  • What is the Aura Reality 3D Imaging System?

    The Aura Reality 3D Imaging System is an advanced facial and skin imaging tool that creates a three-dimensional digital replica of your face and neck in one scan. It quickly analyzes various aspects of your skin, including texture, volume, structural changes, and proportions. This technology provides a detailed visual reference for both you and your healthcare provider.
  • Why are we using it at Dallas Laser & Vein?

    We've implemented the Aura system at Dallas Laser & Vein to enhance our consultations. It allows us to display your current facial anatomy in high detail, visualize potential treatment outcomes, develop personalized treatment plans based on accurate data, and involve you more effectively in the decision-making process. These advantages have been well-documented in aesthetic practices.
  • Does medical insurance cover vein treatments?

    Insurance coverage for vein treatments is determined after your consultation with our vein specialist. If your condition is deemed 'medically necessary', typically involving symptoms like leg discomfort, aching, or swelling, it may be covered by insurance. For treatments not covered by insurance, we offer interest-free payment options.
  • Why should I consider Dr. Jarrous as my vein specialist?

    Dr. Jarrous is a board-certified cardiovascular surgeon with over a decade of experience. He pioneered the establishment of specialized stand-alone vein clinics in Dallas and has performed the highest number of vein procedures in the panhandle with excellent outcomes. Our clinic offers comprehensive vein disease treatments, from spider veins to symptomatic large varicose veins and venous ulcerations, allowing for complete treatment at a single location.
  • Do I have to go to the hospital for my vein treatment? And how invasive are the procedures?

    All our vein treatments are conducted at our clinic and are minimally invasive. Patients can typically resume normal activities immediately after the procedure, including walking and driving.
  • What is the best treatment for sagging or loose skin?

    The optimal treatment for sagging or loose skin depends on individual factors, which we assess during a complimentary consultation and examination. For loose skin and 'turkey neck', we often recommend skin tightening treatments. These non-invasive procedures use controlled heating to constrict tissue and stimulate collagen production, resulting in natural and long-lasting skin firming effects.
  • How can I minimize pores?

    For pore minimization, we select a specific laser treatment based on pore size, skin type, and patient expectations. Our Sciton Laser has proven to be the most effective method, surpassing our Fraxel lasers and chemical peel techniques. It offers minimal downtime and is particularly suitable for small to medium-sized pores.
  • What is hand rejuvenation?

    Hand rejuvenation is a treatment process aimed at reversing signs of aging on the hands. It involves reducing wrinkles, minimizing prominent veins, and improving skin tone. Injectable fillers such as Radiesse and Voluma, both FDA-approved for this purpose, are commonly used to restore volume to the hands.
  • Is Cool Sculpting or Laser Lipo better?

    Laser Liposuction is generally considered more effective than Cool Sculpting. While Cool Sculpting freezes fat cells, potentially leading to a slight reduction in fat volume, Laser Liposuction permanently removes fat cells and simultaneously tightens the skin. Additionally, Laser Liposuction is typically more cost-effective, costing about half as much as Cool Sculpting.
  • What's the best treatment to remove brown or aging spots?

    The most effective treatment for brown or aging spots is determined after a digital skin analysis to assess the depth of the spots. We may recommend laser therapy, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, or a combination of both. While some improvement can be seen after a single treatment, optimal results usually require 2-3 sessions.
