Unprecedented Services

Our practice offers the latest, proven treatments for your skin. Many of today's cosmetic procedures do not require anesthesia and are designed to be precise treatments. 

Our skin rejuvenating Fraxel procedure will incite the collagen in your middle layer of skin which will result in tightening skin and this effect will continue to communicate to surrounding cells for a longer-lasting result.

Our facial tightening RF treatment will also communicate with the collagen-producing layer and continue to tighten with subsequent treatments. 

We proudly added body contouring with SculpSure, an innovative laser FDA approved to permanently melt away stubborn fats pockets without surgery. 

Dermapen is a microneedling procedure that will stimulate collagen production and assist in a deeper penetration of active nutrients and skin rejuvenation.

We also offer a great service and price for our laser hair removal clients.

Christopher D. 


What does Fraxel Laser treat?

It is a safe and FDA approved treatment for many skin conditions such as:

Fraxel can be used for face, chest, eyes, neck, hands, stretch marks and acne scarring. This laser treatment can be used for mild, moderate, and severe skin damage, or even for simple prevention and maintenance of your skin. With the Fraxel Laser technique, your skin will become smoother, fresher, and healthier. Your skin texture and pores will size with the softening of wrinkle lines, and you will get the results you ever wanted. 

Read the review from our Fraxel treatment

Fraxel

How does it work?

Think of your skin as a digital photo in need of high-quality restoration or touch up. Just as a damaged painting is delicately restored one small area at a time, the laser treatment improves your appearance by affecting only a fraction of your skin at a time with thousands of tiny microscopic laser beams.

At your initial consultation, Dr Nawab will determine the best treatment plan for your desired results. Each Fraxel Treatment targets between 20 and 25 percent of the skin’s surface. On average, an effective treatment regimen is 3 to 5 sessions, spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart. Results are immediate and progressive. Optimal improvement is usually visible in about 2 to 3 months. Because Fraxel Treatment spares healthy tissue; it is effective even on delicate skin areas, such as the neck, chest and hands.

Apointment

Fraxel Laser Treatment can be performed right in your doctor’s office using only topical anesthesia.

Who can be treated with Fraxel Laser?

Most of the people can be treated with Fraxel Laser therapy because it’s a safe treatment on almost any skin type and color. Every person’s skin condition is unique, and everyone has a different genetic make-up, lifestyle, and personal history. This laser therapy targets your skin’s specific needs. 

However, some people can’t get Fraxel Laser Treatment. Your professional skin therapist may warn you against the laser therapy if you have:

  • Active acne
  • A tendency to form scars
  • Autoimmune disease or weak immune system
  • Very dark skin
  • Taken acne medication during the last year.

How to prepare for a Laser Treatment?

Before you get the therapy, your professional skin therapist will likely 

  • Ask for your medical history: You need to be prepared to answer all the questions before the treatment. You have to let your therapist know about your current and previous medical conditions and any medications that you are taking or you’ve taken previously. Also, you have to tell your therapist if you had cosmetical procedures in the past.
  • You need to do a physical exam: Your professional skin therapist will examine your skin and the area that needs to be treated. This exam will help your therapist to find out what changes can be made and how it will affect the final results.
  • You need to discuss your expectations: You need to tell your therapist what your expectations are from this treatment; besides, you need to be aware of the potential risks of laser therapy. You have to be sure you understand well how long the healing time will take and when you will be able to see the final results. 

What happens after the treatment?

You will experience a mild sunburn sensation for about an hour and then minimal discomfort. The skin will have a pinkish tone for 5 to 7 days. Swelling is minimal and generally resolves in 2 to 3 days.

Some patients are able to return to routine activities, including work and social obligations, the same day of treatment. Others require a little more time, depending upon their skin condition and treatment. Please consult your physician to understand how Fraxel Laser Treatment will fit into your schedule.

New epidermal skin develops within 24 hours. This process of skin repair involves:

  • Bronzing: Your skin will have a bronze appearance that lasts anywhere from 3 to 14 days, depending on your treatment level.
  • Flaking: Your skin will naturally and vigorously exfoliate as new skin replaces dead tissue. Flaking is similar to that of minor sunburn, but without the associated pain. The use of a moisturizer will mask the appearance of flaking.
  • Sunscreen: Be sure to use sunscreen at least twice daily to protect your skin from sun exposure during both the healing phase and for several months after treatment. Apply a moisturizing sun block with an SPF of at least 30-plus. For added protection, use wide-brimmed hats when in direct sunlight.

