Skin Treatments in Scottsdale, AZ

skinpen microneedling

Microneedling in Scottsdale makes use of your skin’s natural healing ability to help achieve your cosmetic goals. The treatment’s tiny microneedles encourage new collagen to develop, minimizing the appearance of fine lines, scars, and wrinkles. The procedure is quick and painless, taking only 15 minutes to complete.

In addition to wrinkled and sun-damaged skin, microneedling can treat acne scars and other skin irregularities. It is most commonly used on the face, but it can also be used to smooth out stretch marks on other parts of the body, such as the thighs or stomach.

Microneedling’s main benefit is increased collagen synthesis. Collagen levels decline with age, creating wrinkles and sagging. With increased collagen production, these skin issues are naturally resolved. Unlike some other treatments, microneedling can be used on a wide range of skin types and tones. It is appropriate for men and women who want to get rid of scars, wrinkles, or hyperpigmentation.

VI Peel

Reduce the appearance of a number of skin issues with the VI Peel. The VI Peel is a customized peel treatment based on your skin type and concerns. We can also add Botox to your session for impressive fine-line reduction and optimal results.

The VI Peel treats enlarged pores, sun spots, sagging skin, acne scars, fine lines, acne, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. The new skin layers look youthful and glowing.

People with a fair to medium skin tone are ideal candidates for a VI Peel. It is not recommended for people with a darker skin tone due to hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation risks. This peel is also not ideal for patients with active skin infections and for pregnant or nursing women.

At your VI Peel consultation, your skin will be evaluated and your desired goals will be discussed. Treatment details will also be discussed, along with price, pre- and post-treatment instructions, and more.

At the start of your treatment session, your skin will be cleansed and degreased to maximize peel absorption. The peel will be applied in layers, with breaks in between. The VI Peel will be left on your skin for a few hours before it is removed with a special towelette.

After the VI Peel treatment, you can go home with a post-peel kit. Your face might feel itchy with mild discomfort, but a hydrocortisone cream will help. Do not pick at your skin—wait for the peeling skin to fall off naturally. Once it has, you will be able to enjoy youthful and clear skin.

Dermaplane

This amazing treatment produces immediate results with no downtime and can be performed as a standalone treatment or prior to other skin treatments to increase their effectiveness. Dermaplane treatments are utilized to remove peach fuzz, which helps products penetrate deeper into the skin, makeup goes on more smoothly and skin feels and appears softer.  For optimal results, monthly Dermaplane treatments are recommended.

Peels

At Perfect Dose we offer a wide variety of medical-grade chemical peels that can be customized to your specific skin type and concern, with downtime ranging from “go back to work” to aggressive peels. Sun exposure, acne, and aging can leave your skin tone uneven, wrinkled, spotted and/or scarred. Chemical peels are highly effective in addressing different skin concerns such as acne, melasma, sun damage, discoloration, and aging skin. Peels are safe, cause minimal discomfort, and can be done at different depths (light, medium or deep) — depending on your desired results. Deeper peels produce more dramatic results, but also involve longer recovery times.

Most patients can benefit from medical-grade peels. To find out if you’re a candidate for medical-grade peels, consult with one of our providers at our office!
