glowing skin with lasemd ultra

Lutronic LaseMD ULTRA is a low-downtime laser that resurfaces the skin, giving it brighter tone and improved texture. Treatments can be customized for your particular needs and schedule. ULTRA can be used anywhere on the body for treatment of fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, freckles, sun spots, non-cancerous pigmented lesions, sun damage, and even Melasma.

Lutronic ULTRA is the next generation thulium laser (improved over LaseMD). It has 20 watts of power (as opposed to LaseMD which as 5 watts of power). Therefore, treatments with ULTRA are faster and can be titrated to a more powerful strength, giving improved results.

what are the benefits of Lutronic LasemD ultra Laser?

Glowing skin with improved tone and texture for a smoother and brighter complexion is what patients rave about.

• Improved appearance of scars

• Reduce pigment and sun damage for brighter appearance of skin

• Can be used on skin anywhere on the face/body

• Low downtime

• Safe for all skin types

• Safe for use all year round

how does LaseMD ultra work?

• ULTRA is a 1927 nm wavelength laser which resurfaces the skin in the epidermis and dermis.

• ULTRA targets water instead of pigment, resulting in a more even treatment. It is less likely to cause unintentional burns than IPL which targets pigment. Thus it is safe for all skin types.

• ULTRA causes non-ablative, microscopic injuries which stimulates new collagen production, and has a fast recovery period.

What is the Ultra treatment like?

Patients can expect mild redness after the treatment, but you look great! You don’t have to worry about taking time off from work or hiding at home for an extended recovery time. You can wear 100% tinted mineral sunscreen right away to reduce the appearance of redness - our favorite is EltaMD UV Elements.

• Your provider at Rejuve Medspa may apply numbing cream prior to treatment depending on the settings and goals for your treatment. For the “Glo and Go” treatment, no numbing medication is required.

• Patients describe the Ultra treatment as a warm, tingling sensation which may vary. The treatment time may range from 10-20 minutes or longer depending on how much area is being treated.

• Immediately following the treatment, you will notice some redness which will lessen over the next day or so.

• The following 5-6 days, your skin will have a dry, sandpaper-like texture. This is normal and will resolve as your skin exfoliates, revealing fresher, clearer skin.

Clarity II Laser with Ultra Laser

Clarity II can be pared with LaseMD Ultra Laser for enhanced reduction of unwanted pigment, resulting in a brighter, smoother complexion.

HEALITE with Ultra Laser

Although the healing time with the Ultra Laser is very quick, HEALITE can further speed recovery and enhance collagen stimulation to improve overall results.

Exosomes with Ultra Laser

Exosome Regenerative Complex promotes skin cell proliferation by up to 80%, resulting in an increase in the Elastin amount of human dermal fibroblasts up to 300%. The Ultra Laser creates tiny micro channels on the skin allowing for the absorption of Exosomes to both speed recovery and boost the rejuvenating benefits of this laser treatment.

Genius RF Microneedling - Why Its So Effective For Skin Tightening and Acne Scars

After the age of 20, we lose about 1% of collagen every year. To keep skin appearing youthful and healthy, it is important to maintain abundant levels of collagen and elastin. Collagen is a protein made up of amino-acids and makes up about a third of all of the protein in your body. Collagen is often referred to as the “glue that holds everything together.” It keeps the skin elastic and firm.

Lutronic Genius RF Microneedling combines Radiofrequency with Microneedling to target multiple depths of your skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Both mechanisms of Microneedling and heating tissue with Radiofrequency causes injury to the tissue beneath the epidermis (top layer of the skin). Injury triggers the body’s natural healing cascade which in turn promotes the building of new collagen and elastin.

What does genius do?

• Builds collagen and elastin

• Tightens skin (reduces wrinkles and improves loose skin)

• Improves acne by reducing pore size and sebum (oil) production

• Improves acne scars

• Improves appearance of cellulite and stretch marks

Genius RF for Acne Scars:

Genius RF for wrinkles:

how does genius work?

There are 4 different tips to choose from depending on what target areas are desired. The face tip has 49 very fine needles which can be programmed to target specific depths. Deeper depths achieve facial contouring and fat reduction where desired (such as in the jowl’s or under eye bags). Emitting radiofrequency at more superficial depths cause skin tightening which has greater effects on reducing wrinkles. The goal of treatment with Genius is to target multiple depths to achieve various desired effects.

Genius is safe for all skin types because it avoids injury to the epidermis (top layer of skin) where the melanocytes (pigment cells) reside. Although there is still a rare chance of hyperpigmentation (dark discoloration of the skin), it is unlikely.

How Does Genius compare with Morpheus 8 or Other RF Microneedling Devices on the Market?

Genius RF Microneedling by Lutronic distinguishes itself from other RF microneedling devices on the market by the superior effectiveness of the treatments without the associated downtime. Because there are 49 needles per tip (compared with 24 needles with Morpheus 8), more energy can be emitted, producing a higher level of skin tightening. In addition, the Genius needles are finer and more flexible, causing less epidermal injury, less risk for bruising, bleeding, or scratches often seen with Morpheus 8 treatments.

Combining Genius RF Microneedling with LaseMD Ultra:

While Genius RF Microneedling affects the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production resulting in skin tightening and reduced appearance of scars, LaseMD Ultra is a resurfacing laser that works on the more superficial layers of the skin to improve fine lines/wrinkles, smooth texture, and remove unwanted pigment. Both treatments can be performed on the same day for optimal results.

Genius pre-treatment: What should I do to prepare?

Before your Genius treatment, it is important to take these steps:

• Medical Clearance and Consent: The Rejuve Medspa team will make sure to answer your questions and address any concerns.

• Stop any Retinols or Tretinoin (Retin-A) products 1 week before Genius

• Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning (wear daily sunscreen) 3-4 weeks before treatment.

• Tell your provider if you have any history of herpes simplex or shingles in the treatment area - this will require that you take anti-viral medications to prevent a break-out.

• Clean skin: avoid applying make-up, ointments or creams to the treatment area.

• Avoid aspirin or Motrin (ibuprofen) 1 day prior to Genius treatment. You may not be a candidate for Genius if you are taking blood thinners.

what can i expect during Genius treatment?

• Topical numbing medication will be applied after your skin has been thoroughly cleansed. The numbing medication is left on the skin for 1 hour before treatment begins. A section of your treatment area will be cleansed before microneedling on that section begins.

• The microneedling tip has very fine needles that make the procedure tolerable. The providers at Rejuve Medspa will answer all your questions and take you step by step through the process.

genius post-treatment: what should I do after treatment?

• Avoid any skin products or cleansers to treated area for 12 hours. Then use gentle cleanser for 2 weeks.

• Avoid any strenuous activity for 24 hours (sweating increases risk for infection).

• Avoid wearing Make-up for 2-3 days.

• Use mineral-based sun screen daily.

• Avoid excessive heat or sun exposure for 1 week.

• Avoid Tretinoin or Retinol for 1 week.

• Avoid Lasers, BBL or IPL for 4 weeks.

• Recommend DefenAge 8:1 bioserum twice daily to help regenerate new skin cells.  

• Your providers at Rejuve Medspa can answer your questions about other skin care products or concerns you may have.

what to expect after genius treatment:

• 1 day Post-Treatment: Redness and transient edema, skin begins to turn to a condition similar to before treatment.

