We’re donating 10% of our net proceeds to support Western North Carolina in the wake of Hurricane Helene. Thousands of people suffered unimaginable losses due to the recent disaster in the North Carolina mountains. They desperately need our help. We will be making bi-monthly contributions directly to Samaritans Purse until the end of the year. Every dollar you spend with us will help provide proof, water, clothing and other emergency aid to those in need.
We are committed to standing with our neighbors in this critical time. Each of our staff members share memories in the mountains and consider it a personal mission to support Western North Carolina as much as possible on their long road to recovery.
Many of us are taking this donation further by donating our tips and gratuity, as well as volunteering our team with Samaritan’s Purse. If you are looking for more ways to help, you can also donate directly through samaritanspurse.org

Fat grafting is a powerful new tool in the arsenal of plastic surgeons. Although the use of fat to fill soft tissue divots has been around since 1893, the clinical efficacy has been patchy. The modern version of fat grafting (where liposuction aspirate was use as graft material) did not appear until 1984 thanks to Illouz.

My Crusade Against The Diaper Butt
Parents are all familiar with the dreaded “Diaper Butt”. It’s not attractive sight. Imagine If you were and adult, and you spent thousands of dollars on Liposuction and fat frafting of the buttocks.
