Dr. John Burroughs Introduces BodyTite Original
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing with our original BodyTite, I believe I got that in 2017, and I was one of the first providers in Colorado to BodyTite. What body tight is, there’s different handpiece in the black probes, the part that goes under the skin, but it helps tighten the skin in the subdermal area with radio frequency so that you can get some gentle lifting and raising of the tissue, such as the neck, the face belly backs of the arms. And that’s why there’s different size handpiece. This original model was a 20 watt, which was fine for the face and neck areas. And then their newer model, the BodyTite, had a 40 watt model, or it is 40 watts, and that’s for larger areas such as the thighs, the belly, large areas that you need to treat with higher power. So just wanted to point this out. This is great. We do these a lot by themselves and we do ’em a lot with other procedures such as a facelift.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces BodyFX Handpiece
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs Springs Aesthetics. I am holding the Body FX handpiece. This is a form of external radio frequency. Inside this area here, a vacuum is created so that when you apply to areas with unwanted fat, such as the belly backs of the arms, the thighs, different areas, it sucks up the skin uptight against this area here. It heats up, and then it does a zap of radiofrequency pulse energy to help destroy some of the fat cells in the area. So this one tightens the skin in addition to working on the fat, and that’s in contradistinction to cold treatments such as the cool therapies that treat areas of fat, but don’t tighten the skin. This type, which uses the radio frequency tightens the skin. So you’ve got to do four to six of these treatments over a few months, and then you’ll have some nice contouring improvements, making you ready for the summer.
Lip Dissolving at Springs Aesthetics
Okay, so come with me to get my botched lip filler dissolved. And just a heads up, needles will be shown just in case you’re squeamish. Also, quick disclaimer, Melissa did not do my lips originally. I came to nursing director, Melissa, so that she could fix my lips.
Oh, it’s like, I don’t think the bottom was as bad. It was mostly just the top that was puffy.
I really appreciated how Melissa took the time to listen to all of my concerns, explain the whole process, and just made me feel super comfortable.
A good injector would tell you when to stop. Huh?
Come
Again. The bruising can happen
And as you heard, bruising can happen. So let’s thank Melissa for keeping it real. Nobody freak out. The pain was super minimal. I was expecting way worse, but it was really, really manageable. I ended up having a few good laughs and it was such an enjoyable experience. If you’re thinking about getting your lips ol or anything filler, come check out Melissa at Springs Aesthetics.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Phoenix CO2 Laser
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing with our Phoenix CO2 laser, and this laser is very unique in that it has an FDA approved attachment for treatment to the backs of the hand and even the forearm area. It’s a fractionated CO2 laser, so it works on fine lines, wrinkles, and those age spots that we don’t like as we get older. So it’s very popular and it’s a fantastic way to quickly treat those areas and have smoother looking backs of your hands.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Rohrer Aesthetics Phoenix CO2 Laser
Hey everybody. It’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing with our Rohrer Aesthetics Phoenix CO2. It’s a fractionated laser, which means instead of an entire area being treated at once, you can set the density to have little islands in between each area where the laser goes, so that you heal faster and pigment changes such as hypopigmentation or hyperpigmentation risks are much lower.
This is great. This has been a real workhorse for us. It works on fine all the way up to moderate to sometimes even severe wrinkles. It does give a little bit of skin tightening, and it’s a very powerful adjunct to surgery because when you do a facelift or an eyelid lift, you’re not improving the canvas of the tissues, if you will. This is what improves the appearance of the skin when people look at you. So it’s a fantastic modality and it used regularly.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces InMode Evoke Machine
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing with our in mode Evoke machine. This is a very fascinating technology. It uses topical radio frequency to heat the tissues to a very warm temperature, warming up that it’ll tighten the skin, and you can also set it a little bit higher to even destroy some fat, such as in the double chin area here, or jowls and when you do that, it not only helps reduce those fatty areas there, it can tighten the tissue, which is different from some of the cold therapy treatments that have been on the market. So these are two hand pieces, one for the face, and then this one’s for the chin. And it takes four to six treatments, done a week apart and then a periodic maintenance is done, but no surgery, no downtime. You just sit there for 30 to 45 minutes depending on what your needs are, and you can go to sleep. It’s very comfortable. Or watch television or read emails, whatever you’d like to do.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces InMode Forma Handpiece
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing holding our forma handpiece with the in mode radiofrequency platform. Forma is a form of topical radio frequency that is useful to treat the jowls of the face. You can treat the midface, the forehead, you can treat the neck tissues, and we have a larger handpiece, the form plus for large areas such as the thighs and abdomen. So it’s a great way to get tightening over large areas with no downtime. Takes four to six treatments. It does require some periodic maintenance treatments that aren’t too involved, but it’s not surgery, but it can provide nice results for those who don’t want to have surgery, but have some tuning up before the summer season.
