Often working in concert with one another, the following treatments can maintain youthful complexion longer, and help you minimize visible signs of aging.

Skin Care Products

The latest skin care technology will promote natural turn over of new skin cells. It's an investment that truly pays off for young people wanting to preserve their youthful complexions. And for those in their 30's and 40's it can help undo past damage without invasive techniques.

At Hess Plastic Surgery we are experienced with and have seen outstanding results from the Obagi and Nia 24™ skin care systems with and without the addition of Retin A.™ After patients see the results, they notice that:

  • Wrinkles and fine lines are visibly reduced
  • Skin is brighter and smoother
  • Less make-up is needed
  • Skin becomes naturally more beautiful

These are powerful skin care products you can only acquire from a skin care professional. When applied with our guidance the, results are extremely satisfying to our patients.

Latisse

Latisse is applied to the base of the lashes on the upper eyelid. By keeping hairs in their growth phase, Latisse produces darker, thicker and longer eyelashes. The effects of Latisse appear after a few weeks but they are not permanent. Patients must continue using it or the eyelashes gradually return to their original state.

Botox

Botox can treat or prevent the formation or progression of both dynamic and static wrinkles. By temporarily inactivating the muscles that cause wrinkles, the lines disappear or diminish dramatically. Botox treatment is quick, typically requiring just 10 - 15 minutes in our Fairfax plastic surgery office.

Vi Peel

The Vi Peel® is a chemical peel that is effective for treatment of unwanted pigment changes caused by acne scarring and photodamage. We often recommend this peel for patients with age spots, freckles, melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It can tighten your pores, improve skin texture, and smooth out uneven complexions.
