Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
During Coolsculpting, do the fat cells die during the procedure, or in the weeks after?
Worth the wait...
May 28, 2014
During the in-office
treatment process the fat cells crystalize, then the cells will then die through a
natural programmed death in the following 2-3 days. These dead cells are
cleared through your lymphatic system and the liver where it is processed as
waste. Studies conclude no significant rise in your cholesterol levels and can be the
equivalent to eating only 1 French fry a day for the liver process. The post-procedure
manual massage plays a large role in the crystallized fat cells and...
Tattoo removal (Large tattoo on my back) Can I get rid of the ink?
Several More Treatments
May 27, 2014
Based on your pictures, your tattoo appears to be all black ink, and you had really good results after only 1 treatment. Typically, black ink is the easiest to lighten - so that's good news! Our clinic uses a different laser for tattoo removal than what you mentioned. Based on a RevLite laser, you would only need about 5 more treatments.
10 days post op of Fraxel Repair. Is it normal for the skin to feel a bit tingling like pins and need
Healing will tingle
May 27, 2014
It is very common for the skin to tingle or itch post Fraxel repair. These sensations are related to the healing process of your skin. However, if you are experiencing burning or stinging, you may want to speak with your treatment provider. Those sensations may be associated with your post-treatment skincare.
Since CoolSculpting Freezes Fat to Kill It, Why Not Just Repeatedly Apply Ice Bags?
Common Misconception
May 22, 2014
This seems to be a common asked question, regarding freezing
fat. CoolSculpting devices have monitored cooling mechanisms with precision
cooling that enables safety by affecting only the subcutaneous fat cells and
not negatively effecting skin tissue, nerves or muscle. Cryolipoysis is safe
with minimal side effects when performed by a certified trained provider. If
using ice bags repeatedly on the body, you will have no way control of the tissue
temperature. This may cause damage to skin...
Does freezing fat cells kill or preserve them?
Permanent Fat Removal
May 22, 2014
The treated fat cells are removed through a natural cell death (Apoptosis) and then processed as waste with results seen as early as 3 weeks. The skin and surrounding tissue remain safe and intact with no rise in triglycerides or cholesterol levels in the body, which makes Coolsculpting a healthy alternative for body contouring. Since the numbers of fat cells in the body are set after adolescence, you will not regenerate new fat cells. Making the results lasting and easier to maintain!
What would be the best method for a mole removal on the eye line?
Shave Removal
Feb 17, 2014
Shave removal would my suggestion for this area. This is a minimally invasive procedure done under local anesthetic in a dermatology office that does not require sutures. Shave removal will take about 7 to 10 days to heal and will leave a flat scar about the same size as the mole.
I had a mole removed from my cheek a month ago. My skin is bunching at the edges of the scar, Will it
Be Patient
Feb 17, 2014
You need to let you scar age a full year before knowing its long-term appearance. There are many products available to help the healing process and improve the final look of your scar such as SkinMedica Scar Recovery Gel.
Should I have restylane dissolved or let it dissolve on it's own in time?
Dissolve
Feb 17, 2014
If you are not satisfied with the results of your Restylane injections, I would suggest having it dissolved. For many patients, Restylane can last up to 9 months in the tear trough area. Vitrase injections provide a simple solution to dissolve hyaluronic acid based fillers with little risk of an adverse reaction.
Does raised / scared tattoo work inhibit laser removal?
Start with the Scar
Jan 8, 2014
It sounds as if keloid scarring may have occurred. If that is the case, I would recommend seeing a medical provider to treat the scar prior to starting laser tattoo removal. Typically, keloids require steroid treatment, either topical or intralesional. Once treated, laser tattoo removal should be effective.
Are there any non prescription substitutes to Acanya gel?
No Complete Alternative
Jan 8, 2014
Acanya Gel is a combination of an antibiotic and benzoyl peroxide. Although you cannot find a complete alternative over the counter, you have the option of trying 5% benzoyl peroxide creams. There are many different brands available such as PanOxyl and Clearasil Ultra.
What is the difference between Juvederm and Juvederm Voluma?
Juvederm for Lips
Dec 19, 2013
Both Juvederm and Voluma are hyaluronic acid (HA) products, but they are crosslinked differently. Because of the structure of Juvederm, it is best used to treat fine to moderate lines and wrinkles in the lower face and around the mouth, lasting about a year. Voluma is the only FDA-approved filler indicated to replace volume in the midface. It is
used for relifting the cheek and midface region to restore a natural curve and
lasts at least 2 years. Regarding lip...
Retin a side effects?
Gradual Use is Best
Dec 19, 2013
Dry skin is the most common side effect of Retin A. Your side effects indicate that the product is working! You simply need to use the product less. While issues persist, use the product once per week. Then, use it twice per week, and so on. Gradually work your way up to using the product every night. Many patients are only able to use Retin A every other night, so don't be in a hurry. At any point, if your skin starts to feel irritated, simply reduce the frequency of use.
Is Restylane a Good Alternative to Lip Augmentation?
Amazing Results With Fillers
Oct 4, 2012
Restylane and the other hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm, Perlane, and Belotero) are amazing for lip enhancement because they are soft, pliable and look and feel natural. The choice of product depends on how long you want it to last and the size enhancement you are trying to achieve. These fillers tend to last between 6 and 12 months and then need to be repeated.
I've Had the First Treatment with Sculptra and my Laugh Lines Have Actually Deepened. What to Do?
Sculptra Helps Build Volume, Doesn't Fill Lines
Oct 4, 2012
Be patient. Sculptra stimulates your body to rebuild collagen, which takes months. One treatment is definitely not enough though to correct laugh lines. 2-3 vials is almost always needed to see improvement. The best thing to do is to wait at least 3-6 months to see the full effect of the one treatment you've had. If you don't want to wait that long, you could use a more rapidly effective filler in the area like Juvederm, Restylane or Radiesse. Sculptra is not a line filler....
I Have Box Car and Ice Pick Acne Scarring on my Cheeks. My Dermatologist Recommended Radiesse.
Combination Treatment For Acne Scars
Oct 4, 2012
Combination treatment is almost always needed for scars like the ones you describe. In my clinic, I start with subcising the scars under the surface of the skin to release the scar tissue pulling the scar down. Then, I often do a combination chemical peel to even out the icepick scars and smooth the surface followed by a hyaluronic acid filler just as Juvederm or Restylane to the area if needed. Laser resurfacing can also be very helpful in reducing the appearance of scars...
