Healthy Skin Transforms Life

Cosmetic Dermatology in the silicon valley

 
“Dr. Khosla is the only Dr. I trust to do botox, PRP, or anything else that has to do with my face / hair.   I’m so pleased with my results and the treatments that I’ve had done.   Her and the entire staff is highly qualified and treats you so well the moment you walk in their door.   She gives you the information of what to expect, she’s incredibly knowledgable about what works and what doesn’t.  It’s quick, painless, and it ends up being fun too.   It’s really hard to find someone that is this amazing, and I drive a long way just to see her!!!! Hands down, I HIGHLY recommend her.”

Chemical peels

Chemical peels involve applying a chemical solution that causes a layer of skin to peel off, revealing regenerated skin beneath that is typically smoother. They are used to treat sun-damaged skin and some types of acne. It can also address cosmetic complaints, such as age spots and lines under the eyes.

Cosmetic injections

Wrinkles, scarring, and reduced facial fullness can be temporarily addressed with injections. A dermatologist can inject Botox or fillers such as Hyaluronic Acid during an office visit. Results tend to last for a few months, and maintaining the effects requires regular injections.

Dermabrasion Facials

Dermabrasion facials can help reduce scar tissue, the appearance of fine wrinkles and tattoos, and potentially precancerous areas of skin.  Using a high-speed rotating brush, a dermatologist removes the top layer of skin.  Sometimes a chemical peel is applied after dermabrasion to help treat fine lines, acne, and sun damage.

Hair Removal or Restoration

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light (laser) to remove unwanted hair. At PCD, we have lasers that are safe for all skin types. 

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a treatment used to accelerate healing in various areas of the body. It may help restore hair growth. We typically use this treatment when hair loss results from androgenetic alopecia, a common condition that causes hair follicles to shrink.

Laser surgery

Dermatologists can also use laser surgery to treat a variety of skin issues or cosmetic complaints, including:

  • unwanted hair

  • warts

  • birthmarks

  • scars

  • stretch marks

  • wrinkles

  • vascular lesions

Micro-Needling with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Micro-needling with PRP is a cosmetic treatment that stimulates collagen production by rolling fine needles over the skin while applying platelets, which are one of the components of blood.

PRP is plasma which contains proteins, including growth factors and cytokines. These proteins help skin tissue repair itself.

A blood sample is collected, and then centrifuged to separate PRP from the rest of blood.

We use micro-needling with PRP to treat:

  • acne scars

  • surgical scars

  • wrinkles and fine lines

  • hyperpigmentation

  • sun damage

  • large pores

  • uneven skin texture

Vein procedures

Superficial leg veins are small, dilated surface veins. People sometimes call them “spider veins” and may request their removal.

Sclerotherapy tends to be the spider vein treatment of choice. It involves injecting a special solution into the vein, which irritates the lining, causing the vein to shut, then become less distinct or disappear.

secretrf

SecretRF is a radio frequency(RF) fractional micro-needling system that rebuilds and revitalizes your skin. More specifically, using controlled RF energy, heat is delivered to specific layers of the skin to improve fine lines, wrinkles, and scars from the inside out, leaving the outer layer of skin intact. 

Over the course of weeks, cumulative Secret RF treatments will boost collagen production creating smoother, lifted, clearer skin on the face and body. It can even be used in combination with PRP, Botox, and dermal fillers for an overall anti-aging effect!

Skin Conditions that Secret RF treats:

  • Fine lines

  • Crepey skin on face, neck, chest, body

  • Wrinkles

  • Stretch marks

  • Large pores

  • Uneven skin texture

  • Acne scars

  • Facial/body scars

  • Sun damaged skin

  • Uneven skin tone

Skin Tightening With PellevÉ

Pellevé is a treatment that targets existing signs of aging with advanced radiofrequency technology. This method uses radiofrequency waves to increase collagen production and tighten sagging skin for a more youthful complexion.
