Hair loss is one of the most disappointing cosmetic issues that can affect both men and womenbut there are treatment options out there!! This patient came to see me because she had been noticing a gradual thinning of hair throughout her scalp. I treated her with a combination of PRP and medical and nutriceutical treatments and she is just thrilled with the result. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP): contains a high concentration of growth factorsand is drawn from your own body and reinjected back into your scalp. These injections activate stem cells in the hair follicle, which in turn promotes new hair growth.

Watch me pull a parasiteout of my patient’s head!! This pandemiccertainly has brought some interesting cases my way. This patient went to Peru and stayed in the Amazon rainforestfor one week. After his return he noticed a growing and painful nodule on his head. After incorrect diagnoses from two physicians, he came to see me. I knew he had a botfly larva burrowed in his scalp and extracted it for him. He was SUCH a good sport and his reactions are priceless! He’s cured and will have no residual issues from this, thank goodness!!

Maskne is the new acne and it is a huge struggle right now I recommend: 1a glycolic axid or benzoyl peroxide cleanser right after getting home from wearing your mask 2keep your skin hydrated and moisturized because healthy skin acts as a protectant from mask friction (I love Cerave or Eucerin) 3if you’re wearing cloth masks- wash daily! 4take a break from makeup (can worsen clogged pores under a mask) and retinols (can create more mask irritation)... 5if you’re particularly irritated, try an over the counter cortisone I’m back in the office and ready to help you with your cosmetic and medical dermatology needs! I also am doing some virtual visits if you aren’t comfortable coming in or live far away See more

God bless our beautiful country!! Happy 4th everyone!
