There’s only so much one treatment can do (with HydraFacial, it’s three things to be exact!). At Parson Skin Center, we often recommend combining treatments and will work with you to develop a customized skin care regimen that blends in-office treatment with at-home skin care. You’ve probably heard about HydraFacial, the 3-in-1 wet vac treatment that exfoliates, extracts, and infuses skin with medical-grade boosters and serums. It’s already a quickie luxury treatment, taking just 30...

Breast augmentation surgery is the enhancement of breasts via the placement of breast implants. For many years, breast augmentation was the most popular surgery in the country (it was recently overtaken by liposuction, which is also offered at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center). Many people interested in breast implants have concerns over what they can and can’t do post-surgery. While everyone is different, here are a few of the things most people...

It used to be that facelifts were reserved for those with severe lines, wrinkles, and creases, which meant that most patients were 50+. This is no longer true and at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center we’ve seen an influx of younger patients interested in facelifts and mini lifts. While there are still plenty of people seeking out facelifts in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and better, what’s driving younger patients to turn back...

When they say something is too good to be true, it’s not backed by science—Emsculpt is. Available at Parson Skin Center, if you start your initial series now you’ll be seeing serious results just in time for those holiday parties (and getting a head start on warding off winter weight). How and why our muscles “grow” and get stronger is pretty simple. When muscles are exposed to stressors, whether from lifting weights, manual labor, or...

Microneedling was first performed right after the turn of the last century. A lot has changed and progressed since then, and those innovations keep coming. Morpheus8 is often called the latest iteration of microneedling and it’s available at Parson Skin Center. It’s known for being more effective than any other type of microneedling, stimulating collagen in the skin’s adipose tissue. It was designed by Mode Aesthetics, which is a leader in radiofrequency (RF) energy technology....

Breast augmentation, the enhancement of breasts via breast implant placement, has long been one of the most popular procedures for women of any skin tone. It remains one of the most requested surgical procedures at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center. Any type of breast augmentation is going to require an incision, which means scarring. These incision lengths and locations vary person to person with the most common incision being in the crease...

Can sun exposure damage injectables like Botox and fillers? Possibly, according to some experts, which is yet another reason to lather on the sunscreen (and invest in SPF 30+ lip balm). Botox and fillers go together like summer and sun hats at Parson Skin Center, and everyone wants to know how to make their injectables last as long as possible. Some studies have shown that UV rays can break down hyaluronic acid (HA) faster than...

It is quick, easy, pamper-ful, and you and your provider can select from a variety of boosters to finish off your treatment making every appointment one of a kind. Unlike some...

Today’s facelifts, no matter what kind, are worlds apart from what was available even 10 years ago. The “standard” facelift today is called a full facelift, but there are even modifications within...
