PRP

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a unique hair loss treatment that utilizes the growth factors in your own blood to stimulate new hair growth and prevent further hair loss. Many of us struggle with hair loss today. In fact, according to the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, approximately 56 million adults in the United States are affected by some type of hair loss. Up until recently, few non-surgical treatments were available for hair restoration. However, with a short series of PRP injections, patients can achieve thicker, healthier hair that lasts. Dr. Linda Woodson is an expert in cosmetic dermatology and PRP hair restoration and has been at the forefront of helping patients regrow hair and treat alopecia with PRP injections as well as other oral and topical treatments.

Thread Lift

A thread lift (often referred to as a NOVA Thread Lift, non-surgical facelift, or silhouette facelift) is a facial rejuvenation procedure that can reduce the signs of aging with less downtime and recovery than traditional surgery. There are many factors that can accentuate facial aging, including your genetics, sun exposure, stress, and your environment. The first signs of aging typically appear in the form of wrinkling, fine lines, nasolabial folds, and sagging jowls.

In the past, the only way to restore youthfulness to the face was through traditional facial surgery. While facelift surgery is still an effective way to address facial aging, more and more patients are turning to non-surgical treatments to look younger. The NOVA Thread Lift is a non-surgical facelift that can achieve a more youthful appearance with virtually no downtime – all while maintaining a natural-looking result. Patients do not need to contend with lengthy incisions or visible scarring. With a Thread Lift, it looks as if you have never had a cosmetic procedure.

Sclerotherapy

This is a procedure used to treat blood vessels or blood vessel malformations (vascular malformations) and also those of the lymphatic system. A medicine is injected into the vessels, which makes them shrink; it is also used to treat spider veins.

Keloid Scars

When the healing process is particularly over-reactive, scars can expand far beyond the bounds of the original wound. These raised, lumpy scars are referred to as keloid scars. Unlike hypertrophic scars, they are often dark in color and can be hard to the touch. Individuals with darker skin, individuals with a family history of keloids, and women, in general, are more at risk for forming keloid scars. Without scar treatment, keloid scars will typically continue to grow. Eventually, they may begin to hamper movement or cause irritation.

Earlobe Repair

Considering Torn Earlobe Repair?

When earrings get snagged in clothing, pulled accidentally, or even yanked by a small child, the result can be a torn earlobe. Earlobes can also become stretched over time with the wear and tear of heavy jewelry, or earring holes can become gradually enlarged over time. If you’re not satisfied with the appearance of your earlobes, or you have damage that makes it difficult to wear the jewelry you love, make an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Linda Woodson to find out more about torn earlobe repair.
