"The Medical Cosmetology Center combines the science of dermatology and the art of cosmetology to give you exceptional results."

 

Our skin is a very complex organ. It is influenced by many factors, such as ultraviolet light, temperature, humidity, nutrition, and lifestyle. With the knowledge and experience of a skin care practitioner, the staff combines the science of dermatology and the art of cosmetology to address your skin care needs. Anti-Aging, Age Spots and Cosmetic Approaches

Although it is not possible to turn back the hands of time, its effects can be dramatically slowed down and improved with the arsenal of procedures and techniques available to your dermatologic surgeon.

The natural aging process generally produces lines and wrinkles, age spots, splotches and pigmentation problems, broken capillaries, dull skin texture and color, and other skin flaws. Also, a once-attractive mole or birthmark may change into an unattractive protrusion, or a once unnoticeable scar may become more apparent when wrinkles form around it.

Sun-damage compounds the aging process. Ultraviolet light from the sun penetrates not only the outer layer of skin, but also those layers underneath which fortify the skin and lend it resilience.

Prescription anti-aging creams and topical products offered in the Vu Skin System product line can be used to treat the milder symptoms of aging such as damage to the skin's uppermost layers.

For more advanced signs of aging and sun-damage, our staffwill choose the surgical method or combination of methods best suited to your individual skin condition. Following are the common categories of treatment to refine your appearance and make your skin look and feel healthy and attractive.

Botox^© Cosmetic Treatments

Botox is an FDA-approved therapy used to put facial muscles to rest which are causing wrinkles.  We use Botox^® to treat wrinkles on the frown lines on your forehead, on the lateral sides of your eyes (crow's feet), and on the wrinkles on your nose between your eyes (glabella).

Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

"Fillers" are generally used to "plump up" and minimize wrinkles, furrows and hollows in the face, giving the skin a smoother and more pleasing appearance. Although there are a number of fillers on the market, we currently offer Restylane^®, Juvaderm^® and Radiesse^®.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are designed to treat the fine lines and wrinkles under the eyes and around the mouth. In addition, chemical peels treat mild scarring, certain types of acne, sun spots, liver spots, freckles, and post-inflammatory pigmentation.
