BEAUTY Miami Beach Plastic Surgery Center and MedSpa 1674 Meridian Ave. Suite 204, Miami Beach (305) 531-9800 • tachmesmd.com Words by Martin Haro Normally, I'd tell you to run if someone comes at ya with something sharp – I did see Saw, after all – but when the person wielding a shiny scalpel is one of Dr. Leonard Tachmes' team members, I say trust them, lay back, and relax. That's 'cause I know what's coming is a session of dermaplaning, one of the many beauty treatments you now can get at the Miami Beach Plastic Surgery Center and MedSpa. The board- certified surgeon opened the center earlier this year, and believe me when I say you want to go to there. The staff is friendly and welcoming, the aestheticians are professional, and the vibe is made of pure relaxation (thanks to a jazzy, standard-y soundtrack chosen by Tachmes himself – how cool is that?). It's the perfect place to get your beautification on for sure. A really great treatment to get just in time for the holidays, ladies and gents, is the 90-minute rejuvenating facial 120. It's an enhancement akin to a facelift that will help you put your best face forward this season without going under the knife. The treatment uses a safe infrared light that heats up the dermis well under the skin's surface, thus promoting collagen production. Once you're done your skin will look smoother and tauter. As for my by-appointment-only dermaplaning session – I have never felt better having someone peel a layer of skin off my face (I slept through it, was so not a thing, y' know).
