Testimonials
I had five laser treatments for my facial hair. I was pleased with the results. There was about 80% reduction in hair growth. The treatment was not overly painful and the cool air helped greatly to reduce the discomfort during the procedure. Overall I was happy with the results.

I was very pleased with my results. I have done two Profractional treatments. My skin looks smoother, the variation is pigmentation has resolved. I feel comfortable not wearing any foundation. A number of people who do not know I had the treatment have noticed how wonderful my skin looks. I would highly recommend this procedure.
The discomfort during the procedure was less than I expected. The recovery time was also easier than I anticipated. I am truly amazed at what a difference Profractional treatment makes. The technician phoned after the procedure to follow up and see if I had any questions. I really felt like I was well taken care of.

I am so pleased with my laser treatments, and I wanted you to know. After five visits, I feel that the result has been well worth the cost and small amount of discomfort. You did a very good job of making each visit as comfortable, informative and professional as possible.
Thanks again. Sincerely,
Eleanor
The 6 treatments my Doctor recommended for sun damaged skin, broken capillaries and rosacea are now more than halfway through. The Profractional resurfacing laser and photofacial [IPL] have had some good results, so far. Profractional should reduce my surgery scars and some fine wrinkles, but, so far Im seeing just a little change for the better, more evidence of tightening of skin. Down time is about 4 days. The Cicaplast by La Roche Posay cream helped speed my healing and then the pro derm 5% night cream. Since I was unable to get the same cream form, last month, I used a lotion with 5% and 2% this month, and didnt like it as much, although results where the same.
IPL treatment had only hours downtime for me. It has already given me less rosacea outbreaks, and has shrunk my broken capillaries. Using the same products as above and the marvelous 60 SPF sunblock that Pro Derm anti-wrinkle tinted moisturizer makes, leaves my skin looking wonderful (even without makeup). It really is great applying only one cream that does it all.
During these months of treatment I’ve also been using the Pro Derm mask, TerreusMasque, once a week, with additional good results.
My next couple of treatments are booked and Ill update this letter of recommendation a few months after, to complete my report of results.

Following is my experience with ProFractional Treatment:
I found the treatment virtually painless. The numbing cream applied an hour before procedure is
wonderful and ensures you hardly feel anything. Maura is very conscientious of advising you as she
goes over more sensitive areas and ensuring you are doing fine.
The first time you see your face is a bit of a shock but it looks exactly as advised, an overall face sun-burn. You definitely need two full days of down time and its a great time to do some nesting. I found that on 3rd day you could apply a good sunscreen followed by a mineral-base foundation and go out if necessary. Everyday the redness lessens and by day 4 its practically gone.
A definite must following treatment is the recommended Cicaplast to keep your skin moisturized. I applied it every 1 to 2 hours for the first two days and then as needed till I finished it and found it very healing. I also found as needed in first couple of days, that a cold washcloth placed gently on face was very soothing before the application of the Cicaplast.
Another wonderful – and now added to my must haves in my skin regiment – is the Terreus Masque. After the Fractional treatment before leaving the office, this masque is applied to your face and it cools and soothes it. I used it the second day after treatment, then every 3 to 4 days. It leaves your skin feeling fabulously fresh and smooth. Its like a mini spa treatment!
The changes in your skin are suppose to start and continue for 3 to 4 months following treatment and thus far, I have already seen an improvement in skin texture, color evenness and smoothness. I suffered from a huge brown spot on my left check which has diminished greatly with this treatment whereas nothing else I had tried really helped before.
I definitely recommend the Fractional treatment to anyone seeking some positive changes to aging skin or has skin issues (texture, tone) that have proven stubborn to other procedures.

As someone with mature skin, I feel I have benefitted from the different treatments and products. Both the IPL/Photorejuvenation and Microdermabrasion exceeded my expectations. My skin feels smother, looks clearer and fresher and my brown spots have disappeared.
Combining these two types of treatments work quite well together. However I would recommend using numbing cream prior to the IPL treatment as it improves the experience.
I have also been having Botox treatments and I am very pleased with the results. The furrows between my eyes disappear and I have found it improves my overall attitude.
Products I use include Kinerase eye rescue cream for my eyes and Proderm 60 day cream and SPF in one. The first week of using Kinerase I noticed an appreciable difference. The product counteracts darkened skin under the eyes and it is doing just that!
Overall I am satisfied with treatments and products and would recommend them to any prospective clients.

I thank you for the excellent treatment. My results are very satisfactory, the area treated was my neck for smoothness and my husband is ecstatic from the results and so am I! The Pro-Derm Gentle Cleanser and the AHA 5% Night cream are very good and made my skin very soft and looking younger. I plan to use them in the future.
Thank you again!
Warm Regards,

I consulted Dr. Skotnicki Grant due to facial redness and sensitive skin. After starting the recommended rigorous use of sunscreen, and after a series of six IPL treatments my face is looking much younger and my skin feels and appears much healthier. I have experienced very little discomfort during the IPL treatments, as a result of numbing cream provided and particularly the constant cold air administered during treatment.
As my skin is quite sensitive, Dr. Skotnicki Grant recommended La Roche Posay Toleriane cleansing milk which is a wonderful product. In the same line I also enjoy the Hydrophase UV moisturizer which is a treat for my face.
Thank-you Bay Dermatology Team,
