What is cosmetic dermatology?

Cosmetic dermatology focuses on appearance enhancement. At Advanced Laser and Skin Cancer Center, cosmetic dermatology treatments are minimally invasive, avoiding surgery and long recovery times. 

What cosmetic dermatology treatments are available?

The wide array of cosmetic dermatology treatments include: 

Laser treatments

Light energy, including laser and intense pulsed light (IPL), treats many concerns. IPL targets age spots and vascular lesions like broken blood vessels by breaking down the pigment or sealing the blood vessel. Lasers address fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen and elastin growth in the deeper skin layers. 

Hair restoration 

Hair thinning or loss responds well to platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. PRP therapy concentrates powerful healing factors from your blood and places them directly into your scalp. Over time, PRP hair restoration treatments can awaken dormant hair follicles and trigger new hair growth.  

Chemical peels 

Chemical peels slough the damaged outermost layers of your skin away to reveal smoother and younger skin. There are mild peels like alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), medium peels (trichloroacetic acid or TCA), and strong peels (phenol). The Vitality Institute (VI) peel blends different acids and improves skin tone, texture, and clarity while fighting lines and wrinkles. 

Dermal fillers®

Dermal fillers like Juvéderm®, Radiesse®, and Restylane®, replace lost volume in your face. They can very effectively treat issues like facial folds, thin lips, and loss of cheek volume. Fillers work instantly and are a popular treatment to combine with other options like chemical peels, lasers, and neuromodulators.

Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators like Botox® reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eye and forehead areas. Botox works by affecting the signals that lead to muscle movement, which means you won’t continually make the movements that lead to fine lines and wrinkles in the upper face. 

There are many other cosmetic dermatology options available too, so ask your Advanced Laser and Skin Cancer Center provider about which approaches could work best for you. 

How long do cosmetic dermatology treatment results last?

Each treatment has different results. Botox can last up to four months, dermal fillers can last as long as 12-24 months, PRP may last at least 18 months, and chemical peel results can last for a couple of weeks or longer. You can schedule touch-ups regularly to keep your great results.
