First of all, I want to thank you for the wonderful reception that we’ve received from new and established patients at our new Katy/Cinco Ranch clinic. We are delighted to be part of this growing community and look forward to engaging more with our new hometown in 2014. Our upcoming events are on the back.

Our winter Skinny shares our insights on some of the most exciting and effective cosmetic dermatology treatments and combination therapies we offer. Our first article is by Dr. Jennifer Peterson, who joined us in Katy in January. Dr. Peterson is a fellowship trained laser expert who last year was voted one of our area’s Top Doctors by Houstonia magazine. She shares with you the benefits of combining Photofacial and fractionated laser resurfacing to address facial photoaging. Next, Dr. Syed Ali discusses the transformative effects of combining our most effective skin tightening procedure, Ultherapy®, and our newest filler, Voluma XC™. Facial rejuvenation is our biggest cosmetic treatment area, and tightening and lifting loose facial skin with these procedures can turn back the clock to a fresher, younger looking you.

We’ve been doing permanent hair reduction since we entered the cosmetic dermatology arena in 1997, and we pride ourselves on having the latest, greatest and most comfortable treatment around. Maria Antesoda, RN, one of our Katy natives, has performed thousands of these procedures since she joined us in 2000. In her article, Maria talks about the benefits of this popular procedure and how our newest hair removal device, the Vectus™, is the best she’s ever used.

I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year, and if one of your resolutions is to enjoy healthy and beautiful skin, come see us in our beautiful new location.

When we look at our skin in the mirror, we can see there is not just a single change to our skin surface that makes it appear older. Instead, there are a multitude of changes which occur as part of the aging process and sun exposure. These changes hallmark what dermatologists call “photoaging”. Brown spots, sallowness, rough texture, increased redness, broken blood vessels, enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles all comprise photoaging. Unfortunately, there is not a single laser that can effectively treat all the signs of photoaging.

To overcome this challenge, I use a combination of lasers, Lumenis’ M22™ intense pulsed light (IPL) and new ResurFX™, together on the same day to effectively improve multiple signs of photoaging. The M22 IPL, known as our Photofacial procedure, works by delivering pulses of light to the skin surface to target melanin found in increased amounts within brown spots and hemoglobin, a molecule contained in red blood cells, to target broken blood vessels and redness. Using this technology, the M22 IPL lessens the appearance of broken blood vessels, redness, brown spots and large pores.

The ResurFX is a fractionated laser device which creates fine columns of heat in the top layers of the skin which stimulates increased collagen production and ultimately improves the appearance of fine lines, large pores, rough skin texture and sallowness. These fine, microscopic columns also create tiny channels, which allow the skin to more effectively remove excess brown pigment from beneath the skin surface and thus further improve the appearance of brown spots and irregular skin tone. This combined treatment can achieve better, quicker results by addressing the multiple causes of photoaging in the same visit.

For a typical facial treatment, we perform the M22 IPL Photofacial first followed by the ResurFX laser resurfacing. The whole treatment typically takes less than 30 minutes. Prior and during the procedures we take steps to keep you comfortable. You can expect a few days of mild to moderate redness and swelling following your laser therapy. Makeup can be used the following day so downtime is usually minimal. I recommend a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart depending upon the severity of my patient’s sun damage.

If you’d like to achieve a fresher, rejuvenated look for your skin in less time, call and schedule a consultation with me or one of my colleagues so we can customize the combined treatment that will be right for you.

Aging Gracefully: A Case Studyby Syed O. Ali, MD

Envejeciendo con Gracia: Un Estudio by Syed O. Ali, MD

Aging gracefully is a goal that many of my patients want to achieve. In a sense, the cosmetic aspect of our profession is like being a clock-winder, winding back the clock of aging, thereby giving my patients a rejuvenated natural look. As such, my colleagues and I are always exploring different combinations to get the most rejuvenated look for you. In some cases you may need laser resurfacing, and in others Botox® Cosmetic and fillers will do the trick. Most recently we did a patient with one of my new go-to combination treatments, Ultherapy® and Voluma XC™. Our ideal patient for this particular combination is a person who is starting to experience volume loss in the cheeks and is starting to see sagging skin due to a lifetime of sun exposure and gravity. As you can see from the before picture below, this patient, who is in her early 70s, is experiencing both these symptoms.

We started this patient’s treatment with an Ultherapy session. Ultherapy is the only FDA-approved device for lifting and tightening skin. With Ultherapy, we can tighten and lift using safe ultrasound waves in a single comfortable outpatient session. The best part is that there is minimal downtime. It is the perfect treatment for lifting the brows and cheeks (1), eliminating jowls, re-defining the jawline, tightening redundant neck tissue (2) and smoothing wrinkles. Then 6 months later we followed up with Voluma XC to restore some of her lost volume.

