Excellent! Dr. Forsha is unlike any doctor I have ever seen. He is friendly, upbeat and really took the time time to discuss why I needed to have my moles removed, what the process entailed and what I could expect afterwards. I was so nervous but the staff made me feel comfortable. Everyone had a smile and was very compassionate during my visit. Dr. Forsha assistant, Ashley personally called me the next day to check on me and make sure I wasn't experiencing any pain. SkinGym Dermatology and Dr. Forsha are top notch. I wish I would have found then sooner!!!
Went to see him for hair loss after being discouraged by two other dermatologists in the area. He recommended a scalp injection that would essentially grow my hair back and to my surprise it worked. He was friendly and sat down to take the time to get to know my concerns and to properly educate me. No other doctor in town took the time to do this so I was very pleased. The clinic was clean and contemporary and each staff that I interacted with was very friendly and accommodating. I was served coffee upon my arrival while I waited for the doctor. Talk about five star rating! Would highly recommend this clinic to any friends or family or someone looking for a higher level of care. Doctor Forsha explained that he offers over 40 years of experience and has traveled the world and is also a research dermatologist. This would explain his alternative approach to treating my bald spot. Very happy with Skingym Dermatology!
After being discouraged from a few different dermatologist in the area I came across to Skingym dermatology and Dr. Forsha. Upon my arrival I was greeted with a very friendly front office staff member and offered coffee. Talk about five-star service. Upon being taken back to an exam room I met Dr. Forsha who sat down and discussed with me my concerns. He took the time to really address my issues and to offer several different treatment options. Other dermatologists that I had visited seemed very unfriendly and did not Take the time to offer options or explain those options. Dr. Forsha explained every option he was recommending and then allowed me to make the decision that I felt was best. I chose to do an injection that would stimulate my hair to regrow. Within just a few months my bald spot was completely filled in. The staff was very courteous and sent me follow up to ensure that my experience was great as well as I wanted to make sure that I was completely taken care of. This clinic deserves The highest rating possible. If I could give them a 10 stars I would but the system only allows for five. Kylie would recommend to anybody looking for advanced dermatology care in the Des Moines area .
Without an exam in person it is difficult to fully determine what is causing your redness but my guess would be Rosacea. Typically, a patient that suffers from this condition does experience flare ups of inflamed (redness in the skin) skin, a rash like appearance and sensitivity to heat or spicy foods that can cause this reaction. Laser Genesis is a great none medication option to heal and correct this condition. Several treatments are needed to diffuse the redness but the results start immediately and are long lasting.

Yes! Your hair grows in several hair phases. Each hair phase must be targeted and treated with the technology during the "active" hair phase. This phase cycles every 4-8 weeks . Your body also only has about 20-% of active hair on the body at one time which is why you need multiple sessions. The hair you had treated yesterday, will be destroyed however, the remaining hair will continue to change through each hair phase. Once you have had all of your phases treated, you will notice great results. So you can relax :). It's normal.
Hello. You are soon on your way to great results. I suggest to wash the ointment off completely through out the day. The vinegar will reduce redness and inflammation and actually speed up the healing process in some cases. I realize this process is tiresome, however it is just needed for 24 hours following the treatment. After the first day you can return to your normal skin care routine. Kindly, Doug Forsha, MD
Depending on what your goals are with Genesis would determine the answer. If you are looking to achieve more fullness in the lips, typically you should notice some slight improvement immediately after each treatment. If you are looking to improve fine lines around the mouth then I would suggest a series of peels designed specifically for these type of wrinkles in combination with the Genesis. We like the layered mal -e and sal- e peels from Epionce. If you are doing Genesis alone, please keep in mind the treatment continues to change the collage within the skin for up to six weeks. Therefore, the results can be quit progressive. We recommend a series of 6-8 sessions every 2-4 weeks for best results.
Greetings, the bumps and itching can be contributed to the hair existing then skin. The hair targeting that is responding will continue to dye and exist over the next few weeks post treatment. Using a wash cloth or luffa while showering may help pull the dead hair out and reduce bumps.
