There are a multitude of treatments available to improve aging and sun damaged skin. The key is to seek treatment with a skilled, experienced physician with specialized knowledge of the skin. In addition, going to a physician with multiple treatment options will also help by opening you up to a wider array of choices.
Here are some questions to consider prior to treatment:
- Are you a board-certified physician?
- Is there a board-certified physician of any kind in the office?
- Do you have the ability to use lasers as well as injectables?
- Are you going to be able to advise me on what topical regiment I should use following treatment? (Sunscreen is a must)
- How much experience do you have at performing this treatment?
- Are there alternative treatments which may be more effective for my skin?
- What's your medical specialty? (Dermatology, Family Medicine, etc.)
- Do you have any references? Before and After photos?
