Beau Visage Aesthetics

No matter who you are, living with acne can feel like a real curse. Even though effective treatments exist today, acne can be persistent. Dr. Moazemi is specially trained in the successful treatment of acne. If you have acne that is not responding to other therapies, visit Beau Visage Aesthetics for a one-on-one session so we can help you find the right acne treatment that will provide you with the results you want.There are several types of acneWhiteheads:Medically labeled as Closed comedones, these are small, whitish or flesh-colored bumps and spots. Typically, closed comedones have a white, circular center surrounded by a reddish halo. Whiteheads usually don't cause scarring.Blackheads:Blackheads are also referred to as open comedones. These are small, black or dark-colored spots that typically appear as slightly raised bumps. The center of the blackhead is darker than the surrounding area.Blackheads sometimes have the appearance of exposed dirt, but in reality, these are open whiteheads. When the interior of these open comedones is exposed to the air, they darken or turn black.Inflammatory acneInflammatory acne blemishes include:Pustules:These are large and have a well-defined center. This center is filled with white or yellow pus from an overabundance of bacteria or bacterial infection.Papules:Smaller than pustules, these have no discernable center and appear as solid bumps under the skin's surface. They are tender to the touch and usually appear with the surrounding skin swollen and red.Nodules:Look Like larger papules, they are inflamed deep under the skin and painful to the touch. Nodules are a signal that the deeper layers of skin are clogged. These are known to cause a darkening of the skin or scarring.Cysts:Like nodules, cysts exist deep within the skin layers; they grow very large and are soft and painful to the touch. Cysts require treatment with antibiotics.Inflammatory acne is a more severe form of acne, likely to cause complications, such as scarring or pitting.Frequently Asked QuestionsHow Does Your Acne Treatment Work?Dr. Moazemi will start with local treatment using medical grade Salicylic acid, Benzoyl peroxide, then local antibiotics and local retinoids. From there, he may perform procedures to define pores and improve blood perfusion to the area. The cycle usually ends with a systemic treatment of oral antibiotics and isotretinoin if the desired response is not obtained.If scarring has occurred and your skin has cleared from active acne there is no better treatment than microneedling with PRP, in fact, we recommend a round of treatments to even out your skin and begin to grow a healthy, new structure beneath.It is crucial to your skin's health that your resistant acne is treated with only the highest-quality skincare products. Any over the counter products must be discontinued as these often contain ingredients that actually aggravate your acne.How Long Will it Take to See Results?It depends on the severity, type of acne, adherence to instructions and presence of other factors including but not limited to other associated medical conditions. If this is your first time getting treated for acne and your acne is not severe, typically you will see a response within weeks of starting treatment.Occasionally several different factors are involved in acne and will need to be addressed one at a time. In such cases, although you would see a response in a month or so, you would probably need further follow up to make sure all aspects of what is making your acne worse are evaluated and treated.Treating acne is a process rather than a one time remedy. The intensity of treatment for acne does not need to stay the same and frequently needs to be increased or decreased depending on the circumstances. Most of the time a maintenance treatment regimen can be instituted that will maintain your skin's health for the long term. Unfortunately, due to the nature of acne, breakouts can happen, but with appropriate and timely action that is nothing to be concerned about.How Long Will My Acne Treatment Last?You will likely experience significant improvement within 1 to 3 months of starting treatment with appropriate follow up and change in the intensity of treatment. At this point, one would be on a maintenance protocol. Depending on the type of acne your condition may resolve within a couple of years spontaneously at which time you will gradually come off of treatment. Under other circumstances, one would need to stay on long term maintenance treatment to prevent breakouts. Such circumstances are rare and usually associated with other types of medical illness.

