In
addition to clinical and surgical
dermatology, Dr. Kirby also offer a
number of cosmetic services:
COMPLEXION ENRICHMENT:
From a sun-damaged forehead
and dull cheeks to excessive oil and
pigmentary concerns, our goal is to
correct past damage, improve current
problems and prevent future skin
mistakes…in essence, to make you glow!
Dr. Kirby offers a number of skin care
regimens based on the specific needs of
a particular patient.
LIP
AUGMENTATION
As we age the lips thin
greatly. Many wish they had
the same fullness to their
lips that they had in their
20s and 30s. Dr. Kirby uses
a variety of fillers to
create fuller, more luscious
lips including Juvéderm and
Cosmoplast. Typically, these
products offer plumper lips
for at least four to five
months. Slight bruising and
minimal discomfort are some
of the common side effects
associated with lip
augmentation treatments.
BOTOX®
Botox injections are a simple,
safe, and effective way to improve
facial expression lines (frown lines
between the eyebrows, crow's feet at the
corner of the eyes, and forehead
wrinkles). Botox injections are probably
the most common cosmetic dermatological
procedures Dr. Kirby performs. Many of
these signs of aging are easily
correctable with Botox. In most cases with results
usually lasting three to four months.
FACIAL / WRINKLE FILLERS
A wide variety of injectable fillers are
available today, providing a younger and
more youthful appearance. Dr. Kirby can
fill nearly any line, wrinkle, groove,
or hollow appearing spot on the face
including acne scars, nasal labial
folds, and chicken pox scars with
fillers including Restylane, Juvéderm,
and Radiesse.
CHEMICAL/ POWER PEELS
Dr. Kirby uses many different types of
chemical peels to improve skin clarity,
minimize facial wrinkles, and treat acne
scarring. Down time and discomfort
varies greatly depending on which acid
peel is utilized.
FACIAL BLOOD VESSEL
TREATMENT
Vascular lesions, or blood vessels, are
lesions most commonly found on the
facial area, especially on or around the
nose. Effective treatment of these
vessels is performed with IPL and diode
lasers. Most patients say that the
discomfort is minimal with little
downtime.
EAR LOBE REPAIR
Torn earlobes are a common patient
presentation and occur for a variety of
reasons. Repair of a torn earlobe occurs
in Dr. Kirby’s office setting using a
local anesthetic. The procedure consists
of "freshening" the edges of the split
and placement of stitches to complete
the repair and reconstruct the lobes.
The sutures are usually removed in seven
days. Re-piercing can be done by Dr.
Kirby three months after the earlobe
repair.
FRECKLES & AGE SPOT
REMOVAL
Two of the most common patient
complaints are freckles and age spots.
These lesions must be carefully
evaluated to determine if any are
cancerous or pre-malignant. Once it has
been determined that they are benign,
these annoying spots can be easily
removed by excision, chemical peels, or
laser treatment.
LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Even a few years ago it was very
difficult to remove unwanted hair. Technology has improved greatly and now
laser hair removal is an extremely
effective way to remove unwanted hair.
Now, men and women alike will be pleased
with the results made possible by Dr.
Kirby’s laser hair removal technique.

multiple articles on the subject of
tattoo removal. Multiple treatments are
needed to remove a tattoo with at least

ink!

SPIDER & VARICOSE VEIN
REMOVAL
Sclerotherapy is a highly successful
treatment of spider and varicose veins.
Dr Kirby injects a sclerosing solution
into the vein through a very fine
needle. A “flushing” of the vein occurs
and then over a four to six week period
the vein gradually fades away. It is
possible to experience slight bruising
at the sites of the injections. The
number of treatments vary greatly with
the severity of the spider veins. In
most cases, about 75% of treated veins
will respond over a period of three to
four treatments.
