COVID-19 Updates

Update – January 2022

With the recent surge of the Omicron COVID-19 variant, we’d like to remind patients of the measures we’re taking to keep you (and our team) healthy & safe!

We highly recommend wearing a mask while indoors, with social distancing markers in place to guide you through the office. All DLA staff are wearing high-filtration N95 masks.

Showing symptoms of a cough, fever, or sore throat? We’re happy to help with quick & easy appointment cancellations & rescheduling.

Thank you all for your patience, understanding, and support!

Update – May 2020

A warm and caring greeting from all of us here at DLA. We hope that you and your loved ones are staying healthy and safe during this challenging time!

We’d like to share the steps we have taken to ensure that our business is prepared to navigate this environment and strengthen our ability to ultimately welcome patients back to our practice.

We are thrilled to announce that our doors officially reopened on Friday, May 1, 2020.

We have hired new assistance, updated employee protocol, and trained diligently to take all appropriate measures for the safety of our patients and staff. We ask that you show up for your appointment alone (if at all possible) and wear a mask if you have one.

Please enter the building via the outdoor staircase to the third floor. You will be provided with hand sanitizer and given further instructions on navigating through our office during your appointment.

 

60-Day Immunity Kits

Dr. Sawyer has carefully compiled a kit of recommended supplements during this time. These kits include supplements like quercetin and zinc (mentioned in recent press conferences as items that can impair viral replication) along with instructions on dosing.

Kits are available to order while supplies last!

Simply call our office at 205-870-3303 or purchase your immunity kit directly through this link.

Introducing Sofwave

OUR NEWEST SKIN TIGHTENING SOLUTION

We’re always looking for the safest, most effective technology in the cosmetic industry for our patients.

Dermatology & Laser of Alabama now offers the highly effective Sofwave aesthetic treatment, featuring the latest technology to improve fine lines & wrinkles on the face and neck with no downtime.

We’re proud to be the first cosmetic dermatology practice in the Birmingham area to offer Sofwave!

 

What is Sofwave?

Sofwave is a new non-invasive treatment that works to restore collagen, firm and tone skin, and help to reduce the look of wrinkles. It revitalizes the skin through innovative stimulation of the production of new collagen.

The technology is FDA-cleared to improve facial lines and wrinkles, lift the eyebrow, and lift lax submental (beneath the chin), and neck tissue.

Sofwave has been honored with ELLE Magazine’s 2021 Future of Beauty Awards, which named the skin-tightening tech as one of their best new “In-Office Skin Treatments.”

 

 

How does Sofwave work?

Sofwave uses synchronous ultrasound parallel beam technology to boost collagen levels without affecting the skin’s surface. The procedure often offers a noticeable improvement in just a single session.

Some skin tightening and wrinkle reduction treatments may have noticeable downtime and can be painful for patients. The Sofwave system has built-in cooling and a fixed depth of treatment for a more comfortable procedure, making it a fast & effective skin tightening alternative.

Sofwave Skin Tightening is now FDA-Approved for Cellulite

Exciting news! Sofwave, the skin-tightening facial treatment that we trust as a solid solution for lines & wrinkles, is now approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the reduction of cellulite.

Sofwave has been an innovative technology for enhancement to the face & neck in our practice. The approval of use in cellulite treatment represents a vital addition to our cosmetic toolbox!

 

About Sofwave Skin Tightening

The Sofwave treatment rejuvenates skin using high-frequency, low-divergence ultrasound and heat to reach the deep layers of the dermis where collagen formation is stimulated. It uses a Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam, or SUPERB, technology, which has now been deemed safe for smoothing cellulite dimples as well.

In a clinical study, 68 female participants received two treatments, spaced 2-4 weeks apart on the upper thighs and buttocks. Photographs taken at baseline and the three-month post-procedure mark were assessed by blinded independent reviewers to identify and grade the pre-treatment and post-treatment images. The reviewers correctly identified the post-treatment images for 89 percent of the cases.

Cellulite Treatments with Sofwave

Cellulite affects most women worldwide at some point in life. It can be a complicated condition to treat, and often takes a multi-modal approach. Total body rejuvenation often requires a combination of different treatments including skin care, tightening, fat reduction, and muscle toning for your best results.

That’s why our body shaping center also offers CoolSculpting+ with Z-Wave, Vanquish, Exilis, and more!

At Dermatology & Laser of Alabama, we exclusively combine CoolSculpting with an additional treatment step (at no extra charge) to maximize results that are proven, noticeable, and lasting.

 

GET STARTED WITH SOFWAVE

We’re proud to have Sofwave skin tightening available at Dermatology & Laser of Alabama to help address the different aspects of cellulite — from the dimples to the overall surrounding laxity that often accompanies it.
