When it comes to advanced skincare and aesthetic medicine, the idea of relying on a single treatment to achieve your goals is becoming a thing of the past. At The Skin Center by Charlotte Plastic Surgery, we often recommend a strategic combination of treatments because it allows us to address multiple skin concerns at the same time, create more dramatic results, and often reduce the overall downtime.
By pairing technologies and medical grade skincare solutions that work at different levels of the skin, we can create a more powerful and efficient treatment plan. Whether your goals involve improving texture, tone, firmness, or volume, a combined approach can elevate your transformation and help you reach your best possible results.
Below, we break down why combining treatments is so effective and how we customize these plans for patients at The Skin Center.
Why Combine Treatments
1. Treatments Work Better When They Work Together
No single treatment can address every skin concern. By pairing modalities that target different skin layers, we can create results that are more complete and more long lasting. For example:
- A Halo resurfacing session improves texture and pigmentation at deeper layers. When followed by Vivace UltraVision, you also receive skin tightening and collagen stimulation at more superficial levels.
- A SkinMedica Vitalize Peel or ZO 3 Step Peel prepares the skin for microneedling with Exosomes or Pure PDGF, which helps amplify healing and improve radiance.
When treatments complement each other, improvements happen more efficiently and the overall transformation is more noticeable.
2. Better Results With Less Downtime
One of the biggest benefits of combining treatments is the ability to maximize results while minimizing downtime. Instead of spacing treatments far apart, our team can often sequence them in a way that supports your skin through a unified recovery period.
For example:
- A resurfacing laser treatment can be followed with Exosome therapy to support faster healing and more refined texture.
- A peel can be paired with microneedling in a treatment plan that allows the skin to recover in stages instead of repeating multiple healing periods.
This means fewer days away from social events, work, or travel while still achieving a stronger result.
3. Addressing Multiple Concerns at Once
Many patients come in with multiple goals related to texture, pigment, fine lines, or volume. Combined treatment plans are designed to speak to all of those concerns in a single, more efficient approach.
Examples include:
- Laser resurfacing with Vivace UltraVision and Exosomes for tightening, collagen boosting, and texture improvement.
- A peel series paired with microneedling to improve brightness, smoothness, and overall clarity.
This layered approach allows us to create results that look natural, balanced, and truly rejuvenated.
4. Fully Customized Treatment Plans
Your skin is unique, which means your treatment plan should be as well. During your consultation, our providers will assess your skin condition, goals, and lifestyle. We then build a treatment sequence tailored specifically to you.
Whether you are preparing for an event or simply working toward long term skin health, a combination plan ensures you are treating the right concerns at the right time.
Popular Treatment Pairings at The Skin Center by CPS
- Laser Resurfacing with Exosomes
A Halo or Vivace UltraVision laser session stimulates renewal at deep levels. Exosome therapy supports healing and enhances collagen production for stronger results. - Peels with Microneedling
A SkinMedica Vitalize Peel or ZO 3 Step Peel exfoliates and clarifies the surface of the skin. When followed by microneedling with Exosomes or Pure PDGF, the skin becomes more receptive to growth factors and regenerating ingredients. - Skin Tightening with Injectables
Vivace UltraVision treatments can be paired with neurotoxins or dermal fillers to enhance facial contours and maintain results over time. - Pre Treatment Skin Conditioning with Post Treatment Boosters
A barrier strengthening skincare system prepares the skin for treatment. After professional care, take home masks and serums help extend results.
