What is Sclerotherapy Vein Treatment?

What is Sclerotherapy Vein Treatment?

Sclerothearpy | Vein Treatment | Beverly Hills | Los Angeles | Med SpaUnsightly and painful appearance of the spider veins and varicose veins is a common occurrence. Sclerotherapy is a time-tested medspa procedure to treat this condition in a minimally invasive manner. Sclerotherapy involves directly injecting Asclera (polidocanol) Injections into the diseased veins to cause their collapse and gradual removal from the body.
Motykie Medical Spa is a leading facility with expert treatment providers to administer Asclera Injections in a safe and comfortable environment. The medical spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides sclerotherapy vein treatment to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.
 

Candidates

Sclerotherapy medspa procedure is equally effective for women and men who are bothered by the appearance of unsightly spider veins and minor varicose veins in the legs. Women are particularly interested in getting rid of this condition so that they can confidently wear skirts and shorts and avoid the embarrassment of red, blue, or purple veins appearing on the skin surface.
Busy moms and working women who want to achieve freedom from spider veins without the involvement of complicated surgery, and seek a treatment that requires no anesthesia, reduces downtime and minimizes the risk of complications can make golden candidates for sclerotherapy.
 

How does it Work?

Motykie Medical Spa makes use of Asclera Injections, which is a prescription medication with proven effectiveness to treat spider veins. When Asclera is injected directly into the affected vein in a precise manner, it irritates the lining of the blood vessel, causes it to swell, and blocks the flow of blood in the targeted vein.
Clotting occurs in the affected vein, resulting in its collapse. The body’s natural elimination processes absorb the disintegrated vein, revealing smooth and clean skin. Motykie medical spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for sclerotherapy. The Registered Nurses at the med spa are certified in the latest sclerotherapy techniques to deliver optimal results.
 

Key Facts

Asclera is a proven and effective medication, which can be used as a part of sclerotherapy. The following key facts should be noted about Asclera Injections:

  • Asclera is approved for treating both uncomplicated spider veins and uncomplicated varicose veins.
  • Each treatment session may last for about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the extent of problem.
  • Multiple treatment sessions are commonly required to achieve optimal outcomes.
  • The treatment sessions should be scheduled one to two weeks apart for best results.
  • Results with Asclera Injections can be as effective as or superior to laser vein removal treatments.

 

Is it Painful?

The expert staff at Motykie Med Spa is highly trained in administering Asclera Injections in a safe and comfortable manner. Most patients will experience only mild temporary discomfort during the injection itself.
 

Results

Just after one treatment session with Asclera, most patients will be able to notice significant improvement. Multiple treatment sessions with a gap of one to two weeks each will allow the medication to take full effect. Any stubborn veins may be re-treated to achieve a comprehensive and desired outcome.

Where can Restylane be used?

Where Restylane Can Be Used | Dermal Filler | Med Spa | Beverly HillsRestylane family of dermal fillers, including Restylane, Restylane-L (with lidocaine), Restylane Silk, and Perlane, can be used to add fullness and volume to the depleted areas of the face and restore facial youth. Restylane is a proven, FDA approved medspa injectable treatment, which ranks among the most popular non-surgical anti-aging facial procedures today.
Motykie medical spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Restylane to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities. Dr. Motykie will recommend the most appropriate dermal filler from the Restylane family according to the specific aesthetic needs of a patient.
 

Key Areas of Treatment

The Restylane group of medspa anti-aging injectables is designed to instantly add volume to the depleted areas of the face. It will restore youthful facial contours and the results can be seen quickly. Specific areas of the face that reveal moderate to severe wrinkles and folds can be treated effectively with Restylane injections.
The treatment provider will inject Restylane directly into the lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth, commonly known as laugh lines or nasolabial folds, to eliminate them. The area just beneath the nose and above the upper lip and the corners of the mouth can appear rejuvenated with this treatment. Restylane will also treat marionette lines, which are present in the area that extends downward from the corners of the mouth to the jaw line.
Lips are another important area where Restylane is used. Lips are considered a highly sensitive part of the facial skin, and very few dermal fillers can be applied safely and effectively to augment the lips. Restylane, Restylane-L and Restylane Silk are, in fact, the only facial fillers that have received the FDA approval for lip enhancement in patients above the age of 21. These fillers are uniquely formulated to improve fullness and add definition to the lips.
Restylane is equally useful for men who want to give a subtle lift to the face and achieve a more youthful looking face. The Restylane regimen can create a more satisfying wrinkle removal experience for men with moderate to severe facial wrinkles and creases.
 