• 3 days - 1 week Post-Treatment: Brighter skin tone and significant reduction in sebum secretion in oily skin types.

• 1 month Post-Treatment: Improvement of fine wrinkles and skin laxity.

• 1-3 months Post-Treatment: Continuous improvement of fine wrinkles, pores size, scars and skin laxity.

• Common expected skin reactions include erythema (redness), edema (swelling), transient pin-point bleeding, and very slight discomfort after treatment.  Pin-point bleeding should stop within minutes after application, discomfort within a few hours and erythema and edema gradually diminishes to normal in 1 to 3 days.

• Crusting begins to appear 1 – 2 days after treatment and sloughs off in 3 – 5 days.

• Other less common skin reactions include petechia which fade in a few days or bruising (purpura) which can take up to a week to disappear.

• Other skin reactions include irritation, itching, and burning sensation. These typically subside in a few hours to 1 day, but may get aggravated with heat or sweating.  If these reactions continue consider evaluating for possible infection, changing their skin care regimen and/or short-term use of mild topical steroid.

when should i follow up?

• It is best to wait 4-6 weeks before seeking another Genius treatment.

RHA - Luxe Designer Filler

RHA is a new designer filler that integrates seamlessly for a natural appearance with dynamic movement.

How is RHA different from other fillers?

RHA is the only FDA approved hyaluronic acid filler for dynamic folds and wrinkles. The RHA collection of filler is created more like your own natural hyaluronic acid (HA). It is the latest innovation in the HA dermal filler technology.

Other fillers such as Juvederm (Volbella, Vollure, Voluma) contain large amounts of chemical crosslinking which helps to retain their shape and last longer. RHA has longer HA chains and the least amount of chemical crosslinking which gives it more stretchability and offers a more natural look, especially during facial movements.

RHA Redensity for Smoker’s Lines:

RHA Redensity is the only dermal filler that can be injected superficially into the skin to address fine lines and wrinkles. This allows the reduction of wrinkles without an overdone puffy look.

How to Prevent and Remove Scars - What are the Latest Advances?

Scar appearance improves over time, but why wait? Why not prevent a scar before it occurs? But how? Let’s take a deep dive into the latest advances in scar prevention and scar removal.

Clinical Expertise in wound care

Dr. Kaplan has over 20 years experience as a former board-certified emergency physician, specializing in aesthetic and regenerative medicine since 2019. Her experience managing complex trauma and surgical complications piqued her interest in alternative methods of treating wounds, particularly in preventing and revising scars non-surgically. She provides treatment options that enhance the traditional methods of wound care to speed recovery for optimal outcomes.

When do I start scar prevention?

As soon as possible! Early intervention is the key to successful scar prevention. Whether a scar can be completely avoided or reduced is dependent on how early the treatment is started and how aggressively it is managed.

What are the Different Types of Scars?

Acne scars tend to be depressed scars and are categorized as either Icepick, Box car, or Rolling types. Acne scars are caused by collagen destruction during the inflammatory process.

Burn scars occur when heat damages the skin. When burns only affect the top layer of the skin, the scar typically eventually fades over time. When the deeper layers of the skin are damaged, the scars can be permanent with thick, leathery, contracted or irregular appearance.

Hypertrophic scars are scars are thick, raised scars that are contained within the site of injury and may shrink over time. The pattern of collagen within a hypertrophic scar tends to be wavy.

Keloid scars are abnormally thick, raised scars that spread beyond the injury site and do not shrink over time. Keloid scars form as a result of an abnormal response to injury, creating excessive, thick collagen that holds no distinct pattern.

How can I prevent a scar from forming?

Understanding how healing occurs sheds light on how to best intervene. A fibrin clot will form at the site of a wound that promotes the release of platelets, white blood cells, and macrophages. Macrophages are responsible for releasing the body’s natural defenses to promote healing including several key growth factors responsible for healing. Among them include bFGF (basic fibroblast growth factor) which controls cellular proliferation of fibroblasts which are primarily responsible for building collagen. In other words, bFGF is important for the growth and regeneration of blood vessels, skin, fat, cartilage, tendons/ligaments, bone, and nerve tissue.

There are 4 stages of wound healing

Phase 1 Hemostasis (bleeding, clot)

Phase 2 Inflammatory (1 week)

Phase 3 Proliferation (fibroblast proliferation - 1 month)

Phase 4 Remodeling (3 weeks - 12 months)

Combination Therapy for Scar Prevention and Treatment:

At Rejuve Medspa, Dr. Kaplan applies her expertise and has several modalities available for the management of scar prevention and/or reversal. Depending on the type and severity of the scar, Dr. Kaplan will formulate a personalized plan for you. In most cases combining multiple modalities will provide the best outcomes.

HEALITE for Prevention of Scar Formation:

Scars can be prevented when we provide an environment where cells and intracellular functions are most efficient. Near infrared light has been clinically proven to speed recovery, lessen pain, bruising, swelling as well has enhance the cosmetic result of wound healing by boosting the ATP production or energy that the cells need to function.

At Rejuve Medspa we provide HEALITE II, FDA cleared for the temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, arthritis and muscle spasm. HEALITE boosts the cellular response to wound healing by recruiting macrophages, mast cells, and neutrophils. Neutrophils are white blood cells that are vital in fighting infections, while macrophages release growth factors responsible for wound healing.

Exosomes for Scar Prevention:

Exosome Regenerative Complex promotes skin cell proliferation by up to 80% in a dose-dependent manner. This results in an increase in the Elastin amount of human dermal fibroblasts up to 300%. Exosomes are responsible for cell to cell communication vital to the recruitment of peptides and growth factors needed during the healing process.

Growth Factors for Scar Prevention:

Exogenous growth factors can be added to boost the body’s natural defenses during the wound healing process. While HEALITE and Exosomes boost your body’s own ability to recruit growth factors and peptides, there also also topical products on the market which contain concentrated amounts of growth factors that are specifically targeted for helping in the healing cascade.

CO2 Laser for Scar Removal

Lutronic eCO2 Plus is an ablative CO2 laser that can reduce the appearance of scars including acne scars, surgical scars, burn scars and scars from lacerations or other injuries.

LaseMD Ultra Laser for Scar Reduction:

LaseMD Ultra is a non-ablative laser most popularly used for skin resurfacing/rejuvenation is also capable of reducing the appearance of acne scars and other types of scars.

Genius RF Microneedling for Scar Treatment:

Genius RF Microneedling targets the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, tighten skin, and reduce pore size. Genius can also reduce active acne outbreaks by reducing oil production.

Subcision of Acne Scars:

Deep acne scars occur as a result of collagen loss and fibrous bands that attach from the skin surface to the fascia layer, causing a depressed or indented appearance of the skin. Deeply depressed scars will often require subcision to release the fibrous bands and stimulate collagen production.

What is Sculptra and Why Choose Sculptra Over Dermal Filler?

What is Sculptra vs dermal filler?

What’s difference between dermal fillers and Scupltra? Sculptra is an injectable biostimulator made of of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Sculptra has a liquid consistency and is injected underneath the skin. Once injected, Sculptra incorporates into the tissues and stimulates your body’s natural production of collagen.

On the other hand, dermal fillers are made of Hyaluronic acid designed to hold its shape in the form of a gel-like substance. Dermal fillers do not stimulate collagen production, but rather are meant to temporarily replace missing volume. The effects of dermal filler are apparent immediately. Whereas the effects of Sculptra happens gradually since it takes time for the body to build collagen.

