Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Paul L. Hester
Sourced directly from Dr. Paul L. Hester's social posts and replies.
Has Dr. Hester personally experienced any of the treatments?
Yes, Dr. Paul L. Hester was one of the first patients treated with Belotero Volume at the practice.
What can patients expect from their first visit?
Patients can expect to feel a positive difference from their very first visit.
What is the consultation process like?
Patients are encouraged to bring their concerns and goals, and the practice's experts will create a personalized treatment plan. This personalized plan is developed after evaluating the patient's skin, discussing their priorities, and considering their skin type, timeline, budget, and specific goals.
How are optimal aesthetic results achieved?
Optimal aesthetic results can be achieved through a single treatment or a thoughtful combination of treatments over time, tailored to individual needs.
What is the practice's opinion on Belotero Volume?
Belotero Volume is considered the 'next level of filler' by the practice.
When is the ideal time for laser resurfacing treatments?
The practice considers fall and winter as 'laser season' due to reduced sun exposure, making it an ideal time for skin resurfacing treatments like MiXto CO₂ laser resurfacing.
What skin concerns does MiXto CO₂ Resurfacing address, and how does it work?
MiXto CO₂ Resurfacing is indicated for making a significant difference in skin texture, fine lines, pores, and sun damage. It works by resurfacing damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating new collagen beneath the surface, improving overall skin quality. It can lead to noticeable improvements in fine lines, deeper wrinkles, rough/uneven texture, sun damage, discoloration, enlarged pores, crepey skin, and overall skin tone, firmness, and smoothness. This treatment is recommended when skincare alone cannot achieve the desired level of resurfacing. It is considered a more intensive treatment, and results continue to improve as collagen rebuilds.
What is the downtime for MiXto CO₂ Resurfacing?
Patients should plan for approximately 7 to 10 days of social downtime after MiXto CO₂ Resurfacing while the skin heals and renews.
What does the practice recommend for thinning hair?
For patients concerned about thinning hair, the practice recommends learning about REVIAN. REVIAN is an FDA-cleared, drug-free, at-home LED light therapy cap designed to promote hair growth in men and women experiencing hair loss or thinning. It is used for just 10 minutes a day, and its lightweight, wireless design allows for easy integration into daily routines. Studies have shown it can reduce local DHT by 79%. The practice believes REVIAN is supported by real research and it is also backed by a money-back guarantee.
