Conditions We Treat in Coral Gables & South Miami, FL

As an experienced physician with a passion for non-surgical aesthetic treatments, Dr. Patel is well qualified to deal with many cosmetic conditions including:

• Fine lines and wrinkles: A normal, unavoidable part of aging, fine lines and wrinkles can detract from an otherwise vibrant appearance. Since they can begin to form in your 20s, they can also make you look older than you actually are.
• Cheek volume loss: Many aesthetic concerns are directly related to a loss of cheek volume. In fact, a lack of fullness in the cheeks can visibly age your entire face. For that reason, there are many benefits to restoring lost volume or adding volume that was never present.
• Sun damage: Excess sun exposure is responsible for many signs of early skin aging. Take steps now to restore the health and beauty of your complexion.
• Loose skin: Collagen and elastin, two natural components that form the structure of your skin, fade over time. This means that as you age, loose, sagging skin becomes more of a pronounced issue.
• Double chin: It’s a common misconception that if you have a double chin, you must be overweight. In reality, people of all shapes and sizes can suffer from excess fat below the chin. Also known as submental fat, this is an incredibly common concern that can be treated.
• Poor jawline definition: A strong, sharp jawline has long been regarded as an undeniable sign of beauty. If you don’t have natural definition in this area, there are ways to achieve a more sculpted and elegant appearance.
• Thin lips: Today, full lips are one of the most sought-after features. Whether you’ve always had thin lips or you’re dealing with volume loss, there are safe and effective ways to get a plump pout — without looking overdone.
• Dark circles and under-eye bags: Many people experience discoloration and swelling below the lower eyelids. These concerns can usually be improved through in-office services, simple changes to your diet, and at-home remedies.
• Pigmentation issues: As one of the top concerns that get in the way of even skin tone, pigmentation problems can come in many forms. You may be dealing with dark spots left behind from acne, known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or melasma, a patchy brown discoloration.
• Acne scars: Having acne is frustrating. What’s more frustrating is the scars that can remain long after your pimples and blemishes have faded.
• Aging neck: Your neck is one of the first places to show signs of aging. Even if you spend time taking care of your face, your neck can still betray your age. Neck rejuvenation treatments can help the area below your chin look smoother and more youthful.
• Redness: Persistent skin redness can have several different sources. It is often traced back to other conditions such as acne, rosacea, and spider veins. We can evaluate your situation and provide redness relief through treatments such as topical products and the VBeam laser.
• Post-pregnancy skin laxity: Many women develop skin laxity in their abdominal area after having kids. They may also develop loose skin on their thighs and other areas. If you are one of them, consider an effective skin-tightening treatment at our office.
