I have many patients who are interested in improving their necks but happy with their faces. And I agree with you that the risks of surgery, since it’s really a...
I would probably say neither! Necks are a very tough area to improve with current technology. Generally Thermage on the neck doesn’t work well because the skin is very thin...
I think the neck is a little bit the “holy grail” right now in the nonsurgical world. There’s a lot of interest and research being done. Here are some general...
You bring up several good points. The most common evolution of acne over a 10-15 year period is from the center of the face (“t-zone”) gradually moving out to the...
Hmmmm – your question makes me wonder how much experience your doctor has with these products because, in general, most experienced injectors do not try to use hyaluronic acid fillers...
In my opinion, the best way to treat this skin non surgically is the fractionated/pixilated CO2 laser. Think 1-3 treatments with 2-6 months in between treatments. Full results are seen between 3-6...
Even a year ago, I probably would have said “no, don’t waste your money.” But the newer fractionated CO2 lasers look promising, although the data is early and sparse. It can often...
It sounds to me like you’re talking about a platysmal band(s) which are the vertical bands running from the chin down onto the neck???? If so, consider having your dermatologist...
Okay – so I need a little more information here. Are you talking about a pooch or fullness right under the chin which is usually a fat pad (submental)? Are...
Shirley – Are the lines on your neck circular "necklace" line or more the criss-crossy crepey lines? As a general rule, these need different solutions. The necklace lines are related more...
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?!
