In today’s health-conscious world, the term “weight loss” often brings to mind strict diets, intense workout regimens, and quick-fix solutions. However, at Physician Skin Services , we believe that medical weight loss can be an essential tool in your overall health and wellness routine — when used appropriately and as part of a holistic approach to well-being. Rather than being a crutch, medical weight loss should be viewed as a supportive tool that works in tandem with other healthy lifestyle choices to promote long-term success.

When it comes to skincare and aesthetic treatments, more isn’t always better — but combining the right treatments can lead to truly transformative results. At Physician Skin Services , we specialize in a wide range of treatments, including wrinkle relaxers, fillers, PDO thread lifts, microneedling, Sculptra, laser resurfacing, fat dissolvers, and CoolSculpting. By combining these treatments strategically, we can enhance the results, address multiple concerns, and give you the best possible outcome.

As the seasons change, so should your skincare routine. Spring and summer bring warmer weather, more sun exposure, and higher humidity levels, which can affect your skin’s needs. At Physician Skin Services , we understand the importance of adjusting your skincare routine to keep your skin healthy, glowing, and protected. With the right products, like those from SkinBetter Science , you can nourish, protect, and rejuvenate your skin all season long.

Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis , can be an embarrassing and frustrating condition. Whether it’s due to physical activity, stress, or simply everyday activities, excessive sweating can affect your confidence and quality of life. Fortunately, Botox has become a popular, effective, and FDA-approved solution for treating hyperhidrosis. At Physician Skin Services , we offer Botox injections for hyperhidrosis to help manage and reduce excessive sweating, allowing you to feel comfortable and confident in your own skin. What is Hyperhidrosis? Hyperhidrosis is a condition that causes excessive sweating, often in specific areas such as the underarms , palms , feet , or face . People with hyperhidrosis may sweat even in cool temperatures or when they aren’t engaging in physical activity. This condition can lead to discomfort, embarrassment, and can interfere with daily activities and social interactions. How Does Botox Help with Hyperhidrosis? Botox works by blocking the signals from the nerves that stimulate sweat glands. When Botox is injected into the skin, it prevents the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for activating the sweat glands. By inhibiting this process, Botox temporarily stops excessive sweating in the treated areas. The results are typically seen within a few days and can last for several months, with treatment needed about every 4-6 months to maintain results.

At Physician Skin Services, we believe that beauty is about feeling confident in your own skin—whether through bold transformations or more subtle enhancements. While we offer a variety of treatments that can create dramatic changes, we also understand the power of small, thoughtful adjustments that can have a big impact. One such treatment is Latisse® , a simple yet effective solution that can transform your lashes and simplify your daily beauty routine. What Is Latisse®? Latisse® is the first FDA-approved prescription treatment for eyelash hypotrichosis, which is the condition of having inadequate or insufficient eyelashes. This innovative product is clinically proven to deliver longer, fuller, and darker lashes in just 16 weeks. Unlike other beauty products that offer temporary solutions, Latisse® works gradually to enhance your lashes' natural growth cycle, providing lasting results. Proven Results with Latisse® Clinical studies have shown impressive results for those who use Latisse®. In as little as 16 weeks, users can expect: 106% fuller lashes compared to the placebo group, which showed just a 12% increase. 25% longer lashes , whereas the placebo group only saw a 2% increase. 18% darker lashes , while the placebo group only experienced a 3% improvement. These results highlight the effectiveness of Latisse® in promoting lash growth by prolonging the anagen (growth) phase of your eyelashes. Although we don’t know exactly how Latisse® works, it’s believed to stimulate the hair follicles to remain in the growth phase longer, resulting in fuller, longer, and darker lashes over time.
