National Defective Medical Device Law Firm Files Mirena Lawsuits on Behalf of Two Women Allegedly Injured by Bayer Mirena IUD Products
New York, New York (PRWEB) May 31, 2012
Parker Waichman LLP, a national law firm dedicated to protecting the rights of victims injured by defective medical devices, has filed two lawsuits against Bayer Corporation, et al. on behalf of women allegedly injured by the Mirena intrauterine device (IUD). The first suit was filed on April 12th on behalf of an Ohio woman (Case No. MRS-L 924-12) and the second was filed on May 21st on behalf of an Oklahoma woman (Case No. MRS-L 1263-12). Both complaints were filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Morris County.
According to the complaints, both women underwent hysteroscopy to remove the Mirena IUD after the device was not found in its expected location. Both complaints allege severe and permanent physical injuries and substantial pain and suffering. The suits also allege that the Plaintiffs have acquired significant medical expenses, which will continue to accumulate in the future. Furthermore, the device has allegedly resulted in lost wages and impaired the ability to earn future wages.
About Mirena
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Mirena in 2000 as an intrauterine contraceptive. The T-shaped device releases a synthetic progestogen known as levonorgestrel into the uterus in order to prevent pregnancy, although Bayer admits that the exact mechanism remains unknown. In 2009, it was also approved to treat heavy menstrual bleeding in women who use IUDs. Mirena is recommended for women who have had at least one child, and is indicated for up to 5 years of use. The device is used in over 2 million women in the United States and more than 15 million women worldwide. [http://www.fda.gov/newsevents/newsroom/pressannouncements/2009/ucm184747.htm
According to the FDA, Mirena has been associated with serious complications such as ectopic pregnancy, intrauterine pregnancy, group A streptococcal sepsis, pelvic inflammatory disease, device embedment in the unterine wall, uterine wall and cervix perforation. Side effects also include bleeding and spotting at irregular intervals, headaches, ovarian cysts, vaginitis, pain during menstruation, pelvic pain and breast tenderness.
According to Parker Waichman, Bayer has history regarding the misrepresentation of Mirena. Up until 2009, Bayer marketed Mirena towards busy moms in the form of live presentations. The so-called Simple Style program, which was conducted through the social networking site Mom Central, claimed that Mirena would increase intimacy and help users look and feel great. In 2009, the Department of Health and Human Services Division of Drug Marketing, Advertising, and Communications (DDMAC) found that these claims were unsubstantiated, noting that the program failed to mention side effects such as weight gain, acne and breast or tenderness.

Medical Office Prescribes AVG Anti-Virus Software to Kill Computer Viruses
Fredericksburg, VA (PRWEB) March 2, 2010
State of the art Primary and Urgent Care clinic is getting a clean bill of health after installing anti-virus software from Walling Data.
Ghedak Ansari, IT manager of Primary and Urgent Care, knows how quickly viruses attack and the damage they cause. Every day the physician team there helps patients recover from illness and provide them with good health tips to prevent future viruses. They understand that prevention is critical.
As for Ansari, she too is all too familiar with another kind of virus – computer viruses. A few months ago, a computer virus got through her expensive anti-virus software and attacked several work stations. It was then that she knew she needed to throw out her old prescription and get a new anecdote.
A colleague recommended AVG Anti-virus to us and we used it to clean the infected work stations, she says.
We tried it all before Norton, Kaspersky, Lightspeed but they were expensive, too complex or simply didnt work, says Ansari. We couldnt afford to sacrifice our patients protection. AVG Anti-Virus did such a good job cleaning up the mess that we decided to make AVG Anti-Virus our permanent remedy for security.
Cure comes with outstanding support, no down time
Once Ansari decided to go with AVG, she went online to make the purchase. She came across Walling Data and decided to purchase AVG from them, mostly because of their competitive pricing.
Walling offered a good deal on AVG Anti-Virus and had great customer service over the phone, she recalls.
