glowing skin with lasemd ultra

Lutronic LaseMD ULTRA is a low-downtime laser that resurfaces the skin, giving it brighter tone and improved texture. Treatments can be customized for your particular needs and schedule. ULTRA can be used anywhere on the body for treatment of fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, freckles, sun spots, non-cancerous pigmented lesions, sun damage, and even Melasma.

Lutronic ULTRA is the next generation thulium laser (improved over LaseMD). It has 20 watts of power (as opposed to LaseMD which as 5 watts of power). Therefore, treatments with ULTRA are faster and can be titrated to a more powerful strength, giving improved results.

what are the benefits of Lutronic LasemD ultra Laser?

Glowing skin with improved tone and texture for a smoother and brighter complexion is what patients rave about.

• Improved appearance of scars

• Reduce pigment and sun damage for brighter appearance of skin

• Can be used on skin anywhere on the face/body

• Low downtime

• Safe for all skin types

• Safe for use all year round

how does LaseMD ultra work?

• ULTRA is a 1927 nm wavelength laser which resurfaces the skin in the epidermis and dermis.

• ULTRA targets water instead of pigment, resulting in a more even treatment. It is less likely to cause unintentional burns than IPL which targets pigment. Thus it is safe for all skin types.

• ULTRA causes non-ablative, microscopic injuries which stimulates new collagen production, and has a fast recovery period.

What is the Ultra treatment like?

Patients can expect mild redness after the treatment, but you look great! You don’t have to worry about taking time off from work or hiding at home for an extended recovery time. You can wear 100% tinted mineral sunscreen right away to reduce the appearance of redness - our favorite is EltaMD UV Elements.

• Your provider at Rejuve Medspa may apply numbing cream prior to treatment depending on the settings and goals for your treatment. For the “Glo and Go” treatment, no numbing medication is required.

• Patients describe the Ultra treatment as a warm, tingling sensation which may vary. The treatment time may range from 10-20 minutes or longer depending on how much area is being treated.

• Immediately following the treatment, you will notice some redness which will lessen over the next day or so.

• The following 5-6 days, your skin will have a dry, sandpaper-like texture. This is normal and will resolve as your skin exfoliates, revealing fresher, clearer skin.

Clarity II Laser with Ultra Laser

Clarity II can be pared with LaseMD Ultra Laser for enhanced reduction of unwanted pigment, resulting in a brighter, smoother complexion.

HEALITE with Ultra Laser

Although the healing time with the Ultra Laser is very quick, HEALITE can further speed recovery and enhance collagen stimulation to improve overall results.

Exosomes with Ultra Laser

Exosome Regenerative Complex promotes skin cell proliferation by up to 80%, resulting in an increase in the Elastin amount of human dermal fibroblasts up to 300%. The Ultra Laser creates tiny micro channels on the skin allowing for the absorption of Exosomes to both speed recovery and boost the rejuvenating benefits of this laser treatment.

What is Sculptra and Why Choose Sculptra Over Dermal Filler?

What is Sculptra vs dermal filler?

What’s difference between dermal fillers and Scupltra? Sculptra is an injectable biostimulator made of of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Sculptra has a liquid consistency and is injected underneath the skin. Once injected, Sculptra incorporates into the tissues and stimulates your body’s natural production of collagen.

On the other hand, dermal fillers are made of Hyaluronic acid designed to hold its shape in the form of a gel-like substance. Dermal fillers do not stimulate collagen production, but rather are meant to temporarily replace missing volume. The effects of dermal filler are apparent immediately. Whereas the effects of Sculptra happens gradually since it takes time for the body to build collagen.

Both Dermal filler and Sculptra are designed to address lost volume, fine lines, folds and wrinkles. Due to the aging process, environmental stressors, and our genetic predisposition, we suffer from loss of collagen at a rate of about 1% annually after the age of 20. Loss of collagen leads to thinning of skin which results in the formation of wrinkles and folds. Collagen is a fibrous protein in the deep dermal layer that gives our skin structural support and helps to maintain shape, moisture, and elasticity of the skin. A healthy supply of collagen is the source of smooth skin and a youthful appearance.

How does sculptra work?

SCULPTRA (PLLA) is a bio-stimulating treatment. Sculptra works by addressing the underlying cause of aging skin from loss of collagen. Once injected in the face (or buttocks), Sculptra stimulates the natural growth of new collagen. This leads to restoration of facial volume over time and a dramatic improvement of the skin texture. Results are natural and become noticeable after 2-4 sessions (based on individual concerns). The effects of Sculptra can last up to 25 months.

am i a good candidate for sculptra?

Good candidates for Sculptra should have healthy immune systems and no history of keloid scars. Also, you should not have a medical condition that requires you to take blood thinners.

What to expect with Sculptra treatment?

Your provider at Rejuve Medspa will ensure your treatment will be performed under sterile precautions with the utmost care and comfort using numbing agents and distracting tools. Sculptra is injected in the face under ultrasound guidance (to mitigate potential complications) utilizing microcannula. We make an initial puncture with the trocar needle and use this opening to glide a blunt cannula (similar to IV catheter) to inject the product to the desired areas. After the treatment the client will need to massage the area for five minutes, five times a day for five days. This step is crucial so that biostimulating microparticles get evenly distributed and start stimulating collagen.

How do I prepare for Sculptra treatment?

We recommend staying well hydrated with ideally 8 glasses of water in a 24 hour hour period prior to the day of treatment. Please, avoid wearing makeup the day  of the treatment. We will cleanse your skin thoroughly prior to the procedure to prevent infection.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME with Sculptra?