Over the following weeks and months, the body repairs the deeper dermal tissues that have been affected by the Fraxel treatment, producing longer beneficial changes associated with a healthy, youthful appearance. 

Apointment

What are the side effects of the treatment?

After the laser treatment, you may experience swelling and redness on the area that had been treated. The intensity of the side effects may depend on how aggressive your laser therapy was and what healing characteristics your skin has. Every skin is different. Some people who had more aggressive treatment may experience greater side effects than expected, while others who had less aggressive therapy may experience fewer side effects. 

How many Laser Treatments will I need?

The number of necessary laser therapies depends on the results on your skin. For example, the condition had been treated or how your skin responds to the therapy are common factors when the number of treatments is decided. Most of the people start to see the changes on their skins after 3 to 5 sessions that are usually spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. 

Does Fraxel Laser Treatment hurt?

Every skin therapist tries to make the session as comfortable as possible. Your professional therapist will apply a topical numbing cream on the area that will be treated before the procedure. Usually, cold air is also used in the treated area during the session to minimize the discomfort. Most people may feel a sunburn-sensation after the therapy, which usually disappears in a few hours. 

How much Fraxel treatment cost? *:

Single Treatment $1095- includes full-size medical-grade products that will enhance your results.  

Fraxel Face Series of 3 - $2500-3000. Price includes full-size medical-grade products that will enhance your results significantly. (savings of up to $800)

* The price range can change at any time and the website might not reflect the current price. Prices reflect the starting price and may vary by individual areas and treatments.

Color, Texture and Tone concerns

Color, Texture and Tone concerns

As we age, our skin ages with us. Our bodies begin to produce less of the things that keep our skin looking plump, smooth, and youthful. With the decreased production of natural anti-aging elements like collagen and elastin comes impairments to our skin tone, texture, and color. But we don’t have to let our age dictate the way we look or feel. At Vitalize MD, we offer a wide variety of effective and non-invasive facial treatments that can help you restore your skin’s color, texture, and tone – restoring your youthful glow and confidence along with them. Whether you’re battling the harmful effects of things like prolonged sun exposure and chemicals or pre-existing conditions like acne and rosacea, out treatments can help. Each facial treatment is carefully customized to meet your unique skin challenges and needs. And the list is growing every day. Call our office to book an appointment or obtain more information. We’re here to restore your glow. 

Lines and Wrinkles issues

Lines and Wrinkles issues

If you’re noticing fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes, on your forehead, or in-between your eyebrows, don’t fret. Just because we collect lines and wrinkles as we age doesn’t mean that you’re stuck watching them multiply. Our comprehensive and compassionate skincare treatments will help you achieve a more youthful, relaxed, and well-rested appearance so that you can love the way you look once again. Our lines and wrinkles treatments will work wonders for restoring your confidence. We can help simply smooth them out or take it a step further with injections designed to lift and raise the eyebrows, widen the eyes, soften your lip lines or turn up the corners, and diminish the appearance of stubborn neck wrinkles. Don’t let lines and wrinkles rule your life or your beautiful smile. Call today for more information or to book a restorative skin care appointment with our dedicated professionals. 

Volume Loss and Facial Contours

One of the most common complaints related to aging is the loss of youthful volume and contours. Over time, these facial features are replaced with shadows, hollows, and an overall appearance of tiredness or weariness. As our collagen levels fade and facial fat depletes itself, the volume in our faces diminishes. The dreaded “smile lines,” or “laugh lines,” begin to appear around the lips, nose, and corners of the mouth. Thankfully, our incredible Dr. Nawab is here to recommend the best option for volume loss and facial contour improvements. We will help soften problem areas and smooth your skin, creating a confidence-boosting look that is uniquely you. Call our office to learn more about our volume loss and facial contours treatment options, or to book your first life-changing appointment.

Body Contouring

There are a lot of reasons that we may feel out of shape: genetics, an unhealthy diet, hormones… The list goes on. Regardless of the reason, belly fat can be incredibly stubborn and resistant to even the most rigorous weight-loss attempts. What’s important is that you know that you’re not alone and that we offer incredible, non-invasive fat removal and body contouring treatments right here at Vitalize MD. SculpSure is an amazing aesthetic treatment method that will help you conquer stubborn problem areas, improve and tighten the skin in the treated area, and give you a slimmer, more comfortable physique.

Laser Skin Treatments In Westborough - Dr. Nawab

Skin can be damaged over time, and sometimes requires treatment to restore a fresh, younger look. Your dermal specialists at VitalizeMD have a number of treatments that will remove skin damage and rejuvenate your look. Topical treatments like oils and creams may only grant temporary and surface-level relief, but laser skin resurfacing will reduce or eliminate pigmentation discoloration, larger pores, wrinkles, and acne scars. Dr. Zainab Nawab is your dedicated cosmetic laser specialist in Westborough, serving anyone who wants to improve the look of their skin.

