New Filler in Town

By contactus@carydermatology.com
November 03, 2020

Tags: Untagged

Cary Dermatology is first in the area to offer an innovative new filler.

RHA(resilient hyaluronic acid) Collection is the latest innovation in hyaluronic filler technology.  It is designed to be resilient enough to adapt to facial movements.  RHA uses a gentle manufacturing process with few chemical modifications.  This helps preserve the natural structure of HA, allowing it to mimic the natural HA found in your skin.  Dr Mangelsdorf has been using this filler for over a month and loves the way it integrates seamlessly into the skin with minimal swelling or inflammation.

OVID-19

During this challenging time, Cary Dermatology is grateful for your help in preventing the spread of COVID-19. You have played an important role in protecting yourself, your family and our community. 
 
To prepare for the rise of COVID-19 in our community, we had to delay some appointments, surgeries and procedures. This delay was critical for our response. However, we are now able to begin safely rescheduling needed appointments and surgeries.


Providing Safe Care
To protect those receiving care in our facilities, we are following recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and our infectious disease experts. Those precautions include:

  • Requiring all team members, providers, patients and visitors to wear masks.
  • Screening every person for symptoms before entering our facilities and testing all patients for COVID before all surgeries and procedures
  • Rearranging our waiting rooms to encourage physical distancing.
  • Performing enhanced cleaning of exam rooms between every patient and deep cleaning every night.
  • Installing additional hand sanitizing stations 
  • Allowing more time between appointments. This may mean some upcoming appointments will still need to be rescheduled as we work to see patients while reducing the overall number of people in our clinics at any given time.

Don’t Delay Needed Care 
It is important to note that you should not delay care like well-checks and other preventative appointments, and you should continue to take your medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Delaying care can lead to complications and advanced stages of disease. 

Upcoming Appointments

A member of our staff will be contacting you regarding your upcoming appointment.  They will help you determine whether a telehealth visit is appropriate for you.


Contact free 
We have made several adjustments to minimize the contact you will need to make in our office.  You will be required to complete and sign electronically any forms that you would normally sign in the office.  This includes a credit card authorization, consents and a medical history.  In addition, instructions will be given to send insurance cards and photo id if necessary

Thank You
We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. Please know that we are doing everything possible to minimize the spread of the virus and protect you, your loved ones and our team.

 

Coming soon.

Dear Patients and Families,

As concerns within our community regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) are rising, we would like to inform you that our team at Cary Dermatology is working diligently to keep our patients safe.

Wake County has issued a Stay at Home order.  All non emergent medical visits should be postponed until the order is lifted.

We are now offering Telehealth Visits. A Telehealth visit is a virtual appointment from your home. This can be done by IPhone, IPad or Computer with audio and video capabilities. If your visit can be done virtually we will convert your visit to a televisit. To schedule a televisit you can text us at +19193736648 or call the office at (919) 467-8556.  If you need to be seen in the office, our providers are seeing urgent problems on a limited schedule.

Rashes and contact dermatitis

Psoriasis

Hives

We are unable to perform a total cutaneous exam but may be able to discuss specific concerns.

If you do need to come to the office, know that we are following all CDC guidelines to keep you safe.  You will have your temperature taken before you enter the clinic and we ask that you do not bring people with you unless they are needed to help you with mobility.  Iif you have traveled in the past 14 days or have been in contact with a known or potential COVID-19 positive patient please reschedule for a later date.

We thank you in advance for your cooperation in helping us keep all our patients and staff well.

Dear Patients and Families,

As concerns within our community regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) are rising, we would like to inform you that our team at Cary Dermatology is working diligently to keep our patients safe.

Please note the following updates from our practice:

We already follow strict infection control protocols in our clinic that keep our facilities safe for all patients, and we are continuing to follow these best practices.

In addition, we have implemented a special COVID-19 preparedness plan and have asked any employees who are feeling sick to remain at home until they are better.

As a patient, you can help us protect the health and well-being of our patients and our community by following these guidelines:

If you have a fever or are experiencing symptoms of a respiratory infection (e.g., cough, sore throat, fever or difficulty breathing),or history of travel to areas experiencing transmission of COVID-19 or contact with possible COVID-19 patients please call our office to cancel your appointment.  When you are completely well or had a waiting period, we will do our best to reschedule any cancellations from this time period as soon as possible.

Follow CDC recommendations for preventing illness, such as proper hand washing with soap and water, , avoiding close contact with people who are sick, disinfecting frequently touched surfaces, and covering your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.  

We thank you in advance for your cooperation in helping us keep all our patients and staff well.

Respectfully,

     The staff and providers at Cary Dermatology

Sunscreen

By contactus@carydermatology.com

Sunscreen is again in the news as it is time to stock up for the hot sunny months ahead.  It has also been in the news regarding safety.

The safest ingredients are titanium dioxide and zinc oxide - the physical sunscreens, but these may not be as effective as the chemical sunscreens.

Oxybenzone is the chemical most in question for safety.  It is absorbed into the bloodsteam and in animal trials it did cause some problems with the endocrine system.   Those problems have not been shown in humans.

The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) continues to say that you should use sunscreen (including sunscreen with oxybenzone), and that it’s still considered safe to use when it comes to human health.

“Despite reports that oxybenzone disrupts hormones and causes cancer, we have no data to prove that real world use of sunscreens with oxybenzone is harmful to our health,” says board-certified dermatologist Joshua Zeichner, MD, director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City.

What’s more, skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States, and slathering on the SPF is the best way to keep it out of your future. “UV light is the number one cause of skin cancer, which is largely preventable with sunscreen and sun protective behavior. Based on what we know today, I do not recommend people stop using oxybenzone-containing sunscreen as it effectively blocks skin cancer-causing UVA rays more fully than many other chemical blockers used in sunscreen.”

The American Academy of Pediatrics states you may want to avoid using sunscreens with oxybenzone in infants and very young children. 

Sun protective clothing - hats, long sleeves and sun glasses - allows you to use less sunscreen and avoiding mid day sun is also helpful.  Remember even on cloudy days the UV rays are strong in the summer and protective measures should be taken.
