Research: Cosmetic Procedures

Research activities at Skin Laser and Surgery Specialists are going strong. We are currently evaluating the new eMatrix device from Syneron, which produces different results depending on the tip we utilize. On lighter skin we are using the machine to treat photoaging, where as for darker skin types we are using the eMatrix to tighten skin and diminish the appearance of acne scars. To provide patients with a youthful look and healthy skin we are also assessing the Viora Reaction, which combines RF energy and vacuum therapy to treat cellulite, as well as Ultherapy as a non-surgical approach to lift, firm, and tighten skin on the face. In addition, we are testing out Allergan Voluma, which is a volume filler for natural facial recontouring, as well as Medicis’ Dysport for relief from oily skin and facial flushing. Ultimately, we look forward to presenting our results next month at the Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and Anti-aging Medicine meeting at New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel as well as at the FACE meeting at London’s Royal College of Physicians.
