Rejuvenating MedSpa Treatments

Sun damage, wrinkles, pregnancy mask, smoking, and aging can all cause you to appear older than you are. Using a combination of professional skin care treatments, such as microneedling, chemical peels, microdermabrasion and IPL photofacials, our patients from Plano, McKinney, Frisco, and the surrounding Texas communities can have the smoother, more youthful skin they desire. In combination with facial plastic surgery to remove fine lines and wrinkles on the face, professional skin care treatments and products can greatly improve the skin’s texture. By removing fine lines, hyper-pigmentation, and dead skin cells, professional treatments can reveal a more refreshed, younger appearance. 

If you are interested in microneedling, laser skin rejuvenation, medical grade chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser hair removal, or professional skin care products, contact Frisco Plastic Surgery. We can give you the smooth, beautiful skin you’ve always wanted.

Microneedling 

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment to rejuvenate the skin by creating tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin.  These tiny punctures prompt the creation of new collagen and elastin to help improve skin elasticity and strength and protect the skin tissue from stretching.  During this treatment, a specialized hand piece with very tiny needles is guided over the treatment area.  Areas treated with microneedling are typically the face, neck, chest and tops of hands.  Prior to treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize any discomfort.  Patients usually feel light pressure as the hand piece is guided over the treatment area.  The area will have some redness and tightness immediately following the treatment and this may last for up to a few days as the collagen rejuvenation process occurs.  For optimal results, a series of treatments, four weeks apart, may be recommended. 

Laser Skin Rejuvenation

Photofacial (IPL) laser skin rejuvenation treatments using our Elite MPX Laser System are used to correct skin texture, color, and tone. All treatments are administered by a certified laser practitioner.

Photofacial, or IPL, can treat brown spots and vascular lesions, also with no pain and no down time. Usually three to five treatments are needed depending on your skin condition. It is a no-downtime treatment that targets brown spots and other problems that result from sun damage. It also improves rosacea and spider veins on the nose and cheeks. Photofacial can be used on just about any part of the body, including the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands. Usually, three to five treatments are needed, depending on your skin condition.

Medical Grade Chemical Peels

A chemical peel can correct and soften facial flaws, including fine lines, wrinkles, skin and pigmentation problems, as well as acne scars. A chemical peel can be performed in several different concentrations using either a mild or stronger solution depending on the desired cosmetic goals. A full face treatment can take up to an hour to perform, and will require the use of sunscreen for several months after treatment.  For optimal results, multiple treatments may be recommended.  Schedule your complimentary skin analysis to receive a peel treatment plan personalized for you to help you achieve your goals.  

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a professional skin care treatment that will smooth the overall texture of the face, while improving circulation to the face. Whether you have fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, rough skin, or acne, microdermabrasion can exfoliate those problems away and remove the dead cells, revitalizing the skin.

The Microdermabrasion Treatment

Below the top layer of skin (called the stratum corneum) are several layers of more moisturized skin cells that are protected by the stratum corneum. Using the latest diamond tip technology (no crystal mess) to buff away the top layer of cells, microdermabrasion speeds cell turnover so that newer, smoother skin cells below the stratum corneum can be brought to the top surface of the skin. These cells have more collagen, more moisture, and look more revitalized, which will rejuvenate the overall appearance of your face.

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a procedure that eliminates unwanted hair throughout the body. It may be used on many different areas of the body, including the upper lip, eyebrows, legs, bikini line, underarms, back, arms, chest or abdomen. Both men and women are candidates for laser hair removal.

The Laser Hair Removal Treatment

By heating the dark areas of the follicle and damaging them, the laser treatment disables the hair follicle from producing more hair growth. Usually three-to-six laser hair removal treatments will be needed depending on how light your skin is, and how dark your hair is. During your laser hair removal appointment, you will feel a slight stinging sensation, much like the snap of a rubber band against the skin. In order to make you more comfortable, we may use the Zimmer Cool Air during your treatment to minimize the laser sensation. Areas of the face may need more treatment than others, such as the legs and back. Laser hair removal is performed at our office near McKinney and Plano, Texas about once every six to eight weeks to start and then less frequently after your first couple appointments.

After Laser Hair Removal

After your appointment, you should avoid the sun for several weeks, because your skin will be sensitive to light. You should also avoid waxing the area but can continue to shave as needed. After each treatment, your skin in the treatment area will continue to become smoother and hair free.

Botox® Cosmetic, Dermal Fillers and Kybella®

While none of us can avoid the aging process, there are many treatments that can help you look as young as you feel.  Frown lines and crow’s feet around the eyes are usually some of the first signs of facial aging.  Loss of fullness in the face and lips are another common concern in the aging process as well as stubborn fat under the chin. Dr. Smart offers several non-invasive treatments to patients seeking facial rejuvenation to improve these common aging issues including Botox® Cosmetic, dermal fillers and Kybella®.  With these treatments, individually or in combination, Dr. Smart can help you restore the fullness to the face and fill lines and wrinkles.

Botox® Cosmetic is used to minimize the frown lines and wrinkles around the eyes.  BOTOX® Cosmetic has become one of the most popular anti-aging therapies in recent years thanks to its many benefits, and Dr. Ken Smart can perform a supremely comfortable and convenient BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment.  Patients can come in for a quick appointment and leave looking rejuvenated and refreshed.   

Dermal fillers are commonly used to replace volume in the face, areas such as the cheeks, the smile lines and the entire area around the mouth.  They are also used for lip augmentation to give a fuller and more youthful appearance. We offer a wide array of dermal fillers that are formulated specifically for different areas of the face.  These can be used alone, individually to target specific areas, or multiple fillers used can be used simultaneously targeting different areas to help you achieve your goals.  Let Dr. Smart analyze your facial concerns and recommend a personalized treatment plan of dermal fillers for you.  Dermal fillers offered by Dr. Smart include Juvederm®, Voluma® Volbella®, Restylane®, and Sculptra® and are great options for our Allen and Frisco, Texas-area patients seeking facial rejuvenation without surgery.

Kybella® is an injectable medication that can reduce stubborn fat below the chin (submental fat) without the need for surgery. Kybella® treatment contains deoxycholic acid, which occurs naturally in the body, playing a key role in breaking down and absorbing dietary fat. Each Kybella® treatment plan is customized to the patient, and will consist of one to six treatment sessions, scheduled at least one month apart.
