Morning after the UltraClear update! Don’t panic, folks—knowing what’s normal can really ease the mind! I’m experiencing zero pain, just a touch of soreness. Honestly, it looks way worse than it feels right now. Stay tuned for more snapshots of the healing adventure!

First, caffeine. ☕️
Then, bringing the best in dermatology back to Frederick.

Korean skincare is everywhere—but more isn’t always better.

One of my takeaways from EADV in Vienna: focus on what works—gentle cleansing, hydration, barrier support and daily sunscreen. Your skincare should be individualized, evidence-based and simpler than TikTok might have you believe.

✨ ULTRACLEAR VLOG: Treating My Upper Eyes! ✨
Today, I’m taking you behind the scenes as I treat my upper eyelids with the UltraClear laser! 👀
My goal? To improve skin laxity and reduce the appearance of hooding for a smoother less crepe look
You’ll see me wearing metal eye shields during the treatment. These specialized protective shields are placed over the eyes to protect them from laser energy damage
And a question I’ve already been asked… Are they uncomfortable?
Not at all! I experienced absolutely no discomfort from the shields. The treatment itself was very tolerable with the help of topical numbing and nitrous oxide. 🙌
I’m excited to share my healing journey, including daily updates, downtime, and results as they develop! Follow along to see how it all unfolds. 🤎

✨ Let’s Chat About It: UltraClear Laser | Face Edition ✨

Today, I’m sharing my own UltraClear laser journey! 👋🏼

I’m Meredith Gusman, Cosmetic RN at Frederick Dermatology Associates, and today is treatment day! 🙌

My goals? To improve skin laxity around my upper eyelids and soften those vertical lines above my upper lip.

I’m starting with a more mild treatment approach, with approximately 3 days of downtime as I begin my skin rejuvenation journey.

I’ll be sharing videos of the procedure, my healing progression, and the results along the way! 🎥✨

Stay tuned to see how it all unfolds, and follow along as I share my experience with UltraClear!
