Get Rid of Unwanted Hair Once and For All!

Let’s face it… no one enjoys daily or weekly shaving, plucking or waxing on any part of the body!  With today’s technology, it’s easy to get rid of unwanted hair for good.  Laser hair removal can be used on the face, underarms, bikini, legs, arms, back, buttocks, abdomen and breasts.  This easy, no-downtime treatment is one of the most popular laser procedure in the United States.

Laser hair removal is available for most skin types as well as most hair types including lighter brown and finer hair.  The advanced cooling system allows for a comfortable treatment and even enhances the treatment’s safety and efficacy.  While laser hair removal is mostly done to stop hair growth, many women and men find it helpful to eliminate painful, unattractive ingrown hairs. Also, since the follicle is destroyed during the procedure, patients do not have to worry about stubble or dark spots at the follicle.

Since laser hair removal is very popular these days, the procedure is usually available at med spas or large laser operation centers. Dr. Lupo warns patients that these places have no physician supervision and are no place to get a medical laser procedure. At times, medical causes of excessive facial hair are being overlooked. It is better to get a consult by a qualified board certified dermatologist who will look at you as a patient first and ask the questions that will alert for possible hormonal problems.

If you are fed up with pesky prickles, now is the time to get rid of them once and for all.  Multiple treatment sessions are necessary to eliminate all of the hair as it cycle through the individual growth stages, so schedule a consultation today to get your skin smooth before next year’s bathing suit season rolls around again.

Any patient who receives a laser hair removal treatment by October 31, 2014, will receive 10% off of the first treatment for one area.  Don’t forget to mention that you saw this in online.

Skin Care Treatments for the Man on the Go

In recent years, technology for cosmetic treatments has become so extensive that individuals can really pick and chose a treatment that perfectly suits their lifestyle and budget.  While the majority of our cosmetic patients are women, we have definitely found that men are becoming more interested in aesthetic treatments because now they are able to find exactly what they are looking for: a non-surgical, no-downtime procedure with gradual results and little to no pain.

These days, men are caring more and more about their appearance as they hit the gym, hair salon and even nail salon!  Here at the Lupo Center, we are fully equipped to tackle the majority of men’s skin care needs.  From injectables and skin tightening to skin resurfacing and laser hair removal, we are able to help men look more rested and refreshed while helping them gain more self-confidence. Here are some of the treatments that men find most beneficial to meet their needs:

Injectables

Injectables: Age, sun exposure and lifestyle can all take a toll on our skin, but luckily we can turn to Botox and fillers for an easy fix.  Both types of injectables have a variety of benefits on their own, but together they can really improve pre-mature aging.  Botox works to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles, while fillers, such as Juvederm, Juvederm Voluma, Radiesse, Restylane and Sculptra, help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, folds and volume loss.  All injectable treatments are quick and easy with very subtle results.  Our doctors use the smallest needles available as well as numbing cream on the spot of the injection so that treatments are as pain-free as possible.

Skin Tightening and Body Contouring

21st 03

Skin Tightening and Body Contouring:  Men can spend hours and hours at the gym but still find that some areas of concern cannot be fixed with just a workout.  Today, men can find help with our skin tightening and body contouring devices.  For skin tightening, we offer Exilis Elite and Ulthera to tighten, tone and lift loose skin on most parts of the body including the jowls, neck, eyebrows, abdomen, arms and thighs.  To help eliminate unwanted fat and contour the body, we offer Exilis, Vanquish, VASER Shape or SmoothShapes.  All six devices give patients different options for a fast and effective way to improve those hard to fix areas when diet and exercise alone are not working.

Skin Resurfacing

21st 04

Skin Resurfacing: Men are typically more lax than women when it comes to sun protection; therefore, they have more signs of premature aging and sun damage.  Our skin resurfacing devices help to treat texture, discoloration, brown spots, fine lines, redness and pores leaving patients with a smoother complexion and a more youthful glow.  Our no-downtime skin resurfacing devices include Laser Genesis, Excel V, IPL and Clear+Brilliant.

Laser Hair Removal

21st 05

Laser Hair Removal: Let’s face it… no man enjoys shaving, waxing or plucking!  One of the most practical luxuries you can give yourself is laser hair removal.  Laser hair removal not only helps to reduce excessive body hair but also eliminates painful ingrown hair.

Combination Filler Treatment with Juvederm and Juvederm Voluma

Since Allergan released their newest filler product, Juvederm Voluma, a few months ago, we have been getting lots questions about what makes this filler different from Juvederm and how can the two fillers work together to achieve optimal results.

These two fillers are different in that they are used to treat different parts of the face in different ways. The more commonly known filler, Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus, has been available since 2006 and is one of the most popular fillers for fine lines, folds and lips.   Juvederm Voluma is the first and only FDA-approved filler to instantly add volume to the cheek area causing it to re-contour and “lift.” While Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus smoothes lines and folds, Juvederm Voluma improves a tired and gaunt appearance.

Having a combination treatment of Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus and Juvederm Voluma can provide better overall facial rejuvenation results in some patients. If the fine lines are filled without first correcting volume and proportion, the lines may be less visible at first, but the patient’s overall look may not improve as desired. In many cases, if a patient’s “foundation” is first corrected with Juvederm Voluma, their treatment of Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus for lines and folds will lasts longer.

If you are interested in learning more about Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus and Juvederm Voluma or the combination treatment, schedule a consultation with one of our doctors: (504) 288-2381. Save $125 when you receive one syringe Juvederm Voluma and another syringe of Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus or Juvederm Voluma. No pre-purchase. Must receive combination filler treatment during the same visit. Offer expires August 29.

Don’t forget that you can also earn Brilliant Distinctions points with any Juvederm Ultra/Ultra Plus and Juvederm Voluma treatment for future savings!
