Cosmetic procedures are gaining popularity. With New anti-aging products and techniques, plus lower costs, risks, and down time, minimally invasive dermatology treatments are a great alternative to surgical rejuvenation. Here are some of the top, fast dermatology treatments in Virginia.
BOTOX
First, let’s talk about Botox. Botulinum Toxin Type A is perhaps the most popular, and well-known cosmetic treatment. With over 6.7 million procedures a year, this treatment holds the top spot on our list. Botox reduces the appearance of frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. Muscle movements exaggerate these expression lines. So, Botox temporarily interrupts the signals to the muscle. This smooths the lines without affecting your natural expression.
Dermal Fillers 
Next, we have dermal fillers. Injectable dermal fillers come in a wide variety of materials. From synthesized hyaluronic acid, to collagen and more, there are many types of dermal filler and each has a specific use. Dermal fillers can fill in lines and grooves, plump the lips, restore lost volume, and smooth tissues that have lost their natural elasticity. Fillers are uniquely designed for use in specific areas of the face, lips, cheeks, eye area and hands.
Chemical Peels
Another popular treatment is chemical peels. There are many chemical peels to choose from. Ranging from gentle exfoliating and hydrating masks to medical-grade skin resurfacing peels. Chemical peels are a great way to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Additionally, they improve uneven skin tone and texture, remove sun damage and dark spots, treat acne and rosacea, and stimulate collagen production. Peels are a great alternative to plastic surgery, but they also work well for patients who want the same results of laser rejuvenation but aren’t good candidates.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is one of the most common laser procedures. Hair removal is safe and effective. Laser hair removal treatments remove body hair for a prolonged period. This eliminates the hassles of shaving and waxing, and all the irritation that comes with both. Furthermore, laser hair removal works on the face, under arms, legs, bikini area, chest and back.
Microdermabrasion
Finally, microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion involves a rotating diamond microfile. It exfoliates and mildly resurfaces the skin by removing the surface layer of dead skin cells. This also stimulates the growth of new, healthier, clearer skin. Microdermabrasion reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, surface sun damage, and more.
