Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, XEOMIN, Jeaveau)

Most people have heard the word BOTOX®. If asked further about their thoughts regarding BOTOX®, there are so many varying opinions and controversy surrounding the topic. Altaire Clinic wants to help clarify a few of the controversies for you. BOTOX® has been around for more than 20 years.

The Art Of Male Aesthetics

So, what is it that’s driving men’s interest to see their doctors for treatments long considered not to be masculine? At a time of rapid changes within the global workplace, one thing is for sure. It is beneficial to look polished and fresh. We live in a society where physical appearance reflects on one’s competitive edge in the work place. According to the Aesthetic Society for plastic surgery (ASAPS), the number of aesthetic treatments performed on men since 1997 has increased by 325%. I have investigated the five most popular treatments for men: BOTOX®, Dysport™, Jeuveau™, and XEOMIN® (neuromodulators) to [...]

Rosacea

Rosacea, the “Red Plague”… Throughout history, Rosacea has been unfairly characterized as the “Alcoholic Disease” with the characteristic of large, bulbous nose (rhinophyma), and red skin. While alcohol is not causative of Rosacea, it can flair the erythema (flushing) symptoms. Other potential triggers include spicy food, hot food, environmental cold and heat exposures, or anxiety. A lot of public speakers struggle with Rosacea flares when they get in front of a large group and their skin becomes bright red. Rosacea is common to the Midwest due to high numbers of Celtic origin. Most common presentation is vascular redness, telangiectasia [...]

Retin-A… Why the Appeal?

Retin-A (tretinoin) has earned the anti-aging reputation and loyalty of many dermatologists simply because, it works! Unlike most beauty product “lofty claims”, there’s proof at the molecular level of a demonstrable skin health improvement in Retin-A use for more than 25 years. First used as an acne treatment, patients soon reported their skin became vibrant and smooth. Retin-A users reported improvements in skin texture, diminished wrinkles, and brown spots. Early studies in 1988 confirmed its anti-aging effects with statistically significant improvements. Skin cells contain retinoid receptors that help regulate how the cell functions. As people age, their cells behave [...]

Men’s Health – The PRP Male Shot

What is the PRP Male Shot? The PRP Male Shot is designed to increase a man’s sexual performance.

This all-natural procedure uses one’s own blood, without the need for prescription medications or surgery. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) contains many growth factors and healing properties that stimulate stem cells to regenerate tissue and increase blood flow. The body’s growth factors work to increase blood flow to the penis resulting in a stronger, [...]

Pro-Nox

Dermatology and Med Spa Clinics around the United States have been buzzing about this analgesic device that is changing the way providers perform procedures. Nitrous oxide has been around since the 1700s, but more recently, delivery systems have found a market to lower the concentrations for an analgesic effect versus the anesthesia dosing. The Pro-Nox system is a device created by the respiratory company CAREstream America. Why should I use Pro-Nox? Altaire Clinic wants to bring patients the most up to date and greatest procedures available. The use of nitrous for analgesia is brand new to the Upper Midwest [...]
