Plastic Surgery Burbank - Dr. Orloff

Will the Right Laser Step Forward!

While lasers have been around in the medical profession for some time, it is only recently that they have hit their stride in the cosmetic arena. This recent surge in development to some degree has been in response to the segment known as “Baby Boomers,” and their attention on maintaining an attractive, youthful appearance. A group like this who is motivated to look their best is quite aware that their skin is key to looking youthful and healthy without unwanted blemishes or conditions.

Treatment of a variety of problems on, in or near the skin is where lasers have really made huge strides. Early systems, many of which are still in use, were quite limited in application though the promise of their potential was evident. Recent years of intensive research and development uncovered numerous variations in medical applications and the many different forms these tools needed to take for optimum results. While the earlier somewhat crude systems could make some progress in many differing situations, none could have been considered ideal for any given procedure.

Now, laser devices are very condition or procedure specific. The best laser available to remove fine wrinkles is different than that for hair removal, or age spots, or to minimize facial blood vessels, or remove tattoos, etc.

At our office we insist that two important criteria are met concerning the use of lasers for the benefit of our patients. First, we will only have in our office those lasers which are considered state-of-the-art. Second, since the results from lasers are as much a function of operator competence, we intend to always be as skilled as is possible in the use and application of these devices. The best equipment with the best possible operators is the only service we intend to provide.

Along with the best possible results, our commitment will also result in the least possible discomfort, little if any downtime after a procedure and your confidence it was done right.

The most common procedures we feel lasers can contribute to address the following conditions: unwanted facial or body hair, facial wrinkles, facial blood vessels, unwanted tattoos, age spots and other pigmentation abnormalities, leg veins, birthmarks, a variety or scars including acne and many other less common skin conditions.

With age comes the unfortunate physical appearance of lines and wrinkles. With time, smile lines don’t go away even though we’ve stopped smiling. Collagen is the reason why. Collagen is a protein naturally found in the second layer of the skin known as the “dermis”. As we age, the collagen framework under the skin weakens and the skin loses elasticity; thus lines and wrinkles.

Dr. Orloff is frequently asked by his patients to perform collagen replacement therapy to replenish the skin’s natural collagen support layer, thereby smoothing facial lines and even some types of scars. Another common use of collagen therapy is to enhance the size and shape of one’s lips. Different types of collagen injectors are used in Dr. Orloff’s office, including Zyderm®, Zyplast®, Cosmoplast™ and Cosmoderm™.

At your initial consultation, Dr. Orloff will discuss with you the treatment options available, and depending on your goals and desired outcome, will recommend a personalized program utilizing the latest advancements in collagen therapy.

Most people, knowingly or unknowingly, communicate somewhat through their facial expressions — a smile, frown or a laugh. While a smile is a universal sign that one is pleased or happy, an unwanted side effect is the formation of wrinkles, or “smile lines”. Lines or wrinkles can give one the appearance of being angry, tired or sad, even though they may not be experiencing that emotion. Dr. Orloff now offers a solution to prevent the formation of lines and wrinkles with the latest advancement in botulinum toxin therapy, called BOTOX® Cosmetic. This treatment safely and effectively improves the appearance of frown or smile lines, forehead creases and “crow’s feet” caused by repeated use of facial muscles by relaxing the underlying facial muscles. The treatment of wrinkles with BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple and safe procedure.

At your initial consultation, Dr. Orloff will discuss the various procedures available to minimize the formation of lines and wrinkles. He will fully explain the BOTOX® Cosmetic injection procedure and make a recommendation for a treatment plan that best suits your desired goals. Together you and Dr. Orloff can make a plan to create a smoother and more youthful facial appearance.
