Can Ultherapy help me in removing the saggy skin of my droopy upper eyelid?

Droopy Lid
Aug 15, 2016

Hi Soniichia,We do Ultherapy for patients who have your same request. We also do recommend going in to your local Board Certified Dermatology Practice. Ultherapy cost for the brow lift is typically $475, full eye is typically $1,000 which also includes crows feet, under eye, and brow lift. We also give patients the realistic expectations of your treatments and definitely take the time to consult with you regarding your questions.

If I get burning from rubbing my eyes from using Latisse, should I just stop?

Burning from rubbing eyes
Aug 15, 2016

Hi Barb in Omaha,Our office usually recommends using Latisse at night. The theory is that the product would migrate to your lower lashes. We also do advise our patients to cleanse their face in the morning with a non-comedogenic cleanser just to make sure the product does not sit on your skin throughout the day. If the purpose of the product to be used at night is to have the product migrate to your lower lashes, we would also advise that you cleanse your face during the…

Is Acne Surgery Covered by Insurance?

Acne Surgery and Insurance
Aug 11, 2016

Hello, yes generally acne surgery for the treatment of active acne is covered by most insurance plans. That being said, to avoid surprises it would be a good idea to double check with your insurance company to see if there will be any cost to you (deductible, copayment, etc). Now, if the procedure is for treatment of acne scars or pigment left over from previous acne, this is considered a cosmetic procedure and insurance does not cover this.

Can aldactone and birth control pill be taken together?

Aldactone and birth control
Aug 11, 2016

Aldactone and oral contraception are very nice treatments for hormonal acne in women. They are safe for use together. Sometimes, some patients’ potassium level can be raised by Aldactone and by certain oral birth controls, and your physician may recommend a blood test depending on your personal history and which birth control you are using. I recommend following up with your dermatologist if you are concerned.

Accutane & Sun – Can sunlight through a window cause problems for my skin while on Accutane?

Accutane and Sun
Aug 11, 2016

Accutane can make you more sensitive to the sun. In my practice we recommend SPF 30 or more for daily use. This is especially important when you know you will have sun exposure or when you are on medications that can make you more susceptible to burn. Also, Accutane can cause dryness which can manifest as “tightness,” as well as making the complexion temporarily more flushed and red. It would be a good idea to start using SPF 30 or more daily, and follow up with your…

Will Surgical Dermabrasion improve or repair Indented depressed scars on my forehead?

Surgical Dermabrasion
Aug 10, 2016

Hi JamesPatterson, Surgical Dermabrasion was an older form of Dermabrasion, there are now options such as Microdermabrasion. If you’ve tried an excision and also Microneedling with little to no improvement, we do suggest patients look into Microneedling with PRP for scars. These treatments do require a physician evaluation, make sure to check out your local American Academy Dermatology website to find your nearest Dermatologist or also your local well trusted…
