Devices, Injectables, and Procedures offered at Art of Skin MD Body Boot Camp Event, April 3-14, 2023
We have provided some helpful categories below to breakdown all of the amazing packages we have created for our patients at the Body Boot Camp Event.
Sculptra
Sculptra Aesthetic (poly-L-lactic acid) is one of the most popular injectable procedures we perform in the clinic. This biodegradable compound is injected in areas of bone and fat loss; poly-l-lactic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide and water. In its place, Sculptra stimulates the body’s wound healing machinery to make new structural type I collagen. It is used as a gradual but meaningful and long-lasting collagen stimulator to rejuvenate the face and body. While Dr. Palm uses it commonly on the face, she also utilizes the collagen stimulating effects on the body to attack skin laxity. Areas of successful treatment on the body include the buttocks, thighs, arms, and knees. Art of Skin MD is recognized as a national Sculptra leader. Dr. Palm has written four published journal articles, a book chapter, and conducted four studies related to Sculptra.
Ultherapy
Ultherapy is an ultrasound-based skin lifting and tightening device. When performed in capable and well-trained hands, it delivers outstanding results in terms of skin tightening of the face, brows, jawline, neck, and chest. April DeMaggio, PA-C, is a phenomental Ultherapy provider. Her expert eye, advanced appreciation of complex facial and neck anatomy, as well as her kind hand and heart make treatment effective, safe, and comfortable. A single Ultherapy treatment is FDA-approved for 12 months duration, but clinical results often last 18-24 months. It is an excellent complement to procedures like facial fillers, Sculptra, and even Instalift.
Protege Elite
Protege Elite is a monopolar radiofrequency (RF) device that is used for skin tightening. It is great at targeting crepey skin around the eye. It helps to tighten and lift both the upper and lower eyelid region through a series of treatments. A single treatment session lasts about 20-30 minutes and is comfortable and relaxing.
Emface (New!)
Art of Skin MD is the FIRST practice in San Diego to provide EMFACE. EMFACE combines HIFES (High Intensity Focused Electrical Stimulation) and RF energy to tone cheek and forehead muscles to improve brow position and jawline definition. Dr. Melanie Palm is one of a few elite group of physicians nationwide to unveil this non-invasive, non-surgical, no pain approach to nonsurgical facial tightening and skin rejuvenation. Dr. Palm serves as a clinical investigator, advisory board member, speaker and consultant for BTL, the company that makes EMFACE.
What is EMFACE?
EMFACE is a state-of-the-art radiofrequency and electrostimulation platform. It is FDA-cleared for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for selected medical conditions. It is a no downtime, pain-free, nonsurgical means of building muscle tone to specific cheek and forehead muscles through HIFES and improving skin quality through RF.
Like other muscles in our body, facial muscles thin and lose volume with age. Treating atrophic muscle groups on the face may provide an effective, nonsurgical means of tissue lifting, and muscle rejuvenation.
EMFACE creates facial muscle contractions through nerve depolarization–yielding better muscle tone and increased muscle mass to treated areas of the face. EMFACE results are backed by 7 clinical studies that demonstrate increases in collagen and elastin production, skin lifting, and increases in muscle mass and tone to specific cheek and forehead muscles.
What Results are Typical with EMFACE?
BTL, the manufacturer of EMFACE, conducted multiple studies on HIFES/RF technology to demonstrate its effects on facial muscles and skin. Clinical studies measured muscle changes by imaging (such as ultrasound and MRI studies), monitored skin quality changes, compared photos before and after treatment, and collected patient satisfaction with the procedure.
On average, the following were achieved in EMFACE clinical studies on healthy patients:
- 37% reduction of facial wrinkles in treated areas
- 30% increase in muscle tone
- 19% increase in muscle density
- 23% improvement in lift of face
- 26% increase in collagen
- Two-fold increase in elastin production
Emsculpt NEO
Emsculpt NEO debuted in late 2020 and is a huge advancement in noninvasive body contouring. It simultaneously treats unwanted fat and builds muscle. It can be used in the buttocks and abdomen to strengthen the core and boost the derriere.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is cryolipolysis, or freezing of unwanted fat – leading to its permanent removal. A single treatment reduces about 15-20% of the fat in an area. A series of treatments are recommended and this is performed in the comfort of our office – you can even watch Netflix or play on your iPad as you receive treatment. This is a tried-and-true treatment to tackle unwanted bulges of fat that have been resistant to diet and exercise.
Emtone
Emtone combines monopolar radiofrequency with acoustic wave therapy (sound waves) to disrupt and heat bound down tissues and areas of skin laxity and irregularity. It is extremely helpful at smoothing areas of cellulite such as the back of the thighs. It is also a popular and comfortable procedure for skin tightening – particularly around the knees, thighs, lower abdomen, and arms.
Emsculpt
Emsculpt uses HIFEM technology to supraphyisiologically contract muscle, building muscle mass and increasing muscle tone. Emsculpt is used to strengthen the abdominal core, tighten the tushy, or tone arms and legs.
Radiesse
Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite) is an injectable dermal filler used to correct deep facial folds and wrinkles. It is also FDA-approved for hand rejuvenation. Radiesse has a similar composition to that of mineralized bone. It is a longer-term filler with results lasting approximately 9 – 12 months. In addition to its immediate skin plumping and wrinkle reducing effects, Radiesse also stimulates your body’s own natural collagen production in the injection area.
VI Peel
VI Peel treatments are designed to lift pigment, remove sun damage, alleviate acne and scarring, and fight fine lines and wrinkles. This medium-depth chemical peel is comfortable during application and causes peeling around day 3 to 5. Results can be seen in as little as 7 days. The VI Peel is completed as a series of three treatments and can be used on all skin types.
Laser Hair Removal (NEW Body Boot Camp package!)
Laser hair removal is a permanent means of reducing unwanted hair. Laser treatment sessions are completed as a series of treatment, spaced approximately 3 to 6 weeks apart. An average treatment session will lead to an approximate 20% reduction in dark, unwanted hairs.
Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures in the United States. During treatment, highly concentrated beams of light target the bulb of each hair follicle. The pigment in the hair follicles absorb the light which damages the follicle bulb and destroys the hair follicle. Only pigmented hairs can be targeted – the darker and coarser the hair the more successfully a laser can “find” unwanted hair. Blond, red, and white hair do not respond well to laser hair removal treatments.
