Dr. Klein's Philosophy on Cosmetic and Anti-Aging Medicine
Prevention and Education
Dr. Klein is your greatest resource to determine what your next steps should be for your personal skin care goals.
Avoid getting misinformation from med spa workers who may mean well, but do not have the education, training and experience to recognize skin cancers, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis and other problems that may be present, and could be treated.
We diagnose a fair number of melanomas and basal cell carcinomas during cosmetic consultation appointments.
Effective Safe Medical Treatments
There are many treatments to consider, it can be overwhelming. A dermatologist has the education and experience to guide you in the right direction, and away from fads or trends that could cause damage to your skin. We don't offer things because they are popular, they have to be beneficial.
Why We Don't Offer Some Treatments?
Dr. Klein makes a decision to offer a procedure based on her perceived value and safety. Radiofrequency treatments are thermal energy, which is bad for the skin and takes a toll on it, resulting in more aging and skin cancer with time and number of treatments done. PLEASE avoid all radiofrequency treatments that plastic surgeons and med spas are offering their patients right now.
Regarding Credit Cards vs. Payment Plans
We don't use hard sales tactics, nor are the aesthetic providers paid a commission on their sales in this office. Keep your priorities straight: food, shelter, health and family must come first. Although cosmetic treatments can be great for self-esteem, they can be hard on the bank account. We now offer ALLE's Cherry for payment plans for those patients that really want a finance plan, in order to receive more services sooner, and pay later.
If you only want Allergan products (Botox, Juvederm, SkinVive, Latisse, SkinMedica) and pay it off within 6 months AND have excellent credit there is 0% interest. However, if you have a good or fair credit score, the APR may be similar to a credit card regarding interest. They offer credit for up to $10,000 if you qualify. Be careful. You can scan the QR code in the office if you want to see what you qualify for. They ask for first and last name, date of birth, social security number, home address and it is possible they may request to verify your income by connecting to your online banking account.
Skin Care Products
The most expensive skin care products are not necessarily the best ones. We love Epionce products, and they are a terrific value. We can also advise you on the sunscreen and hyaluronic acids you should be using. It is important to start using a quality sunscreen regularly early in life.
