Oops—did your New Year’s resolution to hit the gym get put on the back burner? Don’t worry. At Parson Skin Center, we have Emsculpt to help you quickly set a solid foundation for toning and sculpting muscles (or take your current fitness to the next level). Emsculpt does require a series of sessions spaced one month apart, usually 4 – 6 sessions depending on the target site, but if you start right now you’ll definitely...
Combination treatments typically yield the best results, and at Parson Skin Center we love to combine ResurFX with microneedling. ResurFX is the latest non-ablative, fractional laser from Lumenis, designed to help with discoloration, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and more. A non-ablative laser doesn’t “ablate” (ahem, destroy) skin cells. The fractional part means that it’s only targeting a fraction of the skin at a time. In other words, you can get gorgeous results with little...
Recently, a TikTok video went viral when a woman claimed she popped what she thought was a pimple after getting Botox—but it was actually a Botox bubble. Parson Skin Center has Botox as the most popular treatment (of course), which erases lines and wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause them. Botox has been a staple procedure for men and women alike for decades, and there are some common best practices and aftercare tips...
Celebrities are getting more and more candid with their beauty tools and tricks, with Eva Longoria recently highlighting Morpheus8 microneedling as one of her favorite tools for turning back the clock. It’s also one of the most-requested treatments at Parson Skin Center. Morpheus8 is a kind of advanced microneedling that became TikTok famous, and is suitable for the face, neck, and body. According to Longoria, after her son was born she was exercising and eating...
If you have acne—either active acne and/or scarring—laser skin rejuvenation can help you get clear, healthy-looking skin. But with so many lasers on the market, how can you choose the right one? Parson Skin Center is a medical day spa that offers all of the best lasers, and a consultation can help determine which is right for you and your skin. However, Get the Gloss recently featured a list of which lasers to use for...
Two is usually better than one, especially when it comes to cosmetic treatments. For instance, Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center and Parson Skin Center provide two-in-one clinical services, including surgical and non-surgical solutions. Sometimes mixing and matching between the two provide the best results because there are limitations with every procedure. If you’re thinking about cosmetic surgery, whether it's a tummy tuck, breast implants, or facelift, there’s a good chance that the...
You might already know that HydraFacial is the ultimate 3-in-1 treatment that simultaneously exfoliates, extracts, and infuses for baby-smooth skin—it’s why it’s one of the most-requested treatments at Parson Skin Center. But did you know it can also help with acne? According to a recent clinical study published in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 100 percent of participants found that their acne-prone skin was “clearer [and] less inflamed” after a series of HydraFacial...
There are many signs of aging we overlook until it happens to us, including sagging knees. However, skin laxity in this area isn’t inherently a sign of getting older—in fact, it’s also known as “model’s knee” in very slender patients thanks to the phenomenon happening in so many models due strictly to low body fat. For years, the only option for sagging knees seemed to be a knee lift, but New Beauty now recommends Emsculpt...
If you have the lingering signs of acne—hyperpigmentation, light scarring, and shallow pits—you understandably want to get rid of them for good. But which is better, microneedling or a chemical peel? Both are available at Parson Skin Center and we can help match you with the right choice for you during a consultation. However, a recent study published in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology might sway you. Researchers found that microneedling is better...
A small, recent study has been making headlines because it is excellent clickbait—it reports that in a group of 45 volunteers, those who got their COVID booster and routine Botox experienced Botox results that “might be less effective” than normal. Botox is a mainstay of medical day spas like Parson Skin Center, and we want to stress that getting Botox is no reason to not get your COVID booster if that is your preference. However, there...
