Jeff had started to feel like his skin was becoming dehydrated. Additionally, his skin tone had become very off-balanced after years of sun damage had begun to accumulate and take its toll on his face. After discovering Dr. Jason Emer through social media and saw the reputation he had built for himself as the premier and leading dermatologist in the industry, completely transforming the way his patients look and feel about their skin and bodies. Upon consultation, Dr. Emer suggested treating his hyperpigmentation with the Cosmelan peel, a gold-standard peel imported from Spain that works to treat hyperpigmentation, melasma, sun damage, and for improving overall skin tone and texture. It works by inhibiting the production of tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for catalyzing melanin production. Its proprietary blend of ingredients, triggers the skin to exfoliate itself. While promoting cellular turnover, allowing for the shedding of old, damaged skin cells to be replaced with new ones, giving the patient a clear, balanced, and brightened skin tone. For about two weeks, Jeff was experiencing some expected shedding and redness. After his downtime, he could feel and see the visible difference in his skin, looking more rejuvenated and balanced than ever before.

After recently visiting the Bahamas, Jamal’s home, and spending a lot of time in the sun for a month, he had come back to LA with signs of sun damage and hyperpigmentation. Jamal wanted to address his dermatologic issues, but because of his darker skin tone, Jamal was worried about the risks that came with receiving skin treatments such as lasers and peels due to the increased risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. After discovering Dr. Emer via social media and seeing his marvelous work with patients of darker skin tones, Jamal knew he had found the right provider to efficiently and safely address his dermatologic needs. After having his skin comprehensively evaluated by Dr. Emer, Jamal received the gold-standard Cosmelan peel treatment to lighten his sunspots and hyperpigmentation. Cosmelan’s proprietary combination of ingredients works to accomplish two things. First, the peel stops tyrosinase production that reduces further hyperpigmentation from being produced. The peel then works to trigger an exfoliative response from the skin while triggering cellular turnover to shed away old, damaged skin cells with fresh, new ones. During this exfoliative stage, Jamal experienced some skin shedding and redness for up to two weeks. After this period was over, Jamal was left with brighter and rejuvenated skin with a significant reduction in both his signs of sun damage and hyperpigmentation after just one treatment.

Dr. Emer uses Bellafill to sculpt the jawline, contour the cheeks with for continuous results on a younger male patient. Many people desire to have a contoured and chiseled face. A common misconception is that traditional surgery is the only method of achieving this desired look, however with the help of injectable fillers, we can sculpt the face in a non-invasive, non-surgical manner. This patient already has a contoured look to his face but was looking to add more definition to his facial features such as his jawline, cheeks and chin. For this patient, I used Bellafill to ensure the best results that would satisfy my patient’s aesthetic desires. Bellafill is a collagen-based gel with tiny microspheres of polymethyl methacrylate inside. As it is injected, it first bulks up and then slowly descends and smoothes out in the treated area. For five years, the collagen-stimulating filler will work to keep a consistent flow of collagen in the area, delivering results that last. Bellafill can also be used to provide volume in areas where fine lines and wrinkles are present; projecting the skin so that it fills in fine lines and wrinkles. The patient is then left with contoured and projected facial features that combine for a youthful and sculpted appearance.

Johanna is a middle-aged female who has done very little to take care of her facial skin over the recent years. She has noticed fine lines and wrinkles starting to form especially around her eyes, enlarged pores, sun spots and pigmentation, as well as an overall “dull” appearance to her skin. She came to Dr. Emer looking for a more significant improvement around her eyes, but with minimal overall downtime for her full face.

To get an significant improvement in one treatment around her eyes, while also limiting the downtime on her full face, Dr. Emer combined two energy-based treatments to give her improvement in all aspects of aging such as dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage and pigmentation, as well as early drooping of the upper eyelid skin.

Renuvion radiofrequency helium plasma is the newest energy-based device for an extreme improvement in skin textural irregularities and discoloration, sun damage, and fine lines/wrinkles because it gives dramatic skin exfoliation and tightening in one treatment. This innovative treatment combines radiofrequency energy with helium gas to allow for precision resurfacing at high energies, resulting in significant improvements in skin aging, without risk of injury or skin color changes if performed meticulously by an expert. Johanna was looking for significant change in her periocular or eye area, and the Renuvion treatment was chosen to help her tighten the skin and resurface the wrinkles all in one.

Fraxel non-ablative laser resurfacing was used on the rest of her overall face to improve pigmentation, reverse sun damage, build collagen improving fine lines and wrinkles, with minimal downtime. Fraxel laser technology limits surface heat so the majority of energy is delivered below the skin’s surface to lift pigmentation, tighten skin, and build collagen long-term. All skin types can be treated, including sensitive skin types like that of Johanna, who are of hispanic/latin background and high-risk for hyperpigmentation if a laser is used improperly or without pre-treatment.

Her overall transformation was exactly what she was hoping for, giving her more clear skin with “radiance”, less wrinkles and pores, and tightening around her eyes, helping her to feel less “tired” looking. She how happy she is with her overall transformation in this story.
