Lauren Trussel, Licensed Aesthetician

Diamond Tome Skin Resurfacing
The Diamond Tome is one of the newest innovations in skin rejuvination. It is an excellent alternative to the older crystal microdermabrasion. Exfoliation occurs when the precise diamond chip wand is drawn across the skin with gentle vacuum settings to stimulate blood flow. Patients can achieve skin rejuvination without the loose particles, burning, skin irritation and reactions. The skin will feel softer, smoother and cleaner. This treatment is noninvasive, painless, and requires no downtime.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels utilize pharmaceutical grade acid solutions to improve the superficial appearance of the skin. Chemical peels are classified according to superficial, medium, or deep peels. Medium and deep peels are performed by our physician. Superficial peels (glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, mandelic acid, or resorcinol) can be performed by our trained aesthetician and staff.
These superficial peels are generally utilized for:
- Acne
- Dull, tired skin
- Blocked pores
- Melasma
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
- Sun damaged skin with age spots and roughness
Superficial peels are safe with minimal downtime. You may experience redness that lasts for minutes to a few hours. There may be temporary flaking and dryness for a few days. Depending on the condition that you are treating, several treatments may be recommended. Chemical peels can be combined with a light microdermabrasion.
Optimal clinical results can be achieved with a good skin care regimen.
Facial Treatments
Facials are a great way to relax, be pampered and maintain healthy skin. They freshen up your skin and increase circulation to help your skin with a more healthy glow. Treatments are individualize based upon your needs and skin types.
Types of facials include:
- Exfoliating facial (removes dry, dead layers of skin)
- Hydrating facial ( improves dehydrated and irritated skin)
- Deep Pore Cleansing facial (cleans clogged pores)
Professional Skin Care Products
There are many cosmaceutical products to choose from and it can get confusing. Cosmaceutical products are not regulated by the FDA and can make any claim of effectiveness. At Southside Dermatology, we try to offer you quality products and companies that have attempted to perform research on their products. We may not carry all products from one line because we try to pick what we feel are the best products from each line. We also value the feedback we get from our patients. We continue to replace products if there is a more beneficial substitute.
Our skin care regimens are individualized because we can combine prescription products with cosmeceuticals. Regimens are determined on your skin care conditions, skin types and sensitivities. Our aesthetician work with our physician and physician assistants to analyze your skin, address your concerns and determine the best treatment for you.
