WHAT COSMETIC PROCEDURES DO YOUR PATIENTS DEMAND THE MOST?

For patients seeking improvement in skin texture, tone and pigmentation, the Spectra™ laser is all the rage. In a series of noninvasive and quick treatment sessions, patients of all skin colors will benefit and see appreciable results.

WHAT PROCEDURES GRATIFY YOU THE MOST?

Personally, I am gratified when a procedure that I perform changes a life. Sometimes it is a cosmetic procedure that helps my patients feel better and more confident. Other times it is Mohs surgery, where we remove skin cancers and reconstruct the skin to restore a natural appearance.

THE LATEST ADVANCEMENTS AT OUR PRACTICEAt our state-of-the-art facility, we are simultaneously attending to both the medical needs and the cosmetic concerns of our patients. We couple treatments—for example, photodynamic therapy and intense pulsed light, which are trends that are increasingly in high demand—because our patients love pairing the two. The ability to undergo a medically necessary procedure while also benefitting from a cosmetic, anti-aging enhancement is a win-win. At Skin Secrets, our on-site cosmeceutical boutique, our skin-care professionals educate our patients on purchases of the latest anti-aging, aesthetic and UV-protective products and clothing.

ENHANCING DEFINITIONThis 54-year-old patient came to Dr. Munavalli to refine her sagging neck and double chin, and underwent tumescent liposuction of the neck with CoolLipo™ for a tighter effect.

FIRST-CLASS COMPLEXIONTo improve this 71-year-old patient’s aging skin, particularly the lines around her mouth, Dr. Munavalli performed skin resurfacing using the AcuPulseTM fractional CO2 laser.

WHAT IS YOUR CORE TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY?

At DLVSC, our patients always come first. For me, listening to my patients is most important. All our surgical treatments are always performed by a dermatologist. I believe in always being available and accessible to my patients for ongoing care.