Voluma XC is the newest of the hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers released by Allergan®, the makers of Botox Cosmetic and Juvéderm®. HA is a natural substance found in your skin and is used to refill lost volume due to the sun, shifting fat pads and aging. It is particularly great for restoring the fullness of the cheeks (3). Voluma XC is an exciting product; not only does it yield amazing and immediate results but it also can last up to a year longer than other HA fillers. It is the first and only filler FDA-approved for deep injection in the cheek area to correct age-related volume loss. The result of these two together can be quite dramatic.

On Saturday, February 8th Dr. Peterson and I will be having a Saturday Seminar on Facial Rejuvenation from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. followed by short free consultations. It’s a great way to learn about the science of aging as well as what dermatology has to offer. Call to reserve your spot. Hope to see you then!

Envejecimiento con gracia es una meta que muchos de mis pacientes quieren lograr. En cierto sentido, el aspecto estético de nuestra profesión se enfoca en retroceder el tiempo; constantemente girando hacia atrás el reloj del envejecimiento. Mis colegas y yo siempre estámos experimentando con diferentes combinaciones para obtener resultados con una apariencia natural. En algunos casos, puede ser necesario usar un tratamiento con láser y en otros, una combinación de Botox® Cosmetic con rellenos faciales. Recientemente tratamos a una paciente con una de mis nuevas combinaciones favoritas, Ultherapy® y Voluma XC™. Nuestro paciente ideal para esta combinación particular es una persona que está empezando a ver la pérdida de volumen en las mejillas y flacidez de la piel debido a toda una vida de exposición al sol y la gravedad. Como se puede ver en la foto de abajo, esta

paciente, que tiene 71 años de edad, demuestra esos dos síntomas.

Empezamos el tratamiento de esta paciente con una sesión de Ultherapy. Ultherapy es el único dispositivo aprobado por la FDA para el levantamiento y reafirmación de la piel. Con Ultherapy podemos reafirmar la piel utilizando ondas de ultrasonido

seguras en una sesión comoda. La mejor parte del tratamiento es que no requiere cirugía ni tiempo de reposo. Ultherapy es particularmente

efectivo para el levantamiento de las cejas (1), las mejillas y papada, redefinición de la línea de la mandíbula, el cuello redundante (2), y el estiramiento de los tejidos y suavización de las

arrugas. Para esta paciente en particular, despues de 30 días de Ultherapy, se siguió el tratamiento con Voluma XC para la restauración del volumen facial.

Voluma XC es el nuevo ácido hialurónico (HA) diseñado por Allergan® , el fabricante de Botox Cosmetic y Juvederm®. HA es una sustancia natural que se encuentra en la piel y se utiliza para restaurar el volumen debido a cambios attribuidos al sol, movimientos en las capas de grasa facial y el envejecimiento. Particularmente, HA es ideal para la restauración de las mejillas como se puede ver en las fotos de nuestra patiente (3). Voluma XC es un producto excelente, no sólo produce resultados sorprendentes e inmediatos, pero tambien dura hasta un año más que otros rellenos HA. Voluma XC es el primer y único material de relleno aprobado por la FDA para la inyección profunda de las mejillas. El resultado de

combinar estos dos tratmientos puede ser sorprendente!

El Sábado, 8 de Febrero, la Dra. Peterson y yo vamos a tener un seminario sobre Rejuvenecimiento Facial. El seminario empieza

a las 9 a.m. y termina a las 11 a.m. y despues hay consultas cortas gratuitas. Es una gran manera de aprender sobre la

ciencia del envejecimiento y todo lo que dermatología tiene para ofrecer. Llame ahora

para reservar su lugar. Espero verlos pronto!

With nearly 13 years of experience performing laser hair removal at our practice and 16 years overall, I can honestly say that the Vectus™ is the most exciting new machine for this treatment out in the marketplace. The Vectus provides faster and more comfortable treatments with its unique larger, flatter cooled applicator. Like other machines in the same class, the Vectus laser targets the pigment in the hair follicle and destroys it without harming the surrounding skin. However, unlike its predecessors and current competitors, this laser’s comfort level is so high that topical anesthetic is rarely necessary. Treatment times have also decreased significantly; it’s nearly over before you even realize it’s begun, and there’s no downtime.

We are able to treat most skin types, including very light to moderately dark skin, most hair colors and almost all areas of the body. Permanent laser hair reduction is achieved on average in 6 to 8 treatments spaced anywhere between 4 to 6 or 6 to 8 weeks apart. If you are considering permanent hair reduction, winter time is the perfect time to start so that you are ready to go before beach season begins! It’s also the perfect time to treat because your skin is paler now and the laser can deliver more of its energy to the melanin in the hair follicle.

Permanent hair reduction is such a time-saver and so many of my patients over the years have loved it. And with our new Vectus, it’s quicker and more comfortable than ever. If you want to get rid of unwanted hair, schedule your free consultation now.

Holy Mole-y! by Suzanne Bruce, MD

We all remember going through that phase of wanting to get that golden tan. It felt so good to feel the warm sun on our skin and it was even better to look in the mirror and see our rosy cheeks and pretty glow. Unfortunately, our love affair with the sun is something that does not go unpunished. Hopefully by now, most of us have heard about the ugly reality behind that golden tan.
