The Southern California Specialists
Help You Understand
Your Options
The most appropriate skin care treatment
for you will really depend on your unique situation. Options
can vary based on the condition you're trying to remedy,
the results you desire, and the level of intensity you're
looking for from a skin care treatment. Your options may
also be limited based on safety or your skin tone. Our
team is made up of some of the best skin care specialists
in San Francisco, so they'll help you determine the most
appropriate plan.
There are a variety of skin problems that
plague both men and women, all of which can cause embarrassment
and tired, aged appearances. Much of this is caused by
wrinkles, age and sun spots, and plain old poor skin tone
or large pores - all things caused by aging and the elements.
Microdermabrasion is a simple method of battling these
skin imperfections, as it involves a series of short treatments
and a minimal dowtime.
Another treatment option, and one best used
for improving overall skin tone, is a chemical
peel. This
method works to remove scars and discolorations, even out
the surface of the skin. A more abrasive technique than
microdermabrasion, the chemical peel most often requires
a downtime of about 3-7 days, but usually provides results
after just two treatments.
If wrinkles in the upper portion of your
skin are your only enemy, Botox may
be the most effective treatment. An injection of Botox
produces temporary wrinkle-smoothing
results. It is best used, though, for certain wrinkles
in the forehead and on either side of the eyes, so it might
have to be combined with other treatments if you have other
imperfections to remedy.
Finally, photofacial is among the favored
methods of skin care in Southern California. Probably the
best multi-tasker of all the skin care treatments, photofacial
is very effective
at
correcting skin with sun damage, age spots, wrinkles and
fine lines, red spots, broken capillaries (facial veins),
or acne and acne scarring. What's more, photofacial is
a fantastic remedy for rosacea, often referred to as adult
acne. It's a condition that can develop suddenly, leaving
a person unprepared and embarrassed.
