🎧 It started as a failed treatment for venous ulcers. It became one of the most influential products in professional skincare.

Mitchel P. Goldman, MD, co-founder of SkinMedica, tells the story of how TNS was created on Skincare Confidential, in conversation with Dr. Ted Lain. A passing comment from Dr. Richard Fitzpatrick about the skin around a wound led to the first growth factor serum, and Dr. Goldman explains why it was a "longevity" product decades before the term existed.

In this episode:

🌟 Why the full mix of growth factors, secretomes, and exosomes may work better than any single ingredient
🌟 How Dr. Goldman rotates growth factor products and lets patients' results guide the choice
🌟 Pre- and post-procedure skincare, and priming fibroblasts with topical rapamycin
🌟 Whether skin longevity takes multi-targeted or single-pathway products
🌟 Why he favors topicals over systemic anti-aging therapies
🌟 Why aesthetic dermatology deserves a bigger place in residency training

👁️ She was ready to book a blepharoplasty. Then she found a way to skip the surgery and scars.

This 62-year-old patient chose instead, our newest signature treatment available only at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology, designed to take 10+ years off the eye area in only ONE treatment, with NO surgery involved.

For her treatment, combined the ablative UltraPulse Alpha CO2 with the Erbium laser to dramatically tighten the hooded skin on her eyelids, lift the heaviness around her upper and lower lids, reduce wrinkles, and improve her overall skin texture.

Treatments this technically challenging around the eyes should only be performed by a highly trained, board-certified dermatologist.

Always do your research and ask to see your doctor’s own before-and-after results.

🦵 Bothered by visible veins on your legs? Here is what one sclerotherapy treatment can do for you!

Douglas C. Wu, MD, PhD performed this treatment, which uses a series of injections of a sclerosing agent directly into the problem veins. It cuts off the blood supply to the feeder vein, and the treated veins fade over the following weeks.

Sclerotherapy is our first choice of treatment for almost all leg veins. Some patients need one session, while others need two or three, and each visit typically takes about 15 minutes. Most patients return to their normal activities right away, and full improvement is typically visible in 6 to 8 weeks.

Cosmetic Laser Dermatology is a true center of excellence for leg veins. Our founder, Mitchel P. Goldman, MD, wrote the textbook on sclerotherapy, and is widely known as the "godfather" of the treatment.

All treatments are performed by our board-certified dermatologists.

📍 Schedule a consultation with Dr. Wu to see if sclerotherapy is right for you.

⚡ Dark circles and laxity