You can expect to have mild soreness and swelling at the injection sites for about 1 week until the Sculptra incorporates into the tissues. Bruising can sometimes occur, but the risk is minimized with the use of ultrasound to avoid vessels and with the use of blunt-tip microcannulas for injection.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT RESULTS with sculptra?

Subtle results can typically be seen within a month of Sculptra injection. These results will continue to build as new collagen can take up to 6 months to form.

Exosomes - A Breakthrough in Regenerative Aesthetics

We are living in an exciting era of rapid expansion in technology and capability with regards to anti-aging therapies. We no longer have to look our age, but rather we can potentially look the age we want to feel. Accomplishing this requires early intervention, prevention and maintenance. Exosomes are a cutting edge scientific biotech breakthrough for skin rejuvenation and regeneration.

What are Exosomes?

Exosomes are responsible for all cell to cell communication, bridging stem cell function with growth factors, cytokines and immune cells important for tissue repair and regeneration. In other words, Exosomes serve as “messengers” within the body, transferring information from cell to cell such as the exchange of RNA and other important proteins responsible for healing (fibroblasts, keratinocytes, immune cells, etc.).

What are the benefits of exosomes?

Exosomes improve skin quality to promote a more youthful, radiant appearance. Exosomes perform best when paired with skin tightening treatments such as microneedling, Genius RF microneedling, or LaseMD Ultra fractional laser to speed recovery and enhance results after these rejuvenating treatments.

• Reduce appearance of age related pigment

• Reduce fine lines & wrinkles

• Tighten appearance of loose skin

• Hydrate & nourish skin

• Promote a more radiant and even-toned complexion

• Speed recovery and enhance results after microneedling or laser treatments

Exosome Regenerative Complex:

Exosome Regenerative Complex contains stem cell derived lyophilized exosomes, potent growth factors, peptides, coenzymes, minerals, amino acids and vitamins. It is an intensive dual-action complex formulated as Nano particles to absorb quickly into the skin. Exosome Regenerative Complex is a patented product that is paraben-free, steroid-free, hypoallergenic, and clinically proven to rejuvenate and regenerate the skin.

In Vitro Testing:

Exosome Regenerative Complex promotes skin cell proliferation by up to 80% in a dose-dependent manner. This results in an increase in the Elastin amount of human dermal fibroblasts up to 300%.

how Do We Use Exosomes?

To enjoy the many benefits of Exosome Regenerative Complex, it is applied directly to the skin immediately after microneedling, Genius RF microneedling or LaseMD fractional laser treatments. You can expect an expedited recovery time and enhanced results of skin tightening, improved skin tone/texture, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles for an overall rejuvenating effect.

Exosome Regenerative Complex is not a drug product. It is not intended to prevent, treat, or cure diseases or medical conditions. It is not intended to be injected or delivered intravenously.

Beware of Retail Products claiming to have Exosomes

Exosomes are naturally secreted nanoparticles coming off of growing stem cells that harness potential for regenerative effects. But how are Exosomes extracted for clinical use? Benev Exosomes are manufactured using a very specific scientific process referred to as ExoSCRT that has been perfected after decades of research. After the Exosomes are carefully extracted from stem cells, they are freeze dried and then purified, thereby removing any debris or contaminants.

ExoSCRT is a patented process that utilizes a dual filtration method to purify exosomes from proliferating adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells. Not only is the ExoSCRT process very unique to Benev Exosome Regenerative Complex, they go one step further to lyophilize the purified Exosomes. What exactly does lyophilizing actually do? Exosomes are known to have regenerative capacity and biological properties. ExoSCRT aims to preserve this regenerative activity up until the very point that they can be used. In order to do that, the extracted exosomes are lyophilized and purified into a form that keeps them stable and preserves their biological activity. The product needs to be refrigerated and used within 3-4 hours of reconstitution.

So if you are purchasing a retail product that claims to contain “exosomes”, please consider how stable and effective they can possibly be. Remember that Exosomes are extremely fragile, requiring care in their extraction, purification and storage to maintain its efficacy.

Healthy Skin, Healthy Body at Rejuve Medspa

We are proud to be featured in an article written by Amy George for the Newcastle Living Magazine published in their July edition. The article captures the essence of our business philosophy. We are happy to share the contents of the article written below:

Healthy Skin, Healthy Body at Rejuve Medspa

By Amy George

The philosophy of a business often reflects the experiences and interests of its founder. Rejuve Medspa has several core values, one of which is to “treat each person as unique individuals, celebrating their unique qualities rather than trying to standardize beauty.” After working 20 years in emergency medicine, owner Dr. Giao Kaplan made the shift to aesthetic medicine so she could do just that.

As a board-certified emergency physician, Dr. Kaplan managed acute medical issues. She found herself wanting to focus on prevention and wellness with a schedule that would allow her “to spend ample time with patients and to develop continuity of care and personal connections.” An added bonus would be the opportunity to combine her science background with her artistic talents and creativity.

Dr. Kaplan retired from emergency medicine and started working exclusively as an aesthetic physician. Less than a year later, she opened Rejuve Medspa in Newcastle Commons in February 2021. The medical spa offers a wide range of treatments and services, including anti-aging therapies, regenerative medical treatments, and body contouring. The team offers everything from scar and acne revision and hair restoration to cellulite removal and laser skin resurfacing.

Patient experience is at the top of Rejuve’s core values. “Every patient needs to feel special,” said Dr. Kaplan. “We provide a relaxing, comfortable environment in a spa-like setting.” Patients receive customized treatment options with the aim of achieving natural-looking results in the most efficient way. “We educate and engage patients so they can choose the best treatment options in order to achieve their aesthetic goals.”

