Restylane - Acne Scars

Restylane, a soft tissue filler, can be used to fill in mild acne scarring pockets resulting in a smoother appearance. The Williams Rejuva Center's Cosmetic Nurse Specialists perform this treatment for you. Restylane is an injectable gel containing hyaluronic acid that plumps out these areas. No prior testing is needed because hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the body. Depending on the amount of acne scars to be filled on your face, the procedure could take 45 minutes to an hour. There is a risk of bruising and swelling with any injections. Typically we would like to re-check the area treated with Restylane in one to two weeks. For deeper acne scaring treatments and facial resurfacing, a cosmetic consultation with Dr. Edwin Williams is required to discuss chemical peels, dermabrassion and/or laser correction with a CO2 laser (combine techniques) may be recommended.

My hearts been beating quite rapidly, is this hormonal? Can it be treated with hormone therapy?

February 17th

Since I have been experiencing perimenopause, I have had occasional bouts of rapid heartbeat. It is actually very scary. Is this hormonal and is it anything to be concerned about? Can it be treated with hormone therapy?

Heart racing and being able to notice your heart beating can be associated with menopause. I would check your hormone levels and replace any deficient hormones and see if the symptoms resolve. Additionally, it would be wise to see your primary care physician to have an EKG performed to make sure there are no additional issues to be dealt with but typically mild symptoms are related to menopause.

Are there any hormone related symptoms other than menopause that are frequently treated with bioidentical hormones?

There are many hormone related symptoms that are related to menopause that we do not necessarily think of other than the hot flashes and night sweats. Other symptoms of menopause include mood changes, irritability, anxiety, insomnia, hair thinning, osteopenia or osteoporosis, weight gain, libido changes, difficulty sleeping, mood swings, etc.
