Fall or winter is the perfect time for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), the non-laser light treatment that corrects and improves a number of facial skin imperfections: sun damage, small broken capillaries, rosacea and an uneven, mottled complexion. Most patients experience dramatic improvement after only one treatment but several procedures may be required, depending upon the damage.
We’ve looked to SkinCeuticals as the leading developer of topical vitamin C since 1997 when Duke professor Dr. Sheldon Pinnell’s patented antioxidant formula became commercialized. What has followed is a succession of improvements in the original formulation, each designed to prevent and protect against sun damage and its effects: fine lines and wrinkles, uneven pigment, and lack of skin tone.
Are you looking for a non-surgical way to tighten loose skin on the face and neck?
When you are considering cosmetic procedures, you probably are focused mainly on your face. Yet our hands can betray our age as much as our necks. As we age, our hands lose firmness and volume and begin to look bony and fragile with visible veins and joints, thin skin texture and often brown “age spots” from sun exposure.
Exposure to ultraviolet light from sunlight accounts for nearly all of the symptoms of premature skin aging. Other skin changes, once believed to be caused by natural aging, are now known to be a result of prolonged exposure to UV radiation, called photoaging.

As many of you know, Dr. Magilke is on the national Medical Education Faculty for Bioform Medical, the makers of Radiesse. At the last meeting he learned a new technique for mixing local anesthetic with the Radiesse in one syringe.