As Medical Director, Dr. Kaplan prioritizes safety. “We place a strong emphasis on continuing medical education,” Dr. Kaplan shared. The staff stay current on technologies and treatments, thoroughly research their equipment and procedures, and choose products and devices that are “clinically proven to be efficacious based on clinical trials and FDA clearances.”

In addition to the team’s clinical expertise is the safety of the building itself. “Rejuve Medspa was designed and built during the height of the COVID pandemic with safety in mind,” said Dr. Kapan. Rejuve has a special ventilation system specifically designed to filter out bacterial and viral pathogens. Fans and vents in treatment rooms redirect air outside to prevent cross-contamination; though, in keeping with the spa environment, they are hidden behind wood-slatted ceilings.

When asked what she enjoys most about her job, Dr. Kaplan said that she appreciates “interacting and building personal connections with clients and understanding and treating their aesthetic goals.” That sense of connection expands to her staff. “Every member of the Rejuve team is equally valued. We are dedicated to helping one another thrive, learn, and grow.”

Choosing to locate Rejuve Medspa in Newcastle was not a coincidence for Dr. Kaplan. From 2006 to 2013, she and her family lived in the China Falls neighborhood and “we fell in love with the Newcastle community.” Her aspiration to become “known as Newcastle’s premiere destination for healthy skin and body.”

Outside of her career, Dr. Kaplan enjoys architecture and design, drawing, painting, and gardening. Her favorite activity is spending time with her family – her husband Andy and her daughter Zoe and son Anders. Between hip hop dance, Tae Kwon Do and more, the kids keep their parents busy. Together, they enjoy family gatherings and traveling.

Emsculpt NEO - More Muscle, Less Fat

Emsculpt NEO is a revolutionary body contouring device that simultaneously builds muscle while also eliminating fat and tightening skin. Emsculpt NEO adds Radiofrequency heat combined with HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electro Magnetic Energy) to build 25% more muscle and 30% less fat on average after 4 sessions based on evidence from clinical trials.

We lose 3-5% of our muscle mass per decade beginning at the age of 30 years. Muscle mass is naturally impacted by decreases in growth hormone, testosterone and estrogen levels. Importantly, any loss of muscle mass will accelerate fat gain.

EMSCULPT NEO - SYNCHRONIZED RF + HIFEM

• Emsculpt NEO is the only patented Synchronized RF (Radiofrequency) heating device that works simultaneously within a magnetic field.

• Emsculpt NEO is the #1 muscle sculpting technology with newly designed protocols to combine HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy) with RF heating.

EMSCULPT NEO

Emsculpt NEO combines two technologies in one device.

Clinical studies have shown dramatic results after three 30-minute sessions spaced 5-10 days apart:

• 25% MORE Muscle

• 30% LESS Fat

• 5.9 cm reduction in waste circumference

• 19% improvement in Diastasis Recti

how is emsculpt neo different from emsculpt classic?

• Radiofrequency in NEO adds skin tightening, MORE fat reduction and MORE muscle building

• Fat Reduction: 30% with NEO vs 19% with Classic Emsculpt

• Muscle building: 25% with NEO vs 16% with Classic Emsculpt

• Diastasis Recti (abdominal separation): 19% with NEO vs 11% with Classic Emscupt

• Skin Tightening: new benefit with NEO vs no skin tightening benefit with Classic Emsculpt

• Waist Circumference Reduction: 5.9 cm waist circumference reduction with NEO, 4.37 cm with Classic Emsculpt

• Treatment areas: New FDA cleared areas for treatment including inner thighs, anterior and posterior thighs with NEO

• Comfort of treatment: NEO feels more comfortable with the addition of radiofrequency heat and due to changes in the muscle contraction protocol.

EMSCULPT NEO before & after photos:

how does EMSCULPT neo work?

Emsculpt NEO has taken body sculpting to the next level. Not only does it build muscle, it also eliminates fat and tightens skin at the same time. Using High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy (HIFEM) to contract muscles about 20,000 times during a 30 minute session, Emsculpt NEO has been clinically shown to reduce fat on average of about 30%, while increasing the thickness of muscle by 25% after 3 sessions.

Due to the RF heating, Emsculpt NEO is the only aesthetic procedure that works out heated muscles. The muscle temperature quickly raises by several degrees. The muscles are prepared for exposure to stress similar to what a warm up activity does before any workout. In less than 4 minutes, the temperature in subcutaneous fat reaches that cause apoptosis, i.e. fat cells are permanently destroyed and slowly removed from the body.

Bypassing the brain limitations, HIFEM+ energy contracts muscles fibers in the treated area at intensities that are not achievable during voluntary workout. Extreme stress forces the muscle to adapt, resulting in muscle fiber hypertrophy (enlargement of single muscle fibers) and hyperplasia (increase number of muscle fibers).

WHAT ARE THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF EMSCULPT neo?

• Improved core strength

• Improved posture

• Improved low back pain

• Can be used for rehabilitation after injury or surgery

• Improved diastasis (abdominal wall muscle separation) which commonly happens after pregnancy

• Tightened appearance of skin

• Improved Metabolism

Muscle mass improves metabolism and contributes to weight loss in several key ways:

1. Increased Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): Muscle tissue is metabolically active and burns more calories at rest compared to fat tissue. This means that the more muscle mass you have, the higher your BMR, which is the number of calories your body needs to maintain basic physiological functions while at rest.

2. Higher Caloric Expenditure: During physical activity, muscles require more energy, resulting in a higher caloric burn. This is true for both resistance training and everyday movements, making weight management more efficient.

3. Enhanced Post-Exercise Caloric Burn: Building muscle through strength training causes your body to continue burning calories even after the workout is finished, a phenomenon known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC).

