Do I Have Ptosis, and What Can I Do About It?

What is Ptosis?

Ptosis is a condition that affects the upper eyelid,  and it occurs when the eyelid margin hangs down and obstructs part of the eye. It isn’t the skin that hangs over. It’s a droopy lid. While ptosis isn’t dangerous, many people want to eliminate it for aesthetic purposes, given that drooping eyelids can create an aging or continuously exhausted appearance. Additionally, in the most severe cases, ptosis may even block part of your field of vision.  (more…)

How IPL Can Minimize the Appearance of Scars

Oftentimes, topical creams and serums that claim to treat scarring fail to provide noticeable results in a reasonable time frame. If you have scarring that won’t respond to topical treatments, IPL therapy could give you the clear, even complexion that you desire. This non-invasive treatment can safely and dramatically improve the appearance of scarring and hyperpigmentation. 

How Does IPL Work?

IPL, or intense pulsed light, is a treatment that uses specific light wavelengths to target skin concerns. This is ideal for patients struggling with scarring, acne, age spots, and hyperpigmentation. The treatment works by damaging the scarred, pigmented skin in a precise and controlled manner. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing process.  (more…)

Transition Your Skincare Routine from Summer to Fall

As the season transitions from summer to fall, so should your skincare routine. While the steps of your regimen should largely remain the same, altering the products that you use can ensure that your skin remains protected and hydrated in the fall and winter. Here, we’ll discuss how you can take care of your skin this fall for a beautiful, glowing visage.
