Wanted: Arm reduction program
October 19, 2005 | 12:00am
Hi Lucy!
I really want to wear spaghetti strap blouses (like the one youre wearing on the cover of Previews August issue), but the problem is I have big arms. I really want to make my arms smaller. I heard theres a series of treatments to make the arms slender without having to undergo liposuction. But then, Im not sure if this is effective. Do you know about this and do you have any idea how much it might cost? Anna
Im wondering what exactly you mean when you say you have big arms. Is your bone structure heavy or are your arms really big because of excess weight? If it is the latter, your best bet really would be exercise (especially because you explicitly mentioned that liposuction is not an option). There is a treatment called Lipo Light (available at the Belo Medical Group; call its main clinic in Makati at 817-7178 or 817-9283), a series of which will make your arms firmer. However, it will not achieve what liposuction will, in terms of reduction in size. It would be best if you have your problem area assessed professionally by a medical expert. I wish you the best. Lucy
Dear Tingting,
I admire girls who have long, shiny black hair. Ive always wanted to have that kind of hair, but mine is so dry. Ive tried many products, including coconut oil, but to no avail. I dont have the money to go to the salon regularly. Ms. Problematic
I still believe soaking hair in coconut oil for 30 minutes once or twice daily works. Otherwise, buy hot oil treatment creams at drug and beauty stores. Tingting
Hello There, Mary!
I have always been curious about cleansing diets and would like to try one but dont know how to go about it. Im 45 years old, but I look younger than my age. However, these past years, Im beginning to notice some signs of aging, like my neck is getting darker. Also, my pores have always been big. Can I still do something about this? LJ
There are many diets out there; youll probably find one that will suit you. As for your dark neck, perhaps youre not putting makeup on your neck. Why dont you mix some whitening cream with your night cream? This will lighten the skintone of your neck. Mary
