New Treatments for Wrinkles on the Horizon (Reloxin, PurTox and NT201) It has been over four years since our clinic started performing studies on Botox Competitors such as Reloxin and other treatments for wrinkles. While Reloxin still isn't approved by the FDA, it is getting closer to approval and may be approved by next year. Below is a link to an article I wrote for the journal, Skin and Aging, which covers this area. It has been exciting to be part of these trials and see this product and others go through the process of FDA testing. I will continue to update you on progress in this area. In the meantime, we are offering special prices for Botox and fillers. View Skin and Aging article |

Acne Scar Treatment with Fraxel laser While Fraxel laser and the Palomar 1540 laser were introduced for use in wrinkle treatments, it appears that they may have even more effect on scars from acne. The following pictures are for patients with acne scarring and show tremendous improvement after treatments with these lasers. It is exciting to see that these treatments offer solutions with little or no downtime and are constantly being improved.

Update on LipoDissolve Legislation The Lipodissolve bill introduced into the Nebraska legislature has been put on hold for this session, but is stated to be reintroduced in the next legislative session. During this legislative session problems caused by the use of this procedure were discussed, but the senators wanted more evidence prior to further work on the bill. This reflects what happened in Kansas, which recently passed a bill that bans this procedure. It would be hoped that our work will lead to more patient safety in this arena.

Botox In the News - Concerns in patients with cerebral palsy We have seen several reports of concerns about Botox use in the media. Although I take this very seriously, I wanted to emphasize that these reports do not relate to the type of Botox that we use for cosmetic work. In our cosmetic work, we use very small amounts of Botox and the type of procedure we are doing for wrinkles hasn't ever exhibited the problems indicated in the reports about children with cerebral palsy. Additionally, there are 30 years of data showing Botox to be safe as we use it. I will continue to keep our patients informed of any news related to this issue, but this seems to be quite overblown in the press and not related to the type of procedure done for the majority of Botox users. |
