Ladies.. What is the necessity you grab when you are getting 'glammed' up for a big night out?
Chances are, heels..'high' heels.
But how often to you groan when you feel the hurt they inflict on your feet..
Now, there's hope, and Roxanne Stein shows us what one South Florida doctor is doing to make being glamorous pain free!
They're a fashion fixture.
High, high heels are a 'must have' in any 'in' wardrobe.
"It sort of gives you the extra oomf and confidence to feel a 1000%, you really feel like a model, confident tall strong and sexy."
Valentina 'is' a model..her stilettos can be a second home to her feet.
"Sometimes it can be intense, in high heels walking on the catwalk."
"No matter where you are, high heels are the hot..the higher the hotter..they are sexy they are 'now'..but you'll never see me in these babies..why? They hurt."
"What happens is over time we lose the fat, we get fat atrophy and that causes damage to the metheads.."
That's the ball of the foot..and Dr. Cynthia Marzouka-Losito has an answer for Valentina and anyone else suffering from the pain that high heels cause..injections of the filler 'Sculptra'.
"Imagine walking on pillows."
That's just what Valentina needs.. "You can feel the methead."
"I'm spraying ethyl choride. It's a freezing spray.."
That's after the area is numbed with a local anesthetic..
Then, the injections.'
"What it does it increases volume to the bony area that way you aren't feeling the met heads."
"I'm just going to inject a little bit more.."
No pain..
"I'm not feeling any pain right now."
Valentina's feet go from 'flat':
"In the past 5 years, i've really felt it, consecutive days of wearing heels, hours..i got aches and pains in the ball of my feet."
To fabulous:
"I think it's really helped me in my profession but women love their high heels and don't want to give them up!! "
..and the injections don't change the size of your foot..so you won't need new shoes..
It costs about 8 hundred dollars a foot for the Sculptra injections..
It lasts from 8 months to a year.
