In Dr. Konika Patel Schallen's own words

How Dr. Konika Patel Schallen describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.

Approach

  • The study's findings are changing the way the practice thinks about laser treatments.
  • CMA Medicine is committed to helping patients look, feel, and live their best.

Specialization

  • Dr. Konika Patel Schallen's practice is really excited to be able to bring Hormone Replacement Therapy to their patients.
  • A lot of our patients, too, are fit, they're exercising, and yet, they're building up that extra stubborn weight
  • Specializes in Laser Technology & Aesthetics

Technique

  • We chose patients and we did split face treatments so that we could take their own untreated side and compare it to the side that we treated
  • Dr. Konika Patel Schallen's practice uses a series of three treatments of the 1940 non-ablative fractional laser, chosen for its highest depth of penetration in water among non-ablative fractional lasers, to impact the epidermis and superficial dermis.

Technology

  • We took a look at the 1940 non-ablative fractional laser and its epigenetic impact on the skin

Results

  • And in this study, we found that treatment with the 1940 non-ablative fractional laser impacted our gene in a positive way in three major categories
  • The second category is the skin aging category. And when we looked at all those sites on the genes, we saw that of those sites that regulate aging, 84% of those sites were actually positively impacted. Those sites reversed aging

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Konika Patel Schallen

Sourced directly from Dr. Konika Patel Schallen's social posts and replies.

What research has Dr. Schallen conducted on laser treatments, and what were the findings?
Dr. Schallen's latest research, published in Scientific Reports, investigated the epigenetic impact of the 1940-nm non-ablative fractional laser. In a split-face clinical study, her team found that this laser influences gene regulation, leading to enhanced collagen remodeling, improved skin barrier function, and extracellular matrix support. It creates a more youthful epigenetic profile, with over 83% of age-related markers shifting favorably, and improves pathways for healthy epidermal function and keratinocyte differentiation. The research suggests this laser not only improves skin appearance but also influences biological pathways for healthier, more resilient skin, and may even explain fewer keratinocyte cancers in treated patients. The study utilized a randomized split-face design to understand how laser energy influences the biology of aging and skin health at a cellular level.

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)

$442

Payments

16

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Konika Patel Schallen received $442 across 16 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, 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?”
