Find the skin care solutions you need to age gracefully from an aesthetic physician near me Lake Oswego Let’s first look at when it’s a good time to find an aesthetic center near Lake Oswego for anti-aging treatments

  • If you have loose or sagging skin along the neck, face, arms, or stomach
  • If you have loose skin following an operation
  • If you are not interested in a surgical procedure

Anti-aging aesthetic physician near Lake Oswego addresses aging skin problems

Skin laxity is a completely normal and common occurrence for both men and women. As we get older: age, genetics, nutrition, lifestyle habits, sun exposure, and stress can all play a role in minimizing collagen and elastin production. When these fibers break down, the result is laxity. As we continue to age, gravity also begins to play a role, causing loose skin to sag further downward.

Dr. Maddox will work with you to determine what procedure is best, taking into consideration the quality of the skin, and the area being treated. At Thrive Portland, we offer several options for patients who want to restore youthfulness to the skin. We may suggest one of the following:

Ultherapy

Ultherapy uses ultrasound to stimulate the body’s production of elastin and collagen. The in-office treatment tightens skin as well as minimizing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The results appear gradually over the course of several weeks and can last for many years. Patients generally only need one Ultherapy treatment. Most physicians advise patients to wait at least 6 months before considering an additional treatment.

Exilis

Exilis is a form of radiofrequency treatment that heats the deep layers of tissue beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production and promote the body’s natural healing process to tighten and firm skin. At the same time, Exilis cools the outer layer of skin, making the procedure comfortable for patients. Exilis can be used on various parts of the body and usually requires three to six sessions for optimal results.

Dermal Fillers or Botox

Many patients who are dealing with loose skin also express an interest in addressing volume loss or fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Dermal filler and Botox injections can be a complementary solution to laser skin tightening, allowing patients to address all the visible signs of aging.

Benefits of non-surgical anti-aging skin care treatment

  1.   It’s non-invasive. That means there are no incisions, no stitches, no anesthesia.
  2.   It’s quick. Treatment is usually done within an hour.
  3.   It lasts. Results from non-surgical skin tightening will gradually appear over three to six months as collagen production increases. These results often last for a year, or even longer for some patients.
  4.   It works on a variety of patients. Non-surgical skin tightening is good for both men and women that have mild to moderate skin laxity.
  5.   It’s versatile. The different treatment methods can be effective on most areas of the body where loose skin is a concern.
  6.   It utilizes the body’s natural processes. By targeting the deep layers of skin where collagen is formed, non-surgical tightening promotes the repair of existing collagen along with the production of new collagen.
  7.   It’s safe. Non-surgical skin tightening has been used safely in hundreds of thousands of treatments.
  8.   It requires no downtime. Normal daily activities can be resumed immediately following the procedure.
  9.   It’s affordable. Non-surgical skin tightening sessions are much less expensive than plastic surgery.

miraDry® TREATMENT

FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Say goodbye to armpit hair and underarm sweating. Mirror Smooth (miraDry??) will save your day.

miraDry® TREATMENT FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING

You shave it. You wax it, you laser it. Heck, you might even dye it pink. Talking about armpit hair. Now some people are saying you can microwave it away once and for all. We’re revealing a new treatment right now and our procedure room. Take it away, Doctor Ashton.

Hi guys So, I’m back here with doctor sheila Nazarian, board certified plastic surgeon and our patient Aaron. You’re going to be demonstrating this new microwave procedure to hit axillary hair, but before we get to that, tell, tell me why this hair bothered you, Aaron? Because I mean, you’re blonde, you wouldn’t mind.

I’m a personal trainer. I spend 95% of my day in a tank top in the gym or in a bikini and shaving every day is such a pain. No one likes to do it. I tried laser hair removal. It doesn’t work. If you have blonde hair and darker skin. So, I heard about mirror smooth So, thought I’d give it a try.

And you said it’s your game, okay, So, doctor Nazarian,

Yeah,

Go ahead and lie back Aaron. So, as you start working tell us a little bit about this technology. Who’s a good candidate for it and how? Does it work?

Well, the beauty of this technology is that everyone is a good candidate. Any skin colour, any hair colour? I’ve actually had the procedure performed on myself, didn’t get any hyperpigmentation from it.

So, you numbed Aaron up before we started, right?

Arron’s been numbed already. We’ve placed a temporary tattoo which basically gives us little tick marks. It’s really paint by numbers at that point and we use the microwave technology of mirror smooth to remove not only 70% of her hair with one treatment, but also the sweat and odour glands are also eliminated. So, it’s basically a little suction and some you know heat is applied, but because she’s numb there’s no pain.

You feel anything?
Fine, just a little pull,

Yeah.

And So, how many treatments typically does it take to really get a good effect?

So, 80% of people really only need one treatment. You’re going to get an 82% reduction in the sweat and odour glands and a 70% reduction in the hair growth. Which, if you’ve ever had laser hair, you know you need multiple treatments in order to get anywhere close to 70%.

So, what’s the cost range for something like this?

This that’s a great question. So, the first treatment is around 2000 dollars, but it’s, but if you think about how many laser hair removal treatments to do. I mean, it really is a great benefit and also laser hair doesn’t remove the sweat and odour glands.

Nice, well, 2000 dollars, meaning that you could throw away all your razors for the rest of your life.
Exactly

Right,

Never have to worry about sweating in your armpits again and being musty.

No more deodorant and think of all the money you spend on deodorant over a lifetime.

That’s true.

And it takes how long to do both pitch?

We usually schedule people for an hour at a time?
An hour!

So, can you imagine an hour and you’re done.
Oh my gosh,

Yeah,

Sign me up, scoot over.

Second string.

Amazing.

The one done idea is very appealing.

Exactly, yeah.

Thanks for sharing that with us and thanks for showing us your armpits,

Thanks for having me

You’re welcome.