4. Improved Insulin Sensitivity: Increased muscle mass improves the body’s ability to respond to insulin, which helps regulate blood sugar levels more effectively. Better insulin sensitivity reduces the likelihood of fat storage and aids in maintaining a healthy weight.

5. Fat Utilization: Having more muscle mass shifts the body’s energy utilization towards burning fat, especially during periods of calorie restriction or weight loss efforts.

6. Support for Healthy Hormone Levels: Muscle mass helps maintain balanced hormone levels, including those that regulate metabolism and appetite. This hormonal balance supports sustained weight loss and prevents metabolic slowdown.

By enhancing metabolic rate and increasing the body’s efficiency in burning calories and utilizing fat, muscle mass plays a crucial role in both weight loss and long-term weight management.

How Many Emsculpt NEO Sessions Will I Need?

4 sessions is the minimum number for best results. Although many clients will benefit more from 6-8 treatments. Sessions are spaced about 1 week apart (range from 5-10 days).

core to floor

Core Strength includes abdominal, gluteal and pelvic floor muscles. Emculpt NEO can be combined with EMSELLA to improve your Whole Core.

Core to Floor Therapy is specifically designed to combat conditions such as incontinence and abdominal muscle separation. Improving core strength can also aid in relieving low back pain.

NINE AREAS EMSCULPT NEO CAN TREAT:

• Abdomen

• Buttocks

• Biceps

• Triceps

• Front thighs

• Back Thighs

• Inner Thighs

• Side Thighs (Saddle bags)

• Calves

WHAT IS EMSCULPT NEO TREATMENT LIKE?

Emsculpt NEO feels like intense muscle contractions combined with warm heat. Your provider can titrate the intensity of the muscle contractions and heat based on individual needs and comfort levels. The HIFEM contractions are equivalent to doing 20,000 sit-ups in 30 minutes. You might have mild muscle soreness after Emsculpt NEO, but most people do not. This is because Emsculpt NEO alternates between intense contractions and tapping which helps to release lactic acid build up in the muscles caused by the intense contractions.

Emsculpt NEO is non-invasive, safe, and comfortable. For optimal results, a series of 4 treatments, 5-10 days apart is recommended. We also recommend that you drink 2 liters of water the day before and 1.5 liters of water on the day of treatment to help improve the elimination of dead fat cells through your lymphatic system. Wear loose clothing and avoid clothing with zippers or metal.

IS EMSCULPT neo RIGHT FOR ME?

It is best to schedule a consultation with our doctor to determine if you are the right candidate for treatment. Emsculpt NEO should be avoided if you have metal implants in your spine, pacemaker/defibrillator, implanted medication pumps, copper IUD, or pregnancy.

Emsculpt NEO is best suited for people who have a BMI (body mass index) of 30% or less. Since muscle weighs more than fat, Emsculpt NEO typically does not cause any significant weight loss. It is highly recommended that candidates who are seeking this body sculpting treatment to maintain a healthy diet and exercise program.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME WITH EMSCULPT neo?

There is no downtime with Emsculpt NEO. You can get back to your normal activities right away. However, since you are receiving 20K supramaximal muscle contractions in a 30 minute session, your treated muscles will benefit from rest the day before, the day of and the day after your treatment in order to focus on efficiently building muscle fibers. Excessive workout of the treated muscles can lead to muscle fatigue which will not set the most optimal conditions for successful muscle building. Cardio workout, and weight-lifting other muscle groups should be fine in conjunction with Emsculpt NEO.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULTS WITH EMSCULPT neo?

Clinical studies have shown that results can be seen within a month and can continue to improve for up to 3-6 months. Results remain stable for about a year without change in diet or exercise. It is recommended that you maintain a well-balanced healthy diet and routine exercise regimen.

How does Emsculpt NEO compare with Cooltone or Coolsculpting?

Emsculpt NEO is the only FDA cleared body sculpting device that combines both radiofrequency with muscle building capability using a patented HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electro Magnetic Energy) technology. The muscle contractions with Emsculpt NEO is much more intense and powerful compared with Cooltone. The added Radiofrequency enhances both the muscle building and the fat reduction capacity of Emsculpt NEO.

Coolsculpting uses cooling to destroy fat cells. The process takes up to 3 months to see results. Potential complications of coolsculpting include temporary numbness at the treatment site and a 1% chance of Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia which can cause an unexpected, paradoxical overgrowth (hyperplasia) of fatty (adipose) tissue. Coolsculpting does not enhance muscle building.

Emsculpt NEO has no reported risk of Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia or numbness. Emsculpt NEO promotes health benefits related its muscle building such as improved metabolism and muscle strength. Building core strength also helps to relieve back pain for many people.

Award Winning Emsculpt NEO

Emsculpt NEO has won various industry awards including from best-in-class aesthetic publications such as ELLE, Glamour, Shape, InStyle, New Beauty, Shape, and AMWC.

Edge applicators

The new Emsculpt NEO Edge applicators have the largest spot size in the industry, allowing for treatment of the sides including all oblique muscles. This 30 minute treatment combines RF and HIFEM to simultaneously burn fat reduction and build muscle. The results are impressive. The EDGE applicators are quickly becoming a staff and client favorite. An EDGE treatment can be done alone or it can be done in addition to the abdominal applicators for a 360 degree coverage of the abdominal and waist areas for fat reduction.

Dermal Fillers

what are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are game changers in the field of medical aesthetics. For the last decade the choices of fillers and advancements in techniques have allowed us to reverse the effects of aging, perfect and celebrate our natural beauty, and to add finesse to our facial features. Dermal fillers made with Hyaluronic acid (HA) are designed to replace volume loss in the areas of cheeks, temple, mid and lower face, chin, jawline and lips. Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide (glucose molecule) which is naturally occurring in our body as it is a building block of our connective tissues.

how do dermal fillers work?

