The decision to get any type of facelift is a big one. And it rarely happens overnight. More often than not, our patients have been toying with the idea for a few years before finally picking up the phone to make an appointment for a QuickLift facelift consultation.
Does this scenario sound familiar?
You catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror—and (yikes!) you DON’T recognize that person. Or, you Read more

Caveat emptor! Not all “Botox” is created equal.
Botox users beware! In a recent depiction of “you get what you pay for,” we learned that more than 350 US medical practices just received warning letters from the FDA about where they were buying their supplies of Botox.
Why? The FDA discovered that these practices were obtaining their supplies from foreign or unlicensed suppliers—and NOT Read more

Every so often I read a book about age, and whoever’s writing it says it’s great to be old. It’s great to be wise and sage and mellow; it’s great to be at the point where you understand just what matters in life. I can’t stand people who say things like this. What can they be thinking? Don’t they have necks?

As if fighting the hands of time wasn’t bad enough. Now, we’re fighting the unflattering angles of FaceTime, Facebook and SKYPE. There’s been a recent upsurge in both men and women seeking a new image of themselves—with a social media twist. ABC News recently reported that people are seeking a ”Facebook Facelift” (a chin augmentation or implant) after dissatisfaction with how they look on today’s social networking sites and video chat applications. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), chin augmentations have increased 71 percent in the last year. Read more

As the blogger for The Skin Center Medical Spa, I was asked to be the LIVE demonstration patient for our Pittsburgh CoolSculpting body contouring launch so that I could share my experience with you. With CoolSculpting, Pittsburgh clients can precisely target stubborn fat WITHOUT liposuction, surgery, needles or lasers. This is the first completely non-invasive fat-reduction treatment available—ever.
My CoolSculpting treatment was performed on May 17th, 2012. We targeted my less-than-fab-abs. For the first few weeks the treated area (lower abdomen) felt pretty numb. This odd sensation, along with some very slight swelling and tingling sensations, gradually subsided. Read more

Many of us know of someone who had the old-fashioned varicose vein treatments that often entailed painful stripping surgery―complete with general anesthesia, an overnight hospital stay and scarring after treatment. So… when the relatives of these patients find themselves with similar vein issues, the suggestion of treatment is often met with an emphatic, “NO THANK YOU!” If you’ve heard these horror stories and you are beset with your own problem leg veins, you’ll be happy to know that today’s treatments are NOT your mom’s or grandmother’s treatments. With Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) and Sclerotherapy, today’s technology is radically different from the painful vein stripping of yesteryear. Here, we separate fact from fiction about vein disorders and today’s treatments:

If you watched ABC’s 20/20 on Friday, February 24th, 2012, you’d notice at least two welcome changes relative to cosmetic surgery and the way we view it. First, remarkable enhancements can be made to one’s appearance through new technologies such as Ultherapy®—without the need for cutting. And second, gone are the days of nips, tucks and injections in shhhh…secret.
Once rarely talked about in public, it seems that every time we turn on the television, browse the web or open a magazine we are privy to the latest revelations in cosmetic technologies—with plenty of patients openly sharing their stories.

We recently mentioned Dr. Brandy’s love of Dermal Infusion with the MicroDermal Roller on our Facebook page. Many of our Facebook fans wanted to know more about the device―so, we are happy to cover this collagen-building treatment (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy) in more detail, as promised.
The MicroDermal Roller is a hand-held device with over 200 very fine bristles or needles. This gadget is designed for home use. By gently rolling it over your face, the bristles creates microscopic channels in the skin, allowing for increased absorption of your favorite topical serums, lotions and prescription-grade Retin-A.