Both Dermal filler and Sculptra are designed to address lost volume, fine lines, folds and wrinkles. Due to the aging process, environmental stressors, and our genetic predisposition, we suffer from loss of collagen at a rate of about 1% annually after the age of 20. Loss of collagen leads to thinning of skin which results in the formation of wrinkles and folds. Collagen is a fibrous protein in the deep dermal layer that gives our skin structural support and helps to maintain shape, moisture, and elasticity of the skin. A healthy supply of collagen is the source of smooth skin and a youthful appearance.

How does sculptra work?

SCULPTRA (PLLA) is a bio-stimulating treatment. Sculptra works by addressing the underlying cause of aging skin from loss of collagen. Once injected in the face (or buttocks), Sculptra stimulates the natural growth of new collagen. This leads to restoration of facial volume over time and a dramatic improvement of the skin texture. Results are natural and become noticeable after 2-4 sessions (based on individual concerns). The effects of Sculptra can last up to 25 months.

am i a good candidate for sculptra?

Good candidates for Sculptra should have healthy immune systems and no history of keloid scars. Also, you should not have a medical condition that requires you to take blood thinners.

What to expect with Sculptra treatment?

Your provider at Rejuve Medspa will ensure your treatment will be performed under sterile precautions with the utmost care and comfort using numbing agents and distracting tools. Sculptra is injected in the face under ultrasound guidance (to mitigate potential complications) utilizing microcannula. We make an initial puncture with the trocar needle and use this opening to glide a blunt cannula (similar to IV catheter) to inject the product to the desired areas. After the treatment the client will need to massage the area for five minutes, five times a day for five days. This step is crucial so that biostimulating microparticles get evenly distributed and start stimulating collagen.

How do I prepare for Sculptra treatment?

We recommend staying well hydrated with ideally 8 glasses of water in a 24 hour hour period prior to the day of treatment. Please, avoid wearing makeup the day  of the treatment. We will cleanse your skin thoroughly prior to the procedure to prevent infection.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME with Sculptra?

You can expect to have mild soreness and swelling at the injection sites for about 1 week until the Sculptra incorporates into the tissues. Bruising can sometimes occur, but the risk is minimized with the use of ultrasound to avoid vessels and with the use of blunt-tip microcannulas for injection.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT RESULTS with sculptra?

Subtle results can typically be seen within a month of Sculptra injection. These results will continue to build as new collagen can take up to 6 months to form.

Why Platelets are the Most Natural and Effective Treatment for the Under Eye Area

the power of platelets for facial rejuvenation:

Want an all-natural, safe, and effective treatment? Platelets may be your answer.

As the proverb goes, “the eyes are the window to the soul”. So much attention is focused on the eyes. The under eye area is a common “concern” area. This is because the skin under the eyes is extremely thin and begins to sag and wrinkle as we age. For people who have dark shadows or under eye hollowing, there is lack of subcutaneous fat beneath this skin. Thus, muscle which lies directly below the skin, causes purplish discoloration below the eyes.

Other common areas of concern include the nasolabial folds (lines between the nose and lips) and wrinkles around the lips caused by gradual loss of collagen/elastin, shrinking fat pads, sagging ligaments, and constant muscle contractions.

What can we do to combat this aging process? Well, let’s get to the root cause. What’s our strategy?

1. Thicken the skin (improve collagen and elastin)

2. Tighten the skin (reverse wrinkles)

3. Prevent wrinkles (relax the muscles)

4. Prevent sagging (strengthen the ligaments)

5. Replenish the lost volume

While we have many therapies for each one of these five categories. Let’s talk about one that can address four out of the five.

what are the benefits of platelets (PRP or PRFM)?

Platelets are our body’s first responders to injury. They activate a cascade of physiological mechanisms conducive to healing and regeneration of tissues. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) release growth factors, stem cells and cytokines (cell messengers), which signal tissues to regenerate, restore and rebuild skin cells. PRP and PRFM procedures are utilized in aesthetic medicine to restore skin collagen and elastin, thus improving skin quality and overall healthy appearance.

why is prfm better than prp?

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) contains 5 times greater amount of platelets than the blood circulating in the human body; while the concentration of platelets in PRFM is 10 times greater. PRP remains in the injected area for about 24 hours; whereas PRFM stays productive in the area for one week to slowly release growth factors necessary for restoration of skin tissues. PRFM requires less blood volume compared to PRP, exerts more healing factors, while inflicting less trauma to individual cells.

how is the prfm treatment performed?

The process begins with a blood draw. The blood is collected into tubes which are spun at a very high speed in a centrifuge. This process separates blood cells (red cells, white cells) from plasma, which contains activated platelets, growth factors, stem cells, and cell messengers. PRP is then transferred into a tube which contains calcium chloride which converts the PRP into PRFM (Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix). PRFM turns into a gel-like matrix after about 1o minutes, allowing it actively recruit growth factors and stem cells to promote a healing cascade for one week.

Ultrasound is a tool that we use to assess the precise location of arteries and veins, as everyone’s anatomy varies. By avoiding arteries and veins, we can prevent bruising and vascular complications.

We use micro cannulas to inject PRP or PRFM into the face or neck. After cleansing the skin area, we numb the skin with Lidocaine and then create an opening or a skin puncture with a needle. Through this opening we insert a cannula, which is a blunt instrument similar to IV catheter. The cannula feels like pressure rather than pain. It is likely for clients to have mild swelling, which gradually improves as the body reabsorbs the PRP or PRFM. Growth factors, stem cells and cell messengers begin to stimulate the production of new and healthy cells.

why add healite?

Ever wonder why a plant grows better with fertilizer and sunlight? Imagine what your tomatoes would look like if it was grown in soil with only water, but no fertilizer or sunlight…it probably wouldn’t produce many tomatoes if any. So add fertilizer but, no sunlight…maybe a bit higher chance of success. Sunlight is what gives your tomato plants energy to produce fruit.

HEALITE (830 nm near infrared light) boosts the ATP (energy) production in your cells to enhance results and speed recovery. By providing more energy to your cells, you have better recruitment of neutrophils, mast cells, and macrophages that in turn recruit stem cells and growth factors to enhance the healing cascade. Think of platelets as the “fertilizer” and HEALITE as the “sunlight” needed to ensure a successful treatment.

when can i expect to see results with prfm?

Platelet therapy produces completely natural results that gradually improves over time. Every individuals’ immune response varies. Typically subtle results can be seen within one month, but continues to gradually improve over six months.

how many PRFM treatments will i need?

For the best results, we recommend a series of treatments, two to three treatments four weeks apart. A boost treatment four to six months later will enhance your results. Areas commonly treated include tear trough (under eye) area, but we highly recommend treating the entire face for the optimal results.

What should I do to prepare for treatment with prfm?

We recommend starting to prepare 7-10 days prior to treatment. Eating a well balanced diet, staying well hydrated, and getting plenty of rest will prepare you for production of healthy platelets, which live about seven to ten days. Being well hydrated will increase the amount of circulating blood in your body and will make the blood draw process easier. 24 hours prior to your appointment, please avoid steroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) such as Ibuprofen or Advil. NSAIDs and steroids interfere with the desired inflammatory response of your body, which is intended to regenerate your skin tissue.

post-care: what should i do after treatment with prfm?

