Three Months of Latisse with Tammy!

I have been using Latisse for 3 months now and I am amazed at how long my lashes have gotten.  I use Latisse at night and it is so easy,  I haven’t missed a night!  I have had so many people tell me how beautiful my lashes are.  When I put my mascara on, my lashes are so long and full and they stay that way all day.  It has really been fun to use Latisse and watch my lashes grow! 

Tammy is about to start her final Latisse kit in the Latisse Challenge, everyone at Atlanta Dermatology & Laser Surgery is excited to see Tammy's final results from her 4 month challenge with Latisse. Check out Tammy's Lash Success below:

2-Month Check-in with Cass!

When I went to Atlanta Dermatology for my 2-month follow up, I was completely in shock by how long my lashes have gotten! After I saw the before and after pictures from months 1 and 2 I could see the vast difference. But it's not just me seeing the difference, it's people everywhere. Of course my family but I thought they were just being nice and saying they looked longer and darker and lusher to make me feel great. In the check-out line at my local pharmacy this week when I was picking up some medicine, the lady in front of me kept starring at me and finally I asked if I could help her? She said, "Yes, actually you can! Your lashes are amazing. They're so long and dark (yes, those were her EXACT WORDS!) Then she asked what brand mascara I used. I told what brand. But then I preceded to tell her that I wasn't wearing any at the moment and she didn't believe me and then got uncomfortably close to my face :). Then I told her about Latisse and Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery and what a difference they had done for me and she should try them out too!

I am so excited about the next 2 months! I don't know how they can get any longer or thicker but if they do, which of course I wouldn't mind, it's going to look like I have falsies in! Which will be even more amazing and probably lead to more uncomfortable encounters at the pharmacy. 
 
Thanks so Dr. Cooper, Mackenzie and the entire staff of Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery! I feel so privileged to be able to do this and so very appreciative!

Why did you decide to become a PA?: Growing up I always had an interest in medicine and taking care of people. I did a lot of volunteering growing up, even in high school I was a candy striper so I had always known I wanted to do something where I could help other people and also be around my passion for the medical field.

Why did you decide to work in Dermatology?: During one of my PA school rotations I got to do a lot of work with skin cancer removal and reconstructive surgery; that helped to spark my interest in Dermatology. I also have always had an interest in cosmetic procedures as well, so Dermatology was perfect for merging my interests.

What has been your favorite part about working at Atlanta Dermatology & Laser Surgery?: Dr. Cooper enjoys staying current and relevant with new procedures both dermatological and cosmetic therefore, I have enjoyed learning the most up-to-date procedures that are out. The staff of Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery are also very friendly and always willing to help which has made my experience here extremely enjoyable.

What has surprised you about working in a Dermatology/Cosmetic office?: I have been really surprised by all the procedures that can be preformed to slow down the aging process and enhance natural beauty-- it's amazing to me just how much can be done with technology today.

What are your interests outside of the office?: My interests including staying active, I enjoy going to the gym, playing tennis and taking spin class. I enjoy staying current on medical trends by reading medical journals. I also love to travel, I would love to visit every country in the world and have already started my journey as I've visited: Italy, France, the Caribbean, Belgium and Austria, so far (I've got a lot of ground to cover).

Juliena is now taking appointments from both new and follow-up patients. To schedule an appointment please call (404) 296-8000.
