Injectables

FAQ’s

What skin concerns do laser treatments address?

Cosmetic injectables provide a temporary reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Cosmetic fillers help to smooth lines on your forehead, between your brows, and around your eyes (crow’s feet). They can also plump up hollow cheeks and thin lips.

Tailored Health offers:

    • Botox
    • Juvéderm
    • Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP)
What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are substances that are injected into your skin to add volume. As you age, your production of hyaluronic acid reduces, so wrinkles become more apparent, your lips grow thinner, and your cheeks can appear hollow.

The dermal filler, Juvéderm, restore your levels of hyaluronic acid, hydrating and plumbing you skin to bring back youthful volume to these areas.

We provide many products from the Juvéderm line, such as:

    • Juvéderm Volbella®
    • Juvéderm Voluma® XC
    • Juvéderm® XC Ultra Plus
How does platelet-rich plasma improve my complexion?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a boosted form of your own blood. A technician draws a sample of blood, which is then spun down to concentrate the number of healing platelets.When this PRP is strategically injected into your face or applied in conjunction with microneedling, the healing factors in the platelets go to work restoring contours and plumping up gaunt areas.PRP penetrates deep under the surface of your skin to promote cellular regeneration and collagen.
What areas can be treated with cosmetic injectables?

Cosmetic injectables can be valuable for a number of facial areas that often show your age. These include:

    • Thinning lips
    • Smile lines
    • Hollowed cheeks
    • Marionette lines
    • Smoker’s lines
    • Wrinkles around the eyes

With the expert application of dermal fillers and wrinkle reducers, you look naturally more youthful. People notice you look brighter, but not like you’ve had work done.

How long do the results of cosmetic injectables last?

The effects of Botox last three or four months, while Juvéderm may offer results for up to 18 months. Exactly how long the effects of these treatments last depends on your personal metabolism, the formula used, and the area treated.

Follow-up treatments are available to help you maintain the youthful look you achieve with the fillers and wrinkle reducers.

Laser and
RF Treatments

FAQ’s

What skin concerns do laser treatments address?
Lasers provide a number of skin-enhancing services, including:
    • Clearing facial vessels and irregular pigmentation
    • Reducing the appearance of leg veins
    • Diminishing stretch marks
    • Reducing the appearance of surgical and acne scars
    • Permanently removing unwanted hair
    • Eliminating facial lines and wrinkles
What is PellevéⓇ skin tightening?
    • Pellevé addresses facial and neck laxity, such as sagging jowls and drooping skin around the eyes and cheeks.
    • Instead of laser energy, a radiofrequency system (RF) reformulates your skin’s existing collagen and encourages it to produce new collagen.
    • Pellevé treatments return a healthy-looking elasticity and tightness to your skin.
    • Pellevé is FDA approved and safe.
Results
  • You will notice a natural radiance and glow in the hours and days following Pellevé treatment.
  • As the weeks pass, collagen rebuilds, and you notice even greater results.
  • Optimal results appear after several months as your skin looks tauter, smoother, and more youthful.
What is Body FX?
    • Body FX by InModeⓇ offers cellulite and body-contouring technology through radiofrequency (RF) and negative pressure.
    • The system simultaneously destroys fat cells while contracting the skin, leaving you looking tighter and slimmer.
    • Body FX works on the abdomen, back, and thighs.
Results
    • Most men and women benefit from weekly sessions scheduled for six consecutive weeks.
    • You’ll notice improvements immediately after the sessions and in the weeks following as the fat cells are flushed out through your body’s natural waste-elimination systems.
How does Laser Hair Removal work?
    • Heat from the laser penetrates your skin and targets the pigment in your hair follicles.
    • Pigment absorbs the light, the follicle overheats and is destroyed, so hair can no longer grow.
Areas That Benefit From Treatment
    • Chest and back
    • Bikini line
    • Arms and legs
    • Upper lip and chin
    • Underarms
Treatment Cycles
    • Hair grows in cycles and must be targeted during the growth phase for laser hair removal to work.
    • You benefit from multiple treatments so that all unwanted hair is caught during this growth phase.
    • Most people need 6-12 treatments to thoroughly treat all hair follicles in a given area.

Skin Care

FAQ’s

What is Microneedling?
  • Microneedling is achieved using a device that has tiny needles that create thousands of micro-injuries when pressed against the skin.
  • The tiny holes are invisible to the eye and stimulate your body’s natural wound-healing process.
  • Your body sends growth factors and boosts collagen production to heal the area -- resulting in stronger, smoother, more radiant skin.
    What are common methods used?
      • The SkinPen® Precision system is often used to perform microneedling procedures.
      • Growth factor serum is typically applied directly following the procedure, to promote faster absorption of serum and healing of the skin.
    What is Microdermabrasion?
      • Microdermabrasion uses a device equipped with fine crystals to exfoliate your skin.
      • Remove old, dead skin cells to reveal a fresh, smoother layer.
    How does microdermabrasion work?
      • Deep exfoliation stimulates your skin’s production of collagen, a skin-strengthening protein.
      • This natural compound is plentiful in your skin when you’re young, giving you a smooth, plump, hydrated look.
      • As you age, collagen production naturally decreases.
      • Stimulating collagen production can improve skin laxity and reduce uneven texture.
    Caution Regarding Microdermabrasion Self-Treatment
      • We don't recommend microdermabrasion self-treatment at home.
      • Having it done by experienced professionals is safer and produces better results.
      • The high-quality grade of microdermabrasion offered at Tailored Health is not achievable at home.

    Hormone Optimization

    LET'S GET YOU DIALED IN

    We review:

     

    • Your Symptoms • Body Composition Analysis • Bloodwork

    In addition to simply checking testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone, we examine your blood for other factors that can contribute to how/why you are having symptoms due to hormonal imbalances. By testing all factors, including Cortisol, DHEA, Vitamin D, B12, Testosterone, Estrogen and Progesterone, we can determine what is really going on with you.

    HORMONAL BALANCE FACTORS

    Cortisol – When cortisol levels that are too high or too low, it can mimic symptoms of moderate fatigue, sleep disturbances and weight gain. When your levels are outside this ideal range, the body’s normal repair and restoration that would usually occur during sleep can’t exist properly. Without this ability, your body is not able to receive any of the benefits from optimizing your hormones.

    DHEA – DHEA is known as the “mother of all sex hormones” and affects your sense of well being and metabolism. Low DHEA can be found during menopause, which slows sex hormone production and metabolism. This can help with weight gain that is expected in middle age.

    Vitamin B12 – low levels effect energy, metabolism and the quality of your hair,nails, skin, blood and sensory nervous system.
    Vitamin D – Low Vitamin D levels can result in low energy, slower metabolism, sleep problems and poor calcium absorption resulting in inadequate bone health.
