Ideal Image, a national leader in laser hair removal focused exclusively on laser hair removal services, is pleased to announce the opening of its two newest laser hair removal centers in the Cincinnati area in West Chester, OH and Bellevue, KY. These additional two locations are a direct result of the increased demand for Ideal Image’s services, as well as the company’s ambitious business model, which has helped them to become the fastest-growing laser hair removal provider in the nation with 78 locations in 24 states – with plans for continued expansion.

“At Ideal Image, we are passionate about two things – offering the very latest advancements in laser hair removal, and providing great customer service,” said Dr. Joseph Acebal, Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “When someone walks through the doors of an Ideal Image location, our top priority is to make sure we do everything possible to make sure we understand the needs of the customer, what they hope to achieve, and how we can make them more comfortable.”

From its humble beginnings with a single location in Tampa, Florida, in 2001, Ideal Image has treated every customer with this same philosophy, which helps account for the stunning success the company has experienced in such a short time period. As they continue to revolutionize the laser hair removal industry, this dedication to customer service will continue to be the company’s foundation as they expand and introduce the brand to new markets.

In addition to outstanding customer service, the professionals at Ideal Image Laser Hair Removal have set themselves apart in the field of research, implementation and promoting the leading-edge practices in full body laser hair removal. Ideal Image proudly offers the highest quality laser hair removal services for bikini, facial, body, underarm and leg hair laser removal with treatments administered by a degreed and licensed medical team that includes registered nurses, physician’s assistants, and nurse practitioners.

“At Ideal Image, our motto is “Change Your Life Forever” and our focus is on giving our guests access to becoming their personal best,” added Dr. Richard Mikles, Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “We do this by offering state-of-the-art laser hair removal techniques, using the latest equipment which promotes safety, privacy, and comfort for every guest.”

With today’s laser hair removal technologies, guests can quickly achieve the look they want. In addition to the confidence that comes with looking and feeling great about themselves, they also save time and money by eliminating the burden of shaving and waxing every day. In today’s pressed-for-time society, this can add up to one hour per week or more, which guests can now spend on the activities and relationships that matter most in their lives.

“At Ideal Image, we know from personal experience that when you look good, you also feel good,” said Misty Spencer, Regional Director of Corporate Centers. “We are proud to make Cincinnati, OH the home of our two newest laser hair removal centers, and we look forward to helping guests achieve the look they’ve always wanted.”

Royal Vegas Poker has re-launched their already popular poker room and the results have been tremendous. The new look website boasts a cleaner, more modern feel and appearance, and the site’s navigation has been stepped up to ensure a smooth and easy-to use interface.

The website redesign has proved to be very appealing to younger gamers who are enthralled by the many tournaments and charity campaigns that are on offer at Royal Vegas Poker (http://www.royalvegaspoker.com). The site is affiliated with the reliable and reputable Prime Poker network which means prize pools are bigger due to the increased amount of traffic on the network.

“A new look at the site led us to develop a strategy which ensures that players are getting more information at a glance when they land on our homepage. The registration process is clearer too, and much easier so that the user can now download while they surf our site,” says Lou Krieger, well-known poker legend and host of Royal Vegas Poker.

Players can now enjoy poker without any fuss and they’ll enjoy the great services that offered to them on the new site. One can now request forgotten passwords using the simple Password Retrieval system, which makes life so much easier.

The site has been designed to alleviate any stress that gamers may feel while playing at Royal Vegas Poker and the new website allows players to access any help that they may need while playing poker – the best sport around. Now the 24-hour, live support functions, Virtual Tour of the poker room, Alternative Purchasing methods and a nifty, little personal assistant called the Personal Poker Messenger can all be found on the homepage. This makes the player’s experience more enjoyable and less stressful when trying to participate in the tournaments on offer.

Although winning poker is not easy – it requires discipline, skill, and effort – your online registration process should be easy, convenient and as simple as possible. Royal Vegas Poker’s redesigned website was done in response to player suggestions, and will keep you returning to the best poker you can find online.

Fortune Lounge is a leading group of world-renowned casinos and poker rooms and has been endorsed by self regulatory body, eCommerce and Online Gaming, Regulation and Assurance (eCOGRA).

Ever since it burst onto the scene last year with an unheard of $ 1800 deposit bonus and $ 21K blackjack tournaments, Lucky18Casino has been turning online casino players’ heads. In its February issue, Britain’s popular poker magazine, Bluff Europe, recognizes the casino’s maverick character and names it the “Break Out Casino of the Year.”

“They’ve got a really slick site – excellent games, easy to navigate, open to US players,” said Philip Conneler of Bluff Europe. “But what really impressed us about Lucky 18 is the way they’ve just burst onto the scene with fresh ideas and a new approach.”

The article notes Lucky 18′s unprecedented deposit bonuses and even comments on the site’s cheeky purple colour scheme. But, a true card player, the writer zooms in on the upstart casino’s incredible BKJK Bowl blackjack tournament that will award a total of more than $ 50,000 in cash prizes by the end of the Grand Final coming up during Super Bowl week.

“As poker players who have honed our skills in grueling poker tournaments over the years,” reads the article, “Blackjack tournaments, with their reliance on position and strategy, are the way to go. Also, because we’re poker players, we can’t resist good value when we see it, and the Sunday night Weekly Bowls at Lucky 18 Casino offer just that.”

“This site does everything very well, and is easy and quick to navigate,” continues the review. “It’s also keen to stress that it is open to US players, in line with its mission to provide players with exclusive entertainment and the best odds in the business (better than Vegas remember). So, whether affiliate or intrigued poker player, we can safely recommend Lucky18Casino.com as the place to go to cut your online casino teeth and we declare it the Break Out Casino of the Year.”

Lucky18 Casino offers state-of-the-art games and millions in jackpots from Realtime Gaming (RTG), the only one of the major online casino software providers still open to US players. The biggest progressive jackpots available to US players — Jackpot Pinata, Shopping Spree and Midlife Crisis — are offered at Lucky 18. Lucky18Casino’s $ 1800 Deposit Bonus is the most generous anywhere and they provide toll-free telephone support 24-7 to players around the world including the U.S.
