Beverly Hills Dr. Ehsan Ali, M.D., a primary care physician who also offers concierge home services, is well-known, highly respected and sought after by many including celebrities Liam Hemsworth, Emma Stone and Bella Thorne for his anti-aging care.

Now that beach season is here, many are scrambling to look our best in the warm weather, whether that be by spending a few extra hours toning and firming or pampering our skin to achieve the ever-desired summer glow.

Dr. Ali provides sharing his top five last-minute methods to get in ideal summer shape fast:

1.     CoolSculpting

Like liposuction but non-invasive/non-surgical, CoolSculpting is a pain-free way to efficiently get rid of unwanted fat. CoolSculpting’s reliable technology targets stubborn fat to freeze and kill the cells. During the weeks following treatment, your body naturally eliminates the cells, providing a long-term remedy for unwanted fat storages. Contact a licensed clinician, like Dr. Ehsan Ali, for a consultation.

2.     Medical Weight Loss Plan

For the most personalized, holistic treatment for weight loss, experienced doctors can work with you to customize a plan to reach your goals. Whether with or without prescription medicine, your doctor can help you to figure out the most appropriate diet/exercise/treatment plan that will target your specific needs to get you in your best shape possible.

3.     Ketogenic Diet

The ketogenic diet is sweeping the nation as one of the fastest and most effective diets to be used for weight loss. The ketogenic diet is unique in that it does not only require very low dietary carbohydrate intake, but it also requires a very high consumption of dietaryfat (and moderate protein). With this general macronutrient ratio, your body switches from using glucose (sugar) as fuel to using fat for energy, which ultimately leads to rapid weight loss and body fat reduction... without you having to count calories! Dr. Ali recommends consulting your doctor while on this diet.

4.     Microneedling for the Face or Body

Microneedling is a procedure that involves creating a bunch of punctures all over the top layer of your skin in order to boost collagen production. Therefore, microneedling can work wonders for fine lines, sun damage, wrinkles, acne scars/hyperpigmentation, overall skin texture, and more. It is not a painful procedure, it is very fast, and it can be done anywhere on the body. While it is recommended to visit a doctor to discuss this treatment, those who are interested may also consider at-home microneedling as well.

5.     PRP Treatments                 

PRP treatment, or plasma rich platelets injection therapy, is another very effective way to treat lackluster skin. With PRP, the patient’s own blood is drawn and then re-injected in the target areas by the doctor. A step up from microneedling, the plasma helps even more to stimulate the formation of collagen. This makes all skin types improve greatly and glow.
