PORTRAIT® - The Breakthrough Plasma Technology behind True Skin Regeneration
The medical community has been using plasmas – highly charged ionized gas – for many years. Rhytec, a world leader in energy-based technologies, has successfully translated this revolutionary technology to the specialties of dermatology and cosmetic surgery. Known as Portrait®, the Plasma Skin Regeneration procedure is unparalleled for wrinkle reduction, tightening, and improvement in skin tone and texture. No other procedure treats more conditions at the same time — all of which are achieved with a low risk profile in which your own skin acts as a natural biological dressing during the healing process.

Our health, both physical and emotional, is intimately linked with our outward appearance. When we are not caring for ourselves properly on the outside, our skin shows it! That's why it is important to treat ourselves to customized skin care, treatments and products. Dr. Garcia's skin care personnel offers the use of the latest innovations and medical discoveries.

RESTYLANE New! View 3D Procedure
Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. Restylane is the first cosmetic dermal filler made of non-animal based hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that already exists in the human body and is used to provide volume and fullness to the skin.

BOTOX® COSMETIC INJECTIONS New! View 3D Procedure
BOTOX® Cosmetic injections temporarily remove frown lines and crow's feet. Becoming one of the most popular cosmetic surgery treatments done in the past few years, it can significantly relax the muscles between the eyebrows, the forehead, and around the corners of the eyes. This relaxation can soften what are referred to as dynamic lines, or the wrinkles that show up when animating the face. Static wrinkles, although best treated with a dermal filler like collagen, can also be subtly improved if there is a degree of tension in the muscle. The effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic injections will typically last between 4-6 months, depending on the strength of the muscle. In patients that have repeated injection, the muscle will at times weaken so that the duration of the BOTOX® Cosmetic lasts longer. Typical treatment times are between 5-10 minutes and are essentially painless. Results are seen as early as 48 hours, although maximum weakening of the muscles can take up to one week. We recommend that BOTOX® Cosmetic injections only be done in a physician’s office in order to maintain sterility and maximum patient safety. Although there are physicians out there that perform BOTOX® Cosmetic injections in other than the above places, we do not recommend other areas, as there is a significant chance of paralysis and weakness, which can be deforming.

LASER TONING New! View 3D Procedure
Non-ablative laser toning with the Medlite Q-switched Nd:YAG laser improves the quality and texture of the skin through subtle heating of deep dermal layers which stimulates collagen regeneration. The result is gradual, natural results through a series of treatments which shrink pore size, improves fine lines, wrinkles and acne, and decreases the appearance of mild to moderate scars.

Laser toning has many advantages over ablative rejuvenation techniques including: no downtime, quick treatment times, minimal patient discomfort, the ability to treat all skin types, minimal to no adverse reactions or contraindications, offers the patient a relatively inexpensive procedure, and it can be combined with other cosmetic treatments.

COLLAGEN INJECTIONS New! View 3D Procedure
Minimizes wrinkles and plumps small or depressed skin areas. Traditional collagen injections were done with a bovine derived product, but just recently, new human derived collagen has become available to our patients. This type of injection does not require a test for allergy to the collagen, and typical treatment times are 30-60 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated.

LASER SURGERY New! View 3D Procedure
Laser Surgery can dramatically improve the look and feel of your skin. Check out the before and after photos for some examples.

TATTOO REMOVAL
Tattoo Removal with the Medlite Laser System. The Medlite uses a light wavelength which passes through skin, but is absorbed by most inks. The Medlite also delivers the light in very short, high intensity pulses for maximum ink destruction. The use of this specific combination of wavelength and rapidly pulsed light results in minimal damage to the skin while providing maximum tattoo ink removal.

PERMANENT MAKE-UP
The application of micropigmentation (more commonly known as permanent make-up) is a unique combination of artistic ability and technical skill. To create the most natural results, technique, placement, color, artistry and good judgement are paramount. Sally Hayes offers complimentary consultations, visit her website at www.sallyhayes.com.
