it like it is!

Okay — here’s the scoop.  I have one you know — right near my litter box.  Oops — getting off track.

On Wednesday, April 30 from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM the Center for Aesthetics will close for a special event called the Botox Spring Fling.  (No — they’re not going to fling Botox!)

YOU will have the chance to schedule an appointment and get Botox — any and all sites for … 10% OFF.  It get’s better (and here’s where friends come in.)

IF you bring one friend who’s new to the practice — both of you get your Botox for … 15% OFF.  Yeah … it gets even better ….

IF you bring two or more friends you all get Botox for … a whopping 25% OFF.

How ’bout them apples?

Oh — almost forgot.  Everyone also gets a Gift Certificate for $100 OFF Juvederm Ultra filler for use later.  Don’t want or need it?  Give it to another friend as a gift from you!

Here’s my favorite part.

They’re serving FOOD.  And wine and other cool drinks.  Don’t know what they are – water’s fine by me — but you know humans.

Anybody want in on this?  It’s by appointment!  And they’re filling up fast.

If you snooze you lose.  Mmmm … snooze … I feel one coming on.

Last point: call 215-361-5030 and tell ‘em Oscar said you and your 3 friends (just made that up — but why not) want to come and snag your appointment right now.

Wrinkle free for the upcoming summer at a bangin’ price.

Doesn’t get any better than this.

Unless you like cat food … wonder what’s in my bowl?

Later ladies,

Oscar

Some Days …

Posted in Uncategorized at 5:34 am by Oscar

My person, the doctor, learned a valuable lesson this morning.

Never work with super glue, wipe up the excess with kleenex, then absentmindedly blow your nose with the same kleenex.

Even I know that — and I’m a cat!

Hope he doesn’t go to the office like that — looks like a harbor seal, BIG whiskers and all.

Actually, he’s really smart … really … no really. :)

Oscar