We are fortunate to offer many HA fillers in our practice. However, not all fillers are the same and are therefore not interchangeable. Fillers have unique chemical and physical properties, and are designed to be injected into specific areas of the face. Fillers that are intended to create a lift are thicker gels, which create vertical lift. Other fillers are designed for mobile areas, such as lips. Those fillers have unique properties allowing for free and unrestricted mobility of the tissues. Fillers have different longevity based on their physical structure, mobility of the treatment area, and metabolic rate of the client. For example, fillers placed in lips have the shortest duration due to constant movements of the lips (3 to 9 months). Fillers used for cheek bone enhancement have the most longevity, up to 12-24 months.

Lip Filler

• Enhance lip shape

• Showcase Lip definition

• Plump thin lips

• Hydrate lip lines

• Promote light distribution on lips to improve depth perception and overall lip curvature.

• Correct asymmetry

Cheek Filler

• Creates lift

• Reduces prominence of the nasolabial fold

• Slims appearance of face

• Replaces lost volume

• Supports the under eye area to reduce appearance of eye hollowing

• Enhances profile

am i a good candidate for dermal filler?

This is a great question. Filler is indicated to treat volume loss of the face, for correction of asymmetry, and for diminishing fine lines and folds. Clients often wonder if there is a particular age they should be starting to think about fillers. The answer is no. We frequently treat younger clients with the purpose of beautification, such as hydrating and defining lips, chin and jawline contouring, and correction of asymmetry. Restoration treatments are applicable for more mature clients who frequently look for replenishing of volume loss, correction of folds and fine lines.

There are several contraindications for fillers based on one’s medical conditions. Some of the contraindications include history of severe allergies, pregnancy and breastfeeding, known allergy to HA filler or lidocaine, active infectious process, and being treated with blood thinners. As far as aesthetic indications, we make those determinations on a case by case basis.

whAT CAN I EXPECT DURING DERMAL FILLER TREATMENT?

Your provider will discuss with you the procedure, including goals, realistic expectations, potential complications and after care. In our practice we utilize ultrasound to avoid inadvertent arterial injection, and we use Accuvein device to avoid bruising. We also use micro cannula technique to ensure safety and accuracy, and to minimize any chance of bruising. Your comfort during this treatment is our great priority. We use various techniques to enhance your relaxation and minimize discomfort.

HA fillers are reversible by a naturally occurring enzyme called hyaluronidase which can be used to reverse HA filler in the rare case of complications of undesirable effects.

HOW DO i PREPARE FOR DERMAL FILLER BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT?

Unlike many other aesthetic procedures, filler requires very little preparation. In order to minimize bruising, we recommend avoiding alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen-type medications, flaxseed and vitamin E 2-3 days prior to treatment. Please let us know if you are recovering from infections, have been recently vaccinated or scheduled for vaccination in the next 2 weeks, and if you EVER had a history of cold sores.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER DERMAL FILLER TREATMENT?

The exciting aspect about dermal fillers is that the results will become apparent immediately. We will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions.

Laser Hair Removal - Why the Type of Laser Matters

Tired of shaving or waxing?

Want a more effective and long-lasting solution for hair removal? Laser Hair Removal permanently removes hair by destroying the hair follicles, saving time and the hassles associated with other methods of hair removal.

How many sessions will I need? Typically 5-6 sessions (this varies from person to person). You can expect 80-90% reduction of hair growth after 6 sessions.

Is it painful? Laser Hair removal with Clarity II is more comfortable than other lasers because it has continuous temperature sensing to prevent over-heating. There is also built-in cryogen that cools the skin during the laser treatment. No numbing medication is required.

What do I need to do to prepare? Your skin should be clean & well-shaven before your laser hair removal appointment.

Is there any downtime? There is minimal down-time. We will provide detailed instructions on before and after care for Laser Hair Removal.

How much does Laser Hair Removal Cost? Depending on the area, costs can vary. Please review our booking link for more information about pricing. Look under the tab labeled “Hair Removal”: Booking/Pricing link

what is the best type of device for laser hair removal?

755nm is the Gold Standard for laser hair removal. It has been clinically shown to be the most effective wavelength to target pigment contained in hair follicles to permanently destroy them. But are all devices with 755 nm wavelength created equally? Well, ask yourself if a Honda Civic has the same horse power and speed that a Ferrari does. The type of car engine determines how a car performs on the road. Consider Clarity II to be the Ferrari of Laser Hair Removal devices. Clarity II has up to 100 Joules of power, more powerful than other devices on the market.

What does more power mean & what are the benefits of clarity II?

• Two times faster treatments

• Fewer sessions required for effective permanent removal of hair

• Temperature sensing for continuous real-time skin temperature feedback

• Built-in Cryogen (cold air) to allow for more comfortable treatments

• Dual wavelength 755/1064 nm to increase safety for treating different skin types
  
  

what are the different types of hair removal and how effective are they?

There are many ways to remove unwanted hair. Shaving, hair removal creams, waxing, and epilators are temporary ways to remove hair. Each has their own disadvantages potentially leading to infection, ingrown hair, skin irritation, and even hyper-pigmentation (darkening) of skin. Laser hair removal permanently removes hair by destroying the hair follicles, saving time and the hassles associated with other methods of hair removal.

What’s the difference between IPL, DIODE and laser?

