IPL
This
30 minute procedure uses a machine which emits intense pulses of light
that penetrate to all levels of the skin, causing collagen and blood
vessels beneath the epidermis to constrict. The regimen calls for a
series of six full-face light treatments at three-week intervals.
Redness following the treatment lasts less than 24 hours for most
people. Visible reduction of fine lines and wrinkles occurs gradually,
over the span of a few weeks following treatment. IPL treatments are
especially good for: fine lines, particularly around the eyes and
mouth, shallow acne scars, age spots, broken blood vessels, Rosacea and
sun damage. This procedure is thought to reduce the appearance of large
pores and dark circles around the eyes, and is especially effective in
reducing chronic facial redness. It also can be used to treat sun
damage and weathered areas on the neck, arms and chest, as well as the
back of the hands. The biggest advantage of IPL treatments is that
there is no downtime. The procedure improves the general texture and
refinement of the skin according to Dr. Gary Rothfeld.
Affirm
The
first micro-thermal rejuvenation system with virtually no down-time
reduces wrinkles, stretch marks, acne scars and evens out pigmentation
and redness while increasing collagen production. Affirm incorporates
Multiplex™ technology with Combined Apex Pulses (CAP) technology - the
industry's fastest laser-based energy source-and Xenon Pulsed Light
(XPL) technology. The Affirm is a complete skin rejuvenation solution
that provides revolutionary results with less downtime than any other
laser available.

Smartlipo
The
Smartlipo laser-assisted lipolysis system is a highly efficacious
solution for destroying and permanently eliminating fat cells: A laser
fiber is introduced through a small cannula, delivering energy directly
to subcutaneous fat cells -causing them to rupture. The emitted energy
also coagulates tissue, thus inducing collagen retraction and tissue
tightening and results in a faster healing and recovery than
conventional liposuction methods. Given the cannula's small size and
gentleness of the procedure, Smartlipo is a minimally invasive
treatment that only requires local anesthesia - enhancing client
safety. Typically only one short treatment session is needed to see
remarkable results. Smart Lipo and Vaser can be done effectively on the
abdomen, "love handles", backs, thighs, hips, knees, arms, neck and
chin according to Dr. Gary Rothfeld.

Endolaser
Endolaser
is a minimally invasive method for treating large varicose veins.
Pulses of laser energy are released along the course of the vein to
seal it completely. Endolaser requires only a small nick in the skin
and local anesthesia. The patient walks out of the office and returns
to his or her normal daily routine immediately without any pain
medication. There is no hospital visit, stitches, or injection of
chemical substances. This technique can be combined with sclerotherapy
to erase any remaining spider veins.

Injectables & Fillers
Botox®
Botox®
is a simple, nonsurgical, physician-administered treatment that can
temporarily smooth moderate to severe lines in people from 18 to 65
years of age. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA). Botox® can be injected on the forehead,
between and around the eyes (crow's feet), chin and neck bands. With

Restylane®
RESTYLANE
is a crystal-clear, biodegradable gel based on a natural substance,
called hyaluronic acid. When Restylane is injected into the skin, it
causes a filling, and plumping effect that restores a softer, more
youthful appearance to the face. The result is instantaneous and
long-lasting, up to six months. Gentle and safe for your skin,
Restylane® has a highly favorable safety profile.
Sculptra®
Facial
lipoatrophy is the loss of fat beneath the skin, which can result in
sunken cheeks, indentations, and hollow eyes. Sculptra® is the first
FDA-approved product of its kind for this condition. An injectable
product that restores and corrects the signs of lipoatrophy by
replacing lost volume and smoothness. Clinical studies have shown
results lasting for up to 2 years after the first treatment session.
.
Mesotherapy Vitamin Therapy
There
is only one medical treatment proven to reduce or eliminate
cellulite-Mesotherapy. Mesotherapy can be utilized for anti-aging, spot
fat reduction and the appearance of cellulite. After being used in
France for over 50 years, doctors in the United States are now
providing this procedure. This technique where small amounts of
medication, vitamins and supplements are injected into the middle layer
of skin called the "mesoderm", will offer great results with a series
of sessions at NYC Dermatology. Slight bruising and swelling may
occur.
Juvéderm™
Juvéderm™
injectable gel is a "next-generation" dermal filler. The smooth
consistency gel helps to instantly restore your skin's volume and
smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" or
"parentheses" (the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the
corners of your mouth). Juvéderm™ is a smooth consistency gel made of
hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance in your skin that
helps to add volume and hydration. The doctor eases the gel under your
skin to provide a smooth, natural look and feel. Results last up to six
months.

