Baltimore Skin Doctor Procedures

The Restylane® and Juvederm® product lines are an injectable gel containing Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic Acid is a polysaccharide which occurs naturally in all living organisms. It plays an important role in giving volume to the skin. Since Hyaluronic Acid is chemically identical in all living organisms, adverse events are very rare and no skin test is needed before treatment.

Restylane®/Juvederm® Therapy

With Restylane®/Juvederm® therapy, Baltimore, Maryland, cosmetic surgeon Dr. Adam Basner can replenish your skin's natural collagen to reduce or remove frown lines, lip lines, crow's feet, worry lines, and deep facial lines. You will notice results immediately.

Restylane®/Juvederm® can also be used to help you achieve fuller, more dramatic lips. The gels are injected into your lips, making them appear plumper. The effects will usually last for 6 months.

Clinical studies performed worldwide indicate that Restylane®/Juvederm® is very safe, effective and long lasting. We expect that this product will quickly become one of the most popular products used by plastic surgeons.

Fat Injections for Lip Enhancement

Baltimore Skin Doctor Adam Basner offers advanced fat grafting lip enhancement. With this procedure, natural tissue is injected onto your lips, giving a natural fuller appearance. As a result, you will enjoy long-lasting and, in some cases, permanent results.

Skin Care Products

We now carry the Topix® and Obagi skin care products that are well known in the field of skin care. These products are only available through a physician, and patients have been very excited about the results obtained.

Good skin care can help prevent skin damage and wrinkling for those patients not ready for a surgical procedure. Skin Care Products are also very effective in enhancing and preserving the results of cosmetic surgery.

Skin Peels

Unlike other procedures, skin peels can be performed on other areas of the body, in addition to your face, to help remove wrinkles, acne scars, freckles, age spots, and dry, blotchy skin. Different solutions are applied to help shed dead skin cells. Newer, fresher skin emerges over the course of several days, revealing a radiant, younger-looking you.

You may feel a warm sensation during the peel and a stinging sensation afterward. Your skin will flake as the skin is shed, lasting from one to several days. Recovery time, redness, discomfort, and swelling varies, depending on the depth of your peel. Dressings and medication may be prescribed. More than one session may be necessary to achieve your desired results.

Dr. Basner offers the latest procedures for skin peels, to help you achieve smoother skin and a more youthful appearance:

Alpha Hydroxy Acid (Glycolic) Peel - Using alpha hydroxy acids derived from plants and fruits, this light-level peel will unclog your pores and remove dead skin cells to reveal softer skin. They can even be performed during your lunch hour. This type of peel will not lighten the skin, and has a quicker recovery time.
TCA Peel - A non toxic chemical, TCA is applied in this medium-level peel to improve your complexion. As this is a deeper peel than the AHA peel, you may experience a longer period of redness and recovery. Results can generally be obtained in one to two sessions. TCA peels will also not lighten skin color.