Achieve Youthful Skin

We offer laser resurfacing and Fraxel laser treatments with no less than the best technology available. We use FDA-approved lasers and methods that are proven to help individuals with their skin. Each patient receives custom care that seeks to combine the best treatment with what a patient wants. Our skilled personnel is certified to give each patient the best care possible and restore confidence in our patients’ skin.

Laser resurfacing will safely and gently remove damaged layers of your skin. Using the FDA approved Fraxel® laser, which has lasers that pinpoint individual spots on your skin, Dr. Nawab can precisely remove tissue without causing damage to other parts of your skin or body. The Fraxel® laser is so effective it actually encourages your skin to grow new tissue.

This reduces your recovery time immensely. As a fractional laser, it works on both surface skin and the mid-level layer of skin, epidermis and dermal collagen, respectively. Side effects include: redness in the face, swollen or bruised skin, minor acne, and other skin reactions. Most patients do not experience severe reactions, but if you do our specialists at Vitalize are prepared to give you aid.

Skin Tightening works on the dermal collagen level. Using the Fraxel® laser, Dr. Nawab heats the collagen in your skin, helping it to contract and begin the skin tightening process. As a result, new collagen is produced in your skin and this reaction spreads to your skin around the treatment area. If your face or neck receives the treatment, then you will see wrinkles and saggy skin disappear over time.

This treatment can be applied to many parts of your body, areas that are prone to wrinkles may need repeat treatments, and after the initial process individuals may want to receive treatments annually to keep their skin looking youthful. Side effects are minimal, thanks to the gentleness of the procedure. You may experience feelings of warmth in treatment areas, and if more serious side-effects occur, please see your doctor.

Collagen P.I.N.


Collagen PIN Microneedling Treatment

We are very excited to introduce the next-generation Collagen Induction cosmetic procedure. Innovative and effective, Collagen PIN activates cellular regeneration to help tighten and lift skin, while minimizing common skin problems such as acne scars, fine lines, photo-aging, dull skin, poor texture, stretch marks and body scars.

The Collagen PIN is the most advanced medical-grade automated micro-needling device on the market and we are the ONLY practice in the Metro west area to offer this exciting treatment. 

How does a microneedling procedure work?

The Collagen PIN falls somewhere in the middle of a corrective laser treatment, like Fraxel, and of a maintenance treatment like chemical peeling and Microdermabrasion.

Microneedling is a form of collagen induction therapy. The tip of the Collagen PIN contains sterile micro-pins that are used to create micro-injury sites at precise depths in the skin. This treatment makes use of the skin’s natural healing process to stimulate collagen, growth factors and elastin production. The result is a reduction in the appearance of textural issues and skin rejuvenation.

Who is a good candidate for the treatments?

One of the awesome things about the P.I.N is that it can be used on all skin types, skin colors and on any part of the body. That’s right….NO restrictions!

How many treatments will I need?

Typically a series of 3-6 Collagen P.I.N. treatments is recommended, depending upon your area of correction or concern. Your skincare professional will ultimately determine a treatment schedule based on your individual skin conditions, skin issues, goals and desires. Treatments are usually spaced in 4-week intervals. Patients with deep wrinkles, advanced sun damage, stretch marks, or any type of scars, usually require 6 or more treatments to achieve the desired results. 

Will the Collagen P.I.N. procedure hurt?

Prior to your treatment with collagen, the treatment area will be numbed with a topical numbing agent. Most people feel almost nothing after having been pretreated with a topical numbing agent. 

What will I look like after my microneedling treatment?

Immediately after your treatment, your skin will look slightly pink to moderately red. We have you go home with a post-care kit containing skincare products that are 100% paraben free, gluten free and vegan, which will greatly minimize these symptoms and enhance your overall results. 

Can I use makeup after treatment?

Directly after your treatment, we recommend using only mineral-based foundation, as it cannot build bacteria. You may go back to your regular foundation 4 days post-treatment.

How long will it take for me to see the results? 

Most patients see results after the first treatment. Individual results vary depending on individual skin conditions. It is common to see positive results as soon as 1-2 weeks after the first treatment. Often, change is noted within just a few days!!! 

How long will my Collagen P.I.N. results last?

