Aesthetic Services Q & A
What are aesthetic treatments?
Aesthetics is a field of medicine that focuses on helping men and women improve their overall appearance. There are both surgical and nonsurgical aesthetic options, which include facials, specialized skincare, facelifts, breast augmentation, and liposuction.
Aesthetic treatments help improve your appearance by:
- Improving fine lines and wrinkles
- Tightening and firming skin
- Eliminating unwanted hair
- Reducing stretch marks and scars
- Improving skin discoloration
- Reducing fat and excess skin
Aesthetic treatments aren’t medically necessary but improve your sense of well-being by helping you look and feel younger and more vibrant.
Dr. Jeereddy proudly offers a range of noninvasive aesthetic treatments, including Icon® laser treatments, chemical peels, and Botox injectables.
What are Icon laser treatments?
Icon laser treatments utilize focused light energy to improve the quality and tone of your skin. Laser treatments penetrate deep into the layers of your skin, stimulating new collagen production and reversing sun damage and other signs of aging.
Laser treatments may improve:
- Age spots
- Uneven skin tone
- Discoloration
- Sagging skin
- Spider veins
- Scars or stretch marks
Laser treatments may also help remove unwanted hair from the arms, legs, face, chin, bikini line, and more.
What is a Botox injection?
A Botox injection is an FDA-approved treatment for improving crow’s feet and other wrinkles. Botox injections use a naturally derived toxin that temporarily freezes muscle tissue. When Dr. Jeereddy injects Botox below your deep lines and creases, the muscle stops contracting, and the skin overlaying it relaxes and softens.
Botox is a temporary aesthetic treatment that may last up to four months. Sessions usually last 10-15 minutes, and most see a marked improvement in their lines and wrinkles within 24-48 hours.
What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is an aesthetic treatment that helps improve the texture and appearance of your skin, by chemically exfoliating away its rough, dull surface layer. Chemical peels range from mild to deep exfoliation, depending on your aesthetic goals.
When using specialized formulations, treatments may help improve your:
- Dry skin
- Age spots
- Clogged pores
- Acne scars
- Sun damage
- Fine lines
A chemical peel removes dead and damaged skin and reveals fresh, vibrant skin that better absorbs oxygen, nutrients, and moisture. A chemical peel may boost your skincare routine and make it more effective at keeping your face looking healthy and young.
