Ask Dr. Lupo

Dear Dr. Lupo:
If I get fillers for a cosmetic effect but am not yet aging, will it actually age my skin faster?
-Aimee,
New Orleans
Dear Aimee:
Studies have proven that the cells in the dermis of the skin, the fibroblasts, actually get stretched by the filler and start producing more of your own natural collagen to help enhance a filler procedure. Be careful, however, with filler in the tear trough area. This is the most technically difficult area to inject, so be sure that the "Filler" is fully trained and certified to do the procedure.

| ROSACEA AWARENESS MONTH
Do you suffer from unexplained facial redness, pimple-like bumps or dry, flaky skin? Millions of people are suffering from
Rosacea without knowing it because their symptoms are
often diagnosed as acne, eczema or a rash. As board certified dermatologists, Dr. Lupo and Dr. Holcomb can correctly diagnose Rosacea and help patients understand the common triggers that cause flare-ups as well as ways to treat this common skin condition. Without treatment or with incorrect care,
Rosacea can worsen and leave scarring.
Some common triggers of Rosacea:
- Certain foods including spicy food, cheese, chocolate, beans, citrus fruits and sweets
- Beverages including alcohol, hot chocolate, coffee and tea
- Emotional changes including additional stress and anxiety
- Physical exertion including exercising and lifting
- Temperature changes including hot baths and saunas
- Weather-related changes including cold, sun, winds, and humidity
- Medications including vasodilators and topical steroids such as hydrocortisone
- Certain skin care product ingredients including witch hazel, alcohol, and acetone
The Lupo Center offers a variety of treatments for Rosacea:
- Laser treatments
- Topical therapies with medicated creams and gels
- Retinoid therapies
- Oral antibiotic pills
- Use of gentle cleansers and moisturizers on the skin