Walling Data is the longest-standing and highest-volume distributor of AVG Technologies solutions in North America. It offers all customers free, unlimited, U.S.-based pre- and post-sales support.
After trying competitors for one or two years each, Ansari was so impressed with AVG Anti-Virus, she signed on for three years and now uses this tough anti-virus software at both Primary and Urgent Care locations in Virginia.
Staying Healthy
Ever since weve installed AVG, our network has been healthy. It is simple, intuitive and most importantly, it keeps the viruses away.
Ansari also found some other benefits of using AVG.
AVG absolutely has a smaller footprint. With Lightspeed and Kaspersky, you knew when a scan was running because it essentially disabled the computer it was running on. With AVG, you don’t even know it’s there. It helps us focus on whats important our patients!

Local Internet Directories Help Medical Spas Get More Traffic to Their Website
(PRWEB) April 23, 2011
DeclareMedia has started a new online directory to help over 100 local businesses by finding more customers online. Medical spas can get a listing for free on their local directory. If businesses want to have a featured placement on the homepage for only $ 20.00 per month, space is limited so hurry they need to hurry and get the placement before it gets taken by their competitors.
Lately businesses are trying to figure out how to maximize marketing dollars and get ahead of their competition using the internet. DeclareMedia wants to make it easy for medical spas with their multiple directories so they can get more business. If anyone searches on Google for NYC Medical Spas, they have a directory for that. If someone wants to locate an Ohio Medical Spa, theyve also got a directory for that. They have hundreds of directories to help medical spas get more business on the internet.
Medical spas operate under the supervision of a medical doctor and are a mix between a medical clinic and a day spa. Many people use medical spas to treat conditions on the face and body like brown spots, redness and broken capillaries. Medical spas also use different kinds of treatments such as laser hair removal, intense pulsed light, microdermabrasion, photo facials, botox and skin rejuvenation. Medical spas also provide an overall wellness to their customers with nutritional counseling and naturopathic doctor consultations.
The solution is unique in a way that it is easy to use, and works well when it comes to search engine optimization or SEO, said Ben Martin, VP Product Development, DeclareMedia. A free listing only takes 2-3 minutes to create. A featured placement listing takes just a minute longer, and businesses gain more traffic and lead flow for their medical spa due to the prominent placement on the homepage of the directory. They have figured out how to get good rankings for these directories on search engines, which ends up helping companies with their SEO efforts.
DeclareMedia plans to get more medical spa directories in the next few weeks.
About DeclareMedia: DeclareMedia manages thousands of multiple web directories covering hundreds of different business categories. Now there is an easier way for both businesses and customers to find what they are both looking for. They have made it easier and better for businesses to list their website and more convenient for customers to find what they are searching for. Since the directories rank well in search engines, they help local businesses take advantage of the internet to reach customers in their local area. DeclareMedia is located in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Cure the Angry Bird Look, Shaft Medical San Diego Announces The Exclusive Botox and Radio Frequency No Frown Treatment For Men
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) May 17, 2012
Shaft Medical San Diego, the areas leading aesthetic medicine practice providing the full range of advanced cosmetic procedures, now offers the Botox No Frown San Diego procedure for men.
Botox California and Palm Springs is now increasingly being used by men, even those not currently running for President.
The number of men in the U.S. who paid to get a series of tiny injections in their face has tripled in the last five years to over 300,000, or about 7% of the total Botoxed population. And, despite the recession, those numbers aren’t going down. One of the many things the laid-off cannot afford is to look their age.
Men usually get Botox San Diego to remove those two vertical lines between their eyebrows that make them look angry and confused. They also use the product to smooth out the horizontal creases in their foreheads, though, unlike women, they don’t tend to worry about crow’s feet. Men do, however, fret a lot more about the pain. “They get so jacked up worrying that it will hurt,” says Botox enthusiast and nine-time Olympic gold medalist Mark Spitz. “Maybe that’s why women have babies and we don’t.”
