Scars left behind by acne present individuals with a great deal of distress and can destroy their self-esteem.

Acne Scar Treatment

While acne sores are bad enough, the scars they leave behind can seem like a permanent, long-lasting nightmare. Scars can rob individuals of their self-esteem and cause a great deal of distress for those suffering with them, affecting much more than their daily interactions with people. As hard to believe as it may be for those with blemish-free faces, stress from acne scarring can destroy a person’s self-esteem, with detrimental effects on their professional, romantic, and social lives.

Acne is a common skin condition that takes the form of blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples.

Acne Treatment

In the United States, the most common skin condition both men and women suffer from is acne. Acne is a blanket term that’s used to describe the differing forms of acne vulgaris, which will include many types of acne like blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples. While mild acne or occasional moderate breakouts can be bothersome and difficult to deal with, severe forms of acne vulgaris, like cystic acne and nodular acne can be quite painful and disfiguring.

Birthmarks often tend to be hereditary while others can appear due to pigment cells or crowded irregular blood vessels.

Birthmarks are rather curious features, given that no one really knows why we have them. Some birthmarks can be hereditary, while others simply appear in one of two ways. The first kind happens as a result of sudden growth of pigment cells in one area, called pigmented birthmarks, or from irregular blood vessels that crowd together beneath the skin, known as vascular birthmarks.

Aims to correct issues with the upper eyelid and under eye areas, such as under eye bags and droopy eyelids.

Blepharoplasty is a type of plastic surgery that corrects or repairs concerns of the upper eyelid (upper blepharoplasty) and under eye area (lower blepharoplasty). It can be performed for several reasons, including the removing dark under eye circles, under eye bags, and droopy upper eyelids.  It also can be performed for creation of natural looking eyelids or simply for the aesthetic purpose of restoring the eyelids to a smoother, younger looking appearance.

Widely used for correcting wrinkles and other aging concerns in the face, but also used to treat other health issues.

Botox

Botox injections have several helpful uses. Although widely known for their cosmetic use in correcting fine lines, wrinkles, and other aging concerns of the facial area, Botox treatments are also useful for their work in helping temporarily treat hyperhidrosis (an overproduction of sweat), reducing the size of large calf muscles, helping treat chronic migraines, headaches, and neck pain, and in helping control an overactive bladder, just to name a few.

Aims to improve the facial appearance through the tightening and ridding of excess skin and tissue around the eyebrows.

A brow lift, which is also known as a forehead lift or browplasty, aims to improve the facial appearance by tightening or getting rid of excess skin and tissues that cause eyebrows to sag. Various types of brow lifts exist, but they all share the same goals: to lift underlying muscles and forehead tissues in a way that lessens wrinkles and deep furrows, which can cause a person to look older and angry.

Thins the cheeks by removing facial fat to enhance the outlines of the cheekbones, jawline, and face.

Buccal Fat Removal (Cheek Reduction)

Buccal fat removal is a surgery that thins the cheeks by removing facial fat. The goal of this procedure is to remove the fat stored in the cheek hollows and thereby enhance your cheekbones and the contours of the jawline and face. It is popular with people who have a “baby face", chubby cheeks” or “chipmunk cheeks”. A single treatment thins the face permanently without visible scarring. The cost to have it done ranges between $1500-$7,500 depending on various patient-specific factors.

A skin resurfacing technique that causes the skin to exfoliate and peel to enhance its appearance.

The ideal chemical is chosen for the desired depth of penetration. The skin is thoroughly cleansed prior to the administration of the solution. The chemical solution is then applied to the desired areas of treatment. The candidate is closely observed for changes to the skin. Whitening of the skin is monitored to assess epidermal damage and is a sign of epidermolysis. As the peel progresses to a frosted appearance this indicates a deeper depth of penetration into the dermis.

Once the appropriate amount of time has elapsed, the solution is then neutralized with another agent such as sodium bicarbonate. Some peels do not require neutralization, as the skin naturally neutralizes them. The skin is then cleansed. Various dressings such as silicone may be applied, ointments or emollients can be utilized after the peel has completed to form a protective barrier. This is more common for deep peels and is typically not necessary for more superficial peels. Keep in mind that the depth of peel is determined not just by the chemical composition or strength of ingredients, but also by the length of time it is left on the skin.

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing technique to improve the appearance of the skin. A solution is applied to the skin which causes it to exfoliate and "peel off". There are many chemical peels available that range from superficial to deep. The choice depends on the desired depth of penetration, treatment effect, and recovery time. Typically, the deeper the peel, the greater the results, but they are also associated with greater recovery period and adverse effects.

Improves the appearance of the chin and face through the reshaping and repositioning a small, large or misshapen chin.

Chin Surgery

Chin surgery represents a surgical procedure that improves the overall appearance of the chin and face by reshaping or repositioning an inordinately small, large, or misshapen chin. Whether a person with a "weak chin" gains volume and projection via a chin implant or an individual has their big chin made smaller via reduction surgery, the goal of chin surgery is to offer a more aesthetically pleasing and balanced look.

