Skin Care

We carry medical grade skin care products from SkinMedica, Clinique Medical, and isClinical.

SkinMedica

SkinMedica is a privately held, California based pharmaceutical company that specializes in prescription and cosmeceutical dermatology products. The philosophy of SkinMedica is that "everyone deserves to have naturally radiant skin." That's why they have spent years formulating advanced skin care products that reverse the signs of aging.

The entire SkinMedica product line is scientifically based on the skin's healing abilities.

As we age, elasticity in our skin decreases, lines appear, and our overall appearance is thereby diminished.

To counteract those negative effects, SkinMedica products contain restorative ingredients that work below the skin surface to regenerate health. Essential ingredients like vitamins C and E, retinol and NouriCel-MD® are all contained within SkinMedica's recovery compounds, as well as a patented blend of 'growth factors' like soluble collagen, antioxidants and matrix proteins.

SkinMedica can reduce fine lines, fade skin discolorations, and improve the skin's elastic properties.

Skin Medica Products

• The TNS Recovery Complex® with NouriCel-MD® improves the health and appearance of aging skin.
• SkinMedica's Desonate™ Gel 0.05% is used to treat mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis.
• EpiQuin® Micro (4% hydroquinone) cream is used to treat melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
• VANIQA® (eflornithine hydrochloride) Cream, 13.9%, is the only FDA-approved prescription product for the treatment of unwanted facial hair in women.
• NeoBenz® Micro Cream and NeoBenz® Micro SD are the only benzoyl peroxide prescription products containing a patented formulation of gradual-release benzoyl peroxide for the treatment of acne.

Clinique Medical

Clinique Medical is a collaborative effort between Clinique Laboratories and Allergan Inc., the medical aesthetics company that markets Botox and Latisse. The two companies are pioneering "a new category of best-in-class skin care products."

Since 1968, Clinique, the 1st dermatologist-created cosmetic brand, has been providing effective, high quality products to enhance every skin type and tone. Clinique products are all allergy-tested, scientifically formulated, and fragrance free, making them safe for people of all ages and ethnicities.

At Dr. Heffernan's Seattle office, we are offering the new Clinique Medical '5 product optimizing regimen' which is specifically designed to do the following:

• Prepare patients for non-surgical cosmetic procedures
• Minimize unintended effects following a procedure
• Aid in the healing process

The optimizing regimen is fortified with antioxidants and soothing agents designed to prevent irritation, which avoids discoloration, allowing you to get the most out of your investment in non-invasive cosmetic procedures. Basically, the regimen consists of preparatory, post-procedure, and daily skin maintenance products.

According to Clinique, you should "think of it as an at-home extension of your in-office experience."
