Hopkins Dermatology End the Year on a High Note

E INVITE YOU TO END THE year on a high note with a visit to Hopkins Dermatology. By providing multiple treatment options, such as facials, lasers, injections and premier skin care products, Dr. Hopkins is able to tailor antiaging for each individual to meet their personal needs. Results look natural for both men and women. Treatment options for all age groups are available. Starting treatments at a younger age to prevent signs of aging has become a popular trend. Optimizing the best of what is currently available in cosmetic dermatology is Dr. Hopkins’ emphasis. Fotona4D: Non-Invasive Laser Facial This is a series of synergistic, non-invasive laser treatments of both the exterior facial and interior oral cavity, enabling full-thickness contraction of collagen for persistent, nodowntime tightening and volumization, without injectables. With Fotona4D laser wavelengths and four treatment modes, anti-aging is comprehensively approached from four different levels, working deeper, medial and superficial connective structures of the skin as well as targeting imperfections. A full course of Fotona4D consists of four separate treatment sessions. The four “dimensions” of Fotona4D refer to four distinct modes of treatment. All of them are harnessed for aesthetic use in concert to combat facial and neck aging. This system grants the opportunity to achieve face lifting with a cumulative, synergistic effect, with little or no downtime or anesthesia.

Other exciting features of the Fotona that are available include: • Permanent Hair Reduction Using the hand scanner this becomes a fast and painless procedure for back or legs and is optimal for men and women. Fotona’s Nd:YAG lasers incorporate revolutionary pulse-control technology and a proprietary three-dimensional treatment pattern to provide safe and effective hair reduction. Unlike other wavelengths, only Nd:YAG is safe to use on all skin types. Fotona’s innovative system effectively targets surface treatment areas while leaving surrounding tissues unaffected. The success of hair reduction treatments depends largely on a patient’s skin and hair type, as well as the skills and treatment insight of the practitioner.
For fuller lips consider Juvéderm Volbella, which has been found to effectively increase lip fullness and soften the appearance of lines around the mouth. For younger looking hands, Radiesse is an effective treatment that corrects volume loss in the skin.
Injectables The jaw line diminishes as we age, but with Sculptra and Voluma injections, bone loss can be restored and collagen growth reactivated. Using the PHI technique, I am able to restore proper balance, ratio and contouring for a more youthful look and avoiding a “done” face. We are excited to be offering Kybella, the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells under the chin to improve your profile. Kybella might be right for you if you’re bothered (unhappy, self-conscious, embarrassed) by fat under the chin, also known as submental fullness. If you feel the condition makes you look older or heavier than you actually are, you don’t want to have surgery and you eat well and exercise, but submental fullness does not go away, Kybella could be the answer.
