Treat Aging Lines and Wrinkles with Dot Therapy
The SmartXide DOT system is an advanced CO2 (carbon dioxide) laser made in Italy by DEKA and has received clearance from the Food & Drug Administration. The CO2 laser is the most common type of laser used for skin resurfacing: thoroughly proven and tested. CO2 lasers of the past covered the entire surface of the skin, resulting in a significant amount of downtime to heal, discomfort for the patient and prolonged redness of the skin. In addition, the old CO2 lasers could not treat non-facial areas like the neck and décolletage easily because skin in these areas did not heal as well as the face.
Deborah Sarnoff, M.D., a board certified, New York-based dermatologist is among the first skincare specialists in the U.S. to use DOT Therapy on her patients. Dr. Sarnoff is a recognized authority on laser skin resurfacing. She is also an Associate Clinical Professor of Dermatology at New York University’s School of Medicine. “DOT Therapy is the new gold standard in laser facial resurfacing,” said Dr. Sarnoff. “The effectiveness of DOT Therapy is unparalleled and what makes DOT Therapy so special is its range of options. My patients are thrilled that we can customize the treatments to meet their exact skin requirements. The results are extraordinary and the downtime is so minimal that my patients can receive a treatment on a Friday and be back to work on Monday looking radiant.”
DOT Therapy is taking laser skin resurfacing to a whole new level. The new procedure precisely delivers CO2 laser energy to targeted areas on the face or non-facial areas like the neck and décolletage, and effectively treats sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, and acne scarring. Unlike any other skin resurfacing CO2 laser, the DOT system is unique because it ablates a customized pattern of tiny, micro-sized dots, rather than the entire skin surface.
After a DOT Therapy procedure, thousands of microscopic perforations stimulate new collagen growth to improve skin’s texture and tone. DOT Therapy leaves the skin around each of the perforations intact, allowing the epidermis to regenerate, resulting in a more youthful appearance. Although the DOT Therapy technology is brand new, the benefits are proven and clear to Dr. Sarnoff and her patients. “Downtime for patients undergoing this procedure is minimal,” said Dr. Sarnoff. “There is no pain or discomfort, redness lasts a few days versus a few weeks, and the results are remarkable - DOT Therapy virtually takes years off the face.”
DOT Therapy’s innovative new technology also allows the physician a greater level of precision and control, enabling doctors to customize the treatment for the patient. “I can specifically target problem areas on the face or non-facial areas like “crepey” neck and hyperpigmentation on the dĂ©colletage,” said Dr. Sarnoff.
Only a topical anesthetic is needed for the treatment and patients can immediately apply makeup after the procedure. In addition, the SmartXide DOT system has no consumables and costs significantly less to buy and operate, saving doctors thousands of dollars annually.

TOMATOES FOR OILY SKIN?
As is almost common knowledge, an oily skin suffers the most from the excessive secretions, leading to variant troubles, ranging from acne to excessive greasiness, even going up to serious skin problems.
Though commercial products and face packs can be useful, yet it is important that you learn to use home remedies on a regular basis for such problems, as they are mild, have no side effects and have slow but sure results. Tomatoes are one such remedy for people with oily skin.
The way to utilize this wonderful natural product is to first cut the tomato into two equal halves. As you do this, make sure you do not squeeze out any of the pulp or juices in the process. Now take the first half and gently rub it all over your face many times, until you feel all the juice has dried up. Once you’ve finished, repeat the same with the other half of the tomato. Once done, keep for a minimum of 10 minutes and wash off. The skin will feel much more refreshed, tightened and will also have a nice glow.

FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR SKIN
Looking good might feel wonderful and classy, but it definitely takes a lot of effort and toil that goes into achieving that well-groomed and healthy look. To be able to work on your skin and overall state of health, you need to have a keenness to look good and devotion towards yourself.
In the rush of our everyday lives, we often tend to keep our health and aspects like skin care on the back seat and make an effort to concentrate on other things in life. What we don’t realize is that skin care is not like wood repair, which will recover with a host of products and sealants. Skin care is a gradual process. The wonderful results it shows only come along over a long period of patience and devotion.
To do this, you need to be literally in love with yourself. You need to be devoted to your own care before anything else. This is the only way that will make you feel rejuvenated and full of zeal for other pursuits of life.
