Anti-Aging

Years of sun exposure leave a lasting imprint on the skin in the form of brown spots, redness, uneven tone, and accelerated aging. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists offer a full spectrum of treatments to correct sun damage and restore a more even, luminous complexion, backed by decades of combined clinical expertise.

Signs of Sun Damage

Sun-damaged skin can present in many ways:

• Hyperpigmentation and age spots (solar lentigines)
• Diffuse redness and broken capillaries
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Premature wrinkling and loss of elasticity
• Precancerous lesions such as actinic keratoses

Treatment Options

Our physicians use a variety of evidence-based treatments to address sun damage across the face, chest, hands, and body:

• IPL photofacial: targets brown and red pigment simultaneously for comprehensive tone correction
• Fractional laser resurfacing: stimulates collagen and improves texture and pigmentation
• Chemical peels: exfoliate and accelerate the turnover of damaged surface cells
• Cryotherapy: for isolated brown spots and keratoses
• Medical-grade skincare: ongoing correction and prevention with prescription-strength actives

Are You a Candidate?

Any patient who has experienced significant sun exposure and is concerned about the resulting changes in their skin is a candidate for treatment. We also recommend annual skin cancer screenings for all of our sun-damaged patients. Schedule a consultation at our Beverly Hills office to develop your treatment plan.

Spider veins and varicose veins are common vascular concerns that affect both appearance and, in some cases, comfort. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists offer advanced, minimally invasive treatments to eliminate these vessels and restore smooth, clear skin on the face and body.

Spider Veins vs. Varicose Veins

Spider veins are small, superficial blood vessels that appear as red, blue, or purple web-like patterns beneath the skin. They are primarily a cosmetic concern. Varicose veins are larger, bulging vessels that most often appear on the legs and can sometimes cause aching, heaviness, or swelling in addition to aesthetic concern.

Treatment Options

Our treatment approach varies depending on the size, location, and nature of the vessels:

• Laser therapy: highly effective for small facial and leg spider veins, using targeted light energy to collapse visible vessels
• Sclerotherapy: a proven injection treatment for spider and small varicose veins of the legs, in which a sclerosing solution is injected directly into the vessel
• Combination therapy: for patients with both spider and varicose veins, a combined approach often produces the most comprehensive results

Are You a Candidate?

Patients bothered by the appearance of spider or varicose veins on the face or body are strong candidates for treatment. A consultation at our Beverly Hills practice will allow our physicians to evaluate your vessels and recommend the most effective and appropriate course of treatment.

Smooth, even skin texture is a cornerstone of a youthful, healthy complexion. Enlarged pores, rough patches, acne scars, and an uneven surface can all diminish the skin’s appearance even when tone and color are otherwise excellent. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists offer a comprehensive range of treatments to refine and transform skin texture.

What Affects Skin Texture?

Uneven skin texture can result from a variety of factors:

• Enlarged or congested pores
• Acne scarring and post-inflammatory changes
• Sun damage and photoaging
• Rough or dry skin from collagen loss
• Keratosis pilaris and other benign skin conditions

Treatment Options

We offer multiple treatment modalities to address skin texture concerns, depending on the underlying cause and the patient’s skin type:

• Laser resurfacing: to stimulate collagen and smooth the skin’s surface
• Chemical peels: to exfoliate and accelerate cell turnover
• Microneedling: to create controlled micro-injuries that trigger collagen remodeling
• Medical-grade skincare: retinoids, acids, and growth factors prescribed to support ongoing improvement

Are You a Candidate?

Virtually any patient concerned about the surface quality of their skin can benefit from a texture-focused treatment plan. Our Beverly Hills physicians will evaluate your skin and design an approach calibrated to your specific concerns and skin type.

Sagging skin and volume loss are two of the most significant changes that occur in the aging face. As structural fat diminishes and collagen declines, the face loses the firmness and fullness that define a youthful appearance. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists address skin laxity and volume loss with a combination of advanced injectable treatments and energy-based technologies.

Understanding the Changes

The aging process affects the face on multiple levels simultaneously:

• Fat pads deflate, causing the face to appear sunken
• Collagen and elastin decline, reducing skin firmness
• Ligaments weaken, allowing tissue to descend
• Bone resorbs, reducing the structural scaffold of the face

Addressing these changes comprehensively, rather than in isolation, is the key to results that look natural and balanced.

Treatment Approach

Our physicians take a volumetric, three-dimensional approach to facial rejuvenation. Treatment options include:

• Biostimulators such as Sculptra and Radiesse to rebuild lost collagen and volume
• Hyaluronic acid fillers to restore specific areas of deflation
• Laser and radiofrequency treatments to tighten and firm skin
• Combination protocols for patients with more advanced laxity

Our physicians have published extensively on the science of facial aging and soft tissue augmentation, and this collective expertise shapes every treatment plan we design.

Patients experiencing sagging, hollowing, or loss of definition are ideal candidates. Our Beverly Hills practice serves patients across a wide range of ages and stages of skin aging. Schedule a consultation to discuss your concerns.

Platysmal bands, the vertical cords that appear along the neck with age, are a subtle but significant contributor to an older-looking neck and lower face. When these underlying muscle bands become prominent, they can disrupt the smooth, graceful contour of the neck. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists treat neck bands non-surgically with precision injections, softening the appearance of the neck without downtime.

What Are Neck Bands?

Neck bands are caused by the platysma muscle, a broad, flat muscle that spans the neck and lower face. With age, the platysma can lose its attachment and pull downward, causing the individual muscle bands to become visible and create a ropelike or cords appearance along the front of the neck.