This produces results through the stimulation of growth factors and collagen, thereby promoting new skin cells to surface. As our skin ages, our collagen production naturally slows down. Your overall result will last longer when using an at-home regimen that includes a daily Retinoid product. We can help you determine the best-suited home care regimen for your skin type. New collagen & elastin formation in the skin are documented as visually and measurably improved as much as one year after just one treatment. However, a series of treatments is typically recommended for best results.

How much does microneedling treatment cost?

At VitalizeMD in Westborough, the treatment can be purchased as a single treatment or as a series of 3 treatments.

*Single Treatment (Face Only)

Includes full size medical-grade products to enhance your results.

Prices start at $525.00

*Series of 3 (Face Only)

Includes full size medical-grade products to enhance your results.

Prices start at $1395.00

*Prices can change at any time and the website might not reflect the current price. 

We Suggest:

  • No Aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory products for two days prior to the procedure
  • No fish oil/omega oils for 1 week prior to the procedure
  • No Retin A – products or applications 12 hours prior to treatment.
  • No auto – immune therapies or products 12 hours prior to treatment.
  • No prolonged sun exposure to the face 24 hours prior to your treatment. Collagen P.I.N treatment will not be administered on sunburned skin.
  • If an active or extreme breakout occurs before treatment, please consult your practitioner.
  • On the day of the treatment, please keep your face clean and do not apply makeup before coming in.

Chemical Peels


Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels


DermaSweep  | Dermapeels

Chemical Peels | Vitalize MD

Rejuvenate your face and chest by improving the appearance of fine lines, blemishes, uneven skin pigmentation and acne. Chemical peels exfoliate superficial, dead skin layers and allow new healthy cells to surface, permitting light to reflect off smooth, healthy-appearing skin for a beautiful, youthful effect.

For best results, we recommend a series of 3-6 peels at a monthly interval and then one every 2-3 months to maintain these glowing results.

Microdermabrasion


Treatment Options

Microdermabrasion


Microdermabrasion treatment

Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure used to renew overall skin tone and texture. It can improve the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, acne scarring, melasma, and other skin-related concerns and conditions.

The procedure uses a special applicator with an abrasive surface to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it.

A different microdermabrasion technique sprays fine particles of aluminum oxide or sodium bicarbonate with a vacuum/suction to accomplish the same outcome as the abrasive surface.

What types of skin conditions can Microdermabrasion treat?

While most everyone can benefit from the microdermabrasion rejuvenation, typical conditions that are targeted include:

  • Early aging lines
  • Mild Sun damage
  • Melasma (irregular brown patches)
  • Revitalize dull skin
  • Hyper-pigmentation
  • Improve and control acne
  • Refine enlarged pores
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Improving overall skin health

Our Micro Resurfacing System is a state-of-the art precision non-invasive exfoliation and skin revitalizing system. This powerful exfoliation encourages collagen formation, stimulates circulation, and cleanses the pores. Ideal for treating acne, early age lines, uneven skin texture, hyper-pigmentation, photo-damage, surgical scars, and improving overall skin health.

While microdermabrasion uses tiny bits of crystals or diamonds to scrub away the skin's dead cells, but 
DermaSweep uses bristles instead. ... These gentle bristles also work great on the thin skin around the eyes.

DermaPeels are a combination of microdermabrasion and a chemical peel. By first exfoliating the upper skin layer, the peel can reach deeper and more uniformly for a better overall result.

For best results, we recommend a series of 3-6 Dermapeels at a monthly interval and then one every 2-3 months to maintain the glowing results. 

Our prices for Microdermabrasion are between $199-$225.
The price range can change at any time and the website might not reflect the current price.

OxyGeneo Facials for Skin Rejuvenation

The Geneo Oxypod system is the ultimate 3-in-1 facial for achieving a younger, fresher, and naturally better-looking skin. It offers a unique 3-in-1 treatment that works both on the outside and the inside of the skin, combining clinically proven treatment protocols that encourage the natural processes of the body to renew and replenish the skin. 

What is OxyGeneo?

OxyGeneo is an innovative technology for skin exfoliation (removal of dead skin cells from the skin surface), improving skin oxygen levels and infusion of valuable products to enrich the skin. The simultaneous skin exfoliation along with skin oxygenation optimizes the absorption of the valuable components in the nutrient-rich gels into the skin.

OxyGeneo Facial

How does OxyGeneo oxygenate my skin?

OxyGeneo capitalizes on the Bohr Effect that was discovered by Christian Bohr in 1904. The effect indicates that when the CO2 (Carbon dioxide) concentration increases, the hemoglobin releases oxygen from within. The OxyGeneo interaction between the capsule and the treatment gel creates abundance of CO2 on the skin that triggers the Bohr Effect that oxygenate the skin naturally. Oxygenating the skin is beneficial in all anti-aging and corrective skin procedures. Take a look at the video for even more information!

