Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Helen Kaporis

Sourced directly from Dr. Helen Kaporis's social posts and replies.

How does the Picosure laser work?
The Picosure laser delivers energy so quickly that it converts into pressure rather than heat, penetrating pigment and blasting it away.

What are the benefits and expected downtime of CO2 laser resurfacing?
CO2 laser resurfacing is used to build collagen, combat fine lines and crepeiness, remove superficial hyperpigmentation, improve periocular skin, and enhance skin brightness. Skin resurfacing can be achieved after one session. The approximate downtime for this procedure is 1 week.
Source →
What are the expected outcomes and timeline for combination anti-aging treatments?
Significant results, aiming for a youthful appearance, are typically expected in three months from combination anti-aging treatments like Sculptra, Skinvive, and CO2 laser.
Source →
What range of results can be achieved with HA filler for lip enhancement?
Lip enhancement with HA filler can achieve a range of results, from subtle to stunning, with the aim of a fuller, yet natural look.

What is Dr. Kaporis's approach to treating Melasma and sun protection, including topical and oral regimens?
Melasma is a delicate condition often requiring a combination of multiple modalities. Risk factors include sunlight, heat, hormones, and genetics. Essential management includes reapplying sunblock, seeking shade, and wearing wide-brim hats. Dr. Kaporis mostly recommends tinted physical sunblocks, which contain iron oxide, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide, as iron oxide provides additional UV protection. A good topical regimen such as hydroquinone and retinoids is an excellent starting point. It's important to note that skin needs breaks from hydroquinone, and this should always be managed by your dermatologist. In some circumstances, oral tranexamic acid is also used to clear melasma.

What are Coolpeel and 1570 laser, and what are their benefits?
Coolpeel is a fractionated CO2 ablative laser, while 1570 is a fractionated nonablative laser. Ablative lasers work by heating water molecules to vaporize skin cells, disrupting the superficial layer to prompt collagen building and repair. The 1570 nm non-ablative laser penetrates deep to heat lower skin layers without disrupting the superficial skin. The combination of Coolpeel and 1570 laser allows for multilevel collagen formation, skin glow, and improved wrinkles.

What is Restylane EYELIGHT and how is it used for eye rejuvenation, potentially with Restylane Lyft?
Restylane EYELIGHT is a dermal filler indicated for improving infraorbital hollowing (under eye volume depletion). A small amount can change how light reflects from the tear trough area, restoring volume, decreasing dark circles, and providing a natural refreshed appearance. Not everyone is a candidate for tear trough filler. For optimal results, Restylane Lyft may be added to support the skin overlaying the cheekbones.

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)

$16,642

Payments

44

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. Helen Kaporis received $16,642 across 44 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 89% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was Galderma Laboratories, L.P..

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?”
