DOT THERAPY

DOT Laser Resurfacing and Rejuvenation
Finally there's a safe, simple, predictable laser resurfacing technique that produces immediate results. This procedure reverses the appearance of aged and sun damaged skin by smoothing and erasing wrinkled, splotchy skin and at the same time significantly improving texture and laxity. This is the most advanced and sophisticated laser I have ever worked with. There's no aspect of this laser that needs to be improved. I can customize a variety of treatment settings to deliver a unique result to each patient's particular need including down time.

Giving your skin a fresh, new, natural , smooth and clean appearance is dramatic in and of itself, but the DOT procedure works best when complimented by volume restoration(fillers), wrinkle/hyperkinetic facial expression line relaxation (botox/dysport), skin polishing maintenance(prescription peels/microdermabrasion) and skin tightening (thermage).

THERMAGE

Thermage is one of the most popular basic, effective, painless, no down time RF laser procedures regularly performed in my practice. It is the most effective and efficient non-surgical method to tighten facial skin; especially contouring the jaw line, raising the brows and tightening the loose skin under the chin.

It also tightens other body parts including the stomach, buttocks, thighs and inner arms. The results last 2 to 3 years thus requiring appropriate periodic maintenance. The procedure takes approximately one hour and is performed by the doctor. A significant skill level by the physician is critical in producing natural appearing and satisfying results.

Thermage skin tightening is only a single part of an overall comprehensive cosmetic enhancement approach that typically includes facial volume restoration (fillers), wrinkle expression line relaxation(botox/dysport), skin polishing(prescription peels/microdermabrasion ), laser rejuvenation and resurfacing("DOT" fractional laser) and a topical science based treatment regime (retin-A, anti-oxidants and human growth factor).

LASER SKIN REJUVENATION

Laser Facial Skin Rejuvenation has been the gold standard method to condition and tune up for your skin. In combination with our light prescription peels it gets rid of the skin's dead layers, cleans out the pores, tightens the skin and gives the skin a uniform color and texture. It exchanges out the skins older deeper components for new ones. Under the microscope, the before and after micrographic pictures appear as if the initial older skin has been exchanged for new younger skin. It also firms, stiffens, conditions and tones the skin. It improves the quality, health, structure and appearance of the skin. The procedure has no pain, requires no anesthesia, takes a few minutes and has no down time. Typically a series of 6 treatments (approximately 2 to 4 weeks apart) with a single semi annual maintenance is recommended. It is a basic starting point in a comprehensive skin maintenance regime.

LASER HAIR REMOVAL

Laser hair removal has become the gold standard and most effective method for hair removal. The new generation of lasers are practically painless and do not require any topical numbing agents. In an experienced dermatologist's hands the procedure is totally safe with predictable satisfying results. Common areas for hair removal include face, underarms, bikini, back, arms and legs. Four to six monthly treatments typically provide permanent hair reduction results. No person should be shaving, waxing or using electrolysis in the 21st century.