To reduce swelling, we recommend staying well hydrated, reducing sodium in your diet and sleeping with the head elevated on a few pillows. Please avoid steroids and NSAID medications (such as Motrin or Advil) for 1 week after the treatment as this will blunt the body’s immune response to the platelet therapy.

You can further boost your immune system by maintaining a healthy diet, sleep and exercise routine. We recommend taking Vitamin C (2 gm daily for 1 week) and eating 1 mg/kg of protein.

what are PDO threads?

PDO refers to Polydioxanone which is a strong synthetic monofilament fiber consisting of one solid fiber of thread. PDO typically absorbs within 6-9 months depending on thickness. PDO Threads are also known as PDS, which have been used as a cutaneous and subcutaneous suture material in plastic surgery, Cardiothoracic surgery, trauma surgery, & gynecological surgery for over thirty years.

what are the benefits of pdo threads?

PDO threads are safe, versatile, and can address many areas to tighten skin, stimulate collagen production, and improve skin quality.

• Can be used for the face or body

• Durable - results lasts for up to 12-24 months, absorbs within 6-9 months (broken down by hydrolysis)

• Stimulates new collagen formation and strengthens connective tissue

• Results and benefits are immediately apparent

• Hydrophobic (does not attract water and therefore does not produce swelling)

• Low risk for infection or complications

where can pdo threads be placed?

PDO threads can be placed on the face or body to create a lifting effect, stimulate collagen production, tighten skin, and strengthen tissue. Commonly treated areas on the face include cheeks, lower face, jowls, nasolabial folds, under chin, and neck. Many other areas can be treated including glabella (frown lines), forehead, under eyes, neck, and décolleté.

PDO Thread Lift to Elevate the Jowls and under chin

Barbed PDO threads are placed to the cheeks, lower face and under chin area to provide an instant lifted appearance.

PDO Thread Lift to Cheeks and lower Face

Barbed PDO Threads are placed to the upper and lower face to reduce the appearance of deep nasolabial folds and sagging jowls. Some swelling is expected immediately after placement which gradually resolves over the next couple of weeks.

Lower Face PDO Thread Lift

PDO Thread Lift can be customized to address your particular concerns. In this case, the jowls are displaced below the jaw line. Bi-directional barbed threads are placed to reduce the appearance of sagging jowls, providing an immediate lifted appearance.

PDO Thread Lift to Lower Face & Mesh PDO Threads to Nasolabial Folds

Barbed PDO threads are placed to tighten the lower face which helps to reduce the appearance of deep nasolabial folds. Additionally, mesh PDO threads are placed in the nasolabial folds to further soften their appearance.

Mesh PDO Threads for Frown Lines

Frown lines can become deep folds over time as we lose collagen and elastin. Even Botox cannot help to eliminate these frown lines once they become so deep. Mesh PDO threads can be placed to create volume and smooth out the lines. Collagen builds as the PDO threads slowly dissolve.

PDO threads are safer to use in the Glabella region of the forehead. Dermal filler should be avoided in this high risk area due to nearby arteries since inadvertent arterial injection of filler can lead to stroke or blindness.

PDO Threads for Cellulite

Deep cellulite bands of the thighs are difficult to treat. This client had subcision of her cellulite as well as placement of smooth PDO threads. Five weeks later, her deep cellulite band appears less prominent. The smooth PDO threads stimulate collagen production to improve her skin texture.

PDO Threads Can Improve The Under Eye area

This client had PDO Thread Lift to her mid and lower face. Notice how her under eye area improved. As we age, our fat pads shrink and gravity causes a downward shift. PDO threads lift the fat pads back to its youthful position, thereby supporting the under eye area.

PDO Thread Lift to Contour cheeks and slim the Lower Face

Lifting the cheeks and lower face reverses the bottom heavy triangle that forms as gravity creates a downward shift over time.

PDO Thread Aftercare:

What can you expect after PDO Thread Lifting? Swelling and soreness after placement of PDO threads are common. To avoid breakage or displacement of the threads, avoid opening the mouth widely, avoid eating apples, steak, or anything tough or requiring heavy chewing; You should also avoid strenuous activities such as running, jumping, weights, etc. for a couple of weeks. Avoid facial massages or facials for 1 month. Avoid ablative/needling procedures (Genius RF microneedling, microneedling, CO2 laser, PlasmaMD, etc) for at least 1 month.

HEALITE is highly recommend immediately after PDO threads. HEALITE boosts the cellular response to promote healing and reduces pain. Learn more about HEALITE by clicking here.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How Long does PDO Thread Lift last?

PDO Thread Lift can last up to 1 year depending on the number and quality of threads used. Miracu PDO threads are FDA cleared. They are clinically proven to have stronger tensile strength due to its manufacturing process of heatless press molding. Miracu PDO threads also have larger cogs for superior hold.

Exosomes - A Breakthrough in Regenerative Aesthetics

We are living in an exciting era of rapid expansion in technology and capability with regards to anti-aging therapies. We no longer have to look our age, but rather we can potentially look the age we want to feel. Accomplishing this requires early intervention, prevention and maintenance. Exosomes are a cutting edge scientific biotech breakthrough for skin rejuvenation and regeneration.

What are Exosomes?

Exosomes are responsible for all cell to cell communication, bridging stem cell function with growth factors, cytokines and immune cells important for tissue repair and regeneration. In other words, Exosomes serve as “messengers” within the body, transferring information from cell to cell such as the exchange of RNA and other important proteins responsible for healing (fibroblasts, keratinocytes, immune cells, etc.).

What are the benefits of exosomes?

Exosomes improve skin quality to promote a more youthful, radiant appearance. Exosomes perform best when paired with skin tightening treatments such as microneedling, Genius RF microneedling, or LaseMD Ultra fractional laser to speed recovery and enhance results after these rejuvenating treatments.

• Reduce appearance of age related pigment

• Reduce fine lines & wrinkles

• Tighten appearance of loose skin

• Hydrate & nourish skin

• Promote a more radiant and even-toned complexion

• Speed recovery and enhance results after microneedling or laser treatments

Exosome Regenerative Complex:

Exosome Regenerative Complex contains stem cell derived lyophilized exosomes, potent growth factors, peptides, coenzymes, minerals, amino acids and vitamins. It is an intensive dual-action complex formulated as Nano particles to absorb quickly into the skin. Exosome Regenerative Complex is a patented product that is paraben-free, steroid-free, hypoallergenic, and clinically proven to rejuvenate and regenerate the skin.

In Vitro Testing:

Exosome Regenerative Complex promotes skin cell proliferation by up to 80% in a dose-dependent manner. This results in an increase in the Elastin amount of human dermal fibroblasts up to 300%.

how Do We Use Exosomes?

To enjoy the many benefits of Exosome Regenerative Complex, it is applied directly to the skin immediately after microneedling, Genius RF microneedling or LaseMD fractional laser treatments. You can expect an expedited recovery time and enhanced results of skin tightening, improved skin tone/texture, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles for an overall rejuvenating effect.

Exosome Regenerative Complex is not a drug product. It is not intended to prevent, treat, or cure diseases or medical conditions. It is not intended to be injected or delivered intravenously.

