SPRING NEWSLETTER
AboutSkin participated in the KYBELLA FDA trial on "double-chin" treatment--Now approved!

AboutSkin Dermatology is the only office in this region of the country to have participated in the clinical trial on Kybella. We are excited about the announcement of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of Kybella, for the treatment for adults with "double-chin" fat.

 

The active ingredient in Kybella is similar to the deoxycholic acid that is found in the body, which helps the body absorb fats. Kybella's mechanism of action is to destroy fat cell walls. When properly injected by a trained physician, the drug dissolves fat cells in the "double-chin" area.

  

We are presently the only office in the region experienced with this product, and Dr. Cohen has been designated to train other physicians on this procedure. Kybella is administered through a series of injections into the fat tissue in the submental area (double-chin).

 

AboutSkin is excited to start offering it

 as soon as it is commercially available in the new few weeks!

  

Ramp up your skin protection

Non-melanoma skin cancer affects more than 1 million people in the United States every year. Some recent studies indicate DNA repair topicals can play a role in helping to treat some forms of sun-damage. Broad-spectrum sunscreens, topical retinoids and antioxidants are today's standard in current prevention measures, however, adding a DNA repair agent can slow the rate of some cell damage and also strengthen the immune response to tumor cells. With this new data, it confirms that DNA repair gives a new level in skin protection!

Stop by and speak to one of our Skin Specialists who can help you select which DNA repair is right for you. With options including "Urbane Renewel" (serum), "Cream, No Sugar" (cream), and "Stop The Clock" (sunscreen) we have many options for your personal skin care goals. Or, we can customize a product with DNA repair added to boost your preferred topical for your specific needs.

Give your skin a
"one-two punch"
with
INFINI

Radiofrequency (RF) energy has gained popularity in skin rejuvenation and skin tightening. Infini is giving results with very minimal downtime (1-2 days of redness). As the tiny columns delivered to the skin address texture and fine lines by stimulating collagen growth, the radiofrequency component addresses skin laxity. With this "two-in-one" treatment, patients are able to target more than one concern with minimal downtime (a series of 3-4 treatments is recommended). Using a growth factor post procedure (like Biopelle's Tensage Ampoules) is a great way to boost your results.
BUNDLE UP WITH
SUNSCREEN

With May being Skin Cancer Awareness month, we want to make sure you are ready for those sunny Summer days. By purchasing one of our sunscreen bundles, which includes 4 EltaMD products, you can stay covered.
