Frequently Asked Questions
Skin care products help us correct and protect our skin from environmental damage. We carry Obagi, La-Roche Posay/ Biomedics, and Revision skin care products. All of the products we carry are prescription/clinical-strength and are therefore more effective than any other over-the-counter products. During your consultation, the skin care specialist will outline all of the options available to help you achieve the results you are looking for. She will also explain any possible risks and complications and before photos will be taken for your medical record. We recommend you bring a list of any questions or concerns to your consultation.
We offer skin care products to help correct, eliminate, and control:
• Acne
• Hyperpigmentation, discoloration, age spots
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Sun damage
• Enlarged and/or clogged pores

Or to help maintain healthy, youthful skin
Smooth, fresh facial skin – it’s the promise of countless beauty products and salon services.
However, no product on the market is able to match the results that can be achieved in your plastic surgeon’s office.
Every person, regardless of age, race, skin condition, or desired results, should be on a Vitamin C product in the morning and a Vitamin A product in the evening. Many people think they are covered with this if they take the vitamins in an oral form. However, the skin does not get the benefits of the vitamins unless they are used in a topical form. Our office offers stronger forms of these vitamins than you can buy over-the-counter.
How much do the treatments usually cost?
Price will vary depending on the products you choose. However, the price range is from $7* to $100* for individual products, which will usually last approximately 2-3 months. Your skin care specialist will work with you to find the best product regimen to fit your budget.
Is there a consultation fee?
Yes, there is a $50 consultation fee. If you purchase any products during your consultation, this fee will be waived
Who is the best candidate for medical skin care products?
Everyone!!!! Men, women and teenagers who are tired of acne, fine lines and wrinkles, skin discoloration, brown spots, dry skin, oily skin, sensitive skin or simply want to keep their skin healthy and young. Our treatments are safe for all skin types and ethnicities.
Can’t I get the same products at a local store for less money?
No, our skin care products are only available at a certified physician’s office because they are prescription/clinical strength and most products have at least twice the amount of active ingredients in them than the leading over-the-counter products do. In many cases our products are less expensive than other retail stores. Best of all, our products are more effective and you see results sooner than with non-prescription skin care products.
How are the products and treatments here better than at a salon or other facility?
The treatments and services we offer can only be performed in a doctor’s office. Our treatments are stronger and more effective than any treatment performed outside of a medical office. The treatments are all part of a strict medical program designed to help you achieve the best results possible in as little time as possible. We are helping you correct a specific condition with your skin, not conceal it.
How soon will I see results?
Individual results vary but most patients see improvements in the skin within 2-3 weeks.
Our office offers treatment programs for virtually every type of patient and every budget. During your consultation, the skin care specialist will outline all of your options and help you choose which program is best for you. We proudly offer our patients Obagi, La Roche-Posay/Biomedics and Revision skin care products.
