ACHIEVING HEALTHY SKIN AT ANY AGE
Did you know that the skin is the largest and most visible organ in your body? As skin ages, it becomes thinner and less elastic. Collagen, hyaluronic acids, and elastin (the tissue that keeps the skin firm) become weaker causing thin skin, lines, and wrinkles. Gravity takes over, causing our skin to sag and our fat pads to droop. Brown spots and blood vessels may also become noticeable, giving us uneven skin tone. Fortunately, advances in facial rejuvenation are enabling dermatologic surgeon like Dr. Mann to reverse the appearance of aging and sun-damage. Dr. Mann and her team at Innova Dermatology at Hendersonville are dedicated to help you restore a more youthful look and achieve healthy skin at any age.
FACIAL SKIN REJUVENATION: WHO AND WHY?
More and more men and women are treating themselves to some form of facial skin rejuvenation every year. The reason: your appearance greatly impacts how you feel and how others feel about you. It’s therefore perfectly natural for people to want to stay healthy and look as young as they feel inside. Great strides in surgical techniques and technology now enable dermatologists to achieve subtle, effective aesthetic results. Procedures are typically less invasive, safer and heal more quickly than ever before. Further, these treatments are performed in our office, not the operative room, which translates to added convenience and cost effectiveness.
YOUR SKIN REJUVENATION EXPERT
Dermatologists are trained and experienced in the use of a wide range of surgical and non-surgical methods for treating various skin conditions, including benign growths and skin cancers. As experts on how skin ages, dermatologists are uniquely qualified to employ a variety of both corrective and preventive techniques to keep skin healthy and youthful looking. In fact, dermatologists pioneered many of the treatments used to preserve and maintain the skin.

COMMON APPROACHES TO FACIAL REJUVENATION
A combination of methods may be used to rejuvenate your skin – this depends on your age, health, sun exposure history, and your skin type. Dr. Mann may combine these treatments to give you the best overall outcome.
BOTOX, DYSPORT, and XEOMIN
Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin improve lines and wrinkles by relaxing the muscles associated with facial expression. The actual treatment is well tolerated and takes just a few minutes with no “down time” or prolonged recovery period.
FILLERS
Soft tissue fillers are used to “plump up” wrinkles and fill hollows in the face, giving the skin a smoother and more pleasing appearance. There are numerous filler products available including hyaluronic acids (Restylane®, Juvederm®, Belotero), hydroxyapatite (Radiesse®), and longer acting products such as Sculptra.
CHEMICAL PEELS
Chemical peels and Microlaser Peels treat fine wrinkles, skin discoloration, age spots, as well as dull skin texture. Fresh skin is then regenerated, which is smoother, less wrinkled and more even in color.
LASER TREATMENTS
Laser Treatments can improve fine and deep wrinkles, age spots/sunspots, certain scars, skin discoloration and irregular texture on the face and neck. The range of laser treatments vary in aggressiveness, downtime, number of procedures needed and results.
MICRONEEDLING
Vivace
It’s the newest generation of radio frequency microneedling, and the Vivace is FDA-cleared for your safety. This minimally-invasive treatment stimulates the natural production of collagen and is shown to be effective in alleviating facial wrinkles, fine lines, and tightening and toning the face and neck. The Vivace is the best-in-class radiofrequency microneedling device designed for an incomparable and comfortable patient experience.
