Treatment Options-Forehead
Skin Discoloration/Brown/Red Spots
Laser phototherapy Limelight:
This laser is actually a light therapy, used to treat brown spots (sun damage) as well as red spots. Not every skin type is a candidate, and must be assessed individually for candidacy. This is a no downtime laser.
Chemical Peel:
We offer a variety of chemical peel treatments in our office. Chemical peels are used to smooth and improve the complexion and texture of skin. Chemical peels help to even out skin tone, reduce fine lines, sun damage, brown spots and wrinkles by removing the outermost layer of skin. .
Weekend Laser Peel:
A laser peel based on the erbium laser, which is absorbed by the water in the skin. The laser treats the superficial skin by ablating, or vaporizing it, and continues deeper into the skin where it is absorbed by water. This heats the deeper layers of skin, where the collagen and the cells that build collagen reside. Building new collagen has benefits of thickening the skin and attracting more water into the skin, giving it a healthy look and feel.
Microneeding:
A small instrument with tiny needles create controlled little punctures to the skin, which in turn causes your body to heal itself with the production of collagen.
Saggy Skin
Barbed threads:
PDO (dissolvable threads) are placed under the skin and the barb is used to lift the face. The threads begin dissolving approximately at 12 months, long columns of collagen replace where the thread was to create long lasting lift. This treatment can be done for the forehead, eyebrows, cheeks, midface, jowels, jawline and neck. It is not a permanent treatment and will need to be repeated every 12-18 months for long lasting results. There is soreness, but no downtime for this treatment.
Radiesse:
A combination of dermal filler and a biostimulator. This combo gives you both immediate results with volume, followed by long term collagen and elastin production. We utilize Radiesse in two ways, first to mimic deep bony structure for cheeks and jawline contouring and second, we dilute the product to place just under the skin of the face/ neck for fines lines, crepy , loose sagging skin. The biostimulatory quality greatly improves the skin with collagen and elastin production. There is no downtime to this procedure, however, bruising and swelling is always a risk when needles are placed into the skin.
Radio Frequency (RF) microneedling. Using both pulsed wave and continuous wave RF heat to stimulate collagen production. This collagen works to improve pore size, signs of aging, skin laxity, pigmentation, acne, & skin tone and texture. After the procedure you have multiple small channels in the skin, we then pour stem cell derived exosomes over the treated area, which provides nutrients for cellular growth. There is no downtime time to this procedure. Works great for face, neck, chest and hands, but can be used on any part of the body to address stretch marks, scars and skin laxity.
Wrinkles
Botox or Dysport:
Medication that is injected just under the skin into the muscle, it prevents muscles from communicating with each other and contracting, therefore relaxing the wrinkle. Almost everyone is a candidate. It is temporary.
Microneeding:
A small instrument with tiny needles create controlled little punctures to the skin, which in turn causes your body to heal itself with the production of collagen.
