As I age my lips are becoming thinner. Lip fillers give me just enough plump to give me a more youthful appearance. I feel better about myself! Dr Petro and her staff are absolutely amazing! Highly recommend

41 and Wanting to Feel Good About Self Again - Birmingham, AL

I went to see Dr Melanie Petro after reading about her online through reviews. I wanted to get filler and wanted to make sure I went to someone who knew what they were doing. First of all, let me say that Dr Petro and her office staff are amazing! Such a relaxed atmosphere and everyone makes you feel welcome. I have suffered with cystic acne on my chin area only for about 10 years off and on and had some scarring and discoloration due to the acne. When I went to see Dr Petro

41 Yr Old Not Happy with Wrinkles and Skin Tone - Birmingham, AL

I went to my doctor for the first time thinking I was getting botox to look and feel my best just before my wedding. She recomnended doing laser resurfacing to get the best result for my money. I felt I could trust her after just a few minutes of talking with her. She's was very genuine about wanting to help me feel better about myself. The treatment itself was a little more painful than I was expecting especially the first hour afterwards. I took some benadryl and slept like

57 Yrs Old. I Have a Fatty Scist on my Neck That Looks Like a Double Chin, I Also Wanted to Get Rid of my Stomach - Alabama

My motivation to do the Coolsculpting was the fatty scist on my neck. I couldn't help but do my stomach while I was there. To me there was no cons. There was very little that was uncomfortable. 48 hrs after the treatment and all I have had is a little swelling in my stomach and very little soreness on my neck and stomach. I guess the more fat the less side effects. Lol

Lipoma on my Jaw - Only Option! - Vestavia Hills, AL

I have a lipoma on my jaw near my chin and surgery to remove it was not an option because of potential nerve damage. Dr. Petro suggested I try Kybella and after one treatment I could see a difference. It was approximately 12 weeks before all of the numbing effect went away. Yesterday, I had a follow-up treatment, 5 months following the first treatment. I'm swollen and bruised but that is normal and it is worth it.

45 Years Old, Tanning Bed Queen and Sun Worshiper in the Past, Cystic Acne Until Age 36 (Finally Took Accutane) - Birmingham, AL

My motivation for HALO was to remove sun damage, minimize enlarged acne pores/pitting, help melasma, combat aging/wrinkles and boost collagen. I have tried Rhytec Portrait in 2009, erbium laser in 2011--both with "ok" results after 5 days of oozing and hiding. The HALO minimal downtime and duel lasers peaked my interest. Also being able to adjust the laser intensity was a positive. I wanted an aggressive treatment to "get my money's worth". I know for sure my doctor cranked up

24 Year Old with Melasma - Birmingham, AL

Dr. Petro is amazing. I've spent hundreds of dollars on lightening creams, chemical peels, and I've even had a fraxel laser treatment done. None of them have even touched or lightened the melasma that is under my eyes and on my forehead. Dr. Petro recommended the Halo Laser treatment - a stronger setting in the darker areas, and a lighter setting on the rest of my face. Initially, I looked like I had a bad sunburn, and I was swollen for a few days. Two weeks out, I am so happy

Best Procedure to Reduce Smokers Lines Above Lips - Birmingham, AL

During a routine visit with a dermatologist, I inquired about the best way to get rid of my smoker lines above my lips. I was told filler was the best way to do this. I was told 3 syringes injected into my lips would help make the lines less noticeable and that they were running a special that month of 550.00 per syringe. I knew nothing about facial procedures, but I knew I didn't want my lips injected. I told them I would need to think about it before making that decision.
