Cosmetic Dermatology

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, nonsurgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people from 18 to 65 years of age. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

ß-LIFTx® (BETA-LIFTx®) facial peel is a new dermatologic procedure for revitalizing your skin and rejuvenating your appearance. In just five minutes, this beta hydroxyacid peel leaves skin with a healthy, youthful, smooth and tight appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles are less apparent and the skin tone is more even. This procedure is also helpful for acne and brown spots.

DiamondTome Skin resurfacing is a treatment that improves wrinkles, skin texture and color by removing the topmost layer of skin leaving it more supple and vibrant. Skin Resurfacing also stimulates the elastic tissue beneath the surface of the skin resulting in a healthier and firmer appearance. A wonderful alternative or compliment to chemical peels, the DiamondTome Skin Resurfacing treatment is non-invasive, pain-free and requires no down time after treatment.

Restylane is used to replenish the dermal volume loss that allows wrinkles to form. It is also used to enhance lips and fill in acne scars. Because it is minimally modified, Restylane has a low incidence of hypersensitivity reactions and requires no skin testing prior to treatment. The chemically stabilized hyaluronic acid found in Restylane can remain in the dermis up to one year. This is significantly longer than the collagen based dermal fillers.

The Obagi Nu-Derm System is the physician-dispensed, prescription-strength skincare system that can actually transform your skin at the cellular level. By addressing the signs of photo damage and restoring the healthy function of your skin cells, this system is clinically proven to result in younger- and healthier-looking skin.

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses laser light — an intense, pulsating beam of light — to remove unwanted hair. Laser hair removal works by passing a light beam through the skin. The laser targets dark pigment, called melanin, in hair. When the light beam hits the hair follicle (where hair growth originates), the intense heat destroys the hair follicle instantly.
