We offer Restylane soft tissue filler. This product is a non-animal,
biodegradable gel based on a natural substance called hyluronic acid. Hyluronic acid is a natural sugar found in all living
cells that attracts and binds water, hydrating the skin and giving it volume. This is injected just below the skin's surface
to temporarily smooth away unwanted lines and wrinkles. Botox®
Cosmetic is a purified protein administered in a simple non-surgical procedure that temporarily improves the appearance of
moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, along the forehead and around the eyes (crow's feet). Botox®
Cosmetic is a quick and minimally invasive treatment. A few tiny injections, and within a week you will see a significant
decrease in lines and wrinkles. Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a gentle resurfacing
technique especially well-suited for defects of the skin such as shallow acne scars, fine lines and improving the overall
appearance. The procedure involves a light mechanical sanding of the upper layer of the skin. With microdermabrasion, a new
layer of skin replaces the abraded skin during healing, resulting in a smoother appearance. Microdermabrasion
is a non-surgical procedure that requires approximately 20 minutes of your time. The new skin that appears is smooth and supple.
A slight pink appearance may last for up to 24 hours. It's important for patients to remember to wear a sunscreen with
an SPF of 15 or higher to protect the new healthy skin. Not exclusive
to teenagers, many young adults, people in their 20's and 30's, have trouble with acne that is hard to control.
The Blu-U treatment - using light without drugs or antibiotics - may be something for you to try. Blu-U Light Photodynamic
Therapy was cleared in 2003 by the FDA for the treatment of moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris. The Blu-U is a very
special blue light that can kill the p. acnes bacteria in your skin. Treatments are simple - you simply sit with your
face close to the blue light for a short time at a schedule set up by Dr. Ross, usually a 15-minute session once or twice
a week. The treatments may go on for four to five weeks. It's very safe, it's not hot, it's not painful
at all. After some weeks the blue light can control your acne, or clear it up for a very long period of time.
Laser Treatments: Laser Hair Removal - We are proud to announce the addition of the Mini GentleLase, Candela's latest model of the original GentleLase Plus, which has been voted "Best
hair removal laser". This new laser is the fastest laser on the market, has the largest spot size and incredible results
in very few sessions. And all with less pain due to Candela's DCD, Dynamic Cooling Device, which momentarily delivers
a cool burst of cryogen to protect the skin and lessen the sensation. We invite you to come by for a FREE CONSULTATION and
it would be our pleasure to explain, in detail, all about laser hair removal, answer your questions, and do a test spot if
you'd like, so you can see how the laser feels and how it works. Check out our Specials page for our current specials!
The Iridex Diolite 532 laser is used to treat the following skin conditions: freckles, brown age
spots, small spider veins, rosacea and small hemangiomas. Using a pencil-thin hand piece, the laser directs an intense beam
of light to bring energy to a specific site, causing destruction by heat to unwanted cells, while leaving healthy cells intact.
Slight discomfort varies between patients and sites; however, a topical anesthetic is applied prior to treatment to ease any
pain. Side effects and post-operative care are minimal, leaving you to resume to normal activities immediately.
Chemical peeling is a technique used to improve
the appearance of the skin. A chemical solution is applied to the skin, which causes it to separate, peel off, and allows
new skin to regenerate. The new skin is smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin, and may also be more even in color.
We offer a variety of superficial peels. During your consultation, Dr. Ross will determine which peel best suits your cosmetic
needs. We are pleased to offer the NeoStrata Skin Rejuvenation System, a glycolic acid peel system that can only be performed as an in-office procedure by a trained professional.
It provides controlled and predictable removal of surface skin cells, stimulating skin renewal to improve the appearance of
the skin. The procedure is fast and convenient, taking only about fifteen minutes. And with virtually no recovery time, you
can be back to your normal routine the same day. There is no significant pain or discomfort and the treatment is fairly
inexpensive.
