🤩 SO excited to introduce the Cartessa Helix Fusion Laser to our practice — the next generation in laser technology designed to deliver powerful, customized results for every patient!🤩

💡 Why it’s different:
This laser combines ablative and non-ablative technology in one device:
• 🔥 Ablative treatments create tiny channels in the skin to precisely resurface, improving texture, fine lines, wrinkles, and scars for dramatic results.
• 💧 Non-ablative treatments gently stimulate collagen beneath the surface by delivering heat, with less downtime, perfect for patients who want subtle rejuvenation and glowing skin.

🌟 The best part?! With this new laser, we can use each technology on its own or harness the power of the two together, depending on the patient’s skin and skincare goals. 🌟
From smoothing fine lines to fading acne scars, tightening skin, and restoring youthful radiance, the Cartessa Helix Fusion can be tailored to your skin’s needs — whether you’re ready for a transformative treatment or just a refresh.

🌿 Poison Ivy: What You Need to Know 🌿

Poison ivy is the most common cause of contact dermatitis in the US. The plant exists in every state, except Alaska and Hawaii. It’s actually the oil the plant produces that irritates our skin and causes the rash. Wearing long sleeves, and keeping an eye out for the plant while on hikes is always recommended, but sometimes it can be impossible to avoid.
We see and treat many patients with poison ivy this time of year and have found there can be many misconceptions.
Here are some common myths!

❌ Myths about Poison Ivy
1. “You can catch it from someone else’s rash.”
➡️ False! The rash itself isn’t contagious. It’s the plant’s oil (urushiol) that triggers the reaction.
2. “If I don’t see a rash right away, I’m safe.”
➡️ Not true. The reaction can take hours to days to appear.
3. “Burning poison ivy plants is a good way to get rid of them.”
➡️ Dangerous! Inhaling the smoke can cause serious lung irritation.
4. “Once I’ve had poison ivy, I won’t get it again.”
➡️ Unfortunately, repeat exposure often makes reactions worse, not better.
✅ Dermatologist Tip:
If you’ve been exposed, wash the area (and clothing!) with soap and water as soon as possible. If the rash is widespread, blistering, or near your eyes/face, seek medical care.

✨ Botox for Better Skin? Yes, Really. ✨⁣

Most people know botulinum toxin as the go-to for softening expression lines—but did you know it also offers skin-boosting benefits beyond relaxing muscles? 💉🌟

Here’s how Botox can help improve your skin quality:⁣

🔹 Minimizes pore size – By reducing oil gland activity, Botox can help visibly shrink enlarged pores, leaving your skin smoother and more refined.⁣

🔹 Reduces oil production – Especially in the T-zone, small doses of Botox can help control excess shine and even reduce breakouts in acne-prone skin.⁣

🔹 Improves skin elasticity – Studies show Botox may enhance skin texture by improving dermal remodeling.

🔹 Gives a subtle glow – Smoother skin reflects light more evenly, giving you that fresh, dewy look—like a real-life filter.⁣

Our patients are happy 💗 to have softer expression lines and improved skin texture! Looking for a summer refresh? We have openings in both our Shadyside and Cranberry office this month.
