Improve Aging Skin & Fine Lineswith Microneedling

Automated micro-needling is a new innovation in aesthetic medicine that can help treat the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and the skin’s overall appearance. Benefits include a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. Microneedling can also have a positive effect on the appearance of hyper-pigmentation, dark spots, acne scars and stretch marks and create a fresher appearance or glow to the skin.

Deeply Exfoliate your Skinwith Chemical Peels

Ranging from mild to intense, chemical peels employ powerful exfoliation agents such as alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and phenol to strip the skin of cellular debris. The result is a smoother, more even complexion, free from distracting blemishes and scars. Chemical peels are formulated according to the patient’s needs, and are often performed in conjunction with age-reversing surgical procedures such as facelifts or blepharoplasty.

Piedmont Plastic Surgery & DermatologyWhere beauty and skin health begin

Classic Facials

Unlike the cleansing most us attempt at home, a professional facial can dramatically target and reduce a host of chronic skin flaws, deeply exfoliating and invigorating the complexion for remarkable results.

Facials can be customized to a variety of problems, including sun damage, acne, oily skin, dry skin, and aging.

Deep Pore Cleaning/Extractions

Although it may be hard to see in the mirror, the pores accumulate debris, oils, germs and microorganisms, all of which contribute to a marred, lackluster complexion. Deep pore cleaning can rejuvenate and irrigate even the most compromised layers of skin, leaving your face exquisitely refreshed and revived.

Microdermabrasion

During microdermabrasion, a wire brush or diamond-tipped buffer is used to scrub dead cells and imperfections from the skin’s surface, revealing a new radiant and blemish-free layer below. This is a fantastic treatment for those suffering from sun damage, acne scars and pigment irregularities, as well as stubborn wrinkles and fine lines.

Dermaplaning

When you’re ready to treat your skin to a profound, age-defying transformation, you may find that dermaplaning is the exceptional solution you’ve been craving. During the process, a precise surgical instrument known as a ‘dermatome’ is used to exfoliate the skin’s vellus hairs, dead cells and impurities, leaving behind a complexion that is simply luminous.

One of our most popular patient services! Make mascara a thing of the past and wake up with brilliant, camera-ready eyes, ready to greet the world with a smile. Our unique line of all-natural tinting products colorfully enhances lashes and brows in shades customized to your skin tone. Learn more

Skin Analysis

As the largest organ in our bodies and our first line of defense against the environment, the skin constantly communicates with us, informing us of everything from the state of our emotions to deeper health issues that may be lurking beneath the surface. Skin analysis is a diagnostic tool, like an x-ray, that allows dermatologists and doctors to customize their treatment plans to your needs. During skin analysis, your aesthetician will assess your skin type, tone, texture, pH balance and degree of sun damage. Learn more

I called Dr. Nicole Seminara's office at Piedmont Plastic Surgery and Dermatology in Huntersville,...
