- Dr. Rullan's Award-Winning "Phenol Chemabrasion" for Deep Wrinkles and Acne Scars
|
| Dr. Rullan's peel consists of applying a phenol formula, Venner-Kellson, taping it for 24 hours, removing the injured skin layer the next day, abrading the scars and wrinkles, reapplying the solution, and covering the face with a green powder which stays on for 7 days until removed by the patient. Dr. Rullan developed this unique procedure from the Exoderm TM model. His technique combines meticulous abrasion of acne scars and wrinkles, surgical or chemical subcision of thickened scars, and the use of fillers to correct atrophic scars. Patients typically fly or drive to San Diego and stay at local hotels for 5-10 days. A patient can return to work around 10 days after the peel. An editorial of the American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery called this peel the most promising new option to laser resurfacing. It can be done on most skin types without the usual "phenol" associated side-effects like loss of skin color, scarring and cardiac toxicity, because of Dr. Rullan's safer anesthesia guidelines and because the Venner-Kellson is 1/13 th as strong as the other "phenol peel", known as "Baker-Gordon". |
| Mesotherapy is the practice of using microinjections of FDA-approved medications and natural ingredients into the mesoderm (middle layer of skin) to deliver healing or corrective treatment to a specific area of the body. |
| Tumescent liposculpture is a vast improvement over traditional liposuction. In the tumescent method, relatively large volumes of diluted local anesthetic are used to "inflate" the fat before it is suction-aspirated. |
| Blepharoplasty can rejuvenate puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes by removing excess fat, skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. It may be performed for cosmetic reasons or to improve sight by lifting droopy eyelids out of the patient's field of vision. |
| Thermage or ThermaCool TC uses a new type of radio frequency energy to allow the physician to tighten loose or sagging skin, producing a kind of "lift" without an incision. The Thermage process uses a device to activate deeper skin tissue and jumpstart collagen production. |
| Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses light and a light-sensitive dye to treat acne and other skin condition. It is also being tested for the treatment of bacterial infection and skin conditions such as psoriasis and Sun-Damage. |
