Non-Surgical Nose Job - NEW!

Unwanted HairThe results of a rhinoplasty take up to 6 months to be realized, and can be very unpredictable. No matter how talented the surgeon, he or she is always relying on the patients healing capability. The final result also depends on the patient not having physical contact for at lease 6 weeks; otherwise the shape of the nose could be altered. Thus, sports and other contact activities are limited. The cost of all this discomfort and unpredictability is anywhere from $5,000.00 TO $10,000.00.

The advent of dermal fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm has changed everything. These products have been used successfully over the last 5 years to eradicate lines in the face, fill in folds, elevate scars and augment cheek bones and jaw lines.

Unwanted Hair

Unwanted HairPermanent hair reduction is now available to patients of all skin types.  Many achieve satisfactory results with 5 treatments. The use of the Zimmer Cooler makes this procedure practically painless to many and is available at DermaCure and very few other offices. At DermaCure we utilize the latest technology including the Cutera ProWave and the CoolGlide 1064 laser.

Leg and Facial Veins

Leg & Facial VeinsAlthough we are unable to treat bulging or painful varicose veins, DermaCure can easily rid you of spider and reticular veins on the legs, face and chest.  Our CoolGlide 1064 yag laser can effectively remove facial veins in one treatment and leg veins in three. The procedure is less painful and safer than injecting these same veins. Cherry Hemangiomas (small red dots) that appear on many areas of the body are also treatable, usually in one session.

Sun Damage

Sun DamageAlmost everyone living in the Santa Clarita Valley has experienced damage to their skin because of sun exposure.  This can show up as freckles, brown spots, keratosis (red scaly areas), fine lines and poor texture. At DermaCure we offer four levels of treatment for these issues.

The Obagi NuDerm system is a combination of products used over a 4-6 month period that can address sun damage. 

The V.I. Peel contains a synergistic blend of powerful yet medical strength ingredients suitable for all skin types to accomplish its anti-aging results.

LimeLight is our programmable Fotofacial that is excellent in treating brown spots and texture issues. 

Fraxel is an amazing laser that addresses all sun damage issues with little or no down time on any skin type.  It is the gold standard of lasers.

Acne Scars

Acne ScaringFrom superficial scarring to deep ice pick scars, treating this condition has baffled physicians for years.  DermaCure now offers two different lasers for treating this condition and surgical scars. 

Laser Genesis is a collagen building laser that can reduce acne scars in 5 treatments by inducing collagen production in the mid dermal layer.

Fraxel not only stimulates collagen production but actually resurfaces the skin thus removing as well as filling up the existing scars

Active Acne

Active AcneActive acne is an emotionally and physically disabling chronic problem for teens and adults.  At DermaCure we offer solutions for the most stubborn acne.

Obagi’s Clenziderm is a complete system that includes micronized benzoyl peroxide for better absorption than other products and salicylic acid.

V.I. Peel has proven invaluable in treating some of our worst cases including cystic acne.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Fine Lines & WrinklesFine lines are a result of both facial movements and aging.  There are several methods of treating fine lines depending on location and depth.

Botox blocks the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles and is best used around the forehead, eyes and upper lip.

Dermal fillers can be used to fill in fine lines especially around the mouth, cheeks and chin.

Laser Genesis can lessen fine lines in the face by building collagen.

Fraxel reduces or removes fine lines by resurfacing the skin and building collagen.

Skin Texture & Large Pores

Skin Texture & Large PoresAs we age and lose collagen our skin becomes more lax, therefore, the pores appear larger.  At the same time the skin can develop a crepe paper like appearance leading to a rough texture.  The following are DermaCure’s suggestions.

Laser Genesis stimulates the fibroblasts in our skin to generate new collagen.  This increases the skins elasticity improving texture and pore size.

Fraxel is the ultimate laser in this situation.  By replacing up to 30% of the skin with each treatment and building collagen at the same time, it gives remarkable results.

Obagi NuDerm system uses specific products that work synergistically to not only remove pigmentation but also build collagen and exfoliate superficial skin layers, thus improving texture and pore size.

V.I. Peel uses a synergistic blend of medical grade ingredients to exfoliate and regenerate the skin resulting in improved texture and minimized pore size

Skin Laxity & Sagging

Skin Laxity & SaggingWith aging, everyone loses elasticity and we lose the ability to replace collagen around the age of 35.  This causes our skin to sag leading to jowls, turkey necks and sagging cheeks.

Titan is a remarkable infrared light procedure that heats the deep dermis in a uniform distribution thus stimulating collagen formation.  This collagen formation can tighten the skin of the jaw line, under the chin, the abdomen and the arms.  This procedure is entirely safe and comfortable.

Cellulite & Unwanted Fat

Cellulite & Unwanted Fat80% of women over the age of 20 suffer from cellulite.  Other problems of unwanted fat such as love handles, saddle bags and muffin tops haunt many patients both men and women.  These issues can now be addressed safely and effectively with an FDA approved treatment.

VelaShape™ with its elōs technology can safely and quickly (within 5 weeks) re-shape your body and reduce cellulite.

Melasma

MelasmaMelasma is a very common type of pigmentation often called the “mask of pregnancy”.  It is hormonally influenced and definitely affected by sun exposure.  This is a difficult problem for many patients who have tried many remedies.  DermaCure offers several treatments.

Fraxel is FDA approved for treating melasma for all skin types.  Up to 90% of patients see 75% to 100% response. 

Obagi NuDerm system has proven effective in many cases and can be used on all skin types.

V.I. Peel is very effective in treating melasma.  This peel is done in a series to get optimal results.

Rosacea & Facial Redness

Rosacea & Facial RednessRosacea is a chronic skin condition that often starts with excessive flushing in response to heat, sun or irritating chemicals (found in some cosmetics).  It is accompanied many times by small spider like veins on the face and nose and can progress to “adult acne” with pustules and discoloration. 

DermaCure offers excellent solutions for rosacea and facial redness. 

Laser Genesis is effective in treating rosacea and redness in a series of 6 treatments done 2 weeks apart.

LimeLight Fotofacial is effective in treating rosacea and redness but is most often packaged with Laser Genesis for the ultimate control of rosacea.
