SAVE $100 OFF at The Seiff Center — Call to set up a free consultation today 302-678-3443.

Understanding Sculptra:

Before we delve into the benefits, let’s unravel what Sculptra is. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works differently. It’s an FDA-approved injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and biodegradable substance. Sculptra doesn’t just add volume; it stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, gradually restoring and rejuvenating your appearance.

The Marvelous Benefits of Sculptra at Seiff Center:

  1. Natural-Looking Results: One of the standout features of Sculptra is its ability to create natural-looking results. As collagen production increases over time, your skin gains a refreshed and youthful appearance without appearing overdone.
  2. Long-Lasting Effects: While some treatments offer short-term improvements, Sculptra provides results that can last up to two years or more. It’s a fantastic option for those seeking enduring beauty.
  3. Versatile Solutions: Sculptra isn’t limited to a specific area. It’s effective for addressing a range of concerns, from filling in deep wrinkles and creases to restoring facial volume and contouring.
  4. Collagen Stimulation: Sculptra’s collagen-stimulating properties do more than just enhance your appearance. They promote skin health and resilience, contributing to a more youthful and radiant complexion.
  5. Gradual Enhancement: Sculptra doesn’t deliver immediate, dramatic changes. Instead, it offers a subtle, gradual enhancement that allows you to age gracefully and confidently.
  6. Minimal Downtime: Sculptra treatments are minimally invasive and require little downtime. You can typically resume your daily activities right after the procedure.
  7. Personalized Approach: At Seiff Center, we understand that every individual is unique. Our Sculptra treatments are tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic goals, ensuring a personalized experience.

Is Sculptra Right for You?

Sculptra may be the perfect solution if you’re looking for a non-surgical way to revitalize your appearance, restore facial volume, and enhance your natural beauty. To determine if Sculptra is the right fit for you, we recommend scheduling a consultation with our expert team at Seiff Center. We’ll discuss your goals, assess your skin, and create a customized treatment plan that aligns with your desires.

  1. Skin Rejuvenation: A hydrafacial is a non-invasive treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin. It can help to rejuvenate your skin, making it look fresher, brighter, and more youthful.
  2. Deep Cleansing: The hydrafacial treatment uses a unique vortex suction technology to remove dirt, oil, and impurities from your pores. It can effectively unclog pores and clean your skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and revitalized.
  3. Hydration Boost: During the hydrafacial, a specially formulated serum is infused into your skin, providing deep hydration. This can be particularly beneficial during the summer months when your skin may be more prone to dryness due to increased sun exposure and heat. Hydrated skin not only looks healthier but also feels smoother and more supple.
  4. Sun Damage Repair: If you’ve experienced sun damage, such as sunspots or uneven skin tone, the hydrafacial can help to address these issues. The treatment includes antioxidant-rich serums that can help to repair and protect your skin from damage caused by UV rays.
  5. Customizable Treatment: The hydrafacial treatment can be tailored to address specific skin concerns and conditions. Whether you have acne-prone skin, fine lines, wrinkles, or hyperpigmentation, the Seiff Center can customize the treatment to meet your individual needs and goals.
  6. Minimal Downtime: One of the advantages of hydrafacial is that it requires minimal downtime. You can typically resume your regular activities immediately after the treatment, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
  7. Expertise and Experience: The Seiff Center in Lewes is known for its experienced skincare professionals who are skilled in performing hydrafacial treatments. They have in-depth knowledge of skincare and can provide personalized recommendations and advice to help you achieve optimal results.

It’s worth noting that specific benefits may vary depending on your skin type, individual needs, and the expertise of the skincare professionals at the Seiff Center. It’s always a good idea to consult with a skincare professional to determine if a hydrafacial is suitable for you and to discuss your expectations and concerns.

Everybody has a different opinion and preference for maintaining beautiful skin. Some people would prefer staying without blemishes while others don’t really mind as much. Regardless of what your views are as far as perfect skin is concerned, many people are embracing the benefits of IPL treatment. IPL is an abbreviation for Intense Pulsed Light and has become a highly sought-after service at our Medispa locations in Lewes and Dover, Delaware.

