Just to be very clear. Patients’ eyes should ALWAYS be protected when using laser devices. And, patients’ eyes are always protected in our office. We use both external shields and...
There’s no reason I know of that it would be a problem, although there are no studies on this specific question. Sculptra is made of lactic acid molecules (L-polylactic acid)...
Okay, so there is a short term and a long term problem here. For the short term, as soon as possible, please get a hydroquinone 4% cream, a tinted, high...

One of the best investments in your skin is your daily skincare. Why? Because you can prevent many problems with blotchy skin color, lack of glow, texture, some types of acne, and fine lines with good skincare products. You can also correct some of these problems with effective skincare products. Great skincare is often more expensive because quality ingredients are expensive. Some companies spend on research/development which benefits all of us and adds to the cost. Are they worth it? In general - yes! I have handpicked some of what I consider to be the best skin care products, and offer them for sale on SkinTour's shop. This is based on my team and I's testing and research at our clinic. Many of the products are in my own regimen. What could be better than using skin care products a dermatologist uses?!
