Question

I'm 51, I don't get sun, don't smoke or drink. I've had 2 facelifts, recently had meso botox. I've done several rounds of Accutane over the years and microneedling once. My skin is oily and red and I can't wear foundation. I don't have rosacea, just ugly skin. What the least painful way to help this? My skin is super sensitive.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis.  We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .
