A patient recently told me that she felt that she had damaged her skin after years of exposure in the sun and loved coming in to get facials with our amazing esthetician, Merlin.  However, she wanted to know if there was anything that she could do at home to help reverse the signs of aging and give her skin back the moisture and suppleness that it used to have.

These 3 products will revitalize your skin's texture and tone. All the benefits of microdermabrasion, at home.

I recommend the Lift MD Aesthetics Vital Intensive Serum, Miro-Mineral Resurfacing Treatment and the Mineral Vitalizing Complex.  The Vital Intensive Serum and the Mineral Vitalizing Complex can be used every day while the Micro-Mineral Resurfacing Treatment should be used once or twice a week.

The Resurfacing Treatment uses semi-precious gemstones to buff away the dead layer of skin and smooth and refine the texture.  The Vital Intensive Serum acts as a moisturizer, while the Mineral Vitalizing Complex firms and revives your skin’s texture.  If you use theses products consistently you will notice a difference in your complexion because each product is designed to be like a vitamin boost for your skin.

If you’d like more information on these products or other treatments or procedures offered at Lift MD Aesthetics then please visit http://www.liftmd.com or call 310.285.0400

Perlane-L Now Available at Lift MD Aesthetics® by Garo Kassabian MD, FACS, Lift MD Aesthetics®

Posted on April 26, 2013 | Leave a comment

By Garo Kassabian MD, FACS,  Lift MD Aesthetics®

Perlane-L™ is a cosmetic dermal filler similar to Restylane-L™. These cosmetic dermal fillers add volume within the skin.  They consist of hyaluronic acid.  In the body, natural hyaluronic acid provides volume and fullness to the skin.  As we age, we have less of this natural hyaluronic acid and lines and wrinkles develop.  The difference between Restylane-L™ and Perlane-L™ is that Perlane-L is made up of larger particles and is injected deeper into the skin.  Therefore, Perlane-L™ is best for those deeper lines and wrinkles. The ingredient in both Perlane-L™ and Restylane-L™ that makes them different than their predecessors, Perlane® and Restylane® is lidocaine, a local anesthetic.  This makes the injections less painful than before.

Perlane-L™ uses the hyaluronic acid to replace the lost volume to your skin and restores youthful contours to smooth away moderate to severe wrinkles and folds. After treatment with Perlane-L the hydrophilic or “water loving” nature of the hyaluronic acid molecules allows them to bind many times their weight in water as they slowly break down.  This process is what helps maintain volume for about six months.

Administered under the expertise of  Dr. Garo Kassabian, MD,FACS, a dual board certified cosmetic surgeon at Lift MD Aesthetics®, you can rest assured that your treatment with Perlane-L™ will be individualized to your needs to achieve maximum results.  You’ll still look like yourself—just rejuvenated! Check out our entire line of skin care products at www.liftmd.com.

Dr. Garo Kassabian, MD, FACS is a board certified plastic surgeon and founder of Lift MD Aesthetics, a full service surgical center and spa located in the heart of Beverly Hills.  If you are interested in learning more about Dr. Kassabian or Lift MD Aesthetics or are interested in a consultation, please call our office at 310-285-0400 or check us out at www.liftmd.com .

Restylane-L™ Now Available at Lift MD Aesthetics® by Garo Kassabian MD,FACS, Lift MD Aesthetics®

Restylane-L™ is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid that restores fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe wrinkles and folds such as those from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).  The hyaluronic acid replaces the lost volume and restores youthful contours. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. It’s job is to help provide fullness and elasticity.  Over time your skin loses hyaluronic acid and as it diminishes, skin loses volume and increases the chances for wrinkles and lines to appear.  As you age, lips lose their plumpness and Restylane-L™ restores that fullness and provides a smoother contour.  It can augment your lips as well. The average Restylane-L™ treatment lasts six months or longer. The difference between the original Restylane® and Restylane-L™ is the addition of Lidocaine, a local anesthetic.  The addition of a local anesthetic makes the treatment less uncomfortable.

Under the expertise of Garo Kassabian, MD, FACS, a board certified cosmetic surgeon with Lift MD Aesthetics®, you can receive this rejuvenating cosmetic beauty treatment for a natural, younger-looking you!  You’ll still look like yourself—just rejuvenated!  Check out our entire line of skin care products and systems at www.liftmd.com.
