eMatrix Sublative Skin Rejuvenation | Laser Skin Resurfacing

Skin Rejuvenation

Sublative Rejuvenation with eMatrix is a unique procedure making use of radiofrequency waves for delivering a controlled yet effective ablative and nonablative fractional treatment for scars, wrinkles, large pores, and better skin texture. The treatment makes use of radiofrequency (electrical) energy instead of laser.

Radiofrequency energy is delivered in each pulse through a grid of matrix spots that induces skin injury and maximizes the tiny targeted areas. The ‘zones’ have activated fibroblasts, which will promote collagen regeneration and tissue remodeling. This action yields improved skin texture and tone. Meanwhile, untreated surrounding tissue supports and accelerates the skin’s natural healing process.

Generally, a series of 3 – 5 treatment sessions are required for optimal results. Elastin and collagen production is stimulated by eMatrix in the deep layers of the skin. This results in smoother, tighter, brighter, and more refined appearance of the treated areas. Results continue to improve over a period of 3 – 5 months after the final session.

How does Sublative Rejuvenation Work?

Laser or light energy needs to be delivered below the skin to achieve best possible results. Most aggressive treatments face this challenge since they overheat the topmost skin layer resulting in ablation. Sublative Rejuvenation makes use of fractionated bi-polar radio frequency for penetrating through the skin. It sends more energy beneath the surface of the skin for maximizing collagen production while keeping the topmost layer of the skin intact.

Sublative Rejuvenation for Improving Acne Scarring

Sublative Rejuvenation offers an alternative to laser treatments for reducing the appearance of acne scarring. Typically, 48 hours of mild downtime is needed after eMatrix. There is fewer chance of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation since the procedure uses radiofrequency instead of light. eMatrix sublative rejuvenation is a successful alternative to laser treatments for acne scarring and skin rejuvenation. Patients of all skin types can use this treatment option.

Downtime in eMatrix

Downtime in eMatrix is variable. Mild treatment may include a few days’ social downtime. This is when your skin may be red with possible swelling. Aggressive treatments generally mean more downtime. You will not be restricted from activity, but you may experience redness and mild crusting that will keep you from the social activities that you enjoy.

It’s vital to understand that where eMatrix sublative skin rejuvenation is concerned, everyone heals in a different way. The level of treatment performed will determine the expected downtime.

Reduce Your Double Chin With The CoolMini™ by Coolsculpting

Reduce Your Double Chin

Double chin can make people appear older than their real age. CoolMini is a simple fat freezing technique, like CoolSculpting. However, the handpiece has a small area and can perfectly tuck beneath the chin. CoolMini is excellent for the chin, as well as, the left and right side of the neck below the jawline.

Dr. Q Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Suzanne Quardt (Dr. Q) provides CoolMini by CoolSculpting double chin reduction treatment to patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, Beverly Hills, CA, and surrounding locations.

Eliminate Double Chin with CoolMini

Neck lift plastic surgery and neck liposuction were the only two ways of removing submental fat until a decade ago. The submental fat is responsible for neck wattles, jowls, and chin. However, fat can now be dissolved under the chin and in the neck with the FDA cleared noninvasive CoolMini procedure. This can be done conveniently and rapidly without surgery.

The FDA cleared CoolMini med spa device comes with a new expanded function, allowing cosmetic professionals to remove tiny and stubborn fat pockets from under the chin with the help of a special applicator.

The applicator has been used for treating double chins in over 2 million treatments with high satisfactory rates. In fact, the outcome is comparable to surgical liposuction procedure. CoolMini can provide a 20% reduction in chin fat in a 45-minute session.

The CoolMini Procedure

Your plastic surgeon or a trained CoolSculpting aesthetician will place the CoolMini applicator beneath the chin in this procedure. The submental fat cells will get killed and eliminated through the body’s metabolic process. Controlled cooling is used by a licensed medical aesthetic provider to eliminate stubborn fat from under the chin area.

