Welcome to the Medical Spa at Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas, one of the leading medical spas in the Charleston region. Our advanced non-surgical treatment facility offers the latest in cosmetic enhancement in a warm and relaxing setting. With the help of our experienced medical team, we provide a number of minimally invasive solutions to help you safely achieve your aesthetic goals. Below, you can peruse the wide range of treatment options available at the Medical Spa at Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas to help you maintain glowing skin and a youthful appearance.
Cleanse, exfoliate, and brighten your skin to achieve a healthy and natural glow.
Turn back time on your appearance and eliminate signs of facial aging for a more refreshed look.
Bring your inner youth to the surface by kickstarting collagen production for firmer and tighter-looking skin.
Enjoy the confidence of a smooth, even complexion with a variety of peel and laser skin resurfacing options.
Get rid of exercise-resistant pockets of fat and attain the physique you’ve always desired with our targeted fat reduction treatments.
Sometimes a simple facial or chemical peel can make a powerful difference in the tone and texture of your skin. In other cases, you may seek a more comprehensive form of skin rejuvenation to treat specific conditions, such as uneven pigmentation or sun spots. Depending on the extent of your concerns, we offer relaxing and effective peels for every depth of treatment desired. While the DiamondGlow™ can be ideal in treating oily skin, a rough complexion, and/or fine lines, the Perfect Derma Peel™ may be better suited to improve acne scarring, melasma, and other pigmentation irregularities. Our laser skin resurfacing treatments can also provide a more dramatic improvement in helping you achieve healthier, more radiant skin. Whatever your needs may be, our skincare professionals can help you choose from the different skin rejuvenation options below:
The skin is affected by an array of internal and external forces, including age, genetics, gravity, sun exposure, lifestyle habits, and pollutants. This can lead to volume deficits and the formation of wrinkles, among other signs of facial aging. We offer the most popular injectable and dermal filler treatments to restore fullness to the face and make your youthful facial contours more visible. Products like BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® can smooth frown lines and expression wrinkles, while fillers can plump your features and minimize deep creases.
The injectables available at our practice include:
If you prefer to avoid injectables, our laser therapy treatments can also erase or improve many signs of aging, such as age spots and fine lines.
Pockets of excess fat in areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or other stubborn areas can be difficult or impossible to reduce through diet and exercise alone. For individuals seeking a non-surgical option to refine their physique, Morpheus8™ and TriPollar® Legend Pro offer convenient solutions. Morpheus8™ combines microneedling, radiofrequency energy, and fractional skin resurfacing to tighten skin and reduce fat in targeted areas of the face, neck, or body, while TriPollar® Legend Pro uses radiofrequency technology to simultaneously address localized fat deposits and skin laxity. Both treatments can enhance your contours without surgery or significant downtime.
Our team can work with you to build a skin tightening treatment plan based on your unique goals and concerns. We are proud to offer a number of advanced skin tightening solutions, discussed below.
Microneedling refers to a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that catalyzes the body’s natural wound-healing mechanisms and revives collagen production for younger-looking skin. The process can typically be used on all skin types and is designed to improve the appearance of acne scars, as well as to smooth, tighten, and firm aging skin. We perform microneedling with the assistance of radiofrequency (RF) energy using VoluDerm™, a treatment that can offer more powerful skin tightening results thanks to its dual microneedling plus RF technology.
Morpheus8™is an innovative solution that combines the powerful benefits of microneedling, radiofrequency energy, and fractional skin resurfacing. This can be an optimal treatment for diminishing signs of aging, tightening and lifting loose skin, and reducing fat in certain areas of the face, neck, or body. What makes Morpheus8™ unique is that the device can target up to 8 mm beneath the skin, addressing concerns in the deepest underlying layers of the dermis. Patients can often see remarkable, natural-looking results after their Morpheus8™ skin rejuvenating treatment.
TriPollar® is another method of improving skin laxity with RF technology, only this technique can simultaneously reduce pockets of fat in conjunction with tightening the skin. If you have mild fatty deposits in addition to loose, excess skin, TriPollar® may be able to provide the improvement you seek.
Some individuals may not need radiofrequency energy during their microneedling treatment to achieve their desired results. For these cases, a SkinPen® microneedling session can suffice in achieving optimal skin rejuvenation. The SkinPen® treatment is designed to promote collagen production, help tighten and smooth the skin, improve fine lines and wrinkles, and minimize other signs of aging.
We can also perform non-surgical skin tightening with ellacor® Micro-Coring™, a treatment that can contour the mid-to-lower facial region (similar to facelift surgery). The ellacor® device can be adjusted to meet the patient’s unique needs and create a more youthful-looking facial aesthetic without the need for incisions or excessive downtime.
Laser skin resurfacing can be a highly effective technique to improve many skin conditions and types of sun damage. Tailored to your concerns, laser rejuvenation can remove or improve:
At the Medical Spa at Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas, we utilize the most cutting-edge dermatological lasers available, including the pigmentation-shattering Lumenis® PiQo4 laser, the Lumenis® AcuPulse™ Fractional CO2 laser, TriPollar® Legend Pro, Clear + Brilliant® Touch, and the Lumenis® M22™, which can emit intense pulsed light photorejuvenation. With these sophisticated lasers at our disposal, our medical team can help you decide which treatment is most beneficial for your concerns.
At Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas, we understand that achieving your ideal aesthetic goes hand-in-hand with optimizing your overall wellness. As such, we are proud to offer a comprehensive, personalized weight loss program featuring GLP-1 agonists like tirzepatide, supervised by our expert medical team. With physician-guided, one-on-one care, our program is designed to support each patient’s unique health and aesthetic goals. Tirzepatide, an injectable medication, has been shown to be more effective with fewer side effects than similar medications like semaglutide, making it a promising option for many patients. We will provide you with tailored guidance throughout your weight loss journey.
Nervous about an upcoming treatment? Although most of our minimally invasive services do not cause discomfort or require anesthesia, we understand that some patients may still feel apprehensive about undergoing their skin rejuvenation or laser resurfacing procedure. At our practice, we make it possible to achieve your aesthetic goals comfortably and completely stress-free with the PRO-NOX™ nitrous oxide pain relief system. Similar to how some individuals may ingest “laughing gas” at the dentist’s office, PRO-NOX™ use can alleviate mild to moderate discomfort and anxiety during your aesthetic treatment. Patients simply inhale a combination of oxygen and nitrogen, the effects of which are entirely gone after 5-10 minutes, allowing you to safely drive yourself home.
We understand you have a plethora of choices when it comes to your choice of medical spa. The mission of our Charleston practice is simple: achieve your aesthetic goals using the most effective and comfortable non-surgical treatments possible. Below are just a few reasons why you can expect to receive superior results when you visit the Medical Spa at Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas.
