- UltrasoundThe Ultimate Contour device utilizes a technology known as low-frequency focused ultrasound to target and disrupt fat cells in a precise manner. Unlike traditional methods, this technology does not generate heat, instead relying purely on mechanical action for improved control and reduced energy output. This makes the treatment process comfortable and painless for the user.
- MRIEMSCULPT® on seven independent studies averaged a 16% increase in muscle mass and a 23% average in fat reduction. These results are validated by Ultrasound, MRI and CT scans. EMSCULPT® induces approximately 20,000 forced muscle contractions per session. These supramaximal contractions are not normally achievable through voluntary muscle action with exercise. Also, the induction of fat cell apoptosis by HIFEM to sculpt abdomen is documented on histological in vivo studies. There was a 92% increase in fat cell death 8 hours post 1 treatment.

- BotoxThe professional application of BOTOX ® Injections can offer relief from the pain and discomfort associated with an overactive or imbalanced temporomandibular joint, two common causes of TMJ Disorder. Stress and/or normal activities such as talking, eating, or yawning can often cause unwanted side effects for patients experiencing issues with the temporomandibular joint, including teeth grinding, jaw clicking or popping, and headaches. Typically the Masseter and/or Temporalis muscles are responsible; however, a thorough examination of the patient’s symptoms and anatomy can usually determine the cause.
- Eyelid SurgeryTraditionally, the only effective and long-term remedy for tear troughs was lower eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty. Luckily, there is a simple and non-surgical option for men and women who would like to improve tear troughs for a well-rested and youthful look. By utilizing injectables composed of hyaluronic acid filler to add volume to the eye trough, we can smooth the area to correct a sunken look and diminish the appearance of shadows and eye bags. Filler injections for tear trough treatment in our Tampa office involves an injector placing dermal filler, typically Restylane, Juvederm or Vollure, in the tear trough in a cosmetic procedure designed to correct volume loss and pigmentation issues in the under eye area. This quick and noninvasive treatment provides a dramatic enhancement to the eyes and long-term results with little to no downtime.
- LiposuctionExcess fat under the chin, medically referred to as submental fullness, is a common concern for many people. A “double chin†can develop as a result of genetic predisposition, weight gain, hormonal fluctuation, or other factors. In many cases, diet and exercise offer limited improvement or no improvement at all. Fortunately, there is a non-surgical treatment option now available from Dr. Jeffrey Hunt and our skilled practitioners, Kristen Thornley, ARNP. *KYBELLA™ is an innovative, FDA-approved injectable technique to replace submental liposuction that will be able to help you achieve a more contoured profile. *This innovative treatment can be completed in the office, does not require extensive downtime, and can lead to exceptionally long-lasting results in most patients.

- Face LiftFacial skin is delicate, which makes it sensitive to sun damage, gravity, the natural process of aging, and other factors that can make you appear older than your actual age. While invasive surgical techniques can be used to address these concerns, most patients prefer a gentler approach to rejuvenation with laser skin resurfacing. At Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay, Dr. Jeffrey Hunt and our skilled medical team are excited to offer a completely non-surgical laser facelift. Fotona Micropeel is a revolutionary new technology that combines IPL and two laser wavelengths to target anti-aging from three different levels, working synergistically to smooth, plump and tighten skin using IPL, YAG and Erbium Micropeel. In a series of treatments, this technique can smooth away fine lines, stimulate collagen contraction, improve skin tone and texture, and enhance overall firmness with long-lasting results. Ready for more vibrant, younger-looking skin without surgery? Contact us today to discover if Fotona Micropeel may be right for you.

- Chemical PeelsAppearing as streaks of red or purple that often turn white in color, stretch marks (striae) typically occur when the skin is stretched during weight gain, growth spurts, or pregnancy. The skin condition can also be caused by medications such as steroids or hormones. Stretch marks appear when tiny tears in the supporting layers of skin result from excessive stretching of the dermis (the middle layer of skin). Dilation of the blood vessels form the discolored stretch marks, often turning white in appearance and making the skin area look scarred. Stretch marks commonly occur during pregnancy, and a large portion of adolescent females and males experience them during growth spurts, and/or as the result of body-altering sports such as weight-lifting. The use of dangerous drugs such as steroids can also contribute to stretch marks. While there are many treatments available that purport to effectively treat stretch marks, no topical remedies have been medically proven to improve the condition. There has been some success in skin rejuvenation treatments like chemical peels; however, significant results have been attained with laser skin resurfacing procedures.
- Skin CareYes, you can enhance your lip filler results as well as other cosmetic treatments with a medical grade skin care routine that incorporates sun protection.
