COSMETIC TREATMENTS


If you are considering cosmetic treatments, SKIN Specialists offers a wide range of procedures that enhance the appearance of your skin. 


Dermal injectable options include volumizers like Sculptra, Radiesse, Restylane Lyft and Voluma XC; and hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm and Restylane. 


Botox or Dysport, injectable neurotoxins, are often used in conjunction with volumizers and dermal fillers to relax dynamic wrinkles and the downward pull of the facial muscles. Kybella can also be used to reduce fat under the chin. 


Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is available to treat facial redness due to rosacea and skin damaged from the sun or showing early signs of aging, including brown spots, uneven pigmentation, and changes in skin tone and texture. 


ResurFx is also offered to provide specialized treatment of acne scars and enhanced skin resurfacing. 


Lasers are utilized for tattoo and hair removal and leg vein therapy provides the gold standard, sclerotherapy, combined with laser services and IPL to maximize treatment outcomes.  We will work with you to customize a rejuvenation plan that meets your personal skin care goals and complements your lifestyle. You will find your skin looking healthier and more vibrant in less time that you can imagine!

ASSESSMENT

Assessment treating and rejuvenating your skin is a process that can be confusing and even a little intimidating. With so many options available, its hard to know what is appropriate for you. At SKIN Specialists, we ask that you start by scheduling a personal consultation and complete a Self Assessment that will provide some background information and reflect your interests in rejuvenation. These will be discussed while you hold a hand held mirror so that your interests can be further amplified. We will review medical history to determine possible contraindications and then assess your overall skin texture and tone, facial muscle structure, symmetry and volume, and product history. Finally, we will recommend options that will help you obtain your personal goals. Your photograph will be taken before treatment so that you can see the difference over time.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

BOTOX® COSMETIC and DYSPORT®   

If your brow and forehead have permanent lines and you look like you are frowning even when you are not, you may want to consider an injectable neurotoxin like Botox Cosmetic or Dysport. These products provide a simple non-surgical procedure that smooth deep, persistent facial wrinkles caused by hyperactive muscles beneath the skin by blocking transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles of a target area. Each product has been aggressively tested and approved by the FDA. Neurotoxin injections have no scarring and result in minimal downtime.

Leg Vein Therapy

Lip Filler Treatments

Lip Filler Treatments

Leg Vein Therapy utilizes a combination of treatments as needed to treat leg veins. Sclerotherapy is the standard of care when treating reticular veins and telangiectasia, called spider veins, of the legs. A very small needle is inserted into the blood vessel where a small amount of a sclerosing agent is gently injected. This causes inflammation within the lining of the blood vessel, which causes the vessel to shrink down, close and gradually disappear.

OxyGeneo™

RF Microneedling

Liquid Lift

OxyGeneo™ is an innovative technology for skin exfoliation (removal of dead skin cells from the skin surface).The OxyGeneo™ produces CO2 bubbles which gently burst on the skin surface creating a physiological response, sending oxygen-rich blood to the area, increasing capillary flow and skin metabolism. 

RF Microneedling

RF Microneedling

RF Microneedling

Collagen induction therapy, aka micro-needling, is a cosmetic procedure that involves repeated puncturing of the skin with tiny, sterile needles. Appropriate for all skin types, it results in the formation of new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Micro-needling is most often used on the face to address fine lines, acne scarring, pigmentation and skin texture, but other areas can be treated per your doctor’s determination.  A series of four to six treatments is recommended, depending upon the area.
