Skin Care

At Batniji Facial Plastic Surgery, we understand that each person’s skin is unique and skin conditions may change daily.  Dr. Batniji and his staff continually evaluate skin care products that protect and enhance results achieved in surgical and/or non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures.  To that end, we have chosen skin care products that are exclusive to physicians and offer proven results.  Ask for a complimentary skin analysis with your consultation to ensure proper prescription for your skin care regimen.

Cleansers

Replenish Hydrating Facial Cleanser by Vivite
This gentle cleanser is ideal for sensitive skin to remove daily residue, makeup, and oil. It is unscented, soap-free, and contains no glycolic compound. Use twice daily.

Vivite Daily Cleanser
Gently removes oil, dirt and make-up. Excellent at preparing skin for application of other products as it contains a blend of hydroxyl acids to gently resurface skin. Also aids in reducing pore size.

Serums/Treatments

Every skin care regimen should incorporate a serum or treatment to be used daily or 2-3 times a week in order to achieve and maintain smooth texture of the skin and reverse skin damage due to environmental free radicals.

IS Clinical Active Serum
This serum ensures controlled exfoliation and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while treating skin that is prone to breakouts.

IS Clincal Super Serum
This potent serum provides all the benefits of vitamin C and features powerful botanicals and peptides to produce results that are natural in appearance.

IS Clinical Hydra Cool
This serum provides penetrating hydration while calming and soothing irritated skin. This serum reduces mild acne symptoms and offers antioxidant protection.

Vivite Vibrance Therapy
A natural, hydroquinone-free product brightens skin and evens tone and texture. This is an excellent option for the treatment of brown spots, hyperpigmenation, and sun-damaged skin.

Vivite Exfoliating Facial Cleanser
This cleanser contains a 15% glycolic compound to gently remove the most superficial layer of skin, thus leaving you with skin that is fresher and newer in appearance.  As this is an exfoliating treatment, it should be used no more than 2-3 times a week.

Elastiderm by Obagi
This powerful eye cream contains a bi-mineral complex which restores skin elasticity and enhances collagen production, thus improving fine lines and wrinkles around the eye.

Moisturizers

Replenish Hydrating Cream by Vivite
This moisturizer is ideal for sensitive skin to restore skin hydration. It contains no glycolic compound. Use once to twice daily.

Vivite Night Renewal
This moisturizer contains a 20% glycolic compound to promote repair and maintenance of skin. This moisturizer is applied nightly.

IS Clinical Youth Complex
This light moisturizer contains mixed fruit acids to stimulate collagen production and enhance the elasticity of skin, thus improving fine lines and wrinkles. This moisturizer is applied daily.

Sun Protection

Colorescience
This mineral powder with SPF 30 provides broad spectrum (UVA, UVB, and infrared) sun protection with zinc oxide and titanium oxide. It comes in an easy to use retractable brush.

Skin Care for Acne

At Batniji Facial Plastic Surgery, we believe in working closely with patients who have active acne in an effort to effectively manage the outbreaks of acne.  This includes a thorough skin care consultation.  Skin care options include the CLENZIderm™ M.D. System, which is the only prescription-strength acne treatment that contains a patented, soluble form of 5% benzoyl peroxide to penetrate deep into the skin and treat acne where it starts.   As well, Dr. Batniji may incorporate a series of laser based treatments using the Isolaz system, steroid injections, and antibiotics (topical or systemic) as needed to gain control of the patient’s active acne.  To view before and after pictures demonstrating results achieved with the use of the CLENZIderm™ M.D. System, please click here.

Obagi NuDerm™ System

For patients with darker complexions (Asian, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern) who are interested in skin resurfacing, Dr. Batniji and his staff incorporate the use of the Obagi NuDerm™ System to prepare the skin for resurfacing, expedite the healing process, and minimize pigmentation changes that may occur in the darker skinned patient following resurfacing of the skin.  The system includes:

  • Gentle Cleanser or Foaming Gel:  A mild gel-based cleanser that gently removes impurities, oil, and makeup to leave skin clean and fresh.
  • Toner:  Adjusts the pH of the skin for increased penetration of the system ingredients.
  • Clear:  A topical prescription-level treatment that includes 4% hydroquinone to minimize hyperpigmentation (dark spots/discoloration) of the skin and improve skin tone.
  • Exfoderm or Exfoderm Forte:  These are both skin exfoliators.  Exfoderm contains a plant acid (3% phytic acid).  Exfoderm Forte contains an alpha hydroxyl acid (6% glycolic acid, 4% lactic acid) and is indicated for skin that would benefit from deeper exfoliation.  Both products act to remove old skin cells while promote new skin cells for a lighter, brighter complexion.
  • Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35:  A sunscreen with 9% micronized zinc oxide and 7.5% octinoxate that help to protect skin from environmental damage.  Sunscreen should be re-applied every 2 hours as needed when outdoors.
  • Blender:  A topical prescription-level treatment that includes 4% hydroquinone to minimize hyperpigmentation (dark spots/discoloration) of the skin and improve skin tone.
  • Tretinoin:  A prescription medication, this product has been scientifically proven to stimulate collagen growth, improve skin texture, and treat acne.

Dr. Batniji and his staff have developed a comprehensive protocol for skin resurfacing procedures that incorporate the use of the Obagi NuDerm™ System.  For a detailed description of how the Obagi NuDerm™ System is used for Dr. Batniji’s skin resurfacing procedures, please click here.
