"Can't I just do treatments in office and still get the same results?"
Unfortunately not. Your home regimen should be an enjoyable ritual! And believe us, this is very possible. In-office treatments can absolutely help put you on the right path, but to achieve your skin’s full potential and protect your investment, quality home care is a must. These products can include many readily available over-the-counter options, higher- grade office dispensed products, as well as prescription strength therapies. There a number of clinical lines available, but we have spent many years researching products that we believe to be the best on the market. And this list is ever-evolving! In addition, we believe using products from different lines may be more beneficial in providing a more tailored regimen to each person’s unique skin needs. Multiple ingredients should be included as they work together to improve tone, reduce wrinkles, prevent acne, and to protect against sun and environmental damage. Most dermatologists agree that sun protection is the most vital component of any regimen! Sunscreens have come a long way and should be an enjoyable aspect of your regimen. Our office is proud to offer medical and prescription grade products that have years of third-party research standing behind them. Not every product has to stretch the budget and we are happy to talk options on when to spend and when to save! Let's find a regimen that works for YOU!

PAVISE
Meet Pavise. In clinical trials, Pavise has delivered unprecedented results reducing fine lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, loss of facial volume, dark spots, and other signs of photoaging. This line of skin care has taken the dermatology world aback and set a new standard for sun and skin protection. UVA rays make up 95% of all UV exposure and penetrate deeper layers of your skin. Among other harms, UVA rays generate Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), the root cause of visible skin aging, when exposed to your skin. Even when you wear sunscreen for protection, most UV filters still generate ROS when exposed to UVA rays. ROS damages the DNA in your skin cells, resulting in fine lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, loss of facial volume, dark spots, and other visible signs of skin aging. Pavise's Dynamic Age Defense Sunscreen is a scientific breakthrough in anti-aging, preventing and reverses signs of aging by eradicating 80% of ROS, utilizing high-efficiency electron shuttling, providing the highest UVA protection possible, at PA++++, and improving absorption of bioactive ingredients, such as niacinamide and tranexamic acid, which regenerate and nourish skin.
