As long as the hair is dark (not gray or blonde), I usually recommend laser hair removal over electrolysis to my patients. In people with darker skin types, I recommend the Nd: YAG laser.
I often recommend Botox injections to my patients with gummy smiles. It helps to loosen and lower the upper lip, so that less of the gum shows when smiling.
For indented or atrophic acne scars, I usually first recommend subscision, to break up and loosen the bound- down scars. I would only consider injecting dermal fillers into the scar after the subscision, or else the fillers may make the scar more noticeable.
For Pilar cysts in the scalp, I usually recommend surgical excision. It is a quick, in- office procedure. I do not find isotretinoin to be helpful in healing or removing pilar cysts.
In my experience, the cause of the hair thinning is a big factor when it comes to trying to get the hairs back. Harvesting PRP and injecting it into targeted areas promotes collagen growth to promote new healthier hair growth. PRP works by increasing blood supply to the follicle, while also slowing hair loss, stimulating hairs into the growth phase, controlling the growth cycle and, increasing thickness of the hair shaft.