Dr. John Burroughs Infiltration Pump
Hey everybody. It’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing with one of our infiltration pumps, and what it does is it pushes fluid into tissues for areas that you’re going to treat, such as with liposuction or if you’re doing aggressive laser treatments like on the face or aggressive radiofrequency microneedling, like with Morpheus eight.
What this does is it allows us to do more aggressive treatments, but makes it safer because you create a fluid buffer above the nerves, such as the motor nerves that allow you to smile and raise your eyebrows so that you protect them from injury, from the laser or the radiofrequency microneedling.
It also makes it a more tolerable procedure to get done with good results. So we use the filtration pump every day that we’re doing treatments and just thought I’d show it to you.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Inmode New Machine
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics.
I’m standing with our in mode body type machine.
This is a 40 megahertz radio frequency device that has different handpieces that you can attach. This is the body type, this is the smaller face or neck type. You can use it in other areas as well. And then this is a Morpheus tip, so this also does Morpheus eight, which is radio frequency microneedling,
So radio frequency can tighten the skin and with appropriate settings it can also address small amounts of unwanted fats, such as a double chin.
So it’s great to tighten and smooth the skin, work on fine lines and wrinkles and also if you have areas of excess fat, raw fat, chin fat, it can take care of those.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Inmode Old Machine
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing with our in Mode Pro, which was our in mode radiofrequency multi-platform. So it does a lot of treatments. It includes Lum Mecca, intense pulse like treatments. It’s got skin tightening treatments with topical radio frequency, and it also does laser hair removal, and it can help contour the body in a noninvasive manner with the Body FX, which is this device. So it’s been a powerful, popular platform we’ve used for many years here at Springs Aesthetics to provide services to help you look your best without necessarily always needing surgery or to compliment surgery results.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces LightTherapy
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs. I’m at Springs Aesthetics.
Going to briefly talk today about the ROAR Aesthetics Ultralight.
This is a very powerful up to a hundred thousand Lux LED system, and it has three main wavelengths that it treats at.
It has a green wavelength to help reduce circumferential fat.
It has a blue WaveLight that is great if you have an active acne outbreak, if you get that monthly or hormonally and it also has a red light, which is very popular, which helps promote circulation and healing.
We use it a lot on our post laser treatment patients, as they sometimes can have a little bit of prolonged redness depending on their type of skin and how powerful their treatment was and these red light treatments really help reduce it.
Now, this isn’t your buy from Amazon or eBay red light treatment.
This is up to a hundred thousand lux, and it doesn’t hurt at all, but it’s very powerful and it’s quite unique, and it’s been useful to help our patients get better faster.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Lumecca
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m holding the Lumecca Handpiece with our in mode intense pulse light device. What intense pulse light does is a photo facial treatment to the skin, so it can help with redness, either from acne or rosacea, fine blood vessels in the skin. It can also even out sun croms or unevenness from aging and sun pigment that develops in our skin, such as on our equate area and face even in your arms. So this is fantastic. Usually three treatments are needed and the older IPL treatments often needed, up to four to five or even six.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Morpheus 8
Hey, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics.
I’m standing holding our Morpheus eight and piece, and currently it has a 24 pin in there and what that does is radio frequency microneedling, so it is safe on all skin types, whether you have dark skin or fair skin like myself, and it can help tighten skin, improving wrinkles.
