Skincare Procedures & Treatments

For Acne & Skin Rejuvenation

Age, genetics, and lifestyle habits contribute to acne, wrinkles, sun spots, hyperpigmentation, sagging skin, rough texture, and other signs of aging skin. There are a multitude of treatments available to rejuvenate the skin. They include:

Chemical peels: A treatment that removes the damaged outer layer of skin to correct discoloration, mild scarring, and textual irregularities. The type of concentration in the peel is specific to each patient. When the top layer of skin falls off, more even-toned, glowing skin is revealed.
Microneedling: Essentially, microneedling creates micoinjuries in the skin, which trigger the body’s collagen production as part of the natural healing process. Gradual improvements are made in pore size, acne scars, texture, and fine lines.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP): Each treatment has a concentration of your own blood plasma, which contains bioactive proteins and growth factors. This is injected into targeted areas of the skin, triggering collagen growth, softening wrinkles, and improving the tone and texture of the skin.
Microdermabrasion: With a diamond-tipped wand, your dermatologist will pass over your skin and extract debris and dirt from pores, exfoliate dead skin cells, and infuse skincare serums to help encourage healthy skin production.

For Eczema

Also known as atopic dermatitis, eczema is a chronic condition associated with itchy, scaling, and raw skin. For some people, it can be so uncomfortable that it interferes with sleep patterns, daily activities, and general quality of life. Some examples of eczema treatment that local treatment center, Dallas Dermatology Partners, includes:

Antihistamines
Topical corticosteroids
Antibiotics if an infection is present
Phototherapy (exposure to natural sunlight or narrowband Ultraviolet-B light (NBUVB) helps slow the production of skin cells, which improves the skin’s overall appearance)
Immunomodulators (such as cyclosporine)
Dupixent injections (used for severe eczema that is resistant to other treatments)

For Hyperpigmentation

Hyperpigmentation is a skin condition that causes patches of skin to appear darker than the surrounding skin. Often, it is triggered by an inflammatory response, sun exposure, or fluctuating hormones. It is one of the most difficult conditions to completely reverse on your own without the help of medical professionals. Hyperpigmentation treatment includes:

Broadband light (BBL) uses light to target damaged cells beneath the skin’s surface which are then sloughed off for a more even-toned complexion.
Resurfacing lasers target melanin in the superficial or deeper layers of skin, causing the spots to darken, flake over, and eventually fall off after the therapy.
