At IHL, we have recently introduced aesthetic medicine into our practice. Increasing age, low hormone levels, and UV sun damage all cause damage to our skin resulting in pigmentation and wrinkles. Many are afflicted with frequent outbreaks of acne. Some of you may be experiencing difficulty losing the last remnants of fat after successful weight loss. Cellulite may be a considerable problem.
We have introduced three procedures to help with these problems:
1. Microdermabrasion
2. Chemical Peels
3. Mesotherapy
We shall be introducing Botox and Dermal fillers soon.
The Truth About Skin Care
The human skin is the largest organ in the human body and is exposed to UV sun damage, neglect, and the natural aging process. As we grow older, prior neglect or damage to the skin begins to appear in a variety of ways; pigmented lesions, vascular lesions, wrinkles, uneven skin tone etc. Many of these underlying conditions can either be corrected or deferred through the use of medical grade chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and cosmeceuticals.
The one truth about skincare is that it is never too early to start to take care of your skin. Chemical Peels in conjunction with microdermabrasion is a great starting point to achieving your desire for younger, healthier looking skin and is still considered to be the “gold standard” amongst Dermatologists. There are a variety of different chemical peels available and each type of chemical peel has varying benefits. As part of your initial consultation we will discuss with you the various types of peels and the added benefit of microdermabrasion. In addition, we will advise you of various cosmeceutical products available to maintain or correct various skin disorders and help devise a maintenance program so you may enjoy the results of your treatments for many years to come.
