Short Term Residential Treatment

Short term residential programs provide intensive and brief treatment based on a modified 12-step approach. Originally, addiction specialists designed these programs to treat alcoholics with addiction problems, but during the cocaine epidemic of the mid 1980s, many residential treatment programs began to address other types of substance abuse disorders. The original residential treatment model consisted of a three to six week hospital stay for inpatient treatment, followed by extended outpatient therapy and participation in a self help group, such as Alcoholics Anonymous. Following stays in residential treatment programs, individuals should remain engaged in outpatient treatment programs and or aftercare programs. These programs help to reduce the risk of relapse once a patient leaves the residential setting.

Skin Tag

A skin tag is a common, benign condition that consists of a bit of skin which projects from the surrounding skin and may appear attached to the skin. Skin tags can vary quite a bit in appearance. They may be smooth or irregular, flesh colored or more deeply pigmented, and either simply be raised above the surrounding skin or have a stalk so that the skin tag hangs from the skin. Americans spend billions of dollars each year on skin care products that promise to erase wrinkles, lighten age spots and eliminate itching, flaking or redness. Yet, the simplest and cheapest way to keep skin healthy and young looking is to stay out of the sun. Sunlight is a major cause of the skin changes we think of as aging--changes such as wrinkles, dryness and age spots. The skin does change as it ages. For example, with age, people sweat less, leading to increased skin dryness. As the skin ages, it becomes thinner and loses fat, so it looks less plump and smooth. Underlying structures--veins and bones in particular--become more prominent. Skin can take longer to heal when injured.
