Restylane® is a cosmetic filler that can be utilized to rid you of deep wrinkles in your laugh lines (nasolabial folds). It can also be used to enhance the lip lining and thickening of lips. This procedure can be performed by H.L. Greenberg, M.D. at Las Vegas Dermatology.

If you have lost some of the volume that made your face look more youthful, and desire a more youthful appearance, Restyane may be the right filler for you.  Restyane is a Hyaluronic Acid Filler.  Hyaluronic Acid is a natural filler, which, unlike collagen can be dissolved if necessary.  Most Hyaluronic Acid Fillers last from 6 to 9 months, but could last up to a year or more.  A typically appointment for injection will last for 15 minutes, but may take up to 45 minutes if topical numbing or lip injections are required.  Restyane has recently been indicated for injection in the lips.  Fuller lips are a phone call away.  If you would like to get the volume back in your face, call Las Vegas Dermatology today for an evaluation and treatment- (702) 456-3120.

Dr. Greenberg's first book chapter was written on Parasitic diseases of the skin. The book chapter was written in conjunction with Dr. Harry Sharata, a dermatologist in Madison, Wisconsin. In the chapter the diagnosis and treatment of multiple skin infestations is discussed. There is a nice summary chart of diseases, causes and treatments located within the text.

We're often asked, "what is the Best sunscreen". There are many answers to this question: The 1st answer is one you will use.  Even when using sunscreen, most people do not use enough product.  It is important to reapply it every 2 hours while outdoors, or after coming out of a swimming pool or sweating.

The 2nd answer to which sunscreen is the best- is one with both UVA & UVB Protection- there are physical and chemical blockers in sunscreen. Physical blockers include zinc and titanium dioxide- they physically block the UV rays from your body. Chemical blockers include Parsol 1789 & will chemically affect changes from the UV rays.  Over time, the chemicals in these chemical blockers will break down, emphasizing the importance of re-application.

Many of the products out there are equivalent, but there are definitely differences between products. We offer a number of different sunscreens including Solbar and Vivite.  Additionally, we have many sunscreen samples from Aveeno, Eucerin, Neutrogena and Cetaphil for our patients to try.

Dr. Greenberg enjoys performing cosmetic procedures; he has been taught by and learned from leading experts in this highly competitive field. His training includes the use of: Fillers (Restylane®, Perlane® & Juvederm), Botox®, Dysport®, Chemical Peels, and Lasers.