Laser is an acronym for “Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation”. Lasers have a single wavelength. Whereas IPL stands for “Intense Pulse Light”, and is a collection of very bright lights with multiple wavelengths. IPL is only safe for lighter skin types, but should not be used for people with darker skin tones due to it’s higher risk for burns. IPL is painful, thus requiring gel and numbing cream. IPL is not nearly as effective for hair reduction compared to lasers. Diode uses semiconductor technology that produces coherent projection of light in the visible to infrared range. Diode uses a light beam with a narrow spectrum to target specific chromophores in the skin. Diode is also painful and less effective than lasers for hair removal.

Why choose Clarity II?

When considering where to get Laser Hair Removal, it pays to do your homework. Compare apples to apples. IPL is not a laser, and it is not safe to use for individuals with darker skin due to the higher risk of hyper-pigmentation and burns. Some laser hair removal devices are considered painless, but may require 12 or more sessions. Clarity II is a high-powered 755/1064 nm with two different wavelengths to allow for flexibility in safely treating a broad range of skin types.

how many laser hair removal sessions will i need?

Hair growth has different stages. Lasers cannot effectively destroy a follicle in it’s dormant stage. Therefore treatment sessions will be spaced 6-8 weeks apart. It typically takes 5-6 sessions for effective Laser Hair Removal with Clarity II, but this varies from person to person based on their skin type, color and thickness of hair, and any associated hormonal imbalances or medical problems. At Rejuve Medspa, all clients seeking Laser Hair Removal will be assessed by a qualified medical doctor prior to treatment.

Is Laser Hair Removal Painful with Clarity II?

Clarity II has continuous temperature sensing to avoid over-heating during the treatment. It also has built-in cryogen to provide cold air during the treatment to help reduce any pain. Clarity II Laser Hair Removal is much less painful than IPL or Diode. Therefore, numbing medication is not required.

is there any downtime after laser hair removal?

There is minimal downtime associated with Laser Hair Removal. It is common to have mild swelling and redness around the hair follicles immediately after treatment, but this quickly resolves. You will be provided with detailed aftercare instructions following your Laser Hair Removal treatment at Rejuve Medspa.

What should I do to prepare for Laser Hair removal?

You will want to avoid tanning. Tanned skin adds more pigment to your skin, making you more prone to burns during the Laser Hair Removal treatment. Clean, well-shaven skin is advised prior to treatment.

Brotox - Botox for men

what about guys?

Historically, neuromodulators such as Botox or Dysport were considered taboo in the guy’s world. The paradigm has shifted over the last decade as the desire to look good and preserve a youthful appearance gained traction over stigma and the hesitancy of being judged. Men aren't immune to the aging process. Botox and Dysport have become popular among men because wrinkles make them appear older. A growing need to remain competitive in today’s society (job market, social media, etc.) is the driving force behind Brotox popularity.

Brotox is a nickname for the injectable neuromodulator procedure when it is referred to male clients.  Botox and Dysport temporarily relax the muscles that lead to formation of wrinkles. Skin elasticity is reduced due to loss of collagen and elastin in the skin. This causes fine lines and wrinkles to eventually become permanent deep folds. That is why early treatment to prevent wrinkles is important.

How is Botox or Dysport different for men?

While men are interested in reversing the clock and preventing wrinkles, their aesthetic goals may be different from women. Many men prefer to preserve some of their movements. Your aesthetic injector will talk to you about the balance of softening your wrinkles and maintaining a masculine look.

what areas can botox or dysport treat?

Frown lines are the most popular area requested to be treated by a male clients. After all, being grumpy does not define masculinity. Other popular areas include the forehead lines and the wrinkles around the eyes, known as the “crow’s feet”. We would be happy to customize your treatment according to your outcome expectations.

WHAT ELSE CAN botox and dysport TREAT BESIDES WRINKLES?

• Gummy smile - showing too much gums when smiling can be alleviated by relaxing the muscles that elevate when you smile.

• TMJ - teeth grinding or clenching causing jaw soreness can be improved by relaxing the masseter muscles that help with chewing.

• Uneven facial expressions - stronger muscles causing uneven facial expressions can be relaxed to create symmetry.

• Facial contouring - muscles tend to atrophy (shrink) after repeat dosing of neuromodulators. Thus jawline slimming can be achieved after treating the masseter muscles that help control chewing.

• Acne - by reducing pore size and sebum (oil) production, there is improvement of acne breakouts.

• Excessive sweating - by relaxing the sweat glands, there is less sweat production.

• Hair restoration - by relaxing the ciliary muscles that are attached to hair follicles, there is improved blood flow. Improved blood flow to the scalp allows for better nutrient (growth factor) supply to the hair follicles. One study showed 8 of 10 people treated with Botox for male pattern baldness had good to excellent results: "A Pilot Study to Evaluate Effectiveness of Botulinum Toxin in Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Males"

What’s the difference between Botox and Dysport?

Both Botox and Dysport contain Botulinum toxin Type A (BoNT-A). Botox is manufactured by Allergan, while Dysport is manufactured by Galderma. All BoNT-A products have the same size and weight of active neurotoxin. However, Botox and Dysport have different accessory protein complex components. Dysport is known to have a faster onset of action. 30% of patients have some response to Dysport within 24 hours, 73.3% have response within 48 hours, and 86.7% have response within 72 hours. However, the full effect of either Dysport or Botox will be apparent after 2 full weeks.

For most people, Botox and Dysport lasts for about 3 months. Results will vary depending on your individual muscle size, strength, and activity, among other factors. For many patients, Dysport also has a longer duration of action compared with Botox, sometimes up to 4-5 months.

how much botox or dysport will i need?

