Effortless Beauty: Permanent Cosmetics HHI offers life-changing options for enhancing your appearance

Effortless Beauty: Permanent Cosmetics HHI offers life-changing options for enhancing your appearance

Are your eyebrows missing in action? Are your lips disappearing into your face? Are you tired of hiding embarrassing scars? Maybe it’s time to consider a more permanent solution than traditional makeup, which is not only time-consuming to apply but often melts off when you walk out the door.

According to Sarah Rhoads, owner of Permanent Cosmetics HHI (PCHHI) people choose to get permanent cosmetics for a variety of reasons. For some, it’s about saving time. (Imagine rolling out of bed with your brows and/or lips already done for the day!) For others, it’s a matter of no longer being able to apply makeup skillfully due to vision changes or decreased dexterity. And for men and women alike, it is often about restoring their appearance after an accident, injury or surgery. Whatever the initial reason for their visit to PCHHI, clients are raving about the results.

Prevention is Key for This Eye Disease: Age-related macular degeneration the leading cause of vision loss in people age 60 and older

Wrinkles and arthritis are often the go-to concerns many people have as they grow older. However, irreversible blindness and visual impairment should also top the list. As many as 11 million people in the United States experience vision loss resulting from age-related macular degeneration (AMD), according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

People with AMD may develop blurred and distorted vision and may not recognize faces due to a developing blind spot in the middle of their vision. In the early stages of the disease, there are often no warning signs. And for some people, AMD can cause total vision loss.

Old School, New School at Bluffton Pharmacy

Old School, New School at Bluffton Pharmacy

In a world of corporate chains, Bluffton Pharmacy is an unapologetic throwback to a simpler time. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t on top of the latest treatments.

There’s a decidedly old-school vibe when you walk into Bluffton Pharmacy. It’s the kind of place where they greet you by name when you walk in the door, where they ask about your family. It’s the kind of community hub many people thought had been lost in the day of the mega chains. It’s the kind of place you walk into and wonder why we ever started going to corporate drug stores in the first place. Especially when you start looking at the price tags and notice this old-school service and charm comes cheaper than the sterile corporate assembly line.