Sustainability of Results

Results with Restylane and Perlane can last differently in different patients as well as in different areas of the face. Several clinical studies have shown that the results with Restylane can last for up to 18 months when used for the reduction of nasolabial folds or laugh lines with a single follow-up treatment received at 4.5 or nine months.
Results with Perlane can last for up to six months. Motykie medical spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for Restylane fillers.
 

Treatment Volume

To achieve optimal results with Restylane family of products, it is important to apply the correct treatment volume in specific areas of the face. To reduce moderate to severe wrinkles and nasolabial folds, the treatment volume should be restricted to 6.0 ml. In case of lip enhancement, the volume should be limited to 1.5 ml per lip. To reduce lip lines, only Restylane Silk should be used up to a limit of 1.0 ml.

Restylane Lip Enhancement Treatment

Restylane | Lip Enhancement Treatment | Beverly Hills | Medical SpaLips are the most exquisite part of the face from an aesthetic perspective. Aging, environment, and other factors can adversely affect the shape and fullness of the lips. Among non-surgical medspa treatments, only a few may be considered safe and effective in enhancing this sensitive area of the face.
Restylane, Restylane-L and Restylane Silk hold the unique distinction of being the first and only aesthetic products approved by the FDA for lip enhancement in patients above the age of 21. Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Restyalne dermal fillers to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.
 

Unique Features

Restylane family of medspa anti-aging fillers offers some unique features that distinguish it from most other lip enhancement cosmetic treatments:

  • Restylane is specifically formulated to provide fullness and improve definition of the lips
  • Lip augmentation with Restylane is subtle and natural looking
  • Results with just a single treatment of Restylane for lip enhancement can last for up to six months
  • Lip lines can be removed delicately with Restylane Silk
  • The degree of correction in the lips achieved with Restylane exceeds that of other cosmetic products

 

Benefits

Lip enhancement becomes a natural need for many people who suffer loss of lip volume with age, or feel that their shape or proportion of the lips does not adequately match with their unique facial structure. Using makeup has its limitations in hiding such flaws. This is where an experienced medical spa treatment provider may offer Restylane lip enhancement fillers.
Some of the key benefits of Restylane for lip enhancement include:

  • Restylane is a biocompatible, non-animal based product, which avoids any need for allergy tests
  • The delicate and sensitive skin around the lips can sustain the gentle treatment with Restylane
  • Lip enhancement with Restylane can usually be completed in about one hour
  • Lip treatment with Restylane can be customized to help the patient achieve the unique look they may desire
  • Results can be sustained for up to six months with a single treatment

Restylane lip enhancement products should not be used by patients who are less than 22 years of age and by pregnant women. Motykie Medical Spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for Restylane lip enhancement.
 

Procedure

Prior to the treatment, the patient should avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatories or high doses of vitamin E supplements to minimize the risk of bleeding and bruising at the injection site. When the patient is ready for treatment, the provider will first cleanse and prepare the target area for treatment.
As per the pre-determined treatment plan, Restylane, Restylane-L, or Restylane Silk gel will be injected into the targeted areas with the help of ultra-fine needles to achieve the desired effect.
 

Tips for Recovery

The patient should use cold compresses to minimize swelling around the treated area. Sun exposure should be avoided for several weeks or months. Medications may be prescribed by the provider to minimize the risk of facial cold sore recurrence.

SmartGraft Hair Restoration Questions & Answers

SmartGraft | Q&A | FAQS | Hair Restoration | Beverly HillsMany people who suffer from hair loss and hair thinning may not be aware about the SmartGraft medspa procedure and how it works. An experienced provider will educate the patient about all aspects of SmartGraft to help them make an informed decision.
Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides SmartGraft procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles and surrounding communities.
 

How is SmartGraft procedure performed?

The treatment provider will use the fully automated SmartGraft device to gently extract micro hair grafts from the targeted areas. The implantation of these grafts is performed in an efficient, quick, and environmentally controlled manner to achieve thick, natural, permanent hair re-growth. This medspa procedure is performed using local anesthesia.
 

What results can be expected with SmartGraft?

