Miami-Dade Commissioner Kionne L. McGhee Rallies Floridians to Boost Voting Participation for Increased Federal Resource |
Miami-Dade Commissioner Kionne L. McGhee, District 9, is calling on all eligible Floridians to register to vote and participate in the upcoming election as part of a strategic effort to secure vital federal resources for the state. The federal government allocates many of its resources based on population participation numbers, making it crucial for Florida to demonstrate strong civic engagement through voting. Florida is home to over 22 million residents, with approximately 14 million eligible voters. However, current data shows that around 6.7 million registered Floridians voters did not vote, leaving a significant gap that could hinder the state’s ability to secure the resources necessary for infrastructure, education, healthcare, and disaster...

Skin Deep: Expert Tips on Aging Gracefully |
At our practice, we often receive inquiries from patients seeking clarity on their specific conditions and concerns related to plastic surgery. Recently, a common question was raised, which I’d like to address for anyone considering nasolabial fold fillers. “I consulted with a doctor who suggested I only fill in the nasolabial folds with fillers. I’m unsure if this is the best approach.

When properly administered, they can smooth these lines and help create a more youthful appearance. However, there are several factors to consider before... Read More |
