Cosmetic Dermatology
Minimally invasive cosmetic services in Boise, Idaho to help you look and feel your best.
Frequently asked questions
Our cosmetic services include injectables and dermal fillers, SkinPen microneedling, CoolSculpting body contouring, laser and light-based treatments, and medical-grade skin care. Which of these makes sense for you depends entirely on what you want to improve, so most patients start with a consultation rather than booking a specific treatment.
That's the standard we work to. Our approach is conservative and gradual — enhancing your features rather than changing them — and we'd rather build results over time than overcorrect in a single visit. If a treatment you're asking about isn't going to give you the outcome you're picturing, we'll tell you that directly instead of proceeding anyway.
Treatments are performed and supervised by our board-certified dermatologists and trained clinical staff, in the same practice that handles medical and surgical dermatology. That matters because a provider who understands your skin medically can spot the things that affect cosmetic outcomes — active rosacea, melasma, sun damage, a healing concern — before recommending a treatment.
You don't need to know before you come in. During a consultation, we'll look at your skin, listen to what's bothering you, and explain which options address that concern and which don't. Sometimes the recommendation is a procedure; sometimes it's a change to your skin care or sun protection first. You'll get an honest answer either way.
It can. Our elevation, high UV exposure, and dry air place real stress on the skin, and unprotected sun exposure will work against the results of nearly any cosmetic treatment — particularly anything addressing pigment, texture, or sun damage. Daily sun protection and a simple maintenance routine are part of every plan we build, and we'll tailor both to how you actually spend your time outdoors.
Often, yes — and it's one of the advantages of having everything under one roof. Tell our team both concerns when you schedule so we can allow enough time. Keep in mind that medical and cosmetic services are handled differently for billing purposes, and our staff can walk you through how that works before your appointment.
