Published on Jun 6th, 2013 by Michael Kaminer, MD

Thermage has been used for over a decade to tighten skin of the lower face and jaw line, producing a more youthful and natural look. Now scientists have discovered that Thermage can also prevent aging. Based on experience with patients treated every one to two years, we have observed that those patients appear to age more slowly than those who have Thermage only once every 4 to 5 years, or don’t have any treatment at all.

At the annual dermatologic surgery meeting in Atlanta last fall, I presented new data on filler techniques to improve results.

Another area that offers pleasant results using fillers is on the eyebrows, eyelids and under the eyes, as shown in the videos below. These new techniques present a significant advantage: they do not cause an overinflated or artificial look. They also avoid … Continue reading »

Published on Jan 7th, 2013 by Michael Kaminer, MD

Once again, SkinCare Physicians tops the list of dermatology practices with most of its physicians named as Top Doctors by Boston Magazine. Over the past decade, many of our practitioners have appeared regularly in this annual list of top physicians. In the December 2012 issue of Boston Magazine, an astounding eight of our physicians were named as top doctors, seven in the dermatology category (Drs. Kenneth Arndt, Jeffrey Dover, Michael Kaminer, Kay Kane, Thomas Rohrer, Jeffrey Sobell, and Robin Travers) and one in  the ophthalmology section (Dr. Katrinka Heher). This makes three years running that seven of our dermatologists have been … Continue reading »
