I’ve been to Dr. Kwan for years and have had nothing but positive outcomes to every treatment. From tattoo removal, to laser hair removal, and even general dermatological needs. He is brilliant and his staff are all amazing. I fully trust him and highly recommend his practice.
I love Dr. Kwan, his staff - especially Janine, and the beautiful office. I've seen quite a few dermatologists in my day, and he is my favorite. He's done everything from removing my tattoo, to skin checks, botox, fixing filler (from someone else, obviously), lasers, and more. One of the things I love most about Dr. Kwan is that he will dissuade you from a procedure if you don't need it. He has a gentle demeanor and natural approach. I look forward to all of my appointments here.
I am pregnant and was struggling to find the safest treatment for my recently onset acne. Kwan dermatology was able to book my appointment the same day I called inquiring about a consultation. The office was beautiful, staff were friendly and helpful, and I started my new prescription and treatment the same day of my appointment. I highly recommend Kwan dermatology. I had a wonderful experience.
I am so grateful to Dr. Kwan and his kind, knowledgable staff. I am confident in their skills and comforted by their genuine care. I have seen remarkable improvement to my melasma due to the Clear & Brilliant treatment.
*Professional, warm, attentive, thorough, great experience altogether. A relaxing hour receiving quality medical treatment. Definitely recommend the establishment and this particular services to all my friends.
Dr Kwan is a very skilled and kind dermatologist. He has been my Dr for years and has been wonderful from yearly skin cancer screenings, adult acne, melasma treatment and Botox. Office is beautiful, runs on time and makes everything easy.
Awesome! I have been Dr. Kwan's patient for over 18 years and he has done laser hair removal, laser resurfacing and general dermatologiy for me. A delightful experience with Dr. Kwan and his team. Dr. Kwan helped my daughter growing up with acne and she continues to see him for hair removal and any other skin treatments.
I visited to have a consultation about Pico Way laser to remove dark spots or age spots. The office staff were very friendly and was told of the Pros and Cons about the laser for a non Caucasian skin. I went and proceeded with the procedure anyways. Amazingly the targeted spots are gone within 7 days. Needless to say I am a happy camper since I have been looking for a procedure that do not cost much but effective. It cost me only $350.00 for the targeted spots compared to other procedures like Fraxel which cost me $3000.00 without any improvements. So if you are Asian or non- Caucasian and wants to remove those pesky dark spots on your face, hand and body. This is the machine for you. Painless, Cheap but very effective. Dr. Kwan...I cannot thank you enough. I will visit the office soon for the before and after photos.
Their clinic is expert in terms of skin treatment but not for lip fillers. Your lip desire is important, however, the Doctor is lack of art skills (e.g lip dramatic effect, plump lip, symmetrical lip)
Placing ice packs on an area to lose fat would be unsafe. You would risk damaging your skin and developing scarring. Popsicle panniculitis happened when the ice was placed against the inside of the mouth, against the creek. This mucosa is much thinner that the skin and would transmit the cold more easily to the cheek fat pads. Plus this is an undesirable medical condition. Coolsculpting is a safe and tested treatment that is more than just freezing the fat. It does it in a very controlled manner, has safety features and also has a gradually suction and massage. However, you ask a good theoretical question.
Coolsculpting costs between $700-1000 per applicator. Most people require around 2-4 small applicators per treatment and one treatment may be enough depending on the size of the area.
Coolsculpting is permanent meaning that if you maintain your body weight, the fat shouldn't come back. The number of treatments is dependent on how much you want to lose. Expect 20% reduction per applicator.
Slim lip of and Coolsculpting are completely different treatments. Slim lipo is invasive and is more akin to traditional liposuction. Coolsculpting is non-invasive. The candidates are completely different too. Slim lipo can remove larger areas of fat and has downtime. Coolsculpting is better for smaller localized areas of fat and has no downtime. You should have a consult to get accurate pricing and see what makes more sense for your body.
Yes, Coolsculpting definitely works as long as the applicators are applied correctly. You can expect about 20% reduction of the fat in the treatment area. Usually a second treatment can be done around 3 months later.