Botox for Neck Bands

Our physicians served as Principal Investigators in the FDA clinical trials for Botox in the treatment of neck bands, one of the studies supporting its approval for this use. Botox and other neuromodulators are the gold standard for treating platysmal bands without surgery. Small, precise injections relax the platysma, softening the bands and restoring a smoother neck contour. Results typically last three to four months and can be maintained with periodic treatment. For patients seeking longer-lasting improvement, our physicians may recommend combining neuromodulators with a skin-tightening laser treatment.

Are You a Candidate?

Neck band treatment is appropriate for patients who have noticed vertical cords forming along the neck and prefer a non-surgical approach to improvement. A consultation at our Beverly Hills practice will allow our physicians to assess your anatomy and recommend the most effective treatment plan.

The hands are one of the most visible indicators of age, yet they are often overlooked in anti-aging treatment plans. Volume loss, prominent tendons and veins, brown spots, and thinning skin can make the hands look significantly older than the face. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists offer comprehensive hand rejuvenation treatments to restore a youthful, smooth, and radiant appearance.

Signs of Aging Hands

Common signs that patients seek to address include:

• Loss of volume and visible tendons or veins
• Age spots and hyperpigmentation
• Thinning, crepey skin
• Rough texture and dryness

Treatment Options

Our physicians served as Principal Investigators in the FDA clinical trials for Radiesse in the treatment of volume loss in the hands, one of the studies supporting its approval for this use. Treatment options include:

• Radiesse or Sculptra filler injections to restore volume and smooth the dorsum of the hand
• IPL and laser treatments for age spot removal and skin tone correction
• Chemical peels and medical-grade skincare to improve texture and radiance

Many patients combine multiple treatments for comprehensive improvement in a single visit.

Are You a Candidate?

Any patient bothered by the appearance of aging hands is a candidate for rejuvenation. Results are immediate for filler treatments and gradual for laser and peel-based modalities. Our Beverly Hills physicians will design a plan that fits your timeline and goals.

Laser hair removal is one of the most popular and effective cosmetic treatments available, offering patients a long-term solution to unwanted hair across virtually any area of the face or body. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists and clinical team use state-of-the-art laser technology to deliver precise, comfortable, and lasting results.

How Laser Hair Removal Works

Laser hair removal uses focused light energy to target the pigment within the hair follicle, destroying the follicle’s ability to produce new growth without harming the surrounding skin. Because the laser targets pigment, multiple sessions are needed to treat all follicles during their active growth phase.

Areas We Treat

We offer laser hair removal for all areas of the face and body, including:

• Upper lip and chin
• Underarms
• Legs and arms
• Bikini and Brazilian
• Back and chest
• Neck and jawline

What to Expect

Most patients require six to eight sessions spaced four to six weeks apart for optimal results. Treatments are quick and well-tolerated. Some patients experience mild redness or sensitivity for a day or two after each session. Our team will provide full pre and post-treatment guidance to maximize your results.

Are You a Candidate?

Laser hair removal is most effective for patients with a contrast between skin tone and hair color, though advances in laser technology have made it increasingly effective for a broader range of skin and hair types. A consultation at our Beverly Hills practice will determine the best protocol for you.

Broken capillaries and facial veins are among the most common cosmetic concerns we see at Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills. These small, visible blood vessels typically appear on the nose, cheeks, and chin, and while they are harmless, they can be difficult to conceal and frustrating to live with. Our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists offer precise, effective treatments to eliminate facial veins and restore an even, clear complexion.

What Causes Facial Veins?

Facial veins develop when small capillaries near the surface of the skin become dilated and permanently visible. Contributing factors include:

• Chronic sun exposure
• Rosacea
• Genetics and fair skin
• Temperature extremes and wind
• Aging and natural thinning of the skin

Treatment at Our Beverly Hills Practice

We use advanced laser and light-based technologies, including pulsed dye laser and intense pulsed light (IPL), to selectively target and collapse facial blood vessels without damaging surrounding skin. Treatments are quick, performed in-office, and require minimal downtime. Most patients see significant improvement after one to three sessions.

Are You a Candidate?

Patients with visible facial capillaries or spider veins on the face are excellent candidates for treatment. Lighter skin types typically respond most predictably, though our physicians have extensive experience treating a range of skin types. A consultation will determine which technology and protocol is best suited to your skin.

Vertical lines above the upper lip, sometimes called smoker’s lines or lip lines, are among the most aging features of the lower face. They cause lipstick to bleed and can make the mouth area look older than the rest of the face. At Skin Care & Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills, our Board-Certified, Cosmetic Fellowship-Trained Dermatologists offer effective, minimally invasive treatments to smooth these lines and restore a clean, youthful lip border.

What Causes Lip Lines?

Lip lines develop from a combination of:

• Repetitive pursing and puckering movements over years
• Collagen and elastin loss in the perioral skin
• Sun damage and smoking, which accelerate skin aging around the mouth
• Volume loss in the lips and surrounding tissue

Treatment Options

Our physicians served as Principal Investigators in the FDA clinical trials for Juvederm in the treatment of lip lines, one of the studies supporting its approval for this use. Our physicians address lip lines using a combination of approaches depending on the severity and the individual. Options include:

• Neuromodulators: small doses of Botox or Dysport injected into the orbicularis oris muscle relax the repetitive contractions that cause the lines to form
• Hyaluronic acid fillers: products like Juvederm Volbella or Restylane Silk are used to fill and soften existing lines while adding subtle volume
• Laser resurfacing: to improve skin texture and stimulate collagen production in the perioral area

Combination treatments are often the most effective approach for patients with both dynamic and static lip lines.

Are You a Candidate?

Any patient bothered by vertical lip lines or lipstick bleeding is a good candidate for treatment. Results are typically immediate and natural-looking. Schedule a consultation at our Beverly Hills practice to learn more.
