Our Specialists Help Residents of San Mateo Needing Cosmetic Dermatology

Dermatology is a big field. Many dermatologists focus on more “medical” conditions. At Silicon Valley Cosmetic Dermatology, we do not. We focus, instead, on cosmetic issues. Many San Mateo residents find our Foster City office convenient as we are right off the San Mateo bridge, which is great for commuters.

San Mateo is an affluent city and residents there always want to look their best. Unfortunately, as we age, all of us suffer from the aging process and start to get wrinkles, droopy jaws, build-ups of fat under the chin, crow’s feet, and more. In fact, with some people it actually makes them look considerably older than they actually are. So, it is no surprise that many people go to look for a cosmetic dermatologist in San Mateo.

Well, we are not technically in San Mateo, but for all practical purposes we might just as well be. We are your next door neighbors, but most importantly we have a full range of skills to handle any and all problems resulting from the aging process.

The first thing that we do is have our Dr. Canales, who is our director and a highly qualified skin care specialist, examine your skin closely in order to establish the condition of your skin and any issues that we need to consider. If necessary, we can refer you to a more medical skin care clinic, but in most cases, this is not required.

Recommend The Perfect Procedure for Your Skin Care

Dr. Canales can then recommend the perfect procedure for your particular skin condition. This could be one of many different treatments and will be designed to produce the perfect look for you.

It maybe best to use one of the several injectables which we use. The best-known of these is probably Botox, but there are several others such as Juvederm, Radiesse, Dysport, Kybella, Restylane, and more. We will simply use the correct one for you. These are used to plump up the skin and get rid of those wrinkles, crow’s feet, and so on.

When you use us as your cosmetic dermatologist in San Mateo you may be best off with a facial, which covers a family of skin care treatments for the face, including steam, exfoliation, extraction, creams, lotions, facial masks, peels, and massage. We will select whatever is right for your condition.

Then there are a range of different laser treatments that we can use also. For instance, laser skin rejuvenation can be used to remove layers of skin with extreme precision. What happens is that as the skin heals, new skin cells will form giving a smoother, younger, tighter looking surface.

There are many other treatments that we can use as well. Make an appointment to come over to see Dr. Canales as your cosmetic dermatologist in San Mateo and get his expert opinion.
