Whether you are interested in combining any of the following options with plastic surgery or you simply want to enjoy world-class skin treatments in a luxurious spa environment, please contact us today.
Full Service Spa
We are proud to offer our patients a full-service spa, featuring our own in-office clinical aesthetician. The spa provides a relaxing, peaceful environment in which you can achieve healthier skin and a more beautiful complexion without having to undergo surgery. It also provides an ideal setting for our surgical patients to prepare their skin for surgery or to receive soothing post-operative treatment. In this serene, stress-free atmosphere, Plastic Surgeon Dr. Joseph and his staff customize treatment plans that best serve the needs and goals of his individual patients. Such plans may include lymphatic drainage to detoxify the skin and improve the immune system, performed by a licensed massage therapist. We also offer ultrasound treatments to reduce post-operative swelling and a full line of medical skin care products, many available only through a physician. The primary goal of our full service spa is to provide the most relaxing, pleasant experience possible, allowing our patients to escape from the pressures of their daily lives for a few precious hours.
IPL ™ Photorejuvenation
Yet another gentle, non-surgical option for rejuvenating damaged skin, the IPL™ photorejuvenation procedure allows Dr. Joseph to treat the visible signs of rosacea, particularly the redness and flushing associated with the condition. It is also an effective treatment for wrinkles and fine lines. The IPL™ photorejuvenation process involves the use of light energy to stimulate the production of collagen, the protein that gives your skin its elasticity. As with all of the procedures offered at our Orlando area practice, IPL™ photorejuvenation produces exceptional results with minimal discomfort and recovery time.
Laser Hair Removal
This is the popular and effective way of permanently reducing hair growth in any given area of the face or body. The most common areas requested for treatment are the upper lip, chin, side of the face, underarms, bikini line, neck, chest, periareolar, back, abdomen, and legs. When properly performed, laser hair removal is effective for the great majority of patients, permanently reducing hair growth, and eliminating rashes and skin irritations associated with shaving and waxing. Non-responders are usually limited to those with very blonde or red hair; the absolute requirement is that one’s hair must be darker than the surrounding skin. Light skin makes laser hair removal easier to perform – fewer treatments are required, and better, faster results are obtained. People with darker skin can be treated, but results are slower, more sessions are required, and greater expertise is required on the part of the laser operator. Dark hair absorbs more laser energy and is easier to treat. Coarse dark hair responds the best to laser treatment, light hair is more difficult to treat, and very blonde or red hair is very challenging to treat. Blonde or red hair usually contains pheomelanin, which absorbs laser energy less readily than the eumelanin pigment which is present in black or brown hair, so multiple treatment sessions are usually required, and the results are variable.
We understand that laser hair removal treatment programs must be individualized for each patient. We thoughtfully evaluate a patient’s skin type and hair to ensure we treat each patient for optimal results. Although one laser session can produce long-term hair removal, as a rule multiple treatment sessions are necessary to obtain permanent hair reduction. This is due to the fact that laser hair removal is most effective for hair which is in the anagen phase. Anagen is the growth phase of hair. Since hair grows in cycles, not all of the hairs are in anagen at any given time. Additional sessions are necessary to catch all of the hairs when they are in anagen. The good thing is that during this phase, the hair has an abundance of melanin and the hair follicle is easily targeted. Laser hair removal works by sending a beam of laser light to a group of hair follicles with enough power to disable or destroy the root, but not enough power to harm the surrounding skin. The Laser beam finds the hair follicles by targeting the substance that gives skin and hair dark color – melanin. For this reason tanning and laser hair removal are not compatible. Tanning prior to the hair removal procedure will necessitate turning the laser power down, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the treatment.
Skin Resurfacing
If you’re looking for a safe, effective and convenient way to rejuvenate your skin, laser skin resurfacing may be just what you need. This cosmetic procedure revitalizes skin damaged by sun and worn from the inevitability of aging. The costs of cosmetic laser skin resurfacing are minimal compared to many other treatment options.

Fat Transfer
A fat transfer procedure is an effective facial rejuvenation procedure, whether it’s used in conjunction with a facelift or instead of one. A fat transfer re-contours your face, and treats depressed areas, large furrows and volume losses in your lips and cheeks.
Avéli
Avéli is the first and only cellulite procedure that identifies and releases the septa that cause cellulite dimples on the buttocks and thighs with a real time confirmation of release- all in a single in-office visit. Avéli is a minimally invasive procedure performed by a trained provider using local anesthesia and delivers meaningful long term results.

Laser Spot Removal and Hand Rejuvenation
We are pleased to feature some of the most important and innovative breakthroughs in modern surgical technology. This allows us to provide our patients with the most gentle, refined care available. In particular, advancements in laser technology allow Dr. Joseph to treat multiple skin problems with greater precision and efficiency than was possible in the past. It is now possible to painlessly and quickly remove or reduce the appearance of spots, acne scars, blemishes, freckles, stretch marks, and other flaws in the skin without affecting surrounding healthy tissue. Dr. Joseph can also use lasers to rejuvenate the hands, usually one of the first areas of the human body to show (often premature) signs of aging.
