Have you ever had a question for the doctor but just didn’t have the time to schedule an appointment?  Well, here’s your chance to ask without coming in!  On RealSelf.com, Dr. Porter is available for write-in questions.  Ever wonder what the difference between Fraxel® and Thermage® is?  Or how about what exactly a Chemical Peel does to your skin?  Or even how a rhinoplasty is performed?

Log on to RealSelf.com and Dr. Porter can answer any questions you might have.  If your question raises even more  questions, feel free to schedule an appointment so that Dr. Porter can give you a more personalized evaluation of your concerns.

You can also leave comments about any treatments or procedures you had.  You can help people, like yourself, who have questions about Dr. Porter and her treatments by letting us know how everything has turned out (clearer skin, less wrinkles, straighter nose?).  We appreciate your feedback and look forward to hearing from you on RealSelf.com!

Ahh summer!  Sunshine, hot weather and hopefully…a vacation!  Or two!  Even though it’s tempting during lazy summer days, do not neglect your skin!  In fact, we have a fool-proof plan to help you keep up your looks.

            This summer, we’re introducing Bring-A-Friend Thursdays!  From June through August, bring a friend that is new to the practice and you each receive 15% off your treatments or procedures (excluding surgery)!  This includes everything from peels and filler to Fraxel® and Thermage®! 

            Have that friend that has yet to try Botox®?  Bring her in and tell her she needs to prevent those brow wrinkles that squinting in the sun causes!  Is there a friend that is new to the area?  We’ll help her with her laugh lines!

            Remember: June through July on Thursdays, bring a friend that is a new patient, and you each receive 15% off your services!  Have more questions?  Call us at 301.652.8191. 

Tired of those frown lines?  Plump them up with some Radiesse!  Radiesse stimulates your own collagen growth so your skin immediately looks plumper and more youthful.  And what a better time to get Radiesse then when you can get up to $100 off your treatment!?  No, you did not read that wrong!  For the month of May, in honor of Mother’s Day, we are offering up to $100 off your Radiesse treatment!

Bring in a friend and you can each get the discount!  Are all of your friends out of town?  No worries!  Come in by yourself and still receive $50 off per syringe!  Treat yourself for May…and your friends, too.  Have questions?  Call us at 301.652.8191.

Dr. Porter recommends an established consultation with same day treatment for existing patients.  Dr. Porter can discuss the differences and, more importantly, evaluate your needs and anatomy to recommend the best filler application.  Radiesse, Restylane, Evolence, Juvederm and Perlane are all fillers that we offer here at the office.

 Check our website periodically under What’s New and we’ll post any specials that we are offering.  In fact, we are celebrating Mother’s Day by offering $50 off Radiesse in the month of May!  If you bring a friend, you each get an additional $50 off!  How can you pass that up!?

Well, technically, at least.  And even though the weather might still be a little blah (come on, sunshine!), we can still start gearing up for the warm weather!  That means new warm-weather cleanser (gels over creams), lighter moisturizers, pretty, bronzed makeup (we looove our GloMinerals) and sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen!  And don’t forget: GloMinerals provides broad-spectrum UV protection.  While it’s not a substitute for sunscreen, it does help!