Every person responds differently to Botox and Dysport depending on the size, activity and strength of their muscles, and their metabolism. Each treatment cycle may vary based on metabolic rates, stress and activity levels. Physically active individuals tend to have shorter duration due to higher metabolic rates. The needle used to inject Botox or Dysport is very small, and the procedure is very well tolerated. There is no downtime.

Wrinkle Prevention with Botox or Dyport - What Else Can It Do?

Most people know that Botox/Dysport can help relax muscles, thereby preventing wrinkles such as frown lines, smile or laugh lines, “crow’s feet” or eye furrows, and forehead wrinkles. But did you know that Botox/Dysport can also be used to contour the face, treat TMJ or teeth grinding, or correct uneven facial features. Botox/Dysport can even treat excessive sweating and reduce pore size, thereby controlling acne. Some people also use Botox to help control migraine headaches.

WHAT IS A NEUROMODULATOR (BOTOX, DYSPORT)?

Botox is the “Kleenex” of neuromodulators. In other words, when we think of Botox, some of us don’t realize there are more than one of its kind. Neuromodulators are the family of onabotulinum toxin A proteins, which temporarily relax muscles. Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Jeuveau are four neuromodulators currently approved by the FDA in the United States.

When making facial expressions, lines form on your face as muscle under the skin contract. Each smile, frown, or squint you make contributes to the wrinkles that appear on your face. By temporarily relaxing muscles, neuromodulators soften facial creases and undesirable lines that form over time. Left untreated, some of these facial lines may leave you with unintentional worried or angry expressions.

what is the difference between botox & dysport?

Both Botox and Dysport contain Botulinum toxin Type A (BoNT-A). Botox is manufactured by Allergan, while Dysport is manufactured by Galderma. All BoNT-A products have the same size and weight of active neurotoxin. However, Botox and Dysport have different accessory protein complex components.

WHAT TO EXPECT with botox or dysport treatment?

Reducing the use of facial muscles with a neuromodulator can help smooth the appearance of facial expression lines for 3 to 4 months. Duration varies between individuals and may be affected by your metabolic rate.

During consultation, your provider at Rejuve Medspa will discuss your medical history, observe animation of your facial muscles, and develop your treatment plan. After marking targeted muscles with brow pencil, you will be injected with Botox or Dysport using a very small gauge needle. Due to the proper technique and fine size of the needle, the discomfort is minimal. You may have slight redness at the injection site, which disappears in less than an hour after treatment.

IS THIS botox or dysport RIGHT FOR ME?

Botox Cosmetic is FDA approved for adults for temporality improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, forehead and lines around the eyes known as crow’s feet. Off label use includes correction of “gummy smile”, lip lines known as “smoker’s lines”, wrinkling in the area of chin, and injection in masseter (muscle involved in chewing) for the purposes of slimming effect as well as relief of clenching and teeth grinding.

This treatment is not recommended for individuals who have infection at the proposed injection site, during pregnancy or lactation, anyone with known hypersensitivity, or in presence of certain neurological diseases. 

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME with botox or dysport?

Besides the possibility of mild redness at the injection site lasting less than an hour, this procedure is considered to have no downtime. We recommend abstaining from massaging the area, lying down flat and avoiding vigorous physical activity for about 4 hours after the treatment to prevent migration of the product from strategically injected areas.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT RESULTS with botox or dysport?

While the effects of an injection are not immediately apparent, results are visible after a few days. However, the full effect takes 14 days before you appreciate the final outcome.

WHEN SHOULD I FOLLOW UP?

FDA treatment recommended doses come in ranges. If you are a new client, we will start you on the lower end of the therapeutic range and will reassess in two weeks if you would require additional Botox enhancement. Once you are pleased with your outcome, no follow up is needed. However, we will be delighted to meet with you for any questions or concerns.

EMSCULPT - BUILD MUSCLE AND BURN FAT

EMSCULPT has taken body sculpting to the next level. Not only does it build muscle, it also eliminates fat at the same time. Using High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy (HIFEM) to contract muscles about 20,000 times during a 30 minute session, EMSCULPT has been clinically shown to reduce fat on average of about 19%, while increasing the thickness of muscle by 16% after 4 sessions.

Emsculpt NEO Has enhanced results compared to Emsculpt Classic.

what are the health benefits of emsculpt?

• Improved core strength

• Improved posture

• Improved low back pain

• Can be used for rehabilitation after injury or surgery

• Improved diastasis (abdominal wall muscle separation) which commonly happens after pregnancy.

what areas can be treated with emsculpt?

• Abdomen

• Arm (Biceps and Triceps)

• Thighs (Hamstrings and Quadriceps)

• Legs (Calves)

• Buttocks

what is emsculpt treatment like?

EMSCULPT feels like intense muscle contractions. Your provider can titrate the intensity of the muscle contractions based on individual needs and comfort levels. The HIFEM contractions are equivalent to doing 20,000 sit-ups in 30 minutes. You might have mild muscle soreness after EMSCULPT, but most people do not. This is because EMSCULPT alternates between intense contractions and tapping which helps to release lactic acid build up in the muscles caused by the intense contractions.

EMSCULPT is non-invasive, safe, and comfortable. For optimal results, a series of 4 treatments – 2 treatments per week is recommended. We also recommend that you drink 2 liters of water the day before and 1.5 liters of water on the day of treatment to help improve the elimination of dead fat cells through your lymphatic system. Wear loose clothing and avoid clothing with zippers or metal.

Is EMSCULPT right for me?

It is best to schedule a consultation with our doctor or nurse practitioner to determine if you are the right candidate for treatment. EMSCULPT should be avoided if you have metal implants in your spine, pacemaker/defibrillator, implanted medication pumps, copper IUD, or pregnancy.

Is there any downtime with emsculpt?

