We sling a lot of skincare tips around, but do you ever wonder what is actually on our MDs bathroom counters? And perhaps more importantly, how they are applying it. The order you apply your skincare products matters and impacts the efficacy of what you’re using. We asked Dr. Klein to share her skincare routine with us from start to finish AM and PM.
While Dr. Mraz and Dr. Klein are celebrated artists when it comes to face and body contouring with lasers, needles and everything in between, when it comes to designing and decorating the office itself, they tapped the very talented Dana Ferraro of Molly Patton Design. In the months leading up to our grand opening last summer, Dana worked closely with Dr. Mraz and Dr. Klein to bring their vision of a calm, welcoming, comfortable and modern office environment to life.
It was also important to them to integrate locally sourced touches and so Dana tapped her network of local artists to source some amazing pieces. If you haven’t had a chance to visit the office yet, we hope this sneak peek gives you an idea of what our vibe is all about.
May is skin cancer awareness month, but beyond preaching about the obvious SPF protection, we wanted to take a deep – and serious – dive into the deadliest type of skin cancer, Melanoma. The reality is rates of melanoma are on the rise and have more than doubled since 1982. Right here at Modern Dermatology we diagnose and treat melanomas quite regularly, so we asked Dr. Klein to share more about what’s going on and what we can do.
While we personally believe “pale is the new tan,” we do realize that many people feel better in their bathing suits when they have a little glow, so we asked Dr. Mraz to explain the miracle that is sunless tanner. Thankfully “tan in a can” has come a long way from the first products to the market years ago, which left many early adopters looking more orange than golden!
With the end of “glove season” nearing in (yay!) we wanted to draw some attention to the often times unsung heroes of our bodies, the hands. Our hands are exposed to sunlight, extreme temperature and a lot of wear and tear – and so naturally they are one of the areas on our bodies that show their age first. Thankfully, at Modern Dermatology we have an assortment of therapies that can be used individually, or together, to rejuvenate your hands. We asked Dr. Klein to explain further in this Q&A.
If you’ve been to Modern Dermatology, you’ve likely encountered the smiling face of Tara Roseme. Tara can be found at check-in, check-out, or in our retail area helping patients choose the right skincare products for their needs. Tara recently experienced fantastic results from Dr. Klein’s treatment with PicoSure SmartSkin+, a revolutionary CO2 laser here at Modern Dermatology. We asked Tara to share her experience, and results, and here is what she had to say…
It would be nice if there were a true “fountain of youth,” a perfect cosmetic procedure, a magic cream, or potion drink to maintain skin youth and beauty. Although that one "silver bullet" does not exist today, recent research demonstrates that Nutrition, Topical Skin Care, and Aesthetic Procedures together exert a synergistic, effective remedy. By implementing all three of these skincare categories, optimal skin health and skin beauty are achieved from the outside, as well as from the inside.
