ULTHERA™/ ULTHERAPY™ – Breakthrough Ultrasound Treatment for Face, Brow & Neck Lift, Reduction of Double Chin & Jowls, and Decolletage Wrinkle Improvement

WHAT IS ULTHERA™ or ULTHERAPY™?
Ulthera™ or Ultherapy™ is a non-surgical face and neck treatment that uses high intensity focused ultrasound to lift and tone loose skin without any downtime. Effective and with no healing time required, this is the preferred treatment for the busy individual to achieve firmer, tighter and lifted skin.

HOW DOES ULTHERAPY™ WORK?
It delivers focused ultrasound (a form of heat energy) below the surface of the skin to stimulate the body’s natural renewal of existing collagen and creation of new collagen. Ultherapy™ targets the deep tissues – the same tissues that are addressed in a surgical facelift – without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. This results in a toning and visible lifting of the skin over time.

HOW LONG IS THE ULTHERA™ TREATMENT SESSION?
A full face and neck treatment takes about an hour. When taking pain medication, expect to do this about an hour before treatment begins.

IS ULTHERAPY™ PAINFUL?
Although pain thresholds vary with each individual, expect to feel tolerable discomfort (akin to an electrical tingling) while the energy is being delivered. This is temporary and can be well-managed with topical anaesthesia. We also administer cream anesthetic as well as a potent pain reliever if necessary for the patient’s utmost treatment comfort.

WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS? WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER THE ULTHERA™ TREATMENT?
After an Ultherapy™ treatment, there is rarely any visible effect beyond mild to moderate redness, which usually fades within an hour after treatment. Since there is no wound or injury to the skin, makeup can be applied straight away. Patients can immediately resume their regular daily activities. No specific care is needed after treatment, although you may be asked to avoid sun and some skin products for a period of time after the treatment.

Ulthera™ treatments are simple and straightforward. Expect lifting and toning over the next 2-3 months, as old collagen is renewed and replaced with new and stronger collagen. As this collagen-building process continues, further improvements can appear up to 6 months following a single treatment. Results will last for up to a minimum of 2 years. This article sums up the process and the real results of an Ultherapy™ treatment – http://www.today.com/style/ultherapy-review-cost-mini-lift-without-surgery-non-invasive-I523243 .

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
Most individuals only need 1 treatment; however, some may benefit from more than one treatment (depending on the degree of skin laxity they have).

BOTOX™ FOR JAW REDUCTION – New Technique for Facial Reshaping

Desiring to slim your face and have an oval-shaped face? This non- surgical jaw reduction procedure will help you accomplish that.

If you have a face shape that looks too big at the jaws, it is possible that you have big masseter muscles that is causing your face to look rounder, bigger or too square. You can slim the jawline with a simple injection of Botox™ on each side of the jaw. This face slimming procedure is popularly known as the non-surgical jaw reduction procedure, or the Botox™ jaw reduction procedure.

The masseters are 2 bulky muscles on each side of the angle of your jaw. They serve as muscles of mastication, which means they help you chew.

Sometimes, big jaws are caused by habitual or subconscious grinding of teeth. With excessive chewing or grinding, the masseters at the jawline can grow to quite a size (causing the jaws to look square). Relaxing the muscles by injecting Botox™ is effective in shrinking the jawline, thereby reducing the square jaw appearance.

BOTOX® Treatment for Wrinkles

Botox® is a toxin produced by a bacteria called Clostridium botulinum. It originally was used to restore a normal voice for people with a vocal chord condition called spasmodic dysphonia. It has also been used to treat uncontrollable eye twitches and embarrassing sweating of the palms and underarms. In the mid 1990’s, plastic surgeons began using Botox injections to treat facial wrinkles.

Botox® will dramatically improve (and often vanish) horizontal forehead creases, scowl lines between your eyebrows, crow’s feet, and vertical wrinkles of your upper lip.

HOW DOES BOTOX WORK?
Dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles, are due to repetitive facial expression. Weakening the muscles responsible for these facial expressions can dramatically improve these wrinkles. With Botox®, these muscles can be weakened without detracting from your facial expressiveness.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN DURING THE PROCEDURE?
As Botox® is being injected, you may experience brief mild discomfort. Following injection, recovery is immediate; you may place make-up and return to work immediately. A few experience mild bruising which improves within a few days.

HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS? HOW LONG WILL THE EFFECTS LAST?
Following the injections, it will take several days before you notice any change in your expression lines. The maximum effect is seen at 2 to 4 weeks. The results should last for 4-6 months. As the Botox® effects wear off, you will begin to notice increased muscle action and some reformation of wrinkles. Reinjections will be needed to maintain your results.

WHAT ARE THE RISKS WITH THIS TREATMENT?
The anticipated risk and discomforts of this treatment are minimal. You may experience temporary redness, bruising, or stinging around the injection sites. In rare cases, you could have a slight lid droop for several days or weeks after the injection. All the reported side effects of the medication have proven to be temporary. Very little of the botulinum toxin is absorbed into the bloodstream. No systemic adverse side effects have been reported from local injection of botulinum toxin at the doses used for facial wrinkles.

LASER GENESIS – Medically-Proven Way to Treat KELOIDS

WHAT ARE KELOIDS?
Keloids are harmless growths of fibrous tissues at the site of a healing scar caused by overproduction of collagen. Keloids are most common on the breastbone, upper back, and shoulder but can occur anywhere on the body. Some people, especially those with dark skin, are more prone to developing keloids.

HOW DO I KNOW THAT I HAVE A KELOID?
Signs and symptoms include:
• Firm, raised, hard scars.
• Colour that varies from slightly pink to very dark.
• Tenderness or itching.
• Continued growth and claw-like projections.

DO KELOIDS DISAPPEAR WITHOUT TREATMENT?
Keloids may continue to grow slowly for weeks, months or years. They eventually stop growing but do not disappear on their own. Once a keloid develops, it is permanent unless removed or treated successfully.

HOW DOES LASER GENESIS TREAT KELOIDS?
Laser Genesis helps in reducing the size and redness of keloids. Minimum of 6 treatments are required for optimum results.

IS LASER GENESIS PAINFUL?
No, Laser Genesis is a comfortable, non-invasive treatment. You will experience a gentle warming of your skin’s surface during the procedure. We have had some people compare it to the feeling of the sun heating the skin.

HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?
The treatment usually takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on the area being treated.

IPL vs. Diode Laser Hair Removal: The Difference

In 2013, a study conducted by the British Association of Dermatologists, the authors compared the satisfaction level, safety, and effectiveness of Diode laser (LightSheer™ XC) and of Intense pulsed light (IPL; Ellipse™ Flex PPT) in the reduction and the removal of unwanted underarm hair. There were 30 women who participated in the study.

The tests were performed for 6 sessions within 4 week intervals. Hair counts were conducted and compared at both sides at baseline as well as 6 months after the participants have undergone the last session. The clinicians and the subjects at the end of the test did the final evaluations. Satisfaction was also scored for both types of hair removal methods.

At 6 months, the reduction in the hair counts of those who have undergone the laser hair removal method was considerably greater compared to that of those who used IPL.

In conclusion, the study has found that hair removal for individuals can be done safely and effectively through both diode laser and intense pulsed light. However, as reported by both the clinicians and the subjects, laser is more effective especially in long term follow-up for complete hair removal, and is a more preferred choice among patients and clinicians.

In addition to the benefits of laser hair removal devices that have been mentioned above, there are a number of other elements that make it a better choice for those who want to remove and experience a considerable reduction in unwanted hair:

• PRECISION – Reduction and removal of hair through a laser device can be much more precise; that it can selectively target coarse and dark hairs while ensuring that the surrounding skin will be left undamaged.
• SPEED – Each pulse of a laser only takes a fraction of a second to treat many hairs all at the same time. Laser has the power to treat a targeted area that has the size of a quarter each second. Through laser, hair growing out of smaller areas, such as the upper lip, can be removed in less than one minute. For larger areas including the legs or the back, the entire process will only take about or less than an hour.
• PREDICTABILITY – 90% of patients who have undergone laser hair removal has experienced permanent hair loss after undergoing about 5 sessions.

At CorDerm Advanced Dermatology & Laser Center, patients can expect one of the best and the most comprehensive laser hair removal treatment. This is because our center uses the Gold Standard in Laser Hair Removal – LightSheer™ Diode Laser, performed by our Board-certified Dermatologist.
