Valentine’s Day is upon us once again! This holiday is a great opportunity to connect with our significant other—and cast off the mid-winter beauty blahs. Even if you don’t have a big date planned, why not get your glow on by starting a series of chemical peels, microdermabrasion treatments or medical facials? This time of year is also ideal for rejuvenating laser treatments that can erase 10 or more years from your face, especially in conjunction with injectables. These gifts of beauty are perfect for treating yourself (or the one you love), and you can’t go wrong with a Washington Institute for Dermatologic Laser Surgery gift certificate. Call today to schedule an appointment, and let us make the gift giving easy!

Spotlight on… Injectables
No one is immune to aging, but the doctors at the Washington Institute for Dermatologic Surgery have a variety of tools at their fingertips to help minimize the visible signs of time. Year after year, injectable treatments are the number-one non-surgical way to restore a youthful appearance, so what are you waiting for?

Did you know there are two types of wrinkles, and different injectable products are used to treat each kind? Dynamic wrinkles are caused by facial expressions such as smiling, frowning and squinting, while static wrinkles are the lines that are visible while the face is at rest. Botox or Dysport are the best options for stopping the lines caused by facial movement, and hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Restylane and Juvéderm are recommended for plumping up static wrinkles. Since most of us have both dynamic and static wrinkles, combination treatment with both types of injectables is a surefire way to turn back the clock. This month, WIDLS is offering a combination special: $100 off for the first 50 patients, so call to schedule your appointment now!