Beware of Retail Products claiming to have Exosomes

Exosomes are naturally secreted nanoparticles coming off of growing stem cells that harness potential for regenerative effects. But how are Exosomes extracted for clinical use? Benev Exosomes are manufactured using a very specific scientific process referred to as ExoSCRT that has been perfected after decades of research. After the Exosomes are carefully extracted from stem cells, they are freeze dried and then purified, thereby removing any debris or contaminants.

ExoSCRT is a patented process that utilizes a dual filtration method to purify exosomes from proliferating adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells. Not only is the ExoSCRT process very unique to Benev Exosome Regenerative Complex, they go one step further to lyophilize the purified Exosomes. What exactly does lyophilizing actually do? Exosomes are known to have regenerative capacity and biological properties. ExoSCRT aims to preserve this regenerative activity up until the very point that they can be used. In order to do that, the extracted exosomes are lyophilized and purified into a form that keeps them stable and preserves their biological activity. The product needs to be refrigerated and used within 3-4 hours of reconstitution.

So if you are purchasing a retail product that claims to contain “exosomes”, please consider how stable and effective they can possibly be. Remember that Exosomes are extremely fragile, requiring care in their extraction, purification and storage to maintain its efficacy.

Healthy Skin, Healthy Body at Rejuve Medspa

We are proud to be featured in an article written by Amy George for the Newcastle Living Magazine published in their July edition. The article captures the essence of our business philosophy. We are happy to share the contents of the article written below:

Healthy Skin, Healthy Body at Rejuve Medspa

By Amy George

The philosophy of a business often reflects the experiences and interests of its founder. Rejuve Medspa has several core values, one of which is to “treat each person as unique individuals, celebrating their unique qualities rather than trying to standardize beauty.” After working 20 years in emergency medicine, owner Dr. Giao Kaplan made the shift to aesthetic medicine so she could do just that.

As a board-certified emergency physician, Dr. Kaplan managed acute medical issues. She found herself wanting to focus on prevention and wellness with a schedule that would allow her “to spend ample time with patients and to develop continuity of care and personal connections.” An added bonus would be the opportunity to combine her science background with her artistic talents and creativity.

Dr. Kaplan retired from emergency medicine and started working exclusively as an aesthetic physician. Less than a year later, she opened Rejuve Medspa in Newcastle Commons in February 2021. The medical spa offers a wide range of treatments and services, including anti-aging therapies, regenerative medical treatments, and body contouring. The team offers everything from scar and acne revision and hair restoration to cellulite removal and laser skin resurfacing.

Patient experience is at the top of Rejuve’s core values. “Every patient needs to feel special,” said Dr. Kaplan. “We provide a relaxing, comfortable environment in a spa-like setting.” Patients receive customized treatment options with the aim of achieving natural-looking results in the most efficient way. “We educate and engage patients so they can choose the best treatment options in order to achieve their aesthetic goals.”

As Medical Director, Dr. Kaplan prioritizes safety. “We place a strong emphasis on continuing medical education,” Dr. Kaplan shared. The staff stay current on technologies and treatments, thoroughly research their equipment and procedures, and choose products and devices that are “clinically proven to be efficacious based on clinical trials and FDA clearances.”

In addition to the team’s clinical expertise is the safety of the building itself. “Rejuve Medspa was designed and built during the height of the COVID pandemic with safety in mind,” said Dr. Kapan. Rejuve has a special ventilation system specifically designed to filter out bacterial and viral pathogens. Fans and vents in treatment rooms redirect air outside to prevent cross-contamination; though, in keeping with the spa environment, they are hidden behind wood-slatted ceilings.

When asked what she enjoys most about her job, Dr. Kaplan said that she appreciates “interacting and building personal connections with clients and understanding and treating their aesthetic goals.” That sense of connection expands to her staff. “Every member of the Rejuve team is equally valued. We are dedicated to helping one another thrive, learn, and grow.”

Choosing to locate Rejuve Medspa in Newcastle was not a coincidence for Dr. Kaplan. From 2006 to 2013, she and her family lived in the China Falls neighborhood and “we fell in love with the Newcastle community.” Her aspiration to become “known as Newcastle’s premiere destination for healthy skin and body.”

Outside of her career, Dr. Kaplan enjoys architecture and design, drawing, painting, and gardening. Her favorite activity is spending time with her family – her husband Andy and her daughter Zoe and son Anders. Between hip hop dance, Tae Kwon Do and more, the kids keep their parents busy. Together, they enjoy family gatherings and traveling.

Emsculpt NEO - More Muscle, Less Fat

Emsculpt NEO is a revolutionary body contouring device that simultaneously builds muscle while also eliminating fat and tightening skin. Emsculpt NEO adds Radiofrequency heat combined with HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electro Magnetic Energy) to build 25% more muscle and 30% less fat on average after 4 sessions based on evidence from clinical trials.

We lose 3-5% of our muscle mass per decade beginning at the age of 30 years. Muscle mass is naturally impacted by decreases in growth hormone, testosterone and estrogen levels. Importantly, any loss of muscle mass will accelerate fat gain.

EMSCULPT NEO - SYNCHRONIZED RF + HIFEM

• Emsculpt NEO is the only patented Synchronized RF (Radiofrequency) heating device that works simultaneously within a magnetic field.

• Emsculpt NEO is the #1 muscle sculpting technology with newly designed protocols to combine HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy) with RF heating.

EMSCULPT NEO

Emsculpt NEO combines two technologies in one device.

Clinical studies have shown dramatic results after three 30-minute sessions spaced 5-10 days apart:

• 25% MORE Muscle

• 30% LESS Fat

• 5.9 cm reduction in waste circumference

• 19% improvement in Diastasis Recti

how is emsculpt neo different from emsculpt classic?

• Radiofrequency in NEO adds skin tightening, MORE fat reduction and MORE muscle building

• Fat Reduction: 30% with NEO vs 19% with Classic Emsculpt

• Muscle building: 25% with NEO vs 16% with Classic Emsculpt

• Diastasis Recti (abdominal separation): 19% with NEO vs 11% with Classic Emscupt

• Skin Tightening: new benefit with NEO vs no skin tightening benefit with Classic Emsculpt

• Waist Circumference Reduction: 5.9 cm waist circumference reduction with NEO, 4.37 cm with Classic Emsculpt

• Treatment areas: New FDA cleared areas for treatment including inner thighs, anterior and posterior thighs with NEO

• Comfort of treatment: NEO feels more comfortable with the addition of radiofrequency heat and due to changes in the muscle contraction protocol.

EMSCULPT NEO before & after photos:

how does EMSCULPT neo work?

Emsculpt NEO has taken body sculpting to the next level. Not only does it build muscle, it also eliminates fat and tightens skin at the same time. Using High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy (HIFEM) to contract muscles about 20,000 times during a 30 minute session, Emsculpt NEO has been clinically shown to reduce fat on average of about 30%, while increasing the thickness of muscle by 25% after 3 sessions.

Due to the RF heating, Emsculpt NEO is the only aesthetic procedure that works out heated muscles. The muscle temperature quickly raises by several degrees. The muscles are prepared for exposure to stress similar to what a warm up activity does before any workout. In less than 4 minutes, the temperature in subcutaneous fat reaches that cause apoptosis, i.e. fat cells are permanently destroyed and slowly removed from the body.

