Ceres Wellness and Anti-aging offers several medical grade chemical peels.
Sun exposure, acne or simply getting older can leave you with an uneven, wrinkled, spotted or scarred skin tone. If you want to have smoother and younger skin, chemical peels may be the right solution. A chemical peel, also called chemexfoliation or derma peeling, is one of the least invasive ways to improve the appearance of your skin. Although chemical peels are used mostly on the face, they can also be used to improve the skin on your neck and hands.
You can improve:
  • Acne or acne scars

Wellness Pasadena, CA

Understanding the true meaning of wellness.

The dictionary defines “wellness” as the condition of good physical and mental health. Some people define it as the absence or opposite of illness. At Ceres, we define it as feeling and looking your best throughout your lifetime.

The two most important contributing factors for feeling and looking your best are maintaining a healthy weight and eating a proper human diet available through our hCG weight loss program. Your weight is critical to your overall health and ability to avoid heart diseases, diabetes and obesity. Obesity is now responsible for more premature deaths in America than smoking. And your weight has a great deal to do with your diet – what you eat.

With the right foods in the right amounts for your unique body type and nutritional needs, you can help keep your body at peak physical and mental functioning. How you look and how you feel are both directly related to meeting your body’s unique requirements.
Unfortunately, there is not a single mass-marketed or popular diet program that meets every body’s unique requirements – that’s why 95% of them fail.

HCG Weight Loss Pasadena, CA

HCG Weight Loss

HCG stands for “human Chorionic Gonadotropin”. hCG is naturally occurring in both men and women, but it is produced in excess by the placenta during pregnancy. During pregnancy, the substance almost completely controls the woman's metabolic functions.

HCG acts as a safety net for the body during pregnancy, if a pregnant woman’s caloric intake falls too low; the body senses an emergency and sends a message to the body to pull fat from the body’s reserve fat stores (adipose tissue). These reserve fat stores provide an excellent source of energy. hCG does not take fat from structural fat (necessary fat around our vital organs, our eyes, and around muscle tissue).

In order to get the body to sense that there is an “emergency” HCG dieters follow a very specific diet of 500 calories, and only certain food may be eaten that do not trigger the body to stop releasing fat. When followed properly, the body will release 2,500 calories into the bloodstream daily, in addition to the deficit in caloric intake (about 1,000 to 2,000 daily) one will have by eating only 500 calories, this translates to about 3,500 to 4,500 calories that will be burned daily by the body. Often individuals on the HCG protocol will lose up to 2 pounds per day. Most dieters feel full, satiated, and full of energy while on the protocol.
