Let’s talk about that neck tightening. 👀

For this patient, Sabrina King combined Sofwave, Lumecca IPL, and Breeze Lymphatic Drainage. Sofwave uses ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production and improve firmness in the delicate skin of the neck, helping reduce the appearance of sagging and laxity. Lumecca IPL addresses sun damage, discoloration, and uneven pigmentation that can become more noticeable across the neck and décolletage, while Breeze Lymphatic Drainage supports lymphatic circulation and helps reduce temporary puffiness for a smoother, more refreshed appearance throughout the treated area.

After three sessions, we’re seeing a noticeable improvement in the appearance of skin tightness and firmness, with less visible sagging and smoother-looking skin throughout the neck area.

At RussoMD, we look at the different factors contributing to your concerns before recommending a treatment plan, allowing us to combine technologies when it makes sense for your skin. If neck rejuvenation has been on your mind, schedule a consultation with our team to explore your options.

Does filler really just “go away” over time? Not always. 💉

Filler can remain much longer than many patients realize, which is why continuing to add more product isn’t always the right answer.

Sometimes the best approach is to assess what’s already there, dissolve when appropriate and create a new treatment plan based on your current anatomy and goals.

If you’ve been getting filler for years, consider this your reminder that reassessment can be just as important as your next treatment.

So, what exactly is alloClae?

alloClae is a structural adipose tissue designed to add volume and improve contour in areas where fat naturally exists, without needing to harvest fat from your own body.

It can be used for body contouring in areas such as the breasts, buttocks and hips, as well as to address certain contour irregularities or areas of volume loss.

In this video, our team shares a recent case where more than 200cc of alloClae was used for a petite patient who wanted additional volume in her buttocks but didn’t have enough donor fat for a traditional fat transfer.

The procedure was minimally invasive, performed while she was awake and comfortable, with minimal downtime afterward.

Interested in learning more about alloClae and whether it could be an option for you? Schedule a consultation with our team.

What actually happens inside the body after a breast implant is placed?

The body naturally forms a thin layer of scar tissue, called a capsule, around the implant. While most people associate capsules with capsular contracture, normal capsule formation is part of the body’s response to an implant and can help keep the implant contained within its intended space.

In this video, Dr. Russo explains how that capsule forms, the role it can play in implant positioning and why he has concerns about newer implants designed to form less of a capsule.

When it comes to breast augmentation, understanding how different implants interact with the body is an important part of choosing the right option for each patient.

October’s Product of the Month is also SkinMedica’s newest launch. 👏🏼 Barrier Calming Cream has officially arrived at RussoMD, just as cooler weather starts putting a little more demand on our skin.

Your skin barrier plays an important role in keeping moisture in and irritants out. When that barrier becomes compromised from things like over-exfoliation, harsh weather, strong skincare actives, or in-office treatments, you may start to notice more dryness, redness, flaking, tightness, or sensitivity.

The Barrier Calming Cream steps in with rich, nourishing hydration to replenish the skin lipids that help maintain a healthy barrier. It’s especially useful alongside retinoids and acids to help minimize dryness, or following treatments like chemical peels and laser when skin needs added comfort and moisture during recovery.

Supporting your skin barrier matters year-round, but it deserves a little extra attention as we head into the cooler months. Stop in to shop SkinMedica’s newest addition or ask our team how Barrier Calming Cream could work with your current routine. 🤍

Full facial balancing is about more than treating one area at a time.

Small, strategic amounts of filler placed across different areas of the face can help restore proportion, support facial structure, and create a more cohesive result. This can be especially helpful after significant weight loss, when changes in facial volume may become more noticeable through the cheeks, temples, lower face, or jawline.

Rather than focusing on one feature in isolation, we look at how each area relates to the rest of the face and build a treatment plan from there.

What exactly is Alloclae and how does it work?

Alloclae is a donor-derived fat tissue product that is specially processed to remove the cellular components while preserving the structural framework.

Dr. Russo explains how that framework can support your body’s own cells and why he sees this as an exciting advancement in regenerative medicine and volume restoration.

Interested in learning more about Alloclae? Schedule a consultation with Dr. Russo.
