Dear Patient,

The past year has brought about some exciting changes both personally and professionally. Daniel is 3 years old and enjoying his new role as a big brother to Ella who is now 11 months! Professionally there are some exceptional new procedures, as well as some exciting new applications for many of the existing techniques I perform. I encourage you to visit my updated website, www.GrossmanDermatology.com, to learn more about these advancements and to view some photographs showing the amazing results that can be achieved! Above all, I wish you and your friends and families a happy and healthy year! Karyn

If you missed the Oprah episode in which I discussed this innovative technique for "lifting" the droopy areas of the brow, cheeks, face and neck, you can log on to my website to see some footage! Since the origination of this procedure there have been modifications and improvements in technique that have produced even better results. Dissolvable threads are now available. This is a great advancement as it eliminates many of the potential risks associated with this procedure, including visible threads & thread surfacing. Patients love that there are no scars, minimal downtime and that for most patients there is no anesthesia required.

Eyes by Thermage?

This is the only non-invasive procedure that tightens the skin and decreases wrinkles around the eyes. It significantly lessens "hooding" of the upper eyelids without surgery, injections or downtime. Under-eye "bags" are reduced, taking years off your face.

Our results have been terrific and patients have been thrilled with their improved appearance. Eyes look brighter and more refreshed and that tired look so many patients complain of is no longer a problem. Another benefit is the ease in which eye shadow and liner can now be applied because of the smoother skin!

Body by Thermage?

The face is not the only body part that tends to show ones age! Sun damage, weight gain and loss, pregnancy and aging in general can all take their toll on the body! Luckily, there have been some great technological advancements to help improve the damage. You may be aware of or have tried Thermage™ for smoothing and tightening the skin of the face, but you might not have known that this procedure is also very effective in tightening and contouring abdominal skin, inner thighs and arms. It is possible to improve skin tone and texture, reduce sagging and improve stretch marks with as little as one Thermage™ treatment.

Is there such thing as a "filler lift"? Is it possible to restore volume to an aging, sagging face by injections alone? I believe that with the right filler, or a combination of fillers, to plump, fill and smooth wrinkles, you can achieve a similar result to the more aggressive procedures. Dermal fillers are commonly used as an instant esthetic treatment; it is one of the few procedures to provide immediate improvement or enhancement of appearance with little or no downtime. I believe that different fillers have different qualities and that using the best possible filler for each area of treatment is the key to achieving the most natural and beautiful result possible. I use many different fillers, including Restylane™, Cosmoderm™, Cosmoplast™ and of course, one of my most popular procedures, fat injections. Radiesse™, which can potentially last 9 to 12 months, and Sculptra™, which can potentially last 2 years, are two new long term fillers that are now available. I am also one of the select number of physicians able to inject Juvederm™, a great new Hylauronic Acid based filler.