Bypassing the brain limitations, HIFEM+ energy contracts muscles fibers in the treated area at intensities that are not achievable during voluntary workout. Extreme stress forces the muscle to adapt, resulting in muscle fiber hypertrophy (enlargement of single muscle fibers) and hyperplasia (increase number of muscle fibers).

WHAT ARE THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF EMSCULPT neo?

• Improved core strength

• Improved posture

• Improved low back pain

• Can be used for rehabilitation after injury or surgery

• Improved diastasis (abdominal wall muscle separation) which commonly happens after pregnancy

• Tightened appearance of skin

How Many Emsculpt NEO Sessions Will I Need?

4 sessions is the minimum number for best results. Although many clients will benefit more from 6-8 treatments. Sessions are spaced about 1 week apart (range from 5-10 days).

core to floor

Core Strength includes abdominal, gluteal and pelvic floor muscles. Emculpt NEO can be combined with EMSELLA to improve your Whole Core.

Core to Floor Therapy is specifically designed to combat conditions such as incontinence and abdominal muscle separation. Improving core strength can also aid in relieving low back pain.

NINE AREAS EMSCULPT NEO CAN TREAT:

• Abdomen

• Buttocks

• Biceps

• Triceps

• Front thighs

• Back Thighs

• Inner Thighs

• Side Thighs (Saddle bags)

• Calves

WHAT IS EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT LIKE?

Emsculpt NEO feels like intense muscle contractions combined with warm heat. Your provider can titrate the intensity of the muscle contractions and heat based on individual needs and comfort levels. The HIFEM contractions are equivalent to doing 20,000 sit-ups in 30 minutes. You might have mild muscle soreness after Emsculpt NEO, but most people do not. This is because Emsculpt NEO alternates between intense contractions and tapping which helps to release lactic acid build up in the muscles caused by the intense contractions.

Emsculpt NEO is non-invasive, safe, and comfortable. For optimal results, a series of 4 treatments, 5-10 days apart is recommended. We also recommend that you drink 2 liters of water the day before and 1.5 liters of water on the day of treatment to help improve the elimination of dead fat cells through your lymphatic system. Wear loose clothing and avoid clothing with zippers or metal.

IS EMSCULPT neo RIGHT FOR ME?

It is best to schedule a consultation with our doctor to determine if you are the right candidate for treatment. Emsculpt NEO should be avoided if you have metal implants in your spine, pacemaker/defibrillator, implanted medication pumps, copper IUD, or pregnancy.

Emsculpt NEO is best suited for people who have a BMI (body mass index) of 30% or less. Since muscle weighs more than fat, Emsculpt NEO typically does not cause any significant weight loss. It is highly recommended that candidates who are seeking this body sculpting treatment to maintain a healthy diet and exercise program.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME WITH EMSCULPT neo?

There is no downtime with Emsculpt NEO. You can get back to your normal activities right away. However, since you are receiving 20K supramaximal muscle contractions in a 30 minute session, your treated muscles will benefit from rest the day before, the day of and the day after your treatment in order to focus on efficiently building muscle fibers. Excessive workout of the treated muscles can lead to muscle fatigue which will not set the most optimal conditions for successful muscle building. Cardio workout, and weight-lifting other muscle groups should be fine in conjunction with Emsculpt NEO.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULTS WITH EMSCULPT neo?

Clinical studies have shown that results can be seen within a month and can continue to improve for up to 3-6 months. Results remain stable for about a year without change in diet or exercise. It is recommended that you maintain a well-balanced healthy diet and routine exercise regimen.

How does Emsculpt NEO compare with Cooltone or Coolsculpting?

Emsculpt NEO is the only FDA cleared body sculpting device that combines both radiofrequency with muscle building capability using a patented HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electro Magnetic Energy) technology. The muscle contractions with Emsculpt NEO is much more intense and powerful compared with Cooltone. The added Radiofrequency enhances both the muscle building and the fat reduction capacity of Emsculpt NEO.

Coolsculpting uses cooling to destroy fat cells. The process takes up to 3 months to see results. Potential complications of coolsculpting include temporary numbness at the treatment site and a 1% chance of Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia which can cause an unexpected, paradoxical overgrowth (hyperplasia) of fatty (adipose) tissue. Coolsculpting does not enhance muscle building.

Emsculpt NEO has no reported risk of Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia or numbness. Emsculpt NEO promotes health benefits related its muscle building such as improved metabolism and muscle strength. Building core strength also helps to relieve back pain for many people.

Award Winning Emsculpt NEO

Emsculpt NEO has won various industry awards including from best-in-class aesthetic publications such as ELLE, Glamour, Shape, InStyle, New Beauty, Shape, and AMWC.

Edge applicators

The new Emsculpt NEO Edge applicators have the largest spot size in the industry, allowing for treatment of the sides including all oblique muscles. This 30 minute treatment combines RF and HIFEM to simultaneously burn fat reduction and build muscle. The results are impressive. The EDGE applicators are quickly becoming a staff and client favorite. An EDGE treatment can be done alone or it can be done in addition to the abdominal applicators for a 360 degree coverage of the abdominal and waist areas for fat reduction.

Dermal Fillers

what are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are game changers in the field of medical aesthetics. For the last decade the choices of fillers and advancements in techniques have allowed us to reverse the effects of aging, perfect and celebrate our natural beauty, and to add finesse to our facial features. Dermal fillers made with Hyaluronic acid (HA) are designed to replace volume loss in the areas of cheeks, temple, mid and lower face, chin, jawline and lips. Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide (glucose molecule) which is naturally occurring in our body as it is a building block of our connective tissues.

how do dermal fillers work?

We are fortunate to offer many HA fillers in our practice. However, not all fillers are the same and are therefore not interchangeable. Fillers have unique chemical and physical properties, and are designed to be injected into specific areas of the face. Fillers that are intended to create a lift are thicker gels, which create vertical lift. Other fillers are designed for mobile areas, such as lips. Those fillers have unique properties allowing for free and unrestricted mobility of the tissues. Fillers have different longevity based on their physical structure, mobility of the treatment area, and metabolic rate of the client. For example, fillers placed in lips have the shortest duration due to constant movements of the lips (3 to 9 months). Fillers used for cheek bone enhancement have the most longevity, up to 12-24 months.

Lip Filler

• Enhance lip shape

• Showcase Lip definition

• Plump thin lips

• Hydrate lip lines

• Promote light distribution on lips to improve depth perception and overall lip curvature.

• Correct asymmetry

Cheek Filler

• Creates lift

• Reduces prominence of the nasolabial fold

• Slims appearance of face

• Replaces lost volume

• Supports the under eye area to reduce appearance of eye hollowing

• Enhances profile

am i a good candidate for dermal filler?

This is a great question. Filler is indicated to treat volume loss of the face, for correction of asymmetry, and for diminishing fine lines and folds. Clients often wonder if there is a particular age they should be starting to think about fillers. The answer is no. We frequently treat younger clients with the purpose of beautification, such as hydrating and defining lips, chin and jawline contouring, and correction of asymmetry. Restoration treatments are applicable for more mature clients who frequently look for replenishing of volume loss, correction of folds and fine lines.

There are several contraindications for fillers based on one’s medical conditions. Some of the contraindications include history of severe allergies, pregnancy and breastfeeding, known allergy to HA filler or lidocaine, active infectious process, and being treated with blood thinners. As far as aesthetic indications, we make those determinations on a case by case basis.

whAT CAN I EXPECT DURING DERMAL FILLER TREATMENT?

