HOLIDAY WISH LIST…
This week is Thanksgiving, but we all see the Holiday decorations popping up everywhere and most of the retail stores are already playing seasonal music. Especially with Black Friday in the forefront of people’s minds, will be the gifts they want to give and receive. In this blog I hope to guide you on some amazing youth restoring gift options that you can ask for, as well as share with someone you love.
Where to Go
Fortunately, you need to go no further than East End Laser Care since we offer the most comprehensive spectrum of non invasive procedures. This is our specialty. While most doctors perform cosmetic injectables in addition to their area of expertise, we perform them as our primary goal to help you achieve the cosmetic enhancements of your dreams. You’ll have access to all the hottest, safest treatments with proven performance.
What You Want
This time of year the calendar is loaded with social gatherings. Many of us will be seeing friends and family whom we may not have seen in a while. Don’t you want to look your best? As cameras click away, everyone will be in lots of holiday photos to capture all the fun memories. Don’t you want to look back on those photos and like what you see? Whether you’re looking to receive a gift or give someone the gift of a rejuvenated face or body, we have a non surgical procedure that can help.
Many of these treatments are “in and out”, with little to no recovery, so they don’t require stepping out of the social holiday fun. You can see all the procedure options at www.DrCovey.com, but here are some of our most popular treatments:
- Radiant Skin glows after a FRAXEL LASER treatment. It is so versatile that you can firm up loose skin, brighten dull or pigmented skin, and even smooth out wrinkles.
- Non surgical mini face lift really exists with the skin tightening, collagen boosting THERMAGE CPT and ELILIS. AND… with JUVEDERM VOLUMA XC injections, facial volume is restored, resulting in a lifted, revitalized new look.
- Luscious lips become fuller with hyaluronic acid fillers JUVEDERM and RESTYLANE.
- Smooth out wrinkles on forehead and crows feet with BOTOX or DYSPORT.
- Fill in smile lines or those nasolabial folds that come down from the outer edge of the nostrils to the outer tip of the lips with JUVEDERM, RESTYLANE, OR RADIESSE.
- Sculpt the body without surgery by using THERMAGE CPT or EXILIS to tighten and lift loose skin on the arms, legs, and buttocks…and even drooping eyelids.
- Smooth out cellulite with CELLULAZE, the most advanced cellulite treatment available. It increases skin’s elasticity, flattens lumps and bumps and is clinically proven to smooth out the skin’s surface.
- Laser hair removal can save lots of time from shaving and waxing.
- Melt that extra fat from the waistline, abdomen inner or outer thighs, hips, arms, buttocks, etc. with SMARTLIPO TRIPLEX. It is the most advanced laser lipo available to remove fat and contour the body. Its skin tightening effects also help with loose skin after the fat is removed.
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!

Amazing Lasers for Age Reversing Cosmetic Treatments… Today
Lasers are an integral part of the anti aging revolution today...more so than over the past decade as both men and women now include laser treatments in their regular cosmetic/health regimen.
It’s absolutely true that the right laser treatments, done at the right times, can treat just about any skin problem under the sun. These laser and energy based magic wands can reverse the signs of aging, reduce deep lines and scars, resurface the skin, remove unwanted hair, reduce or eliminate skin pigmentation and textural abnormalities…and more. Since there are so many age reversing laser options available, my next few blogs will focus on these solutions. Keep reading!
WHAT IS A LASER? A true laser is Light Amplification by Simulated Emission of Radiation that uses a crystal to produce a targeted light beam.
HOW A LASER WORKS: All lasers are light based devices that target different types of skin cells to achieve the desired results. Your surgeon must be able to match the right laser to each individual problem. Each wavelength is unique to each problem.
ABLATIVE LASERS remove the top layer of skin tissue and the power can be dialed up or dialed down to increase or decrease the level of penetrations. The more ablative the laser, the deeper the penetration making recovery longer…but with more dramatic results
NON ABLATIVE LASERS leave the outer layer of skin intact but can still penetrate to correct the problem. Since there is no skin sloughing (as with ablative lasers) downtime is much shorter as are pain and discomfort.
I’ve been using lasers, and offering my patients the many amazing laser treatment options, for over two decades. See my website for more information: www.drcovey.com.
Here are just a few of the treatments we offer:
CELLULAZE LASER for attacking cellulite where it begins…under the skin! Cellulaze is the amazing FDA approved breakthrough treatments for cellulite that gets results with just one treatment. Smoother skin on your abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms and anywhere cellulite occurs, has proven this laser technology invaluable in the treatment of ugly, unwelcome cellulite!
CLEAR+BRILLIANT laser treatments are very popular this time of year to restore younger, healthier, clearer looking skin to enjoy along with the freshness of spring. Clear+Brilliant ushers in a renewed youthfulness with gentle treatments that combat the “early signs of aging.”
FRAXEL RE:STORE DUAL WAVELENGTH LASER TREATMENTS offer better results more quickly and more comfortably than ever before. This laser system uses two wavelengths to repair and restore smoother, fresher, younger looking skin.
Well, there are more laser options, but that’s it for this blog. I have patients waiting for their age reversing laser treatments!

