Benefits of a Microdermabrasion

Many people confuse Microdermabrasion with Dermabrasion, which is an extremely aggressive resurfacing of the skin performed as a surgical procedure under sedation and requiring several days to weeks of downtime. A microdermabrasion is a more gentle advanced form of skin exfoliation and usually requires little to no downtime. Skin is continuously in the process of replacing itself by producing new skin cells. Microdermabrasion accelerates this process by removing dead skin cells in a short time frame. This removal which can be done at Eastside Dematology & Skin Care Center, when repeated in a series, encourages faster production and turnover of new fresh skin cells resulting in clearer, brighter, smoother, healthier looking skin. This treatment may also improve the appearance of stretch marks and scars.

Eastside Dermatology & Skin Care Center in Columbus offers crystal microdermabrasion at their East location and Crystal Free Diamond Tip Microdermabrasion at their Hilliard, Ohio office. Danita Green is the Licensed Esthetician at the Eastside office and B.C. Tilton is the Licensed Clinical Esthetician at the Hilliard location.

Benefits of Tumescent Liposuction

Columbus Tumescent Liposuction

According to a survey conducted by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), standard tumescent liposuction is the most preferred method of liposuction. Dr. Jeffery Klein, a dermatologist, developed the technique in the mid-1980s. At that time, all liposuction procedures were performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Klein thought that the use of a local anesthetic would be beneficial, at least in patients that need smaller volumes of fat removed. He found that the use of local anesthetic significantly reduced post-operative side effects, and that local anesthetic could be used on patients needing larger volumes of fat removed. During the next few years, Dr. Klein refined the tumescent liposuction technique, and began educating other physicians about this exciting development in the field.
