Question: Does low level light therapy help grow hair back? I have seen some good results!
Answer: Dr. Casas’s partner, Dr. Josie Tenore from Turn Back Time medispa has been kind enough to answer this one! According to Dr. Tenore:

That said, the results are less reliable than those we get for hair reduction treatments. The stats on that is that 10% of patients do not respond, even if they are ‘good candidates’, meaning those […]
Dr. Laurie A. Casas is quoted in the MSN article “Staring Down Father Time,” which discusses baby boomers’ desire to “turn back time” in their fast paced lives.

As women, we all understand the value of a safe, reliable, and truly minimally invasive treatment for the structural causes of cellulite. The medical terms for cellulite are adiposis edematosa, status protrusus cutis, and orange peel skin. 98 – 85% of females, regardless of whether they are thin, normal weight, or overweight, develop some degree of cellulite after puberty.

For many patients, it’s about softening their appearance so they blend more naturally into the skin.
Laser stretch mark treatment at Casas Aesthetic Plastic Surgery offers a non-surgical way to do exactly that. Using fractional laser technology, Dr. […]