Your provider will discuss with you the procedure, including goals, realistic expectations, potential complications and after care. In our practice we utilize ultrasound to avoid inadvertent arterial injection, and we use Accuvein device to avoid bruising. We also use micro cannula technique to ensure safety and accuracy, and to minimize any chance of bruising. Your comfort during this treatment is our great priority. We use various techniques to enhance your relaxation and minimize discomfort.

HA fillers are reversible by a naturally occurring enzyme called hyaluronidase which can be used to reverse HA filler in the rare case of complications of undesirable effects.

HOW DO i PREPARE FOR DERMAL FILLER BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT?

Unlike many other aesthetic procedures, filler requires very little preparation. In order to minimize bruising, we recommend avoiding alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen-type medications, flaxseed and vitamin E 2-3 days prior to treatment. Please let us know if you are recovering from infections, have been recently vaccinated or scheduled for vaccination in the next 2 weeks, and if you EVER had a history of cold sores.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER DERMAL FILLER TREATMENT?

The exciting aspect about dermal fillers is that the results will become apparent immediately. We will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions.

How many sessions will I need? Typically 5-6 sessions (this varies from person to person). You can expect 80-90% reduction of hair growth after 6 sessions.

Is it painful? Laser Hair removal with Clarity II is more comfortable than other lasers because it has continuous temperature sensing to prevent over-heating. There is also built-in cryogen that cools the skin during the laser treatment. No numbing medication is required.

What do I need to do to prepare? Your skin should be clean & well-shaven before your laser hair removal appointment.

Is there any downtime? There is minimal down-time. We will provide detailed instructions on before and after care for Laser Hair Removal.

How much does Laser Hair Removal Cost? Depending on the area, costs can vary. Please review our booking link for more information about pricing. Look under the tab labeled “Hair Removal”: Booking/Pricing link

what is the best type of device for laser hair removal?

755nm is the Gold Standard for laser hair removal. It has been clinically shown to be the most effective wavelength to target pigment contained in hair follicles to permanently destroy them. But are all devices with 755 nm wavelength created equally? Well, ask yourself if a Honda Civic has the same horse power and speed that a Ferrari does. The type of car engine determines how a car performs on the road. Consider Clarity II to be the Ferrari of Laser Hair Removal devices. Clarity II has up to 100 Joules of power, more powerful than other devices on the market.

What does more power mean & what are the benefits of clarity II?

• Two times faster treatments

• Fewer sessions required for effective permanent removal of hair

• Temperature sensing for continuous real-time skin temperature feedback

• Built-in Cryogen (cold air) to allow for more comfortable treatments

• Dual wavelength 755/1064 nm to increase safety for treating different skin types
  
  

what are the different types of hair removal and how effective are they?

There are many ways to remove unwanted hair. Shaving, hair removal creams, waxing, and epilators are temporary ways to remove hair. Each has their own disadvantages potentially leading to infection, ingrown hair, skin irritation, and even hyper-pigmentation (darkening) of skin. Laser hair removal permanently removes hair by destroying the hair follicles, saving time and the hassles associated with other methods of hair removal.

What’s the difference between IPL, DIODE and laser?

Laser is an acronym for “Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation”. Lasers have a single wavelength. Whereas IPL stands for “Intense Pulse Light”, and is a collection of very bright lights with multiple wavelengths. Diode uses semiconductor technology that produces coherent projection of light in the visible to infrared range. Diode uses a light beam with a narrow spectrum to target specific chromophores in the skin. Diode and IPL tend to be painful and are less effective than lasers for hair removal.

Why choose Clarity II?

When considering where to get Laser Hair Removal, it pays to do your homework. Compare apples to apples. IPL is not a laser, and it is not safe to use for individuals with darker skin due to the higher risk of hyper-pigmentation and burns. Some laser hair removal devices are considered painless, but may require 12 or more sessions. Clarity II is a high-powered 755/1064 nm with two different wavelengths to allow for flexibility in safely treating a broad range of skin types.

how many laser hair removal sessions will i need?

Hair growth has different stages. Lasers cannot effectively destroy a follicle in it’s dormant stage. Therefore treatment sessions will be spaced 6-8 weeks apart. It typically takes 5-6 sessions for effective Laser Hair Removal with Clarity II, but this varies from person to person based on their skin type, color and thickness of hair, and any associated hormonal imbalances or medical problems. At Rejuve Medspa, all clients seeking Laser Hair Removal will be assessed by a qualified medical doctor prior to treatment.

Is Laser Hair Removal Painful with Clarity II?

Clarity II has continuous temperature sensing to avoid over-heating during the treatment. It also has built-in cryogen to provide cold air during the treatment to help reduce any pain. Clarity II Laser Hair Removal is much less painful than IPL or Diode. Therefore, numbing medication is not required.

is there any downtime after laser hair removal?

There is minimal downtime associated with Laser Hair Removal. It is common to have mild swelling and redness around the hair follicles immediately after treatment, but this quickly resolves. You will be provided with detailed aftercare instructions following your Laser Hair Removal treatment at Rejuve Medspa.

What should I do to prepare for Laser Hair removal?

You will want to avoid tanning. Tanned skin adds more pigment to your skin, making you more prone to burns during the Laser Hair Removal treatment. Clean, well-shaven skin is advised prior to treatment.

Can Relaxing Your Frown Lines Elevate Your Mood?

Feeling upset, worried, depressed, or experiencing pain causes the forehead muscles between the eyebrows and above your nose to contract. This area is known as the “Glabella”. So can relaxing the glabella muscles improve your mood? A growing body of research supports this theory.

Botox and Dysport are two popular Neuromodulators which relax muscles to prevent frown lines from forming. As a result, the feedback loop which tells your brain that you are angry, sad, anxious or worried are partially inhibited. Research supports the evidence that relaxing the muscles which are triggered by your negative emotions can help elevate your mood:

Research article: "Emotional proprioception: Treatment of depression with afferent facial feedback"

Research article: "The Use of Botulinum Toxin for Treatment of Depression"

Research article: Shrink that frown! Botulinum toxin therapy is lifting the face of psychiatry"

Research article: Depression--An emerging indication for botulinum toxin treatment"

Research article: "Botulinum toxin for the treatment of major depressive disorder"

It’s no wonder why treating frown lines with Botox or Dysport is one of the most popular aesthetic treatments today. Not only can it cause a positive change in your mood and affect, it can also prevent permanent wrinkles or deep folds from forming.

What’s the difference between Botox and Dysport?

Both Botox and Dysport contain Botulinum toxin Type A (BoNT-A). Botox is manufactured by Allergan, while Dysport is manufactured by Galderma. All BoNT-A products have the same size and weight of active neurotoxin. However, Botox and Dysport have different accessory protein complex components.

Brotox - Botox for men

what about guys?

Historically, neuromodulators such as Botox or Dysport were considered taboo in the guy’s world. The paradigm has shifted over the last decade as the desire to look good and preserve a youthful appearance gained traction over stigma and the hesitancy of being judged. Men aren't immune to the aging process. Botox and Dysport have become popular among men because wrinkles make them appear older. A growing need to remain competitive in today’s society (job market, social media, etc.) is the driving force behind Brotox popularity.

