FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- WHAT IS THE TREATMENT LIKE?
A series of pulses will be repeated over the treatment area to ensure best results. While the face and neck can typically be done within 30 minutes, the actual time will depend on the size of the area treated. There is no need for a topical anesthetic, however, your clinician may choose to use one on more sensitive areas.
- WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER THE TREATMENT?
You may experience some mild redness in the treated area immediately after treatment and this should return to normal within minutes. Since the SkinTyte procedure is non-invasive there is typically no downtime so you can resume regular activities immediately following the treatment. You can also apply makeup and sunscreen after each session.
- WHAT RESULTS SHOULD I EXPECT?
SkinTyte procedure results may vary from patient to patient. SkinTyte is recommended for patients who desire moderate, noticeable skin improvement without having to undergo surgery. Full results often take up to four months.
- HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
The number of treatments needed will vary from patient to patient and your clinician can personalize a treatment plan based on the level of improvement you desire.
- WHAT AFTERCARE PLAN DO I NEED?
No special skincare regimen is required following the treatment. However, you should always protect your skin from direct sun exposure and use a good sunscreen. Your clinician will provide you with more information on what to expect as well as give you an aftercare plan to follow that will involve avoiding direct sun exposure and using sunscreen. ©2017 Sciton, Inc.

ProFractional & Profractional XC
Profractional therapy is a quick and comfortable laser procedure with little downtime, used for improving the overall appearance of your skin. The procedure is performed in your physician’s office and can be custom-tailored to your specific skin conditions and desired outcome.

- HOW DOES PROFRACTIONAL WORK?
ProFractional uses a tiny laser beam to treat thousands of pinpoint areas of your skin. Because only a fraction of your skin is directly treated with the laser, the surrounding untreated tissue promotes rapid healing. This skin’s wound healing response creates new collagen which add firmness and resilience to the skin.

ProFractional uses a tiny laser beam to treat thousands of pinpoint areas of your skin. Because only a fraction of your skin is directly treated with the laser, the surrounding untreated tissue promotes rapid healing. This skin’s wound healing response creates new collagen which add firmness and resilience to the skin. What is the primary application of ProFractional? Based on an assessment of your skin condition and cosmetic goals, your physician may choose to use ProFractional whenever a combination of resurfacing with minimal downtime is desired. What areas of the body can be treated? Most skin areas can be treated. Popular treatment areas are the face and neck, though many people also treat the chest and hands. You should discuss your needs with your physician. How many treatments will I need? Excellent results can be obtained in just one treatment, though the number of treatments may vary from patient to patient. Your physician can personalize a plan based on your specific needs and may choose to combine ProFractional Therapy with other aesthetic procedures to further personalize your treatment. What will happen during the procedure? Your skin will be cleaned in the treatment area and your eyes will be protected with safety shields. A laser handpiece will be positioned gently on the skin. When the laser energy is applied, you will hear a rapid succession of snapping sounds. The handpiece will be moved around to adjacent locations until the entire treatment area has been covered. The procedure normally takes 15 to 30 minutes. Will it be uncomfortable? ProFractional therapy is widely regarded as a comfortable procedure, usually tolerated with the use of a topical numbing cream or a local anesthetic, depending on the depth of treatment. What should I expect immediately after the treatment? Immediately following the procedure you may experience mild redness and a sensation resembling sunburn. Your physician will advise you on specific after-treatment care recommendations, which may include analgesics and application of an ointment to keep the skin moist. How long will it take to recover? Complete healing typically occurs within a few days and most patients usually feel comfortable enough to get back to work and apply makeup a day or two after the treatment. There will likely be some swelling that will subside within several days following the treatment. What aftercare do I need? You may be given skin care products and instructions on how to use them. Your skin will be sensitive to ultra-violet light after the procedure, so you must avoid direct sun exposure until fully healed. It is recommended that you always use some level of solar protection to avoid sun damage and premature aging of your skin. When should I expect results? As your skin heals in the days following your treatment, you may notice a general tightening effect. However, the true benefit of ProFractional is the collagen remodeling that occurs during the 4 to 6 months following your treatment.
MicroLaser Peel
MicroLaser Peel is a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment option that can create a refreshed appearance and reduce pesky signs of aging. This Sciton treatment stimulates your body’s natural collagen production process, which helps provide your skin with structure for a smoother, youthful appearance. It can help treat deeper concerns by directly treating the dermis. Common concerns addressed with this treatment include acne scars, sun damage, wrinkles, and more. There is minimal downtime associated with a procedure, and you should be able to return to your normal daily activities in 3-5 days.
Acne
For starters, let’s tackle the source of what causes active acne. Deep below the surface of the skin is a gland called the sebaceous gland. It secretes oil into skin pores, which then allows the oil to flow to the surface of the skin. Acne is an abnormal impairment of this process. Instead of exiting the pore, the oil forms a plug. More oil accumulates behind that plug, it hardens, and then becomes a cyst. Bacteria feed on this buildup, which then causes inflammation and redness, otherwise known as active acne.
- HOW DOES THIS PROCEDURE FIGHT IT?
Laser for active acne is a noninvasive treatment that utilizes pulsed infrared light energy to reduce the oil secretions that produce acne, while reducing redness and inflammation in the skin. Here’s how it works: By gently heating your skin’s upper layers, pulsed light energy helps eliminate the bacteria that live on the surface of your skin and causes acne redness. The infrared laser targets your skin from the inside out, which decreases the amount of oil secretions caused by the sebaceous gland. This laser treatment for active acne and acne scars also helps stimulate tissue repair to reduce acne scars caused by the acne process.
During this treatment, you will experience minimal discomfort at most. A warming sensation or a feeling of a rubber band snapping on your skin is common, but results will vary based on the level of treatment. Supplementary chemical therapies can be used in conjunction with this laser treatment. To produce the desired results, you will likely require 3 to 4 treatments over 2 to 4 week intervals. You will also need maintenance treatments.
- WHAT IS THE RECOVERY PROCESS LIKE?
Since laser treatment for active acne is considered non-invasive, there will be very little downtime post-procedure. Depending upon what your doctor says, you should be able to resume normal daily activities as soon as possible. After your treatment, you may experience some redness for a few hours, but again, your post-treatment results will vary based upon the area treated and how many treatments you have received. There will be post-care instructions that you will need to follow very carefully to ensure that the laser treatment works. This will also help reduce your risk of inflammation and redness while speeding up your recovery.

