With proper skin care, you can keep your appearance looking younger for longer. One of the classic methods for treating skin is called microdermabrasion. This procedure is an exfoliating skin treatment that refreshes your complexion by peeling away old, dead skin cells. Microdermabrasion is a medical-grade skin treatment that promotes healthy skin through exfoliation. The treatment also boosts the production of new collagen, which is a vital part of keeping skin firm and youthful. The procedure is performed by using a hand-held device to gently brush the skin’s surface. The treatment is tailored to the patient’s goals and can be combined with a facial or chemical peel.

Giving your skin excellent care is an important part of maintaining your youthful appearance. Chemical peels are a great way to reduce the signs of aging and refresh your complexion. These exfoliating treatments can soften fine lines, wrinkles and other skin blemishes. Chemical peels are topical skin treatments where specialized blends of alpha, beta, lactic and glycolic acids are used to remove the topmost dead layer of skin. This clears up the pores, loosens dirt and exfoliates the skin. There are different degrees of strength for chemical peel formulas. Stronger formulas can achieve deeper peels.

Unwanted hair can be a nuisance to control and keep presentable. Traditional measures like shaving and waxing are effective but ultimately short-term and may be problematic if hair is in difficult-to-reach areas. Fortunately, there is laser hair removal.

This heating destroys the hair follicles without damage to the surrounding skin. The procedure is convenient and effective for all skin types, although some skin types may require additional sessions. To learn more about laser hair removal, speak with one of our experienced staff members at […]

A recent study of twins illustrates how smoking ages the face. Smokers are likely to get bags under their eyes and wrinkles around their lips earlier than non-smokers, according to a new study of identical twins. Judges who didn’t know which twin smoked said the smoker looked older 57 percent of the time. That pattern held when both twins were smokers but one had smoked for many years longer than the other. “Smoking makes you look old. That’s all there is to it,” Dr. Elizabeth Tanzi said. “At Yolo the most common complaint we hear related to smoking is lip lines and overall dullness of the skin. We have a […]

The FDA recently approved the use of the silicone “gummy bear” implant. The 410 implant by Allergan is an anatomically-shaped, textured, silicone cohesive gel implant that is much firmer than the previous silicone gel implants. To better understand what these are and how they differ from currently available options, let’s talk facts. First, the Gummy Bear Implants are simply silicone breast implants that are “semi-solid” and more highly cohesive than their predecessors. You can literally cut through the implant with a pair of scissors and the two halves will actually keep their shape. But because these implants are more cohesive, they are also firmer than previous implants and more likely […]
