Chemical Peels
Peels are an excellent treatment for rejuvenating the skin and restoring a fresh appearance.
Peels are designed to gently remove the very outer layers of the skin while stimulating a healing and regenerative response in the deeper layers. They are a form of resurfacing along the lines of LASER resurfacing but using chemicals instead of light energy. A variety of Chemical Peels are available at RAI depending on the client’s specific goals and expectations for downtime.
VI Peels™
VI Peels are the most popular peels offered at RAI and are phenol-based. VI Peels are suitable for all skin types and are a comfortable application. A post-peel care protocol is included and easy to follow.
I describe the VI Peel as our most democratic peel since they have wide appeal regardless of skin complexion. Specialized peels for acne are available within the VI Family of peels.
Maximum peeling occurs at 3-5 days following application with results apparent soon after peeling stops.
TCA Peels
TCA is Trichloroacetic Acid and is a chemical related to vinegar. TCA Peels denature the outer epidermis and may penetrate into the superficial dermis depending on the concentration – usually 25%.
A frosted appearance to the skin is the result of proper application and the post-care is more involved than lighter peels. After care requires the frequent application of an occlusive hydrating agent such as Aquaphore. Results are apparent at 1-week following treatment.
Hetter Peels
The Hetter/Bensimon Peel is a Phenol and Croton Oil peel and the strongest peel we offer. It is a modification of the Baker Peel that many of you may be familiar with. The Hetter Peel is suitable for clients seeking a more dramatic result and is an excellent option for deep established wrinkles or leathery sun damaged skin.
The Hetter Peel consists of applications of different strengths of the compound to different areas of the face thus avoiding patch hypopigmentation. It’s proper application results in frosting and it penetrates to the level of the superficial dermis. It requires a regional anesthetic of the face during administration and results are apparent 10-14 days following treatment. Clients are provided with detailed post-care instructions. I have learned this technique directly from Dr. Bensimon.
In order to determine which peel will benefit you the most, please arrange for a consultation at SkynBar.
Microneedling results in facial rejuvenation by the mechanical stimulation of collagen pruction in the superficial dermis. It is a form of regenerative medicine in the sense that it stimulates the body to rejuvenate itself. Microneedling is administered by a hand held device with a special array of fine needles. The depth of treatment is carefully calibrated by the physician depending on the desired results.
I find the treatment highly effective when administered as a series of treatments . It results in fine line correction, correction of superficial telangectasias, and correction of minor scarring.
Microneedling may also be combined with other agents such as dermal builders or proteins that promote the healing process.
Micronnedling is performed in our offices and it is comfortable. A post-procedure care regimen will be provided at the time of treatment.
One should consider Microneedling for the following reasons:
- Treatment of fine lines of the face
- Treatment of acne scars
- Improvement of facial scars
In order to determine whether micro-needling is an appropriate therapy for you, please schedule a consultation at SkynBar.
The Hydrafacial MD system and treatment is a proprietary technology that cleanses, polishes, and infuses active compounds in to the skin. The system uses gentle pressurized solutions and suction with specialized applicators to achieve these results.
Following cleansing of the skin, a series of protein-based agents may be infused into the skin such as Dermal-builders, Glysal-peel, etc. The treatment is delivered in approximately 20-minutes and one may resume usual activities immediately.
One should consider Hydrafacial MD treatment if:
- Seeking immediate improvement of skin texture
- As a maintenance treatment
- Preparing for a special event
The Hydrafacial MD is a popular in-office treatment with minimal downtime. In fact, one may safely undergo Hydrafacial MD treatment a few hours before a special event – popularly known as the Red Carpet Facial.
To determine whether you may benefit from the Hydrafacial MD treatment, please arrange for a consultation at SkynBar by calling (404) 963-2623.
Our second location, SkynBar, is pleased to offer the first FDA approved non-invasive skin tightening technology. Ulthera, or Micro-focused ultrasound with visualization, harnesses the properties of sound to carefully and selectively target deep tissues of the face and neck to create skin tightening and lifting.
Ulthera treatments are administered in our offices and range in duration from 20-45 minutes per area. Clients of all skin types are candidates for Ulthera and there are few exclusions to treatment. I recommend Ibuprofen approximately 1-hour prior to treatment and I do not recommend topical analgesics.
Ulthera has been proven effective in clinical trials for treatment of the brow, midface, neck, and décolleté. It firmly occupies a tier in the spectrum of non-invasive treatments. Ulthera works by heating tissues at precise depths. The heated tissue responds by initiating a healing response which includes deposition of collagen and remodeling.
Results from Ulthera typically occur in two phases. There is an immediate skin tightening following treatment followed by a more gradual lift and qualitative improvement in skin quality as collagen is stimulated and re-organized. The second stage of results occurs at roughly 90-days following treatment.
One should consider Ulthera for the following reasons:
- Tightening of the chin or waddle
- Lifting of facial skin
- Lifting of the brow
- Improving the décolletage
- Treatment of fine lines around the eyes or mouth
Ulthera is extremely safe and no major complications have been reported with its use in over a quarter-million applications worldwide. Ulthera is neither a radiofrequency device nor is it LASER device.
The indications for Ulthera continue to expand and future applications may include non-invasive gluteal lifting, arm lifting, and medial thigh lifting.
To determine whether you may benefit from non-invasive skin-tightening with Ulthera, please arrange for a personal consultation at the SkynBar by calling (404) 963-2623.