InjectaLift™
InjectaLift™
is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment individually designed to help you
rediscover natural, youthful beauty, by re-filling areas of soft tissue
(fat) that have diminished with age. The InjectaLift™ is like a face
lift in a syringe, restoring youthful contours safely and effectively,
in a no-downtime procedure that takes 30 minutes or less. This
technique takes cosmetic facial filler such as Restylane®, Sculptra®
,Perlane, cosmoplast and will inject specific amounts into the areas
where youthful natural fat is depleted, to fill, lift and plump the
skin, and rejuvenate the overall appearance. Depending on the desired
outcome, Dr.Gary Rothfeld may suggest combining a variety of
non-surgical procedures or services with the Injecta-Lift,™ such as
IPL, botox, or chemical peels.
Lunchtime Face-Lift
This
new minimally invasive surgical technique can lift the face and neck in
one hour with just local anaesthia. This lifting is done while the
patient is awake and the recovery is in one week with almost no
bruising or swelling. This new and innovative technique removes 10
years of aging in one hour and will last 10 years. Also two major
advantages are that the patient's look is not changed and the hairline
is maintained. At NYC Dermatology we do this procedure.
Enzyme Hot Peel Enzymes

increase capillary flow, circulation, and stimulating the lymphatic
system. Temporarily lifts, tones, and tightens delivering an overall
glow to the skin. Perfect skin-prep for any event.
Superficial Salicylic Acid Peel
This
beta-hydroxy acid treatment will exfoliate the skin revealing a healthy
and younger you. Excellent for oily skin, acne, sun damage and
hyper-pigmented skin.

Light Chemical Peel The
light chemical peel is performed using 20% tri-chloroacetic acid. This
will remove the upper layer of the Epidermis. It is painless and
takes about 5 days to completely peel. Brown spots and fine lines will
be vastly improved and the skin will look more even toned and pore size will be diminished.
Deep Chemical Peel Phenol
based peels have the most profound effect on deep wrinkles and severe
sun damage. Recommended for light to pale complexions. Astonishing
permanent results, recovery time 2 -4 weeks. Please consult with board certified dermatologist Dr. Rothfeld.
Chemical Peeling By applying a chemical solution to the skin, mild scarring and certain types of acne may be treated. The procedure enables new, regenerated skin to appear, improving the appearance of the condition. Chemical Chemical peels have been a mainstay of Dermatology for decades. Chemical peels work by ungluing the top layer of damaged skin and discolored skin so it can peel away and reveal the fresh new skin beneath. Come into Dr. Gary Rothfelds' office to discuss the different type of chemical peels that would be appropriate for you. Chemical peeling uses a chemical solution to improve the skin's appearance. It can reduce or eliminate fine lines under the eyes and around the mouth, correct uneven skin pigmentation, remove precancerous skin growths, and soften acne or treat scars caused by acne. The procedure can also treat wrinkles caused by sun damage and scarring, as well as skin blemishes common with age and heredity. Chemical peels can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, and legs. Possible complications associated with chemical peels may include but are not limited to the following:
A chemical peel is most commonly performed for cosmetic reasons to enhance appearance and self-confidence and may be performed in conjunction with a facelift. However, a chemical peel is not a substitute for a facelift and does not prevent or slow the aging process. Chemical Peels?Phenol, trichloroacetic acid (TCA), and alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) are used for chemical peels. The precise formula used may be adjusted for each patient.
Alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) such as glycolic, lactic, or fruit acids are the mildest of the peel formulas and produce light peels that can often provide smoother, brighter-looking skin. AHA peels may be used to accomplish the following: Generally, no anesthesia is needed for AHA peels since they cause only a slight stinging sensation during application. Protecting skin from the sun is important following AHA peels.
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) can be used in many concentrations and is used to accomplish the following:
Phenol is the strongest of the chemical solutions and produces a deep peel. A phenol peel is mainly used to accomplish the following: Recovery may be slow and complete healing may take several months. After a phenol peel, new skin may lose its ability to produce pigment. The skin will be lighter and will always have to be protected from the sun. About the procedure:The procedure involves a chemical solution that is applied to the skin. The solution causes a layer of skin to separate and peel off. The new, regenerated skin underneath is usually smoother, less wrinkled, and more even in color than the old skin.