For the Body of your Dreams…. Get “Body Sculpted”
My last couple blogs focused on Body Reshaping and an overview of a few of the amazing tools I employ to achieve my patients’ goals. Body Sculpting, Refining, Reshaping and Body Contouring (interchangeable terms) is so popular among Baby Boomers, GenX and the Millennials today…thus the reason for my stayed focus on it. Body Reshaping is safe and effective…is used for various body areas…and it is here to stay.
Changing the size, profile or parameters of the anatomy and refining those areas is what Body Sculpting is all about. There are various methods used for achieving the “perfect body” or “body of your dreams.”
CAREFUL PLANNING is REQUIRED…
TO ACHIEVE YOUR MOST DESIRABLE RESULTS for BODY CONTOURING.
WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE TO HAVE BODY SCULPTING:
- To tighten loose skin after dramatic weight loss
- Restore a PrePregnancy Body after Childbirth
- Tighten up loose, saggy skin and remove excess fat pockets
- Eliminate unwelcome Cellulite and “dimples” it causes
- Be able to wear stylish clothing of your choice
- Sculpt a healthy, trim, firm and contoured body
- Achieve the “refined” body they’ve always wanted
- Restore self confidence and boost self esteem
- Look as fabulous and healthy as you feel!
WHEN IS A GOOD TIME TO HAVE BODY SCULPTING DONE? This is the most frequent questions I get from patients. MY ANSWER:
This answer will vary with each patient since no two people are the same. But, you should be in good general health, and at a stable weight…for at least three months before starting on your personalized treatment program. Continuing a healthy, active lifestyle and weight management is critical to enjoying your long term results.
THE GOAL OF ALL BODY SCULPTING/CONTOURING is to achieve balance and harmony for the entire body. Thus, treating the body “as a whole” and never as isolated parts.
Since, patients often choose multiple body areas for refining, a combination of treatments may be required to accomplish the desired goals.
A REVIEW OF TREATMENTS I OFFER MY PATIENTS
SMARTLIPO TRIPLEXTM for Body Sculpting. . It involves removing unwanted fat from body areas that have resisted even the strictest diet and most rigorous workouts. SmartLipo accomplishes more than liposuction with less invasiveness and amazing precision!

EXILIS offers the newest advances in non surgical skin tightening to reduce unwanted inches and to lift and contour sagging skin anywhere on your body! CELLULAZE LASER treatments attack cellulite where it originates…under the skin. One treatment can result in smoother skin on your abs, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms and anywhere cellulite occurs.
Every generation today is concerned with anti aging! So, treatments are geared to turning back the clock…today’s Filler FaceLifts take years off an aging face by restoring youthfulness. New Voluma, Botox, Juvederm, Belotero, Dysport, Perlane, Radiesse and Restylane injectables eliminate and smooth out lines and wrinkles. Laser treatments remove age/sun spots, acne and more, and are part of safe, effective treatments patients choose daily to slow down the signs of aging.

The Wait is Over – Cellulaze is Here!
Stubborn cellulite is no match for this amazing laser treatment!
Finally, we can dramatically reduce cellulite with the new revolutionary Cellulaze™ Laser, the world’s first minimally invasive approach to attacking cellulite where it begins – under the skin! Dr. Covey is proud to be one of the first physicians to offer you this amazing breakthrough FDA-approved treatment for the removal of cellulite. With just ONE treatment, the Cellulaze Laser can give you smoother skin on your abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks and arms –anywhere cellulite occurs.
Many of us believe the common myths surrounding cellulite such as “only fat people get cellulite” or “this magic cream can remove cellulite” or even “eat this combination of foods and cellulite will miraculously disappear.” None of these are true!
Cellulite is a degenerative condition that no one can control. Aging, hormones, genetics, and weight fluctuations all play a role in how the hills and valleys of cellulite form within the layers of your skin. Affecting over 85% of women over the age of 20, cellulite was, until now, one of the toughest conditions to treat in the long-term.
Sure, diet and exercise can help reduce your weight but neither can help you get rid of cellulite. Other spa-like treatments treat the appearance of cellulite from the outside – but the results are temporary at best and only last as long as you continuously repeat the treatments. The incredible new Cellulaze laser actually REMOVES cellulite in ONE treatment and with little to no downtime!
Unlike other treatments, Cellulaze treats all three distinct causes that create that unappealing “orange peel” look. Using revolutionary laser technology, Cellulaze melts the excess fat caught under the skin, strategically removes the fibrous band that pulls the skin down into a dimple and stimulates collagen production which thickens the skin. Your overall result is smooth beautiful skin.
Here’s how it works: Using a very small cannula (a narrow tube about the size of the tip of a pen), the Cellulaze laser is inserted under the skin and the SideLight 3D™ technology directs a controlled laser thermal energy to the treatment zone. Lumpy pockets of fat are diminished, skin depressions are released and the elasticity and thickness of your skin improves. With such a small cannula, Cellulaze is a simple procedure that can be performed right in our office. Healing is quick so you can usually go back to work and other regular activities within a day or two following your treatment. Some results are immediate and get even better over the next few months.
Best of all, after your Cellulaze treatment, you’ll no longer feel the need to pull at the bottom of your shorts and skirts or wear long cover-ups in the hot summer weather. You’ll want to show off those smoother legs!
Why wait? Call us today at (631) 878-9200 to schedule your free consultation to find out more. (Visit our website at www.drcovey.com to see before and after pictures.)
