Removal of Bellafill from Nasolabial Folds
Aug 17, 2023
Thank you for your question. You definitely want to go to a plastic surgeon for this. Hope this helps! Dr. Dima
Would ThermiVa help fix my ugly outies?
ThermiVa For Ugly "Outies."
Aug 17, 2023
Thank you for your question! First of all, having done thousands of these treatments, your picture looks like the after photo of some women. You're being too hard on yourself. I think ThermiVa is definitely an option for you. It would be 3 treatments about a month apart. No anesthesia is required. I think it would be helpful to look at more before and after photos. Some of the results are dramatic. Get an idea of what an acceptable result would be. You know your expectations best. ...
Interested in ThermiVa, can you opt for only the internal treatment and not the external? Can you only get
Inside Treatment with ThermiVa Only
Aug 17, 2023
Thank you for your question. Yes, absolutely you can get the inside treated without the labia. Likewise, you can request to receive only one treatment with the understanding that your results will be that one one treatment. For dryness you may want to consider all 3 treatments but you can always start with one and reevaluate. The vagina is a very flexible and fully adjustable so no need to worry about getting too tight. Hope that helps! Dr. Dima
Will microneedling improve my skin texture and minimize the appearance of acne scars? Should I consider ot
Is Microneedling the Best for Acne Scarring?
Jan 30, 2023
Thank you for the question and for including a picture. As someone who had horrible cystic acne and the residual scarring I truly empathize with patients that are looking for solutions. The good news is that there are so many different and effective ways to treat acne scars. The bad news is it can't be done in 1 or 2 treatments. Likewise, microneedling without energy will not be as effective as microneedling with radiofequency energy (ex: VivaMD or Morpheus8). The best results are often come...
How dramatically can the Co2 laser improve my skin? Had severe acne breakouts when I was younger.
CO2 Laser for Improving Acne Scars
Jan 30, 2023
Thank you for your question. The good news is there are so many laser/energy based technologies that are truly amazing for acne and acne scarring. However, it's often not one treatment modality that's needed to achieve the desired results. Much depends on the type of scar. You are fair enough to have aggressive CO2 resurfacing if you are prepared for the downtime. If not, you can also consider treatments with little recovery that are radiofrequency based. Often I will combine 3+ treatments...
After finishing 8 Venus Freeze treatments, when should I go back for maintenance?
Venus Freeze Maintenance Treatments
Jan 30, 2023
This varies so much per person. I take into consideration the initial condition of your skin and your age. Generally, I recommend one treatment every 3 months. Twice a year follow up at least. When you make an appointment to get your teeth cleaned every 6 months, make a VF follow up appt. Hope this helps! Dr. Dima
I’m getting fillers in my face, will I be able to get a Venus freeze soon after?
Venus Freeze after Filler Injections?
Jan 30, 2023
Thank you for your question! Fillers and radiofrequency treatments can actually be done safely on the same day. Energy based treatments will not breakdown the hyaluronic acid. When the fillers are being prepared they are sterilized at temperatures in excess of 100 C - much higher than any temperature we apply to skin. Hope this helps! Dr. Dima

Venus Versa for fat reduction/skin tightening treatment?
One treatment of Venus
Sep 24, 2021
Thanks for the question. You should not be concerned as I'm sure the technicians are trained to follow protocol. But you should know with non-invasive treatments, one and done is not going to do it. You have to have at least 8 weekly treatments to get noticeable results. Hope this helps. Dr. Dima
Will ThermiVa only last one year even if I dont have sex?
How long does Thermiva last?
Sep 24, 2021
Thank you for your question. In my opinion, sex is not a determining factor when it comes to the duration of Thermiva results. The duration of the results depends on other factors such as age, initial degree of laxity, how many vaginal births you've had; even habits such as smoking will decrease the longevity of the effects. Typically once a year is recommended for touch ups but I find that the effects last longer - even 2 year in some people. Hope this helps! Dr. Dima
Is there a way to tighten the lower eye skin with filler?
Treatments for Tear Trough Hollowing
Sep 24, 2021
Great question and thank you for the pictures. This happens to all of us as we age and there are many solutions. I usually try to determine whether the person is looking for a quick fix or a more long term solution. Quick fixes such as filler, radiofrequency and low level lasers have very little to no downtime. High energy lasers such as CO2 or erbium require anesthesia and there is downtime. In my opinion, the best, most natural result is achieved by using multiple modalities. With...
Do I need lumpy tear trough filler dissolved?
Hyaluronidase for Tear Trough Filler
Jun 17, 2021
Thank you for your question and for including photos. When filler is injected too superficially in the tear trough area, it can look irregular and can also form a Tyndall effect (the slight blueish appearance that I believe I see in the second picture). You have a couple of options. If you can live with it and let it resolve on its own. If not, I recommend getting small amounts of hyaluronidase until it is resolved. I'm very conservative when it comes to hyaluronidase as it does not...
Do dermal fillers cause scar tissue in the long run?
Fillers and Scar Formation
Jun 17, 2021
Great question but not easy to answer as it really depends on the type of filler being used. There are fillers such as Sculptra and Bellafill that are potent biostimulants.
