Our Services

At the Austin Plastic Surgery Institute Skin Care Clinic, we are concerned not only with how you look, but also with your skin's deeper physical health. Good skin and beauty come from more than just what you take care of daily on the surface. No matter what combination of invasive or non-invasive tactics you use to stay healthy and to have a great complexion, the advice of a professional in a medical environment can be vital to achieving your goals. Our staff in Austin, Texas want to work with you on what services will bring you the best aesthetic result and make the most positive change in your life. That's why all of our services are provided only after consultation with our skin care professionals, and, if necessary, further consultation with one of our on-site, board certified plastic surgeons. To learn more about each of the specific procedures we offer, read more in our list of services below.

Juvéderm™

Juvéderm™ is a Hyaluronic Acid gel.  What sets it apart from other dermal fillers is the production through HYLACROSS™ technology, creating a high degree of cross-linking, resulting in a smooth consistency and promoting duration for up to 6 months or longer.  Learn more about Juvéderm™ 

Restylane^® or Perlane^®

Restylane^®  and Perlane^® are injectable fillers used like collagen, but unlike collagen, consist of Hyaluronic Acid gel which occurs naturally within the body. They are used to eliminate wrinkles (fine and deep) and  to plump up lips and sunken areas. Perlane^® is a larger molecule and can be used on deeper lines or for extra plump lips. Both fillers will last 6-12 months. To learn more about these injections, please visit www.restylane.com. 

Radiesse^®

A dermal filler made of unique calcium-based microspheres suspended in a natural gel, causing it to last longer than the former leading fillers.  It lasts approximately 12-24 months and is safe for deep lines and wrinkles, such as the creases that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth.  We do not inject this product in the lips.  To learn more about Radiesse^® injections, please visit www.radiesse.com.

Permanent Makeup

The micropigmentation performed by your permanent makeup artist combines aesthetic ability and technical skill. Applied with proficiency, technique, proper placement and precise color selection, permanent makeup is designed to enhance your features naturally and work together with topical makeup.

IPL

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) photorejuvenation (photofacial) improves the appearance of sun-damaged skin on the face and body by treating broken capillaries, age spots, sun-induced freckles and other sun damage. IPL also improves collagen production and helps pores appear smaller.  

Laser Hair Removal

We use the technology of the Gentle LASE plus laser for maximum comfort. The procedure can be done on most areas of the body, excluding the eyebrows. Laser Hair Removal is not for everyone, so we highly recommend you come in for a consultation before making your appointment for hair removal. 

Spider Vein Treatment

Sclerotherapy is the injection of sclerosing agents into spider veins.  You will wear elastic tape and support hose for three to four days after the treatment. Spider veins usually require multiple treatments.  We do not treat varicose veins.  Please schedule a consultation to discuss the difference between the two.

Facial

As we age, our skin's ability to produce collagen and to naturally exfoliate diminishes and we begin to see various signs of aging.  Aesthetic skin care can minimize these changes and help slow the signs of aging.  We use the highest quality products that are only available through a physicians office.  Done on a regular basis, our facial treatments will help rediscover the natural luminosity and radiance of your skin.  Each 45 minute facial treatment is customized to your individual skin and your specific concerns.  The treatments are designed to restore clarity, texture, elasticity and firmness while smoothing out fine lines.  AHAs and other chemical exfoliants are used at varying strengths depending on the skin condition treated and the desired results. 

Dermaplaning

This procedure is performed by gently moving a scalpel over surface layers of the face.  It's a non-invasive treatment, and can be performed on its own or prior to other skin care treatments in order to enhance their effectiveness.  It is also a great way to exfoliate, remove excess hair and helps makeup to go on flawlessly.

Lactic Peel

A Lactic Acid peel is a mild facial treatment for patients with sensitive skin.  It can also benefit people who are new to chemical peels and would like to advance to stronger treatments in the future.  The peel comes in varying strengths and is an effective treatment for sun dammaged, dry, and/or acne prone skin.  It is also highly recommended for patients with Rosacea.  Because of Lactic Acid's mild nature, it will not exacerbate the redness.  For maximum results, Lactic peels should be done once a week for a series of 6 treatments.

Illuminize Peel

A blend of Mandelic, Malic, Phytic, and Salicylic Acid with Resorcinol to maximize skin rejuvenating effects with low irritation.  You will experience little or no visible peeling and minimal downtime and discomfort.  To learn more about the Illuminize Peel, please visit http://www.skinmedicaaesthetics.com/products/peels/illuminize-peel.

Vitalize Peel

A blend of Alpha-hydroxy acid and Retinoic acid applied to the face in two to three layers that results in extensive superficial peeling 48 hours later. It greatly improves the skin's texture and tone, removes sun-damaged skin, and lessens the appearance of fine lines. The Vitalize peel stimulates collagen production in the cells under the skin, and is safe and gentle for all skin types. 

Jessners Peel

A blend of salicylic acid, lactic acid and resorcinal.  Resorcinal allows acids to penetrate evenly and deeper for better results.  This peel is great for controlling and reducing acne and can also be beneficial in removing sun damage, and decreasing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

VI Peel

A blend of Alpha-hydroxy, TCA, and Phenol acids. This peel will treat your skin on all different levels addressing sun damage, texture, fine lines, and acne. The phenol numbs the skin making it virtually painless. Great for all skin types!

TCA Peel

TCA (Trichloroacetic acid) can be used in varying strengths, and is most commonly used for medium depth peeling.  We offer both 10% and 20% TCA peels.  The TCA peel is great for surface wrinkles, superficial blemishes, and pigmentation problems.  TCA is used on the face, undereyes, as well as other areas of the body such as hands, forearms, and chest.