The growth of new hair grafts will occur in sites that are balding or thinning. Fuller, natural looking hair will be restored in transplant sites. The look is completely natural because the patient’s own hair are used.
 

What makes SmartGraft a superior technique to traditional hair restoration procedures?

SmartGraft is superior because:

  • It produces denser, natural looking results in a shorter time.
  • It is equally beneficial for both men and women.
  • It improves the provider’s ability to perform implantation of hair grafts in very precise areas to properly frame the face.
  • Better outcomes can be achieved with the harvesting of grafts from other sites such as the chest, back, and face.

 

Is a buzz cut necessary to receive SmartGraft procedure?

No. If the hair is sufficiently long, the treatment provider will be able to harvest hair grafts by shaving small areas that will get covered by the longer hair.
 

How painful is SmartGraft technique?

SmartGraft technique does not involve any significant pain or discomfort. It is not a complex surgery, but an automated in-office procedure. The provider will use a local anesthetic to keep the patient completely comfortable. The patient may read, listen to music or watch a movie during the procedure.
 

How long and painful will be the recovery?

Healing will occur quickly following SmartGraft, and it will not be painful. The patient can return to work in one to two days. Minimal activity restrictions may be advised during the recovery phase.
 

When will the results start becoming visible?

Newly transplanted hair will grow in a natural manner in multiple phases. New hairs will be noticed in about three months, and progressive improvements are seen over the next several months. Full growth will be attained in about 12 to 14 months.
 

Will the scarring be visible?

No. SmartGraft technique involves removal of grafts in individual micro grafts rather than a major strip involving sutures. Therefore, the scarring is reduced and is not visible. Patients can wear the hair style of their choice.
 

What is the duration of SmartGraft procedure?

The procedure is typically completed in about five to six hours. With SmartGraft, the procedure will take about one-third less time compared to other devices. Motykie medical spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and other nearby areas.

Hair Restoration Options in Beverly Hills

Hair Restoration | Beverly Hills | Medical Spa | Hair Loss TreatmentHair transplant surgery is a successful way to treat hair loss, but many people avoid it because of the invasive nature of this procedure. Several new follicular unit extraction (FUE) techniques have also emerged, but they are largely in developmental stages and not so effective. Now people suffering from hair loss have a highly innovative and advanced med spa treatment option called SmartGraft that does not involve surgery.
Motykie Med Spa is a state of the art facility providing the latest and highly innovative aesthetic and anti-aging procedures such as SmartGraft. The medical spa is led by Dr. Gary Motykie, who is a board certified plastic surgeon. Dr. Motykie applies the same high standards of care adopted in plastic surgery at his medical spa. He provides SmartGraft procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.
 

Advantages

Some of the unique advantages of SmartGraft that distinguish it from other hair restoration techniques are as follows:

  • SmartGraft technique is developed by scientific and medical professionals.
  • The procedure is totally non-surgical.
  • It is an in-office procedure.
  • The recovery period is minimal.
  • Pain and discomfort for most patients is negligible.
  • Natural and thick hair re-growth is achieved.
  • Results are permanent.

High precision is the hallmark of the SmartGraft med spa hair restoration technique. The hair grafts can be extracted, counted and separated in a highly precise and gentle way. Until the time of implantation, the chosen grafts are stored in an environmentally controlled container.
Unlike traditional manual techniques, SmartGraft automates the complete process of sorting, counting, moistening and storing of the hair grafts. As a result, the procedure time can be reduced by about one-third. Faster implantation helps to improve the success rate and enables re-growth of more natural, permanent, thicker hair. Dr. Motykie’s medical spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas.
 

Procedure

As a first step, the treatment provider or their assistant will shave off a small area at the back of the head in a discreet manner, and apply a local anesthetic. The provider will employ the SmartGraft device gently to remove grafts from the donor area. Collection, sorting, counting, and storing of the grafts in a sterile environment will be performed efficiently and properly in an automated manner.
After the grafts have been stored, the provider will prepare the implant site and apply a local anesthetic. Tiny openings in the implant area will be made for placing the grafts. The density of each graft and the skill used in implanting will have a bearing on the final results. The entire procedure is typically completed in about five to six hours on an outpatient basis.
 

Recovery

Following the SmartGraft treatment, the patient may have to rest for a while at the provider’s office under expert observation. The provider will give detailed instructions on how to care for the newly transplanted hair. In about a day or two, most patients will be able to return to their work or resume their normal activities.
