Skin Care Consultation
Whether you’re a skin care novice or have tried every “miracle” cream on the market, whether you’re battling blemishes or wrinkles, or both, this is the place to uncover the facts about what will and won’t help your skin, and exactly why that is. After a thorough review of your skin health history and lifestyle habits, the skin is thoroughly cleansed and analyzed. The skin is viewed under a magnifying lamp and a Wood’s Lamp that allows us to observe conditions in the skin that can’t be viewed with the naked eye. Finally a full range of product and treatment options are reviewed to assist you in making educated decisions for the health and beauty of your skin.
BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium. It is a nonsurgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily reduce moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people 18 to 65 years of age. During treatment, very low doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic are administered via a few tiny injections directly into the muscles that cause those stubborn lines. The treatment is usually done in about 10 minutes, and no recovery time is needed. Within days, you may see an improvement that can last up to 4 months. Results may vary.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels have been used for over 100 years to create an even and controlled shedding of damaged skin cells. A chemical peel is a solution applied to the skin to improve the texture by removing its damaged outer layers and stimulate the production of new skin cells. It tightens the skin, reduces wrinkling and restores a more youthful appearance. It is also helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alpha and beta hydroxy acids (AHA and BHA) are used for this purpose.
Injectable Thread Lift®
The Injectable Thread Lift® literally lifts the skin and tacks it back, anchoring it away from the dreaded weight of the folds. This technique is appropriate for any patient who has sagging skin that needs to be redirected, whether it is nasolabial folds, oral commissures, upper lip overhangs or jowling.
JUVÉDERM®
A “next-generation” hyaluronic acid dermal filler, JUVÉDERM® injectable gel is indicated for injection into the mid to deep dermis for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds). JUVÉDERM® offers clinically proven persistence up to 1 year with initial treatment¹ and is formulated with innovative HYLACROSS® technology, resulting in a smooth consistency gel that flows easily into the skin and creates a natural look and feel for your patients.

Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion has become an increasingly popular method for facial rejuvenation. Microdermabrasion is a gentle, gradual exfoliation of the skin's surface cells that reduces damage caused by age, sun and other environmental and hereditary factors. It can minimize fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring and even lighten age spots, and can be performed on any part of the body.
Microdermabrasion utilizes ultra-fine aluminum oxide crystals to resurface superficial layers of the skin. Vacuum pressure is used to evenly penetrate deeper layers of the skin. By gently, precisely exfoliating the surface of your skin over a course of weekly sessions, microdermabrasion remove years of buildup, revealing your skin beautiful. This repeated process stimulates the production of a new layer of skin cells, bringing with it an increased level of collagen and elastin, which further improves your skin's appearance.
Spa Services
Our spa treatments offer a relaxing and therapeutic enhancement to your at-home skin care regimen. They are milder than our clinical treatments but may be combined with clinical therapies to achieve both relaxation and deep stimulation of the skin- so you can have the best of both worlds. Therapies may also be modified for those with special skin conditions such as rosacea and patients undergoing radiation and chemotherapy. Ask our doctors for information about additional services our aesthetician provides.
