Yes, every patient receives a personalized and thorough consultation to address their specific concerns and skincare goals.

Laser Treatments

Our photon-based therapies include LED lights, intense pulsed light (IPL), and a variety of laser wavelengths, including ablative and non-ablative lasers.

Given the overwhelming number of devices on the market, we understand choosing the right treatment can be challenging. Our mission is to provide a thorough consultation and offer tailored treatments that prioritize safety and results

Some treatments may cause discomfort depending on the level of skin disruption. Our expertise in surgical dermatology and cosmetic surgery allows us to minimize discomfort during more intensive procedures.

Results vary based on individual goals, but many patients see good results after one session and remarkable results after three sessions.

If the treatment involves skin disruption, some downtime may be necessary. However, many of our treatments preserve the skin’s integrity and require no downtime.

Injectables & Fillers

Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily paralyzes muscles but does not add volume. Recent studies also suggest Botox may improve skin vibrancy. Fillers, on the other hand, provide volume and contour but do not affect muscle activity.
Temporary fillers last 6 to 12 months, semi-permanent fillers last 1 to 3 years, and permanent fillers can last over 10 years. Botox typically lasts 3 to 6 months.
FDA-approved treatments are tested for safety, but side effects or complications can occur depending on the technique and individual response.

Body Contouring & Sculpting

We offer techniques for both volume augmentation and reduction without surgery.
Results for both volume augmentation and reduction are typically visible immediately.
Non-surgical techniques generally have minimal downtime, but you may need a few hours to a couple of days depending on your activity level.

Safety & Side Effects

We only offer proven and safe procedures. However, as with any medical treatment, there is always a risk of side effects or complications.

Ablative lasers that destroy skin tissue may cause scarring and discoloration. Non-ablative lasers are safer but typically produce more modest results.

We use protective goggles, carefully control device settings, and utilize advanced skin cooling techniques to ensure patient safety.

Post-Treatment Care

We will provide detailed post-treatment instructions based on your procedure. As a general rule, be gentle with your skin, avoid scrubbing or pulling, and minimize heat and sun exposure.
In most cases, yes. However, if the treatment involved any intentional skin disruption, makeup may need to be avoided temporarily.
This depends on whether the treatment caused any skin disruption. We will advise you based on your specific procedure.