There is no downtime with EMSCULPT. You can get back to your normal activities right away.

When can I expect to see results with emsculpt?

Clinical studies have shown that results can be seen within a month and can continue to improve for up to 3-6 months. Results remain stable for about a year without change in diet or exercise. It is recommended that you maintain a well-balanced healthy diet and routine exercise regimen.

Emsella For Urinary Incontinence- Prevent The Need For Surgery

EMSELLA is a revolutionary FDA cleared treatment for urinary incontinence for both men and women. EMSELLA strengthens the pelvic floor muscles by using High Intensity Focused Electro Magnetic Energy (HIFEM) to cause muscle contractions like the contractions you perform when doing a Kegel exercise. What makes this treatment effective is the in-depth penetration and stimulation of the entire pelvic floor area. A single session brings you thousands of intense contractions that you would not be able to do on your own. These contractions are extremely helpful when it comes to muscle strengthening. The pelvic floor muscles help support the uterus, bladder, and bowels. Regular exercising of the pelvic floor muscles can improve or prevent urinary leakage.

Urinary Incontinence (leakage of urine) is a common problem that affects over 200 million people worldwide. EMSELLA can prevent the need for surgery, but early treatment is most beneficial. In addition, many people report improved strength of orgasm, improvement of erectile dysfunction and even improvement of stool incontinence. Combination treatment with abdominal muscle strengthening with EMSCULPT NEO can also improve core strength.

BENEFITS OF EMSELLA for urinary incontinence:

• Non-invasive treatment with no recovery time

• Remain fully clothed during treatment

• Restores bladder and pelvic muscle control without time-consuming exercises

• A comfortable procedure that lets you relax during a 28-minute treatment

• 95% of patients report an improved quality of life

• Many men and women report improved strength of orgasm

EMSELLA FOR INTIMATE WELLNESS in women:

EMSELLA causes the entire pelvic floor muscle to contract and relax using HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Magnetic Energy). Stimulating the muscles in the vagina and vaginal canal triggers the production of new fibroblasts and collagen in the area, thereby enhancing sensitivity. This increased sensitivity leads to heightened sexual pleasure, increased strength and duration of orgasm. EMSELLA is a great way to boost your sex drive.

EMSELLA FOR INTIMATE WELLNESS IN MEN:

Men suffering from Erectile Dysfunction can also benefit from the EMSELLA treatment. HIFEM technology strengthens the pelvic floor muscles and has been clinically shown to be particularly beneficial for men after prostate surgery. Key benefits with EMSELLA for men include:

• Improved sensation

• Increased erection duration and quality

• Enhanced climax

EMSELLA FOR BUILDING CORE STRENGTH:

Core strength includes recruitment of the abdominal, gluteal and pelvic floor muscles. EMSELLA can be combined with Emsculpt Classic or Emsculpt NEO of the abdominal and/or gluteal muscles to improve core strength. Discover the Core to Floor Therapy with Emsculpt NEO combined with EMSELLA.

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR EMSELLA?

EMSELLA is a great option for women and men of any age who desire a non-surgical solution for urinary incontinence and improvement in their quality of life. If you answer yes to any of the following questions, you may be a good candidate to receive EMSELLA:

• Do you feel a sudden, urgent need to urinate, followed by accidental leakage?

• Do you leak urine when you cough, laugh, or sneeze?

• Do you get up at night to urinate, or need to urinate frequently during the day?

• Is your quality of life affected by frequent urination or incontinence?

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING EMSELLA TREATMENT?

The treatment is non-invasive, non-surgical, and you remain fully clothed while sitting on the EMSELLA chair. We recommend loosely fitted clothing to help achieve best positioning during the treatment. Avoid wearing clothing that contains metal. When the treatment starts, you will feel tingling and vibrations in your pelvic floor muscles that will then turn into full contractions. This will be comfortable and tolerable. Your provider can adjust the settings according to your comfort level. During this 28-minute treatment session, you can relax, listen to music, read a magazine, or watch TV.

HOW MANY emsella SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

Although you may observe improvement over a single session, 6 sessions are recommended for the initial treatment of urinary incontinence. Those with more severe symptoms of incontinence may need 10 or more sessions for optimal results. The sessions are scheduled twice a week. Results will typically continue to improve over the next several weeks. Scientific research has shown that 95% of treated patients reported significant improvement in their quality of life after EMSELLA treatment.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME with emsella?

There is no downtime associated with EMSELLA. You can return to normal activities right away.

is emsella covered by insurance?

Currently, EMSELLA is not covered by insurance. However, many Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or Federal Flexible Spending accounts (FSA) may cover the EMSELLA treatment. Call to verify if your specific HSA or FSA covers “pelvic floor rehabilitation via electro stimulation.” If it does, you may submit a receipt for reimbursement based on the rules set forth by your plan.

emsella reviews:

Real Self Patient Review: “No More Leaky Bladder. An amazing spa! Dr Kaplan is extremely knowledgeable about treatment options and helped me decide what was right for me. The Emsella chair has been a life changing treatment. After having children and living with a leaky bladder for years. I never imagined it was possible to live without pantiliners every single day for the inevitable leaking. I was wrong. Sitting comfortably in a chair for a 30 minute treatment is all it takes to say bye bye to that leaky bladder.”

Real Self Patient Review: “I reached out to Dr. Kaplan after researching treatments to address a number of health issues I struggled to improve on after having two children: urinary incontinence, diastasis recti, and constant lower back pain. I completed my EMSELLA, EMSCULPT, and EXILIS treatments a few months ago and have experienced significant improvement in all areas. I have also seen a HUGE reduction of my mommy-muffin-top (just an added bonus on top of all the other benefits I've experienced).”
