We continue to see very good results with the Ematrix for acne scars and contour irregularities of the skin. Hyperpigmentation and fine wrinkles can also be improved with ematrix, but the treatments should be combined with topical skin creams and chemical peels to drive out hyperpigmentation from the skin.

Absolutely. I use the eMatrix technology which is radiofrequency, not laser on patient Fitzpatrick I-VI. It is colorblind and can be used on any skin type even the darkest tones safely and effectively.
We don't perform eMatrix or any procedures in our office if a patient is confirmed to be pregnant. But there are patients who get cosmetic procedures all around the country every day that find out a day or a week later that they are pregnant. A simple test you can do is buy a pregnancy test and...
