Hydrafacial MD vs. Microdermabrasion

So we’ve all heard of Microdermabrasion , it has been around for many years. Microdermabrasion is a deep exfoliation for the skin improving texture and tone. Now we’re hearing a lot of buzz about the Hydrafacial. It is a more advanced version sometimes referred to as ‘Wet Microdermabrasion’ treatment. This treatment is a new type of facial that provides deep pore cleansing, exfoliation of dead skin cells, extraction and skin hydration all at once. Unlike regular microdermabrasion, it can be done on all skin types, including very sensitive ones, and does not cause any redness. It’s especially great for rosacea and skin types with broken capillaries.
Hydration is the foundation of healthy, radiant skin. Irritation of the skin has been proven to increase signs of aging. The HydraFacial MD is a hydrating and non-irritating treatment that also decreases inflammation which is another leading cause of skin disorders.
The unique Vortex-Fusion serum delivery system is what sets the HydraFacial MD apart from the Microdermabrasion. The multi-step treatment cleanses, evenly exfoliates and extracts to remove impurities and dead skin cells while at the same time replenishing vital nutrients including Antioxidants, Peptides and Hyaluronic Acid. Thanks to the devices’ superior delivery system, these performing ingredients are able to more effectively help improve environmental damage, reduce fine lines & wrinkles, and plump & firm skin for long-term results you can see and feel instantly. Microdermabrasion simply uses suction to help clean out pores but does not infuse the skin with these beneficial ingredients.
Also unlike the Microdermabrasion the HydraFacial MD can be tailored to safely & effectively address your specific  skin concerns. The targeted problem/solution protocols were developed to help mitigate some of the most universal skin concerns,  but your trained HydraFacial MD professional can always further tailor your treatment to make it most exacting to your unique needs.  Your skin isn’t like everyone else’s and your treatment shouldn’t have to be either.

What to Expect During a HydraFacial MD

 
fb64ada12798edc54325fce6f70c6cbf2
Here at Paragon Plastic Surgery and Med Spa the HydraFacial is ideal for all skin types and targets hyperpigmentation, oily/congested pores, fine lines, and wrinkles. With no down time, it leaves your skin glowing and looking healthier in about 30 minutes. For a standard HydraFacial there are four steps.
Step 1: Cleansing and exfoliation. The hand piece gently glides along the skin using a Vortex-Exfoliation combined with the Activ-4 serum that removes dead skin cells. The key ingredients are glycolic and lactic acid, algae extract that calms  and soothes and yeast extract that firms and smoothes the appearance of fine lines.
Step 2: Acid peel. A mixture of glycolic and salycilic acid delivers the benefits of a peel without the post-peel scaling. It also helps to break up dirt and clogged pores.


Step 3: Extractions. Instead of performing manual extractions, the HydraFacial uses a Vortex-Suction that acts as a vacuum to clean out pores with the help of the Beta-HD serum. This serum uses honey extract that adds a boost of hydration and anti-bacterial benefits, Spirea Ulmaria Flower extract that soothes and calms and salicylic acid gently exfoliates and aids in extractions.
Step 4: Serum application. The Antiox+ serum is now delivered to nourish and protect the skin with Antioxidants like Horse Chestnut Seed, Green Tea and Arnica Flower Extracts. TonePerfect Complex addresses skin tone by reducing melanin production and preventing the appearance of brown spots and discoloration. It also instantly firms and tightens. Hyaluronic Acid helps to plump and deeply hydrate and Earth Mineral Peptides boost collagen and elastin production to help eliminate fine lines. Sunscreen is then applied and you on your way to healthy, radiant skin.
With just one treatment you can visibly see that your skin is more hydrated and youthful.  Monthly treatments are recommended for best results. Let Dr. Mark Bishara and his staff guide you on your journey to healthy skin with the help of the HydraFacial MD.

Be Holiday Season Ready

f3c8696a87b1c0adfec5410143d8c583The holiday season with all its parties, family gatherings, and New Year’s resolutions can be stressful for men and women of all ages because this is typically a special time when they want to look and feel their best despite all the stress frequently associated with holiday events.
Dr. Mark A. Bishara, M.D. P.A. and his staff at The Paragon Plastic Surgery and Medspa can help each individual man or woman look and feel their best for all holiday events coming up.  Dr. Bishara takes the time to cultivate individual relationships with his patients in order to assure that they receive their desired look.  He uses the term “patient” because he says, “I feel the term patient is a more personal and appropriate term because I am working with people in personal ways.”
In his new state-of-the art facility completed in 2014, he offers the full gamut of cosmetic procedures such as robotic hair restoration, breast augmentation, tummy tuck and a variety of laser procedures. The calming music and soothing décor of his new facility create an atmosphere to ease the nerves of any anxious patient.  “Sometimes patients come in extremely nervous, and my goal is to provide a calming, relaxing environment to reduce their anticipated anxiety,” he said.  Additionally, Dr. Bishara takes the time to listen, discuss and explain all treatment options before outlining an appropriate treatment plan.
In his Paragon office in Mansfield, Dr. Mark A. Bishara, M.D. P.A. offers “Wrinkle-Free Wednesday.”  Patients can come in for Botox and Xeomin treatments at discounted rates.  It’s easy to see why this is the most popular and busiest day of the week for Dr. Mark A. Bishara, M.D. P.A. and his staff.  He treats hundreds of patients seeking these non-invasive, preventive procedures from 8am until 8pm.  “We go through enough Botox to remove every single wrinkle from an elephant’s skin,” he grinned, “but my goal is for them to still look like themselves,” he explained.
Also, as an AAAHC certified facility and dual trained surgeon, he can provide acute care as well as cosmetic surgical services.  His goal is to make sure that every patient’s needs are satisfactorily and effectively met.  In the spirit of giving this holiday season, Dr. Mark A. Bishara, M.D. P.A. plans to open a combined clinic that will offer reduced rates for general surgical procedures including lumpectomy, advanced laparoscopic hernia and gallbladder procedures, and varicose vein ablation.
“The current medical system in this country is not sustainable.  Hospitals and surgery centers charging $11,000 for a 15-minute procedure is simply not feasible when it could be offered at a more reasonable price,” he said.  These large centers are sometimes bound to hold pricing high due their contracted rates with insurance companies.  As a responsible physician, he wants to provide clinical services that promote and foster a medical system that is sustainable and affordable.  That is why he has announced the addition of four advanced laparoscopic surgeons to the staff at the Paragon Surgery Center in Mansfield.  Surgical procedures are now being offered to all patients state-wide for a cash price that is often less than some deductible plans.  Although this system is intended to be cash based, some patients will still be able to submit the charges for reimbursement through their out of network benefits.
As his services continue to grow and expand, Dr. Mark A. Bishara, M.D. P.A. has two other locations for the convenience of his patients; Southlake and North Park.
As the holiday season and the new year approach, let Dr. Bishara and his staff help you look and feel your best.  Call one of his three convenient locations at 817-473-2120 or email [email protected] to make an appointment and ensure that you enjoy the holidays knowing that you truly look your best!