Thanks to Dr Rouch and BPS for such a great surgery experience
by Joan Heron
Category: reviewsI am very glad that I had my procedure done at Boulder Plastic Surgery. I am also very glad that Dr Rouch was my surgeon. He is naturally warm and personable. It is obvious that he really loves his work. When I made an appointment to ask about a surgical procedure that I felt uncertain about, he immediately began a relaxed conversation with me about what he was seeing and what my options might be. He was so at ease that I began to feel at ease and I made my decision. Having surgery at Boulder Plastic Surgery was a high- quality experience. Everyone who was part of my care was responsive and supportive, giving me the information that I needed to make a good recovery. My thanks to everyone involved. Special thanks to Lana for helping me with wound care. It made all the difference. I felt very taken care of by Dr Rouch who was responsive and supportive from start to finish. I really appreciate his skills, his kind demeanor and his thoughtful reassurances. He is a great surgeon. After my surgery, a close friend said, "You look like yourself, but better." I am very happy with my experiences at BPS.

8 years of positive and high impact treatments with Heather

Category: reviewsHeather’s treatments have transformed my skin and appearance. 8 years ago having never done professional skin care, I went in for a free initial consult with Heather. She gradually introduced me to quality skin care and treatments. She takes your lifestyle and goals and develops a high impact, personalized plan for you. No cookie cutter recommendations or high pressure. Genuinely, Heather cares about my personal progress and helps me reach my goals. My skin immediately transformed.

Say Yes to Dr. Maxhimer!
by Linda Connelly
Category: reviewsThere are so many amazing things that I want to convey that I am afraid I won't do this review justice. Dr. Maxhimer and Claudia are a dream team. They are so good at tag-teaming and keeping each other up to date on patient needs and progress that it boosted my confidence in my results during each weekly visit. I had quite a bit of work done - abdominoplasty, blepharoplasty, breast lift and augmentation. Claudia's ability to understand where I was at and what I was feeling at each stage of recovery was so helpful. She was ready with whatever I needed, anticipated each question, but let me ask it anyway, and helped me transition from post-op to healed with such ease that honestly, I was sad at the thought of not having our weekly chats anymore. She is a gem! I have had a substantial number of surgeries in my lifetime - all non-elective, so while I was not scared of surgery, I was very nervous for the outcome. I should never have been concerned. Dr. Maxhimer is smart and super down to earth. He has a sense of humor, he treats you like you are his friend, and he cheers right along with you as you start to see the results during recovery. He is encouraging by nature, so easy to talk to, and I needed that when contemplating massive overhaul at 52! I am now at week 7 post-op and feel amazing. I am so impressed with their servant hearts, their incredible skills and the results that I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Maxhimer to anyone looking for a surgeon. If I could have a pre-op call with any prospective patient, I would say this: Say YES to yourself. Say yes to Dr. Maxhimer and let he and Claudia take you under their wing for a few weeks of your life. You will not regret it.