When 1970s Olympic heroes–and mustachioed ones at that–get work done, it would seem to mark social acceptability among guys. Spitz, though, is a spokesman for Allergan, the company that makes Botox and markets directly to men via its website. Sure, Spitz first considered getting the world’s most common cosmetic procedure after a friend, former Olympic gymnast Nadia Comaneci, told him that the wrinkles between his eyes made him look old and overly serious, but he got a whole lot more interested when Allergan started paying him.
Who, then, are the other 299,999 guys getting Botox? And are any of them not famous or running for some high profile office or another?
Lets talk about the typical Botox California client, well call him Joe the Teacher (he moved some time ago from his previous gig as a plumber). Joe is a high school teacher, somewhere in his 40s (he isnt saying exactly), and lives in Southern California.
Joes reason for getting Botox becomes obvious when in 7-10 days the treatment Botox erases the furrowed brow lines in addition to the “11s” between the eyebrows.
When combined with the Alma Accent XL laser, even mens hard to treat wrinkles will fade away.
The Alma Accent XL is a unique, virtually painless, radio frequency (RF) device FDA-approved for the non-invasive treatment of wrinkles, skin tightening, and reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
The Accent XL combines two proprietary RF mode handpieces, BiPolar and UniPolar, that provide therapeutic heat at different tissue depths within the body. The BiPolar handpiece creates local, superficial dermal heating on delicate areas, such as the face. The UniPolar handpiece provides deep dermal and subdermal heating of larger areas.
For both the superficial and deep RF modes, Almas exclusive IN-Motion Technology represents a breakthrough in patient comfort, speed of procedures and consistent clinical results. By providing a gradual thermal rise to the target therapeutic temperature, the risk of patient injury or discomfort is dramatically reduced.

Cure the Tummy Bulge, Shaft Medical San Diego Announces the Availability of Advanced Liposuction Body Contouring to Eliminate Exercise Resistant Abdominal Fat
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) May 16, 2012
Shaft Medical San Diego, the areas leading aesthetic medicine practice providing the full range of advanced cosmetic procedures, now offers the PowerX and Lipotherme Liposuction San Diego procedure for managing hard to treat abdominal fat.
Those collections of fat on the abdomen can be resistant to even the best diet and exercise regimen. A recent survey showed that three out of four of people want to treat their excess abdominal fat deposits.
Its a truly sobering time in anybodys life when one day a person looks down and sees that dreaded tummy bulge! For many women, this is the moment that the California and Palm Springs liposuction procedure starts to sound like a wonderful idea.
Even with diet and exercise, its possible to end up with areas of fat that just dont seem to shift, such as back fat, love handles, bingo wings, and of course, the tummy area. Tummy fat can now be permanently eliminated with a relatively simple outpatient liposuction San Diego California procedure.
Treatment with the PowerX and Lipotherme San Diego liposuction procedure involves permanent removal of fat cells resulting in greater definition and skin tightness. This technique reduces or eliminates the unsightly bulges associated with excess tummy area fat.
Produced by Sound Surgical, the recently FDA-approved PowerX Lipo System is an innovative power-assisted liposuction device that makes it easier for the cosmetic surgeon to remove fat. The cannula rotates, allowing fat to be removed quicker, more efficiently, and with less effort. It is also very quiet, unlike other mechanical liposuction devices.
Lipotherme is a new FDA-approved 980 nm wavelength laser lipolysis technology developed in France. Using a small laser housed in a specially designed and patented cannula, fatty deposits below the skin are disrupted with heat, facilitating their removal and the look and contour you desire. Laser lipolysis with Lipotherme is often used in areas where traditional liposuction would not be successful and in parts of the body where diet and exercise is not able to reduce fatty deposits.
Now, with PowerX and Lipotherme, there are new and effective options in liposuction technology.
