Women's Wellness Offerings

Dr. Hamori and Dr. DiEdwardo are pleased to offer patients a complimentary women's wellness consultation resulting in recommendations for a comprehensive, customized approach to female health and happiness. Studies show that a multimodal plan can be an effective way to slow aging and promote a prolonged healthspan.

A holistic approach to creating the best version of you — at every age!

Having grown up with many of their patients, they have become very familiar with women's complaints and desires at different life stages. Their practice has expanded over time to address many ancillary female-specific concerns. More than just breast size, body shape or facial wrinkles, women are seeking treatments that allow them to realize the best versions of themselves — both how they look and how they feel.

Prejuvenation generation

Younger patients up to age 35 can benefit from "prejuvenation" treatments. At this stage, skin care products and preventive anti-aging treatments that are proactive in nature can help you to maintain healthy, youthful skin now rather than correct damage later. Recommended proven products to protect and promote healthy skin may include:

• Tretinoin cream
• Skinceuticals C E Ferulic Serum
• Plated Intense Serum
• Allastin C-Radical Defense Antioxidant Serum

Treatments most beneficial to this age group include:

• The Salt Facial
• Red light therapy
• Fraxel laser skin resurfacing
• BBL photorejuvenation
• Virtue RF (prevent brown and red spots from becoming visible)
• Sofwave to tighten skin
• Acne BBL and customized skin boosters like Ariescence (PDGF-platelet-derived growth factor)
• Rejuvepen microneedling with Ariessence (PDGF) booster to stimulate collagen and maintain skin radiance.

In addition to skin, this age group is most likely to gain body and sexual confidence from labial surgeries due to discomfort or vaginal treatments to address postpartum complaints.

Body after baby: Vaginal delivery can result in aesthetic and functional problems. Early treatment for pelvic floor laxity such as pelvic floor PT or Emsella help return the vaginal strength and improve urinary symptoms. Vaginal tears, labial tears and episiotomy scars can be painful even after the healing period. Surgical procedures such as labiaplasty, perineoplasty and vaginoplasty can help restore normal anatomy. Today, many nonsurgical options are also available to help address these concerns, some of which may be appropriate as early as four to six weeks after childbirth..

• Emsella chair - pelvic floor strengthing after childbirth (with your clothes on!)
• CO2LiftV - restores vaginal pH, improves lubrication and helps restore the pre-pregnancy state of your vagina
• EmpowerRF with O-Shot (PRP injections) - improves vaginal and vulvar health after delivery and when combined with O-Shot improves orgasm.

These and other modalities will be discussed during your consultation for consideration in your personalized women's wellness program in coordination with your needs and priorities.

Approaching the perimenopausal years

For the 35 to 50 age group, hormones begin to shift, and skin is showing accumulated damage. A personalized program for this lifestage can address aging skin, depleted hormones, and vaginal issues to improve overall well being including sexual confidence and satisfaction. 

Hormones: With hormonal changes beginning in the late 30s women notice energy levels, mental clarity and sleep quality declining. Some women are more prone to these symptoms than others. In addition to improving energy levels, mental acuity and sleep, early restoration of normal hormone levels may also decrease the incidence of heart disease, dementia and osteoporosis. One option for discussion is Biote hormone replacement therapy pellets that use a time-released form of estrogen and testosterone, both vital to an optimal healthspan. We test your hormones in the office, and then can tailor a treatment plan that may include Biote pellets, or bioidentical topical patches or creams to deliver estrogen and testosterone.

Skin care: As skin ages, it looses elasticity and hydration, and becomes dull, dry and discolored with cumulative sun damage. A tailored skincare regimen helps slow the aging process and restore luminosity. We will consider antioxidants such as topical Vitamin C (Skinceuticals C E Ferulic Serum, Allastin Vitamin C), tretinoin (a Vitamin A derivative), and  growth factors and exosomes such as ZO growth factor or Plated Intense Serum. We will also review diet and exercise, which play a critical role in skin health.

