Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Derek H. Jones

Sourced directly from Dr. Derek H. Jones's social posts and replies.

What is Dr. Jones' approach to personalized patient care and treatment customization?
Dr. Jones and his team emphasize a highly individualized approach to patient care. Every step, from consultation to treatment, is rooted in individualized assessment, ensuring expert guidance and tailored solutions for each patient's unique skin and goals. This applies to skincare regimens, laser treatments, CoolSculpting, neurotoxin selection (BOTOX®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®, Daxxify™, Dysport®), and filler treatments (Juvéderm, Restylane, Belotero, RHA, Radiesse, Sculptra), where subtle differences and nuances are considered for optimal results.
Does the practice offer skincare products?
Yes, the practice provides physician-dispensed, scientifically proven skincare products that are not available in stores.
What can I expect from a facial with Lola, the aesthetician?
Lola, the practice's aesthetician, approaches every facial with individualized assessment, not assumptions. Each facial is customized using medical-grade techniques, advanced exfoliation, and precise skin correction, including deep cleansing and rejuvenating masks. Her work is deliberate and results-driven, focusing on long-term skin maintenance, acne management, pigment control, and pre- and post-procedure care, delivering visible and palpable results.
What is the UltraPulse™ Fractional CO₂ Laser used for and what are its benefits?
The UltraPulse™ Fractional CO₂ Laser is a physician-led treatment used to address deeper wrinkles, pigmentation irregularities, and scarring with precision. This advanced technology stimulates collagen remodeling, improving overall skin texture and tone. The results are corrective, focusing on genuine skin improvement rather than fleeting cosmetic trends.
What is Dr. Jones' approach to neurotoxin treatments (Botox, Jeuveau, Xeomin, Daxxify, Dysport)?
Dr. Jones and his board-certified, cosmetic fellowship-trained dermatologists have decades of experience with a range of neurotoxins, including BOTOX®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®, Daxxify™, and Dysport®. They understand the subtle differences that make each toxin work best for unique facial structures and goals. The practice uses these treatments to smooth existing expression lines like frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet, and to prevent deeper wrinkles, all while prioritizing natural results that maintain expression. Patients are guided in selecting the appropriate neurotoxin based on desired outcomes, such as quick results, longer-lasting effects, or the 'naked' precision of Xeomin®.
What is CoolSculpting and what can I expect?
CoolSculpting® is a non-surgical method for reducing stubborn fat that requires no downtime. It utilizes controlled cooling technology to eliminate targeted fat cells while leaving surrounding tissue unaffected. Treatments are physician-led and customized following a personalized consultation. Results develop gradually, revealing a more refined contour over time.
What is Dr. Jones' philosophy and approach to dermal fillers?
Dr. Jones and his team specialize in achieving subtle, natural-looking filler results that refresh and rejuvenate without masking features. They understand that lines, folds, and lost volume don't have to define one's reflection. With decades of experience as Principal Investigators in FDA clinical trials for almost every major filler, they offer a range including Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Belotero®, RHA®, Radiesse®, and Sculptra®. The practice assists patients in selecting the appropriate filler based on their unique facial structure and goals, aiming for results where others notice a positive difference without realizing cosmetic work has been performed.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$15,229

Payments

24

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. Derek H. Jones received $15,229 across 24 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 89% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as consulting fee, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
