Need to Refresh Your Results? Try Band Aid Procedures!

, , , , , , , ,

Having a facelift can be a great decision for women and men alike to choose to take charge of the effects aging has on the face. However, as years pass and the aging process inevitably continues, I am often asked what can be done to revitalize the initial results of a traditional facelift. As a double board-certified plastic surgeon, I offer many options for patients who wish to see a reinvigorated appearance.

Need to Refresh Your Results? Try Band Aid Procedures!As we age, collagen production unavoidably slows down and lends to the appearance of wrinkles and sagging in the skin. Though having a facelift procedure all over again generally is not necessary, Band Aid Facelifts can be an ideal solution to touch up your results.

Though Band Aid Facelift was created to relieve signs of aging for patients who don’t yet require a traditional facelift, its purpose also perfectly suits those seeking to renew previous plastic surgery results. Band Aid Facelift is performed in-office, uses smaller incisions and gentle numbing instead of general anesthesia. It also necessitates a far shorter recovery than traditional facelift, with most patients able to return to normal activity within 3 to 5 days.

Countless patients have been and continue to be very pleased with the subtle, natural-looking results that stem from the procedure.  As an added benefit, Band Aid Facelift brings fewer risks due to the less invasive nature of the procedure as a whole.

As an additional option for patients seeking to restore a younger, more alert appearance, I offer Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing and Skin Tightening with Protégé. These minimally-invasive procedures provide just the right amount of rejuvenation and are performed in-office with gentle numbing. You can stimulate collagen production and eliminate fine lines, wrinkles, acne, sun spots, and lax skin in just a few treatments! Whether utilized as initial treatments or regular maintenance to your previous results, each of these procedures aid in renewing a younger-looking complexion.

To determine your candidacy for a Band Aid Plastic Surgery or traditional procedure, contact our office to schedule a consultation. You can also learn more about my minimally-invasive procedures by connecting with me, Dr. John LeRoy, on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+.

How Method & Skill Influences the Effectiveness of Laser Skin Resurfacing

, , , , , , , , , , ,

Truth be told, laser skin resurfacing is no longer a new or innovative procedure. In fact, you’ll find laser service centers promising smooth skin that defies the test of time every few miles in nearly every major city. It’s not the presence of a laser that makes the real difference on your skin. It’s the method, skill, and experience of the person using it.

the Effectiveness of Laser Skin ResurfacingBand Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing is a component of my Band Aid Plastic Surgery line, a collection of minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures that utilize gentle numbing and require no extensive downtime. In fact, most laser skin treatment patients only require one treatment for noticeable anti-aging results. We’re able to provide this by utilizing DOT laser skin resurfacing, a refined version of the fractionated laser technique that uses thinner columns of laser light than other fractionated techniques.  The result? The body’s healing responses are activated, promoting a speedy recovery and fine-tuned results.

The newer fractionated laser technology also enables patients to achieve more natural looking results for those seeking subtle rejuvenation. The most common side effect following Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing is a sunburned appearance immediately following treatment. Still, patients are able to immediately return to their normal activities with this reddish appearance diminishing within 3-5 days.

If a patient’s facial aging encompasses more than just the skin’s surface, I may recommend looking into Band Aid Plastic Surgery procedures such as Band Aid Facelift or Band Aid Blepharoplasty (eyelid lift). By delving slightly deeper, I can address lax underlying muscle or excess skin that often adds to an aged appearance.

To determine if Band Aid Laser treatment is right for you, schedule your consultation with me, Dr. John L. LeRoy, today.  Don’t forget to also connect with us on Facebook, and Twitter for the latest cosmetic treatment news and specials.

Feel Fabulous for the Fourth & Beyond with July Specials!

Are you between the ages of 40 and 54 years old? If so, you make up the majority of all people who have cosmetic procedures according to statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). In fact, over 6.5 million people in this age group had minimally-invasive plastic surgery in 2013. With these procedures being so popular, I’m pleased to offer savings on some of my favorite treatments from my Band Aid plastic surgery procedure line.

atlanta plastic surgery specialsAs a double board-certified plastic surgeon, I offer procedures like Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing and Band Aid Skin Tightening in order to provide you with the healthy-looking, radiant, and renewed skin of your dreams in just a few hours, with no downtime or anesthesia required.  Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing can suspend the need for surgical facial rejuvenation by decreasing the appearance of the fine lines and wrinkles that naturally follow aging while restoring beautiful skin damaged by years gone by. Performed in office with gentle numbing, Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing makes results from other Band Aid plastic surgery procedures even better, or can provide noticeable radiant results on its own.

The controlled, gentle RF heat of Band Aid Skin Tightening treatments targets deep dermal layers of the skin to promote collagen production. By the end of your package of 5 treatments, you will notice a reduction in fine lines, sagging skin, and deeper wrinkles. What you won’t notice? The extensive downtime associated with other surgical skin rejuvenating procedures. Rather, you’ll be good to carry on with your day in a matter of minutes.

Millions of people each year receive cosmetic injections, with hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Perlane® and Restylane® increasing 18% in popularity last year (ASPS). As an added bonus, we invite you to join us to take advantage of special rebates on some of our most popular facial fillers! Through the end of the month, receive $35 off each mL of Perlane® or Restylane® (maximum 5mL per patient) and $25 of each treatment of Dysport® (maximum $50 rebate per patient). Dysport® was named among other Botulinum toxin type A injections as the single most popular minimally-invasive cosmetic procedure of 2013.

Get Rid of Sun Damage with Laser Skin Resurfacing

, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Ah, summer. A time for relaxation, icy cold drinks, and…sun damage? Unfortunately, all of the fun in the sun that accompanies the hottest of seasons often adds up to moderate to heavy sun damage, especially after years of inadequate protection.  For those looking to reverse sun damage, I offer Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing for my patients to rejuvenate their skin overall.

laser resurfacing in atlanta georgia - Dr John LeRoyThe advanced technology of DOT Therapyâ„¢ gives me the capability to alter the laser settings during treatment to suit your specific needs, allowing me to exclusively treat each concern. The treatment uses tiny columns of precise laser light to increase collagen production while lessening the appearance of wrinkles, sun damage, and facial scarring over time. This laser treatment differs from others because it is consistent with the qualities of all of the procedures in the Band Aid line: it’s completed in-office with gentle numbing to diminish down-time and allow for the best patient comfort and results possible.

The Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing procedure is ideal or my patients who may not yet be in need of the cosmetic changes produced by facial plastic surgery, but would like to reduce damage from the sun or other harsh factors. You may even want to consider combining Band Aid Laser treatment with facial rejuvenation using cosmetic injectables like wrinkle relaxers or facial fillers that may enhance your results overall or assist in delaying the desire for surgical facial rejuvenation.

Even if you have undergone facial plastic surgery, laser skin resurfacing can further enhance or refresh your results.  Though facelifts and other surgical procedures can certainly treat sagging skin and wrinkles while retaining a natural look, Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing can maximize cosmetic results by significantly eliminating damage and other surface imperfections.

While reversing sun damage to some degree is possible, I always recommend prevention as the best method for beautiful skin. Wear a broad-spectrum, SPF 30 or higher sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and stay out of direct sunlight when possible.