Procedures to consider include: BBL light therapy and Fraxel Restore , which can improve the appearance of facial and body skin. Performed annually, these treatments have been shown to effectively improve the clarity, feel and elasticity of the skin. Red light therapy alone or in combination with Salt Facial can also help restore skin radiance. These treatments are painless and have no downtime.

To address skin laxity of the face and body we will consider: Morpheus 8 RF microneedling and topical growth factor Ariessence (PDGF). Softwave shrinks saggy jowls and tightens neck skin with the use of superficial ultrasound waves with zero downtime. Ultherapy provides a focused ultrasound to target the deeper layers of the neck and submental area for added tightening. Additionally, CoolPeel CO2 laser resurfacing smooths wrinkles and recovery is enhanced with the use of CO2 Lift carboxytherapy.

Vaginal treatments: Vaginal dryness is caused by the decrease of vaginal wall estrogen. This may result in vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, and/or recurrent urinary tract infections. Intravaginal estrogen in the form of insets or creams is safe for most women. Twice a week regimen helps improve vaginal pH, elasticity and urinary health.

Morpheus8V RF vaginal micro needling restores collagen and vascular supply to the vagina and vulva. Studies show improvements in both sexual function and urinary symptoms. Topical PRP or Ariessence PDGF enhance the result with more rapid recovery. Home CO2Lift carboxy therapy enhances oxygen delivery to the vagina. Monthly applications enhance sexual function and improve vaginal pH (fewer UTIs and yeast infections). It helps to reduce the itching and discomfort of lichen sclerosis a debilitating vulvar disease. Morpheus 8V transvaginal radio frequency in combination with PRP O-Shot can enhance orgasm and overall vaginal health. A series of 3 treatments helps dyspareunia (pain with intercourse).

Ageless aging

Ages 48 to 65-plus. With menopause, women complain of skin and body changes, and many suffer from some form of urinary leakage, vaginal laxity, vaginal dryness — and accept it as just part of aging. But there is help! New minimally invasive treatments exist to relieve these complaints.

Skin care: Impending menopause creates a decrease in estrogen, a decrease in the elasticity of the skin above the elbow and the knees. Medical-grade skin care for these areas include: Plated Body Serum, Environ Body EssentiA Duo, Alastin Reform & Repair Complex.

Morpheus Burst RF microneedling and Ellacor micro-coring treatments can rejuvenate loose skin and improve texture. Adding Ariessence PDGF as a booster treatment helps restore the natural growth factors to the treated skin.

As brown spots of the chest, arms and legs become more unsightly with each year that passes, options include Fraxel Restore to remove the brown spots and stimulates new collagen growth. When combined with Radiesse injections we can tighten the skin of the decollete, neck, arms and legs. Another great option for chest and body discoloration, BBL Hero, which can attack both red spots, small telangiectasias and brown spots with one treatment.

Thinning hair: Healthy hair is best addressed with a healthy diet, biotin supplements and Plated Hair Serum, which can thicken hair with new sprouts visible along the hairline in just a few weeks.

Vaginal health: Emsella is an effective non-surgical treatment for urinary leakage. Simply sit on the chair fully clothed for 20 minutes while gentle electromagnetic pulses stimulate 20,000 kegels! Vaginal topical treatments with Vagifem, Estradiol cream or a ring can help prevent urinary tract infections and relieve any pain with intercourse. Vaginal dryness can be treated with Morpheus 8V with O-Shot treatments to restore the normal vaginal pH and improve the vascular supply to the vagina. CO2LiftV is a soothing treatment mask for the vagina to help restore the oxygen content and reduce any itching in the area.

Body shaping:Changes in body composition are common during and after menopause, including increased weight around the abdomen and torso. During your consultation, Dr. Hamori can discuss body-contouring options that may help create a more balanced and youthful-looking physique. Depending on your goals, options may include breast reduction, breast lift, and liposuction to improve body proportions and contour.