The PowerX technique substantially reduces surgical time as compared to traditional liposuction. Combining a unique rotational handpiece with multiple power settings, PowerX enables more precise body sculpting and contouring. Capable of superficial work to large volume fat removal, the PowerX allows cosmetic surgeons more control by reducing aspiration time and physician fatigue.
PowerX offers physicians and patients the ability to custom-tailor body contouring treatment. PowerX can be used alone or in combination with other liposuction technologies such as the Lipotherme laser lipolysis system.
Lipotherme laser liposuction offers smooth and consistent contouring results, allowing cosmetic surgeons to target the smallest and most stubborn pockets of fat. Lipotherme is the perfect solution for small, precise areas like the face, neck, back, parts of the abdomen and arms. This technique reduces bruising and bleeding, and only a local anesthetic is needed which reduces both cost and risk to the patient.

Avalon Laser Provides San Diego with Premiere Laser Hair Removal and Medical Spa Procedures
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) August 30, 2010
Since opening its doors, Avalon Laser has aimed to provide the very best Laser Hair Removal and Medical Spa Services throughout San Diego and the surrounding areas.
From the beginning, the Company combined the best and most experienced staff, together with the best equipment on the market to become a premiere Medical Spa. The objective was to help clients of all ages and backgrounds to look and feel their best.
Their most popular service, laser hair removal, offers numerous advantages. Both men and women often find the daily or monthly routine of shaving or waxing to be tedious. One client describes it this way: “It was difficult to consistently shave. When I added up the time and cost of shaving and waxing, laser hair removal became an obvious choice.” There are also body areas that are especially sensitive to the usual methods of hair removal, such as on the lip or bikini area, where laser hair removal can be especially effective or where shaving (such as on the chin or lip for women) can be undesirable.
Acne treatment is another area where laser technology offers solutions. For many teens and adults, acne can create significant social impediments. Billions of dollars are spent each year on various remedies, with inconsistent results. Although some of these remedies can be effective, there are also numerous downsides: topical creams can irritate the skin and even create uneven pigmentation. With more intensive regimens, such as Retin-A or Accutane, there is the added concern regarding pregnancy in women and the risk of birth defects in the fetus, which mandate frequent doctor checkups and the addition of birth control as precautions.
Laser Acne treatment is a novel and safe alternative that can provide lasting relief from acne, and which often works much faster. The results can be superior to those achieved through other methods and there are additional benefits for those who have suffered from chronic acne. Avalon Laser has created Laser Acne Scar Reduction which is a unique therapy designed to treat scars from previous acne outbreaks. By utilizing the latest laser technology, Acne Scar Reduction helps the body generate additional collagen to “fill in” and replenish the cavitations on the skin created through inflammation and from picking at acne pustules.
Avalon Laser also offers therapies for older adults. As we age, the skin loses elasticity and generates wrinkles through loss of collagen as well as through hyperactive muscles. The effects of sun damage and uneven pigmentation generated through years of exposure to the sun and elements all combine to prematurely age the skin. For this reason, Avalon Laser provides a variety of treatments to combat the effects of age on the skin. Treatments such as Skin Blemish Therapy target sun damage as well as freckles, spider veins, age spots and large pores which can become more noticeable over time. Wrinkle reduction therapies such as Laser Skin Tightening, Botox and dermal fillers such as Juvederm complement these treatments with a targeted approach.
Clients also find helpful benefits from therapies such as Cellulite Treatment, Stretch Mark Reduction and Gynecomastia Reduction. These therapies are aimed for those active individuals who have difficulty losing the last few inches of extra unwanted body fat. The results can be dramatic and long-lasting, especially for those who adhere to a healthful regiment of diet and exercise.
Dr. Reza Tirgari, the Medical Director of Avalon Laser, describes the company this way: “We combined the best and most highly trained staff, with the best equipment, within some of the most elegant Salons and Spas in San Diego. Our goal was to provide effective and affordable services to better serve the entire San Diego community”.
