Columbia University Skin and Laser Center offer the latest technologies and therapies for skin rejuvenation and resurfacing while treating you in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Their services are personalized to meet the individual needs of every patient in order to produce the best outcomes – radiant and revitalized skin and appearances.

All of our cosmetic procedures and treatments are performed by board-certified Columbia University dermatologist. Their medical knowledge of the skin and its functions maximizes the benefits of our cosmetic procedures while reducing risks. Through initial consultations, patients are educated about treatment options that will work best with the health of their skin and shape of their face in order to produce a youthful complexion and a rejuvenated appearance.

The Columbia University Skin and Laser Center offers an extensive list of procedures and treatments to suit the needs of our patients. These services include:


BOTOX
Botox Cosmetic is a non-surgical, dermatologist administered treatment that temporarily diminishes frown lines producing a smoother complexion.  Approved by the FDA, Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin that is injected in miniscule amounts into the appropriate muscle to relax and thus diminish or eliminate the dynamic wrinkle line or furrow.  Botox has been used for over ten years and is becoming the most chosen non surgical treatment to reverse signs of aging.  The injections are safe and require no downtime.

Additionally, Botox is also used to treat hyperhidrosis, excessive sweating of armpits and hands

CHEMICAL PEELS
A chemical peel is a chemical solution applied to the skin’s surface to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration of the skin such as sun and age spots and refresh skin texture and color.
At the Skin and Laser Center we use medical strength glycolic acid and Obagi Blue Peel® System. A consultation with one of our dermatologists will decide which chemical peel is right for each patient.

COSMETIC FILLERS
Cosmetic fillers are substances that are injected through small needles into the skin to smooth depressions caused by wrinkles, folds, scars or facial volume loss. Areas amenable to treatment with fillers include lips, wrinkles, folds and fine lines around the mouth and eyes, and depressed scars caused by the likes of acne and chicken pox.
Over the years a variety of filler agents have been successfully designed to create a more youthful appearance.  Each filler is composed of different materials which produce different aesthetic affects and have different durations.  By way of consultation, our dermatologists will detect the best filler option for each patient.