How Does Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy Work?As we age, we begin to feel an overall decline in our bodies' ability to perform. Much of this is due to the decreased production of hormones. We often feel tired, irritable, and generally more depressed. Our sex drives decrease, and our general lust for life fades. Rather than dismissing these symptoms as simply "old age" BIHT-trained physicians understand that through proper testing many clients can find relief by adding one or more of these non-synthetic, natural hormone replacements to their health regimen.Is Your Doctor's View on Aging Outdated?Many of today's respected physicians are still painfully unaware of BIHT breakthroughs. It actually differs from what was taught in the fourth year of medical school for thousands of otherwise qualified doctors. It's crucial that you take the time to learn about BIHT even if you have barely begun to feel the effects of aging. It's one of Dr. Moazemi's philosophies that everyone has the right to know what their options are when it comes to the normal decrease in hormonal production and their consequences.Is BIHT Safe?Under a qualified practitioner's care, BIHT is very safe.What Can I Expect During My Appointment?During your first visit, Dr. Moazemi will listen to your concerns and explain the various hormonal changes and functions that may be contributing to your symptoms. The two of you will speak candidly about the specific lifestyle changes that you feel are beginning to hold you back from living a full and happy life. If it is determined that you are a candidate for BIHT, he will order a hormonal panel incorporating a few tests to help determine the most probable cause for your concerns.Why Should I Try BIHT?Over the years, life changes and genetics leave us with deficiencies. By age 55, we're producing just 16% of the growth hormones that we had in our teen years. Traditional medicine will typically attempt to mask the symptoms with prescription medications like antidepressants.Unfortunately, if you're coping with hormonal changes, your physical symptoms are written off as normal aging with no consideration of the newest and best solutions to your complaints. This habit of expecting a lower quality of life is rampant in the medical community and getting all the facts about what hormone replacements actually work is a legitimate challenge.At Beau Visage Aesthetics, we urge you to take back some control when it comes to how you react to biology. BIHT offers real relief to people every day, and that relief can be life-changing. Whether or not you ultimately choose treatment, you deserve to get all of the facts about the latest in anti-aging science and make your own informed decisions about how to proceed. We work hard to prepare our clients for these lifestyle choices.

How Does Microneedling Work?The structure of your skin is built with a matrix of collagen, elastin, and growth factors. As the years progress, our skin gradually tapers off the production of these elements causing visible signs of aging. This is often referred to as volume loss. Through strategic placement of deep-piercing micro-wounds, the skin is triggered to reset this production, flooding the area with new blood vessels and a harvest of growth factors including collagen. Since these micro wounds trigger regrowth, cell turnover is enhanced at a deeper level; therefore this process has also lead to a remarkable reduction in the appearance of scarring for many patients.Do I Need to Prepare for Microneedling?Yes, the following are necessary:Discontinue the use of Accutane for at least six months before treatment.Don't use hydroquinone, and benzoyl peroxide acne products 5-7 days before treatmentDiscontinue use of any anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen or Motrin for three days before treatment.It's relatively common to see bruising in the area after treatment, to reduce this risk discontinue any blood-thinning agents like aspirin or fish oil seven days prior.Do not use skincare that may increase sensitivity: retinoids, exfoliants or acids (such as alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) or beta hydroxy acids (BHA)No unprotected sun exposure for at least two weeks prior to your appointmentDon't shave the area on the day of your treatment; this can cause additional skin irritationIf you are prone to cold sores, ask Dr. Maozemi about an antiviral agent for two days prior to and on the day of treatmentWhat can I Expect During My Microneedling Appointment?Dr. Maozemi will clean your skin and apply a numbing agent 30 minutes before treatment. Next, he will use an MDPen which is a professional Electric microneedling device with 16500 RPM to treat the desired area. The overall session lasts from 20-30 minutes.Will Microneedling Hurt?Though the area is thoroughly numbed, you may experience slight discomfort during the session. You can take over the counter pain medication post-treatment.How Long Will it Take My Skin to Heal?It's completely normal for skin to turn red after a micro-needling session; most people compare it to the look of a mild sunburn. The skin should begin to return to normal after 24-48 hours depending on how aggressive the treatment is. You may also see some small marks from the micro-injuries for the first few days.When Will I See Results?By four weeks you will see some improvement in the overall health and look of your skin. We recommend at least three treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for best results. This process is most effective if repeated annually. For skin with scarring or deeper lines, you may need to book extra sessions.

General Information About Platelet Rich PlasmaThe serum itself is created by separating a patient's Platelets from other blood components within a centrifuge machine. The blood is separated into three layers, a very small white blood cell band (also known as a buffy coat) in the middle, a red blood cell portion on the bottom, and the PRP serum on top. PRP contains a significantly higher concentration of platelets, at times up to 10 times more concentrated than the blood itself, depending on the type of centrifuge that is used for separation. It is highly recommended not to use regular laboratory centrifuge as they not only produce a significantly lower platelet concentration but also they lead to activation of platelets due to their high RPM (Rotation per minute) which results in an exponential decrease in the components that are used for regeneration of skin elements most importantly the growth factors that stimulate growth.With PRP's ability to stimulate the regeneration of tissue it has even been shown to help in avoiding major surgeries, particularly of the joints and ligaments. When it comes to aesthetic medicine, PRP is combined with microneedling to:Reduce scarring, especially from acneSmooth the appearance of celluliteRejuvenate skin on the face and bodyReduce the intensity of wrinkles and sun damageEnhance the overall texture and tone of a patient's skinEliminate the signs of aging in handsFrequently Asked QuestionsCan PRP help with Hair Regrowth?Yes!