Most likely, you are wondering what this treatment involves, or what its benefits might be. Of course, during a consultation with our team, you can learn more about IPL treatment, and we can help you determine whether it is your preferred approach to skin rejuvenation.

What is IPL?

IPL therapy or intense pulsed light (photofacial), is a way to improve the color and texture of your skin without surgery. Using light energy, the skin is heated, ridding your skin of the unwanted cells. Unlike lasers, IPL devices emit more than one wavelength of pulsed light, treating a variety of skin conditions at once. IPL has also been known to help with reddening, browning, or splotchy skin.

What does IPL help fix?

  • Acne
  • Rosacea
  • Freckles
  • Birthmarks
  • Stretch marks
  • Scars
  • Large pores
  • Unwanted hair
  • Broken blood vessels
  • Spiders veins
  • Brown spots, also called liver or age spots
  • Erythema (reddening)
  • Dark spots caused by hormonal changes
  • Dull skin
  • Small wrinkles

If you are getting IPL treatment, don’t…

  • Sunbathe or apply a tanning lotion for 4 weeks before
  • Depilation, or chemical exfoliation or collagen injection in the 2 weeks before
  • Spray perfume, makeup, deodorant or any other skin irritant
  • Taking aspirin or another medicine that can make you bleed more
  • Taking any medicine that makes you sensitive to the sun; for example, the antibiotic doxycycline.

IPL is a Non-Invasive Treatment

One of the top benefits of IPL treatment is its mode of delivery. It is neither invasive nor is it surgical. The implication is that you do not need any real recovery time to note a significant difference after undergoing the procedure. After treatment, you can return directly about your day!

A few TIPS from The Seiff Center for getting the most out of your injectable procedure!

DO Educate and Prepare Yourself Before Getting Dermal Fillers

Whether or not you are just starting to think about cosmetic injectables, or you have already made the decision to get dermal fillers, you should prepare yourself before you go in for a consultation or procedure. There is a lot of information on cosmetic dermatology out there and a lot of it is important to consider. If you feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available, our team is here to help.

  • Only get fillers from a qualified and experienced injector. Everyone ages differently and everyone’s face is different. It takes time and training for a person to know the right amount of filler to use and exactly where it should be injected for the best individual results.
  • Research the different types of fillers available so you can have an informed discussion during your consultation.
  • If you have a history of facial cold sores, then needle punctures can increase the chances of an outbreak. Talk to your provider about the risks.
  • Suggest waiting two weeks to getting filler prior to or after Covid Vaccinations.
  • If taking antibiotics — fillers (especially lips) should be avoided until after antibiotics are completed and infection is cleared up.
  • Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not get dermal fillers.
  • People with allergies to ingredients in the fillers should not get them either, so be sure you ask about the ingredients and share concerns with your provider.

DON’T Take Over the Counter Pain Killers Before the Procedure

You should discontinue use of any over-the-counter pain relievers at least a week before you get dermal fillers. Blood-thinning drugs like ibuprofen (Advil & Motrin), aspirin, and Aleve can increase the chances of bleeding, bruising, and complications during and after the injections.

DO Follow Instructions about Skincare and Supplements Prior to the Injections

  • Don’t wax, tweeze, bleach, or use hair removal products on the treatment area for at least two days before the treatment.
  • Do not use topical products for at least two days before the procedure. Treatments to avoid include Retinol, Retin-A, Retinoids, glycolic acid, and anything labeled “anti-aging”

DON’T Drink Alcohol for at Least 48-72 Hours Before the Procedure

Just like over-the-counter pain relievers, alcohol has a blood-thinning effect. This can lead to bruising and inflammation. It’s also a good idea not to drink for a day or so after the procedure to avoid inflammation and possible dehydration.

