Microneedling  

Microneedling is one of the most popular and most adaptable services we offer.  We love it when this time of year rolls around to spotlight this service because there are SO many different opportunities for our patients to see results without having to use multiple modalities for results.

Think of tiny needles moving rapidly in and out above the skin making little tunnels very close together.  While our patients are comfortable during this treatment the brain actually receives signals and responds as if the skin has been injured.  From there our body goes through a healing process at the treatment area creating new and healthier collagen and elastin.  This induced healing process promotes healthier, plumper and hydrated looking skin. We all want that! With a series of treatments, you’ll notice even more improvements such as the appearance of lifted and tighter skin.  If there is an issue with problems such as acne scars, fine lines, photo-aging, dull skin, and texture inconsistencies the presence of new collagen and a healthier structure helps lessen the appearance of these issues.

In addition to the microneedling treatment, we are also offering this treatment option with the addition of PRP.  PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma. We apply the patient’s own growth factors onto the skin during their microneedling treatment to amp up the body’s response to healing.  The body recognizes this as its own and encourages collagen production as soon as It’s absorbed.  PRP is very versatile in the medical aesthetics industry- it can be applied topically as well as injected to mimic a more natural option to dermal fillers.

Here’s the best part! Microneedling isn’t only for the face! While our most frequent treatment area is the face, we also treat many other body areas with great results.  The decollete, hands, stretch mark areas, and areas that have scarring, as well as acne scarring, are all popular as well.  This treatment can adapt to almost anything we are trying to improve and correct.

Emsculpt

Emsculpt seems to be on every TV show, podcast, magazine article and blog post these days! Emsculpt is a great option for those who are in a solid gym routine and not seeing exactly what they want in their abdomen or buttock area.  Each treatment provides the equivalent of 20,000 crunches/squats in the convenience of a 30-minute office visit.  While at the gym, our workouts contract each muscle group 40-50% at best.  Emsculpt engages that muscle group as a whole (think top to bottom abdominal muscles and all three Gluteal muscles) and simultaneously contracts to 100%.  That is IMPOSSIBLE to accomplish at the gym. Not only does Emsculpt improve the muscles but it also burns fat in the treatment area. Studies show 19% fat burned and 16% muscle gain.  Impressive!  Men see a more defined, sexy abdomen while women enjoy a sleek, toned and tucked abdomen.  Not to mention a lifted, more firm booty! Maintenance is suggested to maintain results with specific package options available. If you’ve been considering Emsculpt- this is a great time to get started!

At Dermablue, we always like to take it a step further for maximum results for our patients.  We feel strongly that it is our job to deliver as much as we can to our patients to meet the needs of their skin health and appearance. Not only do our patients see amazing and worthwhile results but we enjoy the journey with you as well!

Services

Botox®

BOTOX® and Dysport are neuromodulators. These types of facial injectables target the muscles responsible for facial expressions. By temporarily blocking nerve signals, they relax these muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by repetitive muscle contractions.

Fillers

Cosmetic fillers offer a non-surgical way to enhance facial features and restore youthful volume. Since many visible signs of aging can be traced back to volume loss, fillers can help replace what is lost to help restore a more youthful appearance. We offer the complete line of Juvederm Fillers.

Injectables

Aesthetic injectables are minimally invasive cosmetic treatments that involve injecting various substances beneath the skin to achieve a range of aesthetic goals. They can target aspects of facial aging, addressing concerns like wrinkles and fine lines, loss of facial volume, & uneven skin texture.

CoolSculpting® Elite

CoolSculpting is a proven technology that is safe and effective. It is proven to work extremely well and rivals surgical results with little to no downtime. Cryolipolysis, or freezing fat; gently and effectively reduces unwanted fat by up to 25% or more per session. Freeze fat & tone muscle.

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a commonly used cosmetic procedure that utilizes concentrated beams of highly focused light to eradicate hair on various parts of the body. This method targets the hair follicles, damaging them to the extent that hair is unlikely to grow in that spot again.

Laser Resurfacing

Fractional laser resurfacing is the most effective laser treatment available for wrinkle reduction. At Dermablue, we brought the best possible technology for laser resurfacing to Asheville using the CORE CO2 fractional laser. Fractional laser resurfacing is the most effective laser treatment.
