When most people think about cosmetic dermatology, they picture smoother skin, fewer wrinkles and a glowing complexion. But the truth is, we can do much more than rejuvenate your face — today’s treatments can enhance and restore skin tone, texture and confidence from head to toe.

Whether you’ve had a chemical peel, laser treatment, microneedling, or injectables, your post-procedure skincare routine plays a vital role in protecting your investment — and your skin. Proper care helps maximize results, prevent complications, and promote healthy, radiant skin long after your treatment.

Why unwanted hair happens Hair growth is driven by genetics and hormones. For many people the hair you don’t like is simply inherited (family pattern). In others, excess or coarse hair in a “male-pattern” distribution (upper lip, chin, chest, back) may reflect increased androgen (male hormone) exposure or conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and noticed persistent red spots or fine lines that seem to deepen over time, you’re not alone. These are some of the most common skin concerns we hear from patients. The good news? Modern laser technology, like Fraxel®, offers a safe and effective way to refresh your skin and restore a smoother, more even appearance.