DO Follow Aftercare Instructions

  • Follow instructions given to you by your injector about ointments, like an Arnica ointment, to take care of the skin and reduce bruising after the appointment.
  • Ask your injector about icing the treatment area off and on throughout the day. Often, it is a recommended part of aftercare, but some treatments are best left without it.
  • Don’t exercise for a few days after you get the injections. You will probably feel fine and able to exercise, but the increase in blood flow and movement can “nudge” the fillers out of place.
  • Don’t touch, massage, or rub the area treated to avoid moving the fillers out of place. Wait at least 24 hours to put any kind of pressure on the affected skin.
  • Don’t expose yourself to direct sunlight for at least 24-48 hours after the injections. The skin will be sensitive and sun exposure, especially if you get a sunburn, can cause damage.
  • Staying hydrated will not only help you feel good overall, but fillers respond better to a hydrated body.

The Seiff Center Team is experienced in both medical and cosmetic dermatology and plastic surgery. If you are looking for a qualified professional to perform a procedure like dermal filler injections, look no further.

Antioxidants are a vital part of any skincare diet and play a key role in the skin health restoration process. “Antioxidants” are a buzzword in the skincare industry and are frequently referenced in conversations and messaging around skin health. However not all patients are familiar with what an antioxidant actually is, what it does and why it is important to include in your skin health regimen. Understanding what antioxidants are is the first step in upgrading your skin defense.

Antioxidants are a group of vitamins and minerals that minimize the process of oxidation, which in basic terms is a chemical reaction that occurs over time in skin. Oxidative stress contributes to the aging process, which manifests as wrinkles, sagging skin, loss of volume and more.

Additionally, as skin ages, its ability to withstand environmental aggressors and to repair damage begins to deteriorate. As internal and external stressors build up in the skin, this can contribute to chronic, low-grade inflammation that can cause premature signs of aging, which impact skin health.

Incorporating antioxidants into your skincare regimen, whether in a preventive or corrective protocol, can maximize skin health results. They offer numerous benefits, from protecting against premature signs of aging to brightening the skin—it is no wonder why they can become the hero of any skincare regimen.

THE EVOLUTION OF DAILY DEFENSE

External aggressors and pollution can damage skin and contribute to the process of “inflammaging.” This can lead to premature signs of aging, such as dullness, dehydration, uneven tone and lines + wrinkles.

One way to keep the effects of inflammaging at bay is to incorporate a daily dose of antioxidants to promote youthful-looking, glowing skin. New Illuminating AOX Serum delivers all-day environmental protection while enhancing skin glow and blurring imperfections. This concentrated daytime serum contains multiple powerhouse exclusive technologies, including

  • New ZPOLY™ complex that minimizes the signs of premature anti-aging while infusing extended hydration + strengthening skin’s barrier
  • time-released antioxidant complex ZOX12® that defends against environmental aggressors
  • soothing and free-radical neutralizing ZO-RRS2®

This concentrated serum is designed to tackle inflammaging at multiple avenues.

For nighttime use, next-generation Daily Power Defense has been elevated with new technologies, like new ZPOLY™ complex, to better support the appearance of youthful, healthy skin. This clinically proven, advanced serum strengthens skin’s protective barrier and guards against environmental stressors.

To get antioxidant protection around the clock, apply Illuminating AOX Serum in the morning and Daily Power Defense at night.

BRIGHTEN SKIN

One of the most well-known antioxidants, vitamin C, helps to brighten the complexion and supports natural collagen production.

10% Vitamin C Self-Activating reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and promotes a more even-toned complexion by reducing surface discoloration. Added antioxidant protection minimizes the effects of environmental aggressors to promote overall skin health.

PROTECT

Antioxidants play a vital role in sun protection. In addition to providing comprehensive protection against UVA, UVB and blue light, all ZO® sunscreens contain the exclusive complex ZOX12® which provides 12 hours of antioxidant protection to minimize free radical skin aging and the harmful effects of infrared-A (IR-A) rays.. Whether looking for chemical or physical sunscreens or to have one to fit your lifestyle, ZO® Sunscreens have your skin health in mind.

For everyday wear, Sunscreen + Primer SPF 30 can be worn under makeup to offer sun protection and blur visible imperfections. For athletes, Daily Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50 is water and perspiration resistant, shielding against light + photodamage while delivering a sheer matte finish.