The procedure only targets fat cells present beneath the skin leaving the surface area of the skin unharmed. The fat cells, once frozen, are naturally removed from the body. There is no downtime involved in the CoolMini fat reduction med spa treatment.

Trusted and Proven Effectiveness

CoolMini applicator got FDA approval on the basis of a study involving 60 participants (both males and females) between the ages of 22 and 65. According to the study, there were no significant adverse effects. Additionally, patients did not experience any downtime or substantial discomfort.

Zeltiq, the CoolSculpting manufacturer, also states that the study participants reported visible improvements in just 3 weeks with maximum improvements after 3 months. CoolSculpting of the chin and neck using a CoolMini applicator offers real results. Users state the procedure is highly effective on both substantial and small fatty deposits on the neck and chin. Patients are satisfied with the outcome and the procedure is safe.

Treatment Process

You may need 1 – 2 treatment sessions of one hour each for reducing 20% fat under the chin area. The treatment provider will use the curved jaws of the device to clamp neck fat. This will then be exposed to cold temperature that will numb the region. You will not feel any major discomfort during the procedure.

Jeuveau Decreases The Lines Between Your Brows (The 11)

Jeuveau 

Have you noticed that your frown lines are more pronounced recently? Are there lines around the eyes and between your eyebrows? You don’t have to live with frown lines even though they are a normal part of aging. Lines and wrinkles can quickly and effectively be treated with Jeuveau, a safe and effective new injectable.

Dr. Q Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Suzanne Quardt (Dr. Q) provides Jeuveau neuromodulator injections to reduce the frown lines between the brows (called the “11” lines) to patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, Beverly Hills, CA, and surrounding communities.

No More Eleven’s

The glabellar lines are often called the ‘Elevens’ because they are vertical in appearance. These lines generally develop when you are scowling, frowning, or focusing on something. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in February 2019, approved Jeuveau for temporarily reducing the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar line.

Jeuveau contains botulinum toxin type A. Wrinkles are caused by muscle contractions and Jeuveau weakens the targeted muscles. Eventually, this helps in smoothing out the frown lines on your forehead. You can expect Jeuveau results to last 3 – 4 months. This is a maintenance solution and not a permanent one for treating frown lines and nonsurgical wrinkles.

Proven Treatment Efficacy

Jeuveau is best known for treating glabellar lines. The compound showed excellent results in two separate trials. The FDA reported trials found that 71% and 67% people saw significant improvement in their frown lines after the med spa injectable treatment. This is in comparison to a 1% improvement in the placebo control group.

Nonsurgical Eye and Brow Lift

There is no reason to have your brow, forehead and upper eyelids add years to your facial appearance. First signs of facial aging are usually seen by people in their mid-20s. Repeated movement of facial muscles can create wrinkles. Jeuveau is safe to use on younger as well as older people as a preventative treatment measure. It can reverse creases, wrinkles, and frown lines.

Jeuveau is Different

After Botox, Jeuveau is the first 900 kDa molecule neurotoxin to be introduced in cosmetic med spa world. The 900 kDa molecule neurotoxin is gold standard for the treatment of wrinkles. The compound is manufactured using a proprietary Hi-Pure technology making it more potent and effective.

How Does Jeuveau Work?

Jeuveau helps in temporarily relaxing muscles, which reduces facial wrinkles. This includes frown lines and glabellar lines that are created between the eyebrows. Jeuveau is a neurotoxin which temporarily relaxes the muscles and allows for a smooth and rejuvenated facial appearance.

Jeuveau can be substituted for Botox without any issue. The two are essentially the same, with Jeuveau being less expensive as compared to Botox.

Recovery and Results

There is no downtime involved in Jeuveau wrinkle reducing injections unlike cosmetic surgery. You can get back to work and resume other activities. However, you should not rub the site of the injection. This may cause the ingredient to spread and cause side effects. The effects of this injection will naturally wear off after a few months.