Brotox is a nickname for the injectable neuromodulator procedure when it is referred to male clients.  Botox and Dysport temporarily relax the muscles that lead to formation of wrinkles. Skin elasticity is reduced due to loss of collagen and elastin in the skin. This causes fine lines and wrinkles to eventually become permanent deep folds. That is why early treatment to prevent wrinkles is important.

How is Botox or Dysport different for men?

While men are interested in reversing the clock and preventing wrinkles, their aesthetic goals may be different from women. Many men prefer to preserve some of their movements. Your aesthetic injector will talk to you about the balance of softening your wrinkles and maintaining a masculine look.

what areas can botox or dysport treat?

Frown lines are the most popular area requested to be treated by a male clients. After all, being grumpy does not define masculinity. Other popular areas include the forehead lines and the wrinkles around the eyes, known as the “crow’s feet”. We would be happy to customize your treatment according to your outcome expectations.

WHAT ELSE CAN botox and dysport TREAT BESIDES WRINKLES?

• Gummy smile - showing too much gums when smiling can be alleviated by relaxing the muscles that elevate when you smile.

• TMJ - teeth grinding or clenching causing jaw soreness can be improved by relaxing the masseter muscles that help with chewing.

• Uneven facial expressions - stronger muscles causing uneven facial expressions can be relaxed to create symmetry.

• Facial contouring - muscles tend to atrophy (shrink) after repeat dosing of neuromodulators. Thus jawline slimming can be achieved after treating the masseter muscles that help control chewing.

• Acne - by reducing pore size and sebum (oil) production, there is improvement of acne breakouts.

• Excessive sweating - by relaxing the sweat glands, there is less sweat production.

• Hair restoration - by relaxing the ciliary muscles that are attached to hair follicles, there is improved blood flow. Improved blood flow to the scalp allows for better nutrient (growth factor) supply to the hair follicles. One study showed 8 of 10 people treated with Botox for male pattern baldness had good to excellent results: "A Pilot Study to Evaluate Effectiveness of Botulinum Toxin in Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Males"

Wrinkle Prevention with Botox or Dyport - What Else Can It Do?

Most people know that Botox/Dysport can help relax muscles, thereby preventing wrinkles such as frown lines, smile or laugh lines, “crow’s feet” or eye furrows, and forehead wrinkles. But did you know that Botox/Dysport can also be used to contour the face, treat TMJ or teeth grinding, or correct uneven facial features. Botox/Dysport can even treat excessive sweating and reduce pore size, thereby controlling acne. Some people also use Botox to help control migraine headaches.

WHAT IS A NEUROMODULATOR (BOTOX, DYSPORT)?

Botox is the “Kleenex” of neuromodulators. In other words, when we think of Botox, some of us don’t realize there are more than one of its kind. Neuromodulators are the family of onabotulinum toxin A proteins, which temporarily relax muscles. Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Jeuveau are four neuromodulators currently approved by the FDA in the United States.

When making facial expressions, lines form on your face as muscle under the skin contract. Each smile, frown, or squint you make contributes to the wrinkles that appear on your face. By temporarily relaxing muscles, neuromodulators soften facial creases and undesirable lines that form over time. Left untreated, some of these facial lines may leave you with unintentional worried or angry expressions.

WHAT TO EXPECT with botox or dysport treatment?

Reducing the use of facial muscles with a neuromodulator can help smooth the appearance of facial expression lines for 3 to 4 months. Duration varies between individuals and may be affected by your metabolic rate.

During consultation, your provider at Rejuve Medspa will discuss your medical history, observe animation of your facial muscles, and develop your treatment plan. After marking targeted muscles with brow pencil, you will be injected with Botox or Dysport using a very small gauge needle. Due to the proper technique and fine size of the needle, the discomfort is minimal. You may have slight redness at the injection site, which disappears in less than an hour after treatment.

IS THIS botox or dysport RIGHT FOR ME?

Botox Cosmetic is FDA approved for adults for temporality improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, forehead and lines around the eyes known as crow’s feet. Off label use includes correction of “gummy smile”, lip lines known as “smoker’s lines”, wrinkling in the area of chin, and injection in masseter (muscle involved in chewing) for the purposes of slimming effect as well as relief of clenching and teeth grinding.

This treatment is not recommended for individuals who have infection at the proposed injection site, during pregnancy or lactation, anyone with known hypersensitivity, or in presence of certain neurological diseases. 

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME with botox or dysport?

Besides the possibility of mild redness at the injection site lasting less than an hour, this procedure is considered to have no downtime. We recommend abstaining from massaging the area, lying down flat and avoiding vigorous physical activity for about 4 hours after the treatment to prevent migration of the product from strategically injected areas.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT RESULTS with botox or dysport?

While the effects of an injection are not immediately apparent, results are visible after a few days. However, the full effect takes 14 days before you appreciate the final outcome.

WHEN SHOULD I FOLLOW UP?

FDA treatment recommended doses come in ranges. If you are a new client, we will start you on the lower end of the therapeutic range and will reassess in two weeks if you would require additional Botox enhancement. Once you are pleased with your outcome, no follow up is needed. However, we will be delighted to meet with you for any questions or concerns.

EMSCULPT - BUILD MUSCLE AND BURN FAT

EMSCULPT has taken body sculpting to the next level. Not only does it build muscle, it also eliminates fat at the same time. Using High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy (HIFEM) to contract muscles about 20,000 times during a 30 minute session, EMSCULPT has been clinically shown to reduce fat on average of about 19%, while increasing the thickness of muscle by 16% after 4 sessions.

Emsculpt NEO Has enhanced results compared to Emsculpt Classic.

what are the health benefits of emsculpt?

• Improved core strength

• Improved posture

• Improved low back pain

• Can be used for rehabilitation after injury or surgery

• Improved diastasis (abdominal wall muscle separation) which commonly happens after pregnancy.

what areas can be treated with emsculpt?

• Abdomen

• Arm (Biceps and Triceps)

• Thighs (Hamstrings and Quadriceps)

• Legs (Calves)

• Buttocks

what is emsculpt treatment like?

EMSCULPT feels like intense muscle contractions. Your provider can titrate the intensity of the muscle contractions based on individual needs and comfort levels. The HIFEM contractions are equivalent to doing 20,000 sit-ups in 30 minutes. You might have mild muscle soreness after EMSCULPT, but most people do not. This is because EMSCULPT alternates between intense contractions and tapping which helps to release lactic acid build up in the muscles caused by the intense contractions.

EMSCULPT is non-invasive, safe, and comfortable. For optimal results, a series of 4 treatments – 2 treatments per week is recommended. We also recommend that you drink 2 liters of water the day before and 1.5 liters of water on the day of treatment to help improve the elimination of dead fat cells through your lymphatic system. Wear loose clothing and avoid clothing with zippers or metal.

Is EMSCULPT right for me?

It is best to schedule a consultation with our doctor or nurse practitioner to determine if you are the right candidate for treatment. EMSCULPT should be avoided if you have metal implants in your spine, pacemaker/defibrillator, implanted medication pumps, copper IUD, or pregnancy.

Is there any downtime with emsculpt?

There is no downtime with EMSCULPT. You can get back to your normal activities right away.

When can I expect to see results with emsculpt?

Clinical studies have shown that results can be seen within a month and can continue to improve for up to 3-6 months. Results remain stable for about a year without change in diet or exercise. It is recommended that you maintain a well-balanced healthy diet and routine exercise regimen.
