Christmas and New Year’s are coming! For many of us, this means parties, gatherings, and being with friends and family members we may not see often. It’s understandable that you want to look your best for these occasions.
While we certainly agree that beauty goes much deeper than your appearance, it’s important to take good care of your skin, which will result in a radiant, glowing look. Perfect for the holidays.
Cosmetic Dermatology Services for the Holidays
Our Medical Dermatology Department can help you with conditions like acne, psoriasis, rosacea, and much more, but this time of year, our Cosmetic Dermatology Department really shines. Here are some services that are excellent to consider for the holiday season and beyond.
Injectables
Cosmetic injectables can address signs of aging, smooth out facial folds, and more. The results typically provide a simple solution for beautiful, radiant, and more youthful skin across the face and neck.
At Rodgers Dermatology, we have several cosmetic injectable options, such as:
- Botox
- Dysport
- Xeomin
These injectables are different from dermal fillers (another great option discussed below), as they block the communication between the nerves and muscles in the face and neck, causing those muscles to relax to provide the appearance of smoother, more youthful skin.
More About Botox
Botox, discovered in the 1950s, is an extremely popular cosmetic treatment this time of year. It temporarily blocks the signal from nerves to muscles in the area where it is injected. This causes relaxation of the muscles and a reduction in wrinkles. The muscles are essentially paralyzed, which allows for a smoother, fuller look.
With Botox there is no anesthesia, no downtime, and no scarring. The procedure takes only a matter of minutes and is performed in our office. Typically, you will see Botox results within a few days following the treatment, and they should last three to five months. Now is the perfect time to schedule an appointment with us so you’re ready for all the holiday events.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are used to treat aging skin or augment features. Treatments can smooth fine lines and wrinkles; add volume to the temples, cheeks and lips; and address skin laxity. Dr. Rodgers can combine dermal fillers and other cosmetic procedures to help you look and feel your best.
The primary dermal fillers we use include Juvederm, Restylane, and Perlane. These treatments replace lost fullness, restore youthful contours in the face, and smooth away wrinkles and folds. The fillers we inject are composed of naturally-occurring substances in your skin.
Laser Treatments
Dr. Rodgers has been using lasers in his practice for over 15 years and is truly an expert in this cosmetic treatment option.
Some of the laser treatments we offer that you might consider during the holiday season include:
- Laser tattoo removal
- Laser hair removal
- Skin tightening
- Skin rejuvenation
- Laser skin resurfacing
- Body contouring
- Body sculpting
- Spider vein treatments
- Treatments for excessive underarm sweating
- Reduction in port wine stain appearance
Some of our most popular laser options include Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), ResurFX, PicoSure, Ultherapy, and VBeam treatments.
Skin Rejuvenation
Wrinkles, freckles, sunspots, visible blood vessels, and skin texture can all be improved with skin rejuvenation procedures.
At Rodgers Dermatology, we have many options available to help you regain a youthful appearance and glow. A few of our most popular treatments include:
- Chemical Peels — We have various peels that can remove damaged outer skin layers.
- Fractional Ablative Laser Treatments — These are used to more aggressively remove outer layers of skin to smooth out lines and wrinkles.
- Microneedling — This minimally invasive method is great for treating light scarring and discoloration.
