Cosmetic Therapy Types
Anti-Aging Treatments Both traditional medicines and newly discovered anti-aging treatments are employed here, with careful consideration of the needs and philosophies of each particular patient to produce a visibly younger complexion.Antioxidant Peel This is the latest addition to our in-office peels. The anti-oxidant peel contains Vitamin C and E, Green Tea extract, and Beta glucan, which are all beneficial to the skin. The anti-oxidant component of this peel protects the skin from environmental damage from UV rays and free radicals. It works against the damage caused by the sun, pollution and cigarette smoke.
The Anti-Oxidant Peel:
· Enhances collagen production
· Improves skin texture
· Smooths fine lines
· Evens out darkened areas of the skin
· Reduces skin inflammation
BOTOX® BOTOX® treatments are a simple, safe, and effective way to improve facial expression lines (frown lines between the eyebrows, crow's feet at the outside corner of the eyes, forehead wrinkles), and muscle bands in the front of the neck. Many of these problems are hereditary and are all signs of aging.
Cool Glide Laser Cool Glide Laser is used for the treatment of:
- Facial Blood Vessels
- Broken Leg Vessels
- Spider Veins
- Cherry Angiomas
- Laser Hair Removal
Facial Fillers By far the most common site for facial filler augmentation is the lips; second would be the cheeks. Since more fat in the face provides a younger appearance, we often fill any line, wrinkle, groove, or hollow appearing spot on the face including acne scars, scars, nasal labial folds, and chicken pock scars.
There are a wide variety of injectable facial fillers on the market today. Out of any product category, injectable facial filler types are the most abundant. From bovine collagen to Restylane, to even semi-permanent injectable micro implants. Injectable facial fillers are quick, effective and an inexpensive solution.
Injectable facial fillers are generally considered soft tissue augmentation materials. There are many categories which include temporary absorbable methods and permanent facial fillers.
Laser Hair Removal We offer several different options for laser hair removal. This process ensures that each patient gets the best treatment available for their skin and hair type. During our consultation process you will be carefully examined to determine which option is right for you.
Our CoolGlide system is considered by most to be the gold standard for dark skin types. This Nd:YAG laser can be used to treat all skin types without damaging pigment. The “Cool” treatment tip ensures patient’s comfort while delivering an effective amount of energy to eliminate unwanted hair.
The Prowave 770 system allows us to treat lighter skin or hair types with ease. The enhanced cooling features and larger tip size allows for a faster, more comfortable session. With its advanced technology the Prowave can be tailored to the individuals’ hair size, type or color to ensure the most effective treatment available.
Typically a series of 4-8 sessions is required for optimal clearing of unwanted hair and can vary based on the treatment area or hair and skin type.
Feel free to schedule a consultation with Board Certified Dermatologist, Debra Jaliman, MD at her Manhattan, New York office for the Cool Glide Laser treatment.
We offer complimentary consultations for All Laser Procedures
Medlite "C" Laser The Medlite Laser procedure offers patients the safest and least invasive way to effectively minimize the appearance of wrinkles and scars in any skin type.
Pigmented Lesion Removal with the Medlite™ Series of Medical Laser Systems
The Medlite lasers are commonly used for the removal of epidermal pigmented lesions such as brown age spots, "liver spots", freckles and many brown birthmarks. Usually, only 1 treatment is required for the majority of these lesions. Although more treatments are required, the laser can also greatly improve and often remove difficult dermal pigmented lesions such as Nevus of Ota and Mongolian Spots.
Polish Peel The Polish Peel uses a controlled spray of very fine, pure crystals, which gently polish the skin, as well as stimulate collagen production. Unlike other peel machines (such as Microdermabrasion), the Polish Peel is a gentle, non-aggressive suctioning machine, which will not affect the capillaries of the face. After the Polish Peel, an anti-aging cream will be applied that will deeply penetrate for increased effectiveness. Although peeling may not be visible, the peel is highly effective. The Polish Peel is a safe, non-surgical procedure that is effective for all skin types and doesn’t require a recuperation period.
Restylane Restylane produces instant and long-lasting wrinkle correction.
Restylane is the first and only dermal filler in the U.S. composed of NASHA™ gel, Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid. Restylane has been proven to give long-lasting correction of moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds. Results from restylane are immediate!
- Documented results that last six months, or even longer
- Excellent safety profile
- Over one million treatments worldwide
- No allergy testing required
- A simple, convenient procedure
- Restylane maintains its shape using the body's own moisture. So perhaps it's not surprising that the the most basic element of natural beauty, water, holds the key to the long-lasting benefits you can expect.
Scar Revision Scars - whether they're caused by accidents or by surgery - are unpredictable. The way a scar develops depends as much on how your body heals as it does on the original injury or on the surgeon's skills. Many variables can affect the severity of scarring, including the size and depth of the wound, the blood supply to the area, the thickness and color of your skin, and the direction of the scar. How much the appearance of a scar bothers you is, of course, a personal matter.
While no scar can be removed completely, doctors can often improve the appearance of a scar, making it less obvious through the injection or application of certain steroid medications or through surgical procedures known as scar revisions.
Sclerotherapy Sclerotherapy can easily and painlessly remove your unwanted spider veins.
What Is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a popular method of eliminating varicose veins and superficial telangiectasias (“spider veins”) in which a solution, called a “sclerosing agent,” is injected into the veins.
What Are Spider Veins?
These are the small, dilated veins seen frequently on the thighs, around the knees, on the calves, and around the ankles.
Tattoo Removal There are several methods of tattoo removal which have proven effective. The degree of remaining color variations or blemishes depends upon several factors, including size, location, the individual's ability to heal, how the tattoo was applied and how long it has been in place. For example, a tattoo applied by a more experienced artist may be easier to remove since the pigment was evenly injected in the same level of the skin. New tattoos may also be more difficult to remove than old ones.
Today, lasers (Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation) have become the standard treatment for tattoo removal because they offer a bloodless, low risk, effective alternative with minimal side effects. Each procedure is done on an outpatient basis in a single or series of visits. Patients may or may not require topical or local anesthesia.
Feel free to schedule a consultation with Board Certified Dermatologist, Debra Jaliman, MD at her Manhattan, New York City office to discuss which cosmetic procedure is right for you.
