Hair Serum Increases Beard Coverage
A new hair serum I’m carrying in the office can also be used to increase beard coverage in men. It’s called 150k Hair Follicle Serum by DefenAge. A new clinical study shows that the Defensin-containing serum caused a significant improvement in beard coverage. Study participants experienced an increase in visible beard density up to 36% […]
Facial Rejuvenation
Sculptra is a biostimulatory filler – it stimulates your body to produce collagen and elastin in the area it is injected. This reinforces your skin’s inner structure that has been lost over time and restores facial volume. Made of poly-L-lactic acid, Sculptra can last up to two years – much longer than hyaluronic acid fillers. […]
Exosomes rejuvenate and regenerate the skin
I use exosomes as an alternative to PRP. Exosomes rejuvenate and regenerate the skin, just like PRP. But, unlike PRP, no blood draw is required. Exosomes are derived from stem cells and have beneficial healing properties that are especially useful after a heavy laser treatment or microneedling with radio frequency. The exosomes accelerate healing time, […]

The likelihood of developing one of these conditions is determined by how long you wear a mask. Facial skin problems begin to appear with 4 to 6 continuous hours of mask-wearing. We should […]
How the sun affects skin of color
My patients with darker skin tones also experience the damaging effects of the sun, but sometimes differently than their lighter-skinned counterparts. The sun may not cause as many wrinkles, but hyperpigmentation and melasma are more of a problem if you have dark skin. In addition, something called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is more of an issue […]
Fraxel Laser vs. CO2 Laser Treatments
What is the Difference Between Fraxel Lasers vs CO2 lasers? I was recently asked about the strength of a Fraxel laser vs CO2 laser. CO2 lasers have always been the best choice for fine lines, deeper wrinkles and acne scars. They remove tissue (ablate), resulting in some tightening as well. Fraxel is a brand of […]
