"The Medical Cosmetology Center combines the science of Dermatology and the art of Cosmetology to give you exceptional results."

Our skin is a very complex organ. It is influenced by many factors, such as ultraviolet light, temperature, humidity, nutrition, and lifestyle. With the knowledge and experience of a skin care practitioner, the staff of the Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery Center combines the science of Dermatology and the art of Cosmetology to address your skin care needs.

Anti-Aging, Age Spots and Cosmetic Approaches
Although it is not possible to turn back the hands of time, its effects can be dramatically slowed down and improved with the arsenal of procedures and techniques available to your dermatologic surgeon.

The natural aging process generally produces lines and wrinkles, age spots, splotches and pigmentation problems, broken capillaries, dull skin texture and color, and other skin flaws. Also, a once-attractive mole or birthmark may change into an unattractive protrusion, or a once unnoticeable scar may become more apparent when wrinkles form around it.

Sun-damage compounds the aging process. Ultraviolet light from the sun penetrates not only the outer layer of skin, but also those layers underneath which fortify the skin and lend it resilience.

Anti-aging creams and topical products offered in the VuSkin System product line can be used to treat the milder symptoms of aging such as damage to the skin's uppermost layers.

For more advanced signs of aging and sun-damage, the staff of the VuCare Clinic will choose the surgical method or combination of methods best suited to your individual skin condition. Following are the common categories of treatment to refine your appearance and make your skin look and feel healthy and attractive.

Deep Wrinkle Treatments
Our Deep Wrinkle Treatments are designed to eliminate any unwanted wrinkles on or around the facial area. Although facial lines and wrinkles are believed to be caused by aging or sun damage, it is wearing down of the body's natural collagen support layer which is the root of the problem. Located directly beneath your skin's surface, this layer forms a "cushion" for the skin's epidermis to rest on. As outside factors, like exposure to the sun, pollution, and the aging process begin to wear away at the collagen layer, your skin has less support, and wrinkles begin to appear.

BOTOX Cosmetic Treatments
Botox is an FDA-approved therapy used to put facial muscles to rest which are causing wrinkles.  We use Botox to treat wrinkles on the frown lines on your forehead, on the lateral sides of your eyes (crow's feet), and on the wrinkles on your nose between your eyes (glabella).  

Chemical Peels / Glycolic Peels / Trichloraceatic Acid (TCA) Peels
Chemical peels are designed to treat the fine lines and wrinkles under the eyes and around the mouth. In addition, chemical peels treat mild scarring, certain types of acne, sun spots, liver spots, freckles, and post-inflammatory pigmentation.  

Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
"Fillers" are generally used to "plump up" and minimize wrinkles, furrows and hollows in the face, giving the skin a smoother and more pleasing appearance. Although there are a number of fillers on the market, we currently offer Restylane, Juvaderm and Radiesse.
