SmartLipo Comes to Skin Specialists
We are pleased to announce that we are now performing SmartLipo at our clinic (in Omaha, Nebraska). This new technology is very exciting, as it uses a laser in addition to the tumescent method (the safest method of liposuction) to remove unwanted fat. The use of the SmartLipo laser has allowed for more retraction than ever before and very good results on areas ranging from the abdomen to the neck, chest and hips.

When a spider bite isn't a spider bite
As a board certified pediatrician and board certified dermatologist as well, I often see patients who have been diagnosed with 'spider bites' but, in reality, have other conditions.

We see many cases where children (and adults) have herpes simplex, cellulitis, impetigo, eczema or viral illnesses that are confused with spider bites, sometimes with bad consequences. The problem is that these conditions are all treated differently and need to be approached in a very different manner. The most important thing is to seek appropriate care (usually a dermatologist) if this type of concern is being considered and treat aggressively in the case of spider bites, all the while making sure that the condition isn't just something that mimics spider bites.

If it is indeed a spider bite (and especially a brown recluse spider bite), treatment needs to be started very quickly to avoid serious scarring and a dermatology visit is important! So if something looks like a spider bite, the take home message is to seek care quickly and come to a dermatologist.

Psoriasis studies
Skin Specialists has begun recruitment for two new psoriasis studies, both of which will involve an injectable medication. One of the studies is for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis. In order to qualify, you must have at least 10% body surface area affected. This is a 52-week study, and will require you to be seen in the office approximately 18 times.

The second study is for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis with involvement of the scalp. The scalp must be 30% affected in order to qualify for this study. The study will last 7 months and require 9 visits to the office. If you are interested in learning more about these studies, please contact Rhonda or Nicole at 402-697-6599.

If you are interested in pre-registering for either of these studies, please go to www.LovelySkin.com/study.
     
Eczema (atopic dermatitis) observational study
Skin Specialists is conducting a very important observation study to assess the long-term safety of Protopic ointment 0.03% or 0.1% in the treatment of subjects with eczema (atopic dermatitis). The study will last for 10 years; subjects will be required to come to our office each year for assessment of their atopic dermatitis and for a general physical exam. A skin check will be performed once every two years and there will be two interviews, either by phone or by a mailed questionnaire.

In order to qualify, you/your child must have been exposed to Protopic by the age of 16. You/your child must have used the Protopic to treat the eczema (atopic dermatitis) for 6 weeks, either continuously or intermittently.

Subjects will receive a $10.00 gift card after each subject interview.

If you are interested in pre-registering for this study, please go to www.LovelySkin.com/study.
     
Acne studies
Dr. Schlessinger is currently screening for two acne studies; one testing a topical medication and one testing an oral medication for patients with more severe acne. Patients must be at least 12 years of age to qualify for all two studies. If you are interested in learning more about these studies, please contact Nicole or Rhonda at 402-697-6599.

Obagi and Wrinkle study
Skin Specialists will soon be conducting a study to determine the benefits of using the Obagi skin care line versus another skin care line along with Botox. While the skin care line use will be reimbursed, the Botox treatment will not be a covered expense for this study. You must be between the ages of 30-65 to qualify and be willing to come in for 5 visits during the 16 week study. There will be compensation for your participation. If you are interested in learning more about this study, please contact Rhonda or Nicole at 402-697-6599.