And with high settings and deeper depth settings, you can actually treat unwanted fat such as like double chin fat.
So it’s great.
I’ve been doing radiofrequency microneedling for seven or eight years now, and it’s a fantastic modality.
There’s also the larger 40 pin that you can do on a burst mode for like the belly, thighs, buttocks, other areas that are large areas that you need to treat.
And we use the gold pins, which are insulated, so that’s why they can be safe on all skin types.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Pixel8 RF
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. B at Springs Aesthetics.
I’m standing with our ROAR Aesthetics Pixel eight.
This is the handpiece and you attach these little cartridges that have a series of microneedles in them.
This is actually one of the most, if not the most powerful radio frequency microneedling device on the market, and it’s out of four megahertz.
It’s safe on pretty much all skin types from fare to darker skin, and it works on wrinkles and at higher settings and higher depth you can actually treat unwanted excess fat, such as like a double chin up to a certain amount.
If you have a lot of excess fat, you’re going to need fat removal with liposuction or direct lipectomy.
But this is a fantastic modality, very popular because it works and it’s safe with a faster recovery than lasers.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces Zimmer Cryo 6 Cooler Device
Hey everybody, Dr. John Burroughs Springs Aesthetics.
What I’m holding here is our Zimmer cooler,
What this does is it produces a very cold, strong flow of cold air that helps make the skin somewhat numb so that when you’re doing procedures that can be uncomfortable, like a Morpheus eight microneedling, or other treatments such as laser, you can blow cold air over the area, which can make the experience more comfortable.
These work so well, we actually have a couple of ’em for different treatment modalities we use in the office.
And one thing we care about here at Springs Aesthetics is that not only do the treatments work, but are they comfortable to have done.
Dr. John Burroughs Introduces CAREstream Pro-NoxTM Device
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs of Springs Aesthetics.
I’m standing with our CAREstream Pro-NoxTM Device Device.
What this does is it takes out the anxiety and much of the discomfort for procedures you might be getting done, such as laser resurfacing, microneedling with radiofrequency, even Botox or fillers.
If you’re one of those patients that is needle phobic or gets very anxious about getting treatments done, by breathing with the Pro-NoxTM Device you’re getting a 50 50 mixture of nitrous oxide, which is laughing gas and oxygen. And by doing so, you take your anxiety level down and you increase your comfort dramatically.
So a lot of patients that weren’t do things in the past with the Pro-NoxTM, they feel much more comfortable. And the great thing is it wears off in 10 minutes after you stop using it, so you can then drive yourself home.
Safety When Getting Injected
Hey everybody. Today is just a quick tip. When it comes to syringes, when you’re getting filler and or botulinum toxin injections, you want to ensure that it’s a lure lock syringe or a locked on needle. There have been expulsion injuries that have caused actual blindness and people to lose their eyes. We had published a paper of reports on this almost 20 years ago in archives of facial plastic surgery, so get great results, but get ’em safely.
CO2 Laser
Hey everybody, it’s Dr. John Burroughs at Springs Aesthetics. I’m standing in one of our operating rooms next to our CO2 laser, the Phoenix CO2 laser. It’s a fractionated laser so you can adjust from very light treatments to more aggressive, very dense treatments. CO2 laser is amazing to help with a lot of skin concerns our patients have with their skin to include sun damage, age spots, discoloration & texture issues to smooth the skin. It can help tighten some for superficial laxity & help with wrinkles and lines. It can even improve the appearance of the pores. One nice thing about this CO2 laser is it’s so adjustable we can adjust both the power and the density of the treatment. So we can do very light treatments if you only want just a little freshening or to very aggressive if there’s been a lot of wear and tear on the skin, so to speak, from age and health issues and sun exposure. It’s also got an attached hand scanner so it can treat the back of the hand. And because it’s so adjustable, we treat a lot of areas off the face to include the forearms and the neck areas. So I just wanted to say hello from Colorado Springs and this is what we use our CO2 laser for.
