What is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is heavier than normal sweating that occurs in somewhat random situations. For example, someone could simply be sitting at their desk in a classroom or at work, and start to sweat. Sweating caused by hyperhidrosis often occurs on the forehead, feet or in the groin area.
Hyperhidrosis typically starts during a person’s teens and doesn’t improve until they reach their 30s so it can be very embarrassing to deal wi... 
Causes of Male Pattern Hair Loss
Some people will try to explain hair loss in different ways, from washing your hair too often to using too many hair styling products to wearing a hat every day. But the cause of male pattern hair loss can typically be summed up in one word – genetics.
The cells in the parts of the scalp are programmed to begin miniaturizing the hair and make those hair follicles go away. This is usually driven by testosterone or som... 
What Should I Expect from a Chemical Peel?
Chemical peels should be done in a series of three to six peels. For the best results, we recommend a series of six peels, three weeks apart.
Depending on the type of peel, you may notice a mild tingling sensation or feel heat on the skin. Some acids are neutralized by us and some acids are self-neutralizing, so they keep working after you leave.
By the second or third day, you’ll notice peeling or flaking...

Both Dysport and Botox prevent wrinkles because they lessen this movement. When injected, these “botulinum toxins” prevent nerves from talking to the muscles. The molecules block this communication so that the muscle doesn’t contract. When the muscle stops contra... 
What Are Fillers?
Injectable fillers help restore volume in the skin, which can reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles that come with age. Injectable fillers have also been used to make thin lips fuller, correct acne scars, and make the areas under the eyes less dark or puffy.
The most commonly used substance in injectable fillers is hyaluronic acid. Produced naturally by the human body, hyaluronic acid fills the space between cells. It attracts w...

Unlike other superficial treatments, Pellevé treatments go about two millimeters into the skin to rejuvenate collagen elastin fibers without damaging the top layer of the skin.
Collagen elastin fibers support the skin and hold it onto the muscle. Over time, these fibers get stretched out and lo... 
RejuvaPen is a micro-needling system that uses a specialized “pen” containing a cartridge with nine small needles. But don’t let that scare you! These are extremely small micro-needles that lead to great results.
