Skin Care Tips, Notes & More

Beverly Hills skin care goes way beyond facials, creams or toners and not as deep as plastic surgery. In fact, the most popular forms of skin care in Beverly Hills are non-surgical cosmetic procedures like laser skin resurfacing, microdermabrasion, Botox injections and chemical peels.

To learn more about these popular forms of Beverly Hills skin care, keep reading for a crisp description of each procedure along with a tip on where to find a fantastic doctor.

Laser Skin Rejuvenation - Let the Light Shine

Also known as laser skin rejuvenation, this treatment uses laser light therapy to penetrate the skin, remove dead cells, improve skin tone, reduce hyper pigmentation and reduce the appearance of fine lines or scars.

Because laser skin resurfacing only takes a few minutes, it's a very popular Beverly Hills skin care procedure. The actual treatment can be painful, so most patients receive a local anesthetic and expect a recovery time of between 1 and 10 days.

Microdermabrasion: Revealing a New You

Microdermabrasion is a common Beverly Hills skin care treatment that can be done by an aesthetician and does not require the assistance of a doctor or medical professional. It's non-invasive and designed to be done as part of an ongoing course of treatments.

Microdermabrasion is essentially an extremely powerful exfoliation treatment. It uses an abrasion device and a chemical solution to slough away dead skin cells and stimulate new skin cell growth, revealing brighter skin.

Because microdermabrasion is an abrasion process, skin can become sensitive or red for several days after treatment. Patients are advised to avoid sun exposure or any skin irritants for a period of time.

Botox Treatment for Your Appearance

Botox is the most popular Beverly Hills skin care treatment on the strip today. Because the drug is inexpensive, non-invasive and has limited side effects, it has quickly become the belle of the skin care ball. Customers use Botox to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and limit the function of facial muscles to prevent the formation or worsening of existing wrinkles.

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel can take anywhere from 10 minutes to 3 hours per treatment, but it's long-lasting and quite effective for patients dealing with sun-damaged skin, large pores, freckles or skin with uneven tone or pigmentation. Chemical peels are also used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and moderate scars.

A chemical peel is performed in office by a plastic surgeon, dermatologist, registered nurse or a licensed esthetician. A deep peel may require anesthesia, but most light peels do not.