Get fuller and thicker lashes through eyelash enhancement serums, extensions, and enhancements.

Eyelash Enhancements

Individuals seeking fuller lashes have a number of ways to make their natural lashes thicker, longer, and more prominent.

Plastic surgeons even offer eyelash implants, wherein hair follicles are transplanted from other locations to provide thicker lashes.

Get recommendations into individually tailored procedures that will rid your face of unwanted signs of aging.

Facelift

There are several variations of a facelift procedure, or rhytidectomy, each tailored to meet specific skin needs and desired results. After assessing your skin and determining your unique needs, your surgeon will recommend a procedure that will address your individual concerns. The goal of each facelift technique is to essentially “lift up” portions of the face and neck that are showing unwanted signs of aging through the use of plastic surgery, thread lift surgery, or dermal filler injections.

Nourish your skin, remove dead skin, and get rid of unsightly acne scars or wrinkles through a relaxing facial session.

While there are many different types of facials, most will begin by cleansing the skin using facial sponges, cloths or cotton pads. The eyes will be covered with moistened pads for the next step. Using a lighted magnifying glass, your skin will be evaluated. During this phase, the esthetician may discuss their findings and ask about skin care regimen and your expectations for the facial.

Next, an exfoliation cream, gel, mask, gommage or peel will be used. Certain exfoliation products, such as enzyme peels, require the product to be left on the face to dissolve the plugs that cause blackheads. Other products require either manual or machine stimulation. Depending upon the exfoliation product used, steam will either be applied to the face during that phase or after the product has been removed. Some spas may use heated, moist towels instead of steam. The moist heat loosens plugs and encourages skin to sweat out any impurities that may be caught in pores.

During the extraction phase blackheads and possibly whiteheads will be removed. Facial massage stimulates and lubricates skin. The esthetician may use a massage oil or lotion during this process.  Depending upon the facial, the esthetician may choose a mask that will then be applied. After the mask is removed, the esthetician will likely apply a specialty serum to the skin. Serums include those for aging skin, for blemished skin and for sensitive skin. Lastly, the esthetician will apply a skin-specific cream or gel to the skin. They may also apply an eye gel and/or lip treatment cream.

Facials

Having a facial can be a rewarding, pleasurable experience that can be much more than just a relaxation session. Maybe you are looking to target acne scars, visible signs of sun damage, or lines and wrinkles. Or it could be you are wanting to nourish sensitive skin, remove dead skin or gain a more youthful appearance. The fact is, facial treatments can address these problems and many others, and can be a wonderful way to refresh your skin and feel rejuvenated, inside and out.

Achieve a youthful glow to your hands through procedures such as laser skin resurfacing and chemical peels for hands.

Hand Rejuvenation

The skin on our hands reveals telltale signs of aging just as much as our facial skin. However, hand rejuvenation treatments can provide a youthful appearance for the hands using the same skin care procedures designed to enhance the face. Laser skin resurfacing reduces liver spots while filler injections add volume to the treatment area. From chemical peels to fat transfers for the hands, there are plenty of cosmetic procedures to improve the aesthetics of the hands.

Gain fuller, vibrant lips through this cosmetic procedure that reshapes the upper or lower lip.

Lip Lift

It typically costs between $1,500-$4,000, depending on several patient-specific variables.

Exfoliate dead skin while reducing wrinkles, acne, and dark spots through a microdermabrasion procedure.

There are two kinds of microdermabrasion treatments. One approach involves a hand-held device that streams tiny crystals across your skin. An attached vacuum simultaneously suctions those exfoliating crystals back into the machine, along with the dead or loosened skin. The newer approach uses a diamond-tip wand that is gently moved across your skin to exfoliate. Each treatment will last about a half hour. You may feel a mild scratching as the procedure removes the superficial skin cells. Additionally, you'll notice a vibrating sensation akin to a massage. There is also a suction mechanism to lift off the dead skin.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive treatment that exfoliates dead skin using crystals or diamonds via a vacuum-powered wand. Microdermabrasion may increase collagen production while reducing wrinkles, acne, and dark spots.

Microdermabrasion is a very popular, minimally-invasive procedure. According to the 2017 Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Statistics Cosmetic Procedure Trends report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there were 740,287 microdermabrasion treatments performed in 2017.

Replenish facial lines and fix sagging skin on your buttocks, knees, and elbows that you have accumulated through aging.

Thread Lift Treatment

As we age, our skin loses its youthful appearance, and signs of aging become more and more obvious. Fine facial lines and sagging skin are just two aging indicators, but they are important areas to address because these early signs of aging indicate a breakdown of the skin’s tissues. The face and neck areas are common areas of concern, but a thread lift procedure can also be used to address other areas of concern such as sagging buttocks, and wrinkly knees and elbows.
