Botox- A Cure for Excessive Sweating, Sweaty Palms & Underarms?

Posted in Botox at 10:52 am by Barbara

There is nothing more embarrassing than have cold damp hands. Unfortunately, some men do have a problem with sweating and have very little idea what they should do. In fact the majority of men with this disorder are so embarrassed they are reluctant to talk about the problem. Excessive sweating can lead to difficulty in both social and professional life. Having damp unsightly clothes which need to be changed constantly can be a real hassle. Wet hands can make writing and holding things difficult and worst of all, shaking hands is an awful feeling. For some unlucky men, this social disorder may also affect the feet leading to foul smell and development of skin rashes. Read the rest of this entry »

Underarm Laser Hair Removal Video Demo

Posted in Lasers at 8:49 pm by Jeff

Hey guys and gals, it’s Jeff again. Watch me demonstrate a quick underarm laser hair removal on my wife in the Dallas med spa office.
It only takes a few pulses per session for small areas of hair removal using a laser (here’s a little secret: my wife has has a hair-free underarm for over four years). It’s kind of interesting to watch, as well as relieving. If you look at her face she doesn’t even flinch. That’s because there really is no pain since it happens so fast. Hair grows in cycles, so most patients do need at least five or six treatments for the hair removal to be permanent. This is supposed to be done every six weeks until it’s over (basically 36 weeks). However, you can be working on other spots simultaneously.

Common Laser Hair Treatments
Many women get hair removal treatments in common areas such as their bikini line, underarm, face, and back. Men tend to use our laser hair removal service in Dallas for back hair removal, ears, neck under the beard line, and back the of neck. Can you imagine never having to shave your neck hair again? Yeah, that’s pretty cool. I wish I would have gotten mine done before going gray. You see it the laser works off the melanin in your hair (or pigment), so the darker the hair the easier it is to remove using a laser.

CANDELA Mini Gentle Lase Laser

Posted in Lasers at 8:14 pm by Jeff


Hey, it’s Jeff Rader. I thought I would make this short video talking about one of our main lasers we use for laser hair removal in the Dallas office. It’s actually quite different than many other lasers because you can use it on many different skin types with quick results (some lasers do not do as well on lighter complexes or hair). Also, the laser’s heat cools really fast using what they call the Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD). We’ve used the CANDELA Mini Gentle Lase Hair Removal Laser here in our Dallas medical spa office for a few years now.
