Rejuvenate Your Face with Sculptra at SKIN MD

Aging is an inevitable process of life to be welcomed. However, our face has over 40 muscles and repetitive facial expressions along with age, natural and environmental stressors are bound to leave a mark. As we age, our collagen production slows resulting in fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin or hollowed cheeks. At SKIN MD MedSpa, we offer an incredible treatment called Sculptra. This revolutionary procedure stimulates your body’s collagen production to provide natural-looking and long-lasting results. 


What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved, non-surgical, injectable treatment that effectively treats the signs of aging by stimulating collagen  production. Our body’s collagen is a vital protein that provides structure, elasticity, and firmness. As we age, collagen production decreases. Sculptra is made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and biodegradable substance that stimulates  our body’s collagen production, gradually restoring volume and improving skin texture.

Hair Transplant Treatments: Reclaim Your Confidence at SkinMD

March 30, 2025
Hair loss is a natural part of life that many people face, whether it’s due to aging, genetics, or other factors. It’s something that affects both men and women, and while it’s common, it can still feel frustrating and even impact your self-esteem. The good news? You don’t have to accept hair loss if you're not ready to. Thanks to advancements in hair transplant treatments, you now have the opportunity to restore your hair and regain your youthful appearance. Embrace Your Youthful Look with Hair Transplant Treatments Hair loss doesn’t have to define you, and it certainly doesn’t have to stop you from feeling as young and vibrant as you are. Whether you're dealing with a receding hairline, thinning hair, or more significant bald spots, a hair transplant can offer a permanent solution. This treatment gives you the chance to reclaim your natural hair, boost your confidence, and maintain the look you desire for years to come.  Why Hair Loss Happens Hair loss can occur for a variety of reasons, but the most common cause is androgenetic alopecia, or male and female pattern baldness, which is typically genetic. Other factors, such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or hormonal changes, can also contribute to thinning or falling hair. While these factors are often out of our control, they don’t have to be the end of the road when it comes to maintaining a full, healthy head of hair.

Before and After Care for Botox and Filler Treatments at SkinMD

March 1, 2025
Botox and dermal fillers are popular treatments that help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss, providing a youthful, refreshed appearance. To get the best results, it's crucial to follow the proper pre- and post-treatment care. Here’s what you need to know for your Botox and filler treatments at SkinMD. What Do Botox and Fillers Do? Botox is an injectable neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles causing wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. Dermal Fillers restore lost volume and smooth deeper wrinkles, commonly used on areas like the lips, cheeks, and nasolabial folds. Before Your Appointment To ensure a smooth treatment and optimal results, follow these tips before your appointment: Avoid Blood Thinners : Refrain from taking NSAIDs like aspirin, ibuprofen, or Aleve for one week before your appointment, as these can increase bruising. No Alcohol : Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to treatment to reduce bruising risks. Cold Sores : If you have a history of cold sores, especially around the mouth, inform your provider a few days before your appointment. Medication can be prescribed to prevent an outbreak. Dental Procedures : Avoid dental work for at least two weeks before and after dermal filler treatments to avoid complications. Hydrate and Eat : Be sure to drink water and eat before your appointment to avoid feeling lightheaded. Pre-Treatment Supplements : Consider taking Arnica or Bromelain to reduce bruising and swelling, and Tylenol 1 hour before the procedure for added comfort. Health Restrictions : Botox and dermal fillers are not recommended for pregnant or nursing individuals or those with certain neuromuscular disorders. After Your Appointment Proper aftercare is essential for the best results. Here’s how to care for yourself after treatment: Swelling and Bruising : Mild swelling, redness, and bruising are common but should subside within a few days. A cold compress can help reduce swelling during the first 24 hours. Hydrate : Drink plenty of water to support healing. Eating pineapple or continuing Arnica and Bromelain supplements may also help with recovery. Elevate Your Head : Sleep with your head elevated for the first few nights to minimize swelling. Makeup : Wait 24 hours before applying makeup to reduce the risk of infection. Be Patient : It can take up to two weeks for the full effects to appear, so be patient as your results settle. Follow-Up Treatments : Follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain or enhance your results. Consult your provider for guidance.
