Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Can I do hifu/Ulthera one month after having my fillers and Botox done? Will it affect the results?
Ulthera after Botox and Filler
Apr 29, 2017
Ulthera is great combined with fillers, Botox, and other modalities.  It is safe and shouldn’t compromise your results to have the Ulthera procedure one month after Botox or Fillers.  You can do the procedure even sooner if your physician knows how to visualize the filler with the Ulthera ultrasound and avoid it.
Most effective way to remove permanent brow makeup?
Eyebrow tattoo regret
Apr 29, 2017
We see eyebrow tattoo regret on a weekly basis at my office.  Our best results have been combining Q switched 1064  (for the dark pigment) and Q switched 532 lasers (the red and pink leftover color) to remove the unwanted tattoo.  Make sure that you go to an Doctor with plenty of experience as these tattoos are tricky to remove! 
How many PICO Genesis treatments are needed to see effects?
Picogenesis
Apr 29, 2017
Hi – we love our Pico laser.  It usually takes between 2-5 treatments to have a substantial effect.  Less treatments for dark spots and pigmented lesions, and more treatments for refractory (hard to treat) melasma.  For the melasma, we have to use very low settings  to minimize an inflammatory response.  Anti-aging effects can be seen in a couple of treatments.
I had the suttle Belotero lip fillers last night my lips are quite swollen, is this normal?
Lip Swelling
Apr 29, 2017
Lip swelling this soon after Belotero is completely normal.  At this stage cool packs are still helpful. After 48 hours you may find warm compresses beneficial.  I cannot tell what the white spot is on your lip – you should call your Doctor’s office if you are concerned.
Can I get some kind of surgery to my my fingers/hand less fat, more feminine like?
Hand Fat
Apr 29, 2017
I am not aware of any solution to your problem except for the passage of time.  As you age your hands will get thinner and thinner.  Most of my patients want fat injected into their hands.  So, try to embrace the fat you hands have now….they will look great as you age.
About how many sessions would it take to remove a tattoo 0.5 inches tall, and 1.5 inches wide? (phot
Tattoo removal number of sessions
Apr 29, 2017
The number of session that a tattoo will take depends on several factors.Density of the ink, color, location and your skin tone.  The type of laser also makes a huge difference due to technologic differences.  Using the Enlighten III by Cutera, I would estimate your tattoo to take 4 sessions to “treat to complete”  Using my q-switch Harmony would take more like 7 or 8 sessions.
Enlighten tattoo removal, how effective is this laser on color tattoos?
Enlighten is fantastic
Apr 29, 2017
The Enlighten III is our go to laser for tattoo removal now.  It allows for 3 different wavelengths to be used (1064 for black, 532 for red and yellow, and 670 for blues and greens).  Because the laser has Nano second as well as Pico second delivery, it is the most versatile laser available for this indication.
