Botox, HCG, Micropeels, Laser for Hyperhydrosis

It’s been a long time since you heard from me, so I’ll try to bring you up to date on happenings at Daws Wellness.

We’re really excited about a new treatment for axillary hyperhydrosis-excessive underarm sweating. In the past, patients with this embarrassing and expensive condition were treated with Botox. It’s expensive but it works. Problem is, it only lasts about four months so the treatment has to be repeated. With our new laser, we now can offer a permanent solution.  The laser energy destroys sweat glands thus eliminating the problem.  The procedure is done in the office using mild sedation and local numbing. A nice side benefit is it also permanently reduces hair.

We are excited about adding MicroPeel and MicroPeel Plus to our skin care regimen. These are acid peels with dermaplaning and cryotherapy. As opposed to laser treatments, they require no pre-procedure preparation and there is no downtime.  When used in a series of four to six, they result in healthy,beautiful skin which can be easily maintained.

The HCG diet continues to be very popular.  We have had great success helping hundreds of patients lose weight. Due to our high volume, our supplier has cut the cost of  HCG  and we are passing the savings along to you. So HCG is half price until July 22. To introduce more people to HCG, we are having for a limited time a group consult, overview of the diet, and lunch consisting of  dishes from the HCG diet cookbook-all for only $20. Space is limited so call now.

Botox continues to be popular. It’s an old standby for facial lines and wrinkles-the original uses- but we also use it for severe headaches, excessive underarm sweating, masseter hypertrophy-common in those of oriental descent, and certain anal conditions.  Our present special is 25% off filler and $25. off Botox.

PRO-FRACTIONAL

We are very excited to announce the arrival of our newest laser-the Pro-Fractional by Sciton. One of only a few such machines in the Upstate, it enables us to perform multiple treatments from one platform. Let’s talk about the Pro-Fractional first. It allows us to address issues of skin texture and tone in a minimally invasive manner. The laser creates hundreds of microscopic channels at calculated intervals  and as it heals, new collagen is laid down resulting in improvement in wrinkles, vertical lip lines, lax skin of the cheeks and around the eyes, acne scars and skin pigmentation. The depth of the channel is calculated according to patient need and extra heat can be added for skin tightening. Treatments are done using topical numbing and healing is fast. Best results are obtained by combining Pro-Fractional with other modalities such as Micro-Laser Peel, Botox or fillers although stand alone treatments are sometimes all that is needed.

Another feature on this unit is Pro-Lipo Plus. We have been performing suction assisted liposuction which works well but extra skin such as after abdominal liposuction has to be excised. The new Sciton uses two different wavelengths of laser energy, one to breakdown the fat cell allowing its easy removal and another to tighten the skin, thus avoiding long incisions.

Other functions include Microlaser Peel, an ablative procedure with variable depths to treat surface irregularities and pigment problems, along with wavelengths to do laser skin rejuvenation, treat acne, scars and vascular abnormalities. The vascular treatments are a perfect complement to our varicose vein closure and sclerotherapy treatments.

In summary, we are very happy to be able to offer this latest advance in technology to our patients.