Apointment

What do the OxyGeneo facials feel like?

Each treatment feels just like a warm massage for the face. The exfoliation is described as very refreshing and comfortable and, because there is no vacuum procedure (like with other facial devices) the overall treatment is more soothing and relaxing. Many clients fall asleep and wake feeling rested and rejuvenated. More sensitive skin type clients may have a warm sensation on the skin during the first part of the treatment.

How long do the results last?

OxyGeneo works with the natural repairing processes of your skin; therefore results are individual and may vary between people. Your lifestyle also affects the ability of your skin to improve itself, so keeping a healthy lifestyle helps to linger the OxyGeneo effect. In any case, the OxyGeneo effect is cumulative, so more treatments will bring longer-lasting results.

How soon after the treatment will I see results?

You can expect to see visible texture improvement immediately after the 1st treatment. The OxyGeneo effect is cumulative, so more treatments will bring better results.

Is there any downtime?

No, there is zero downtime.

How do I know which treatment is best for my skin?

During your first visit, our skin expert will examine your skin and match it with the right OxyGeneo treatment that suits your skin’s needs.

Vitamin C Facial Treatment 

Let’s C! Have you heard how beneficial Vitamin C is for your skin? Unless you’ve been “out of touch” for the past 20 years you probably have seen Vitamin C products everywhere.

Allow me to break it down for you. Vitamin C is water soluable. Our skin is made of lipids so in order for Vitamin C to be absorbed it needs to be a stable form of Vitamin C. Stable and effective forms of Vitamin C are: ascorbic acid, L-ascorbic acid, ascorbyl palmitate, sodium ascorbyl phosphate, retinyl ascorbate, tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate.

The many benefits of Vitamin C include:

  • Protect skin cells and skin's support structure from UV-related damage
  • Improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin
  • Strengthen skin's barrier response
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Promote collagen production
  • Enhance effectiveness of peels and microdermabrasion
  • Lessen hyperpigmentation (at levels of 3% or greater)
  • Boost the efficacy of sunscreen actives

Our Vitamin C Facial is the perfect “GO TO” year round but especially beneficial during summer months when we are exposed to those powerful UVA Rays. We take the good with the bad, right? Pre-cleanse, exfoliate, steam, deep cleanse, extract (if necessary), tone, Vitamin C, Calming cool Alginate mask, moisturize, protect. Shoulder, hand, head massage included.

So, if you “Wanna Drop a Decade” ~ make Vitamin C one of your staples inside, with fruits and vegetables and out with topical Vitamin C.

Are you considering Botox Injection
in Westborough? 

Let’s Talk About BOTOX® and Dysport 

Have you been considering BOTOX® or Dysport but just aren’t sure if this procedure is for you? Maybe you’re completely unfamiliar with facial fillers, or don’t see how they can benefit you. Perhaps you’ve heard they’re painful and scary, or that you’ll never be able to stop receiving treatment once you start! We’re here to tell you that neither of those things is true. Read on to find out more about what these injections are, what they can do for you, and what you can expect before, during and after the procedure!

Earn Reward Points!

What Is BOTOX® and Dysport?

We’re so glad you asked! BOTOX® and Dysport are FDA approved injectable muscle relaxants that smooth facial wrinkles and lines. Pesky wrinkles around the corner of the eye, smile lines, frown lines and brow furrows tend to appear as we age. This is because our skin loses elasticity and the repeated expression movements start to leave their mark! 

That’s where botox comes in. This purified (and totally safe) protein is actually distilled from a toxin called Botulinum Type A and works by blocking nerve impulses in your muscles that trigger contractions. Basically, that’s a fancy way to say that it temporarily restricts the certain muscle movement in your face that causes deep expressions and their wrinkles. The targeted muscle paralysis only lasts about 3 to 6 months, which is why many patients tend to go in for follow-up treatments. 

What is Dysport?

You may also see the offering of Dysport injection at our medical aesthetic practice in Westborough. This is nearly identical to BOTOX® in that it is derived from the same Botulinum Type A. The only difference is that the Dysport protein is smaller, so it tends to work much quicker. The end results are similar from our patients’ standpoint!

Who Should Get These Treatments?

Because it’s primarily used to soften the appearance of wrinkles and lines, some assume that facial injectables are only for older patients. Surprisingly, the best uses are in a younger crowd, ideally from 28-36. This is when wrinkles begin to appear but have not had a chance to deepen. In this case, Botox is highly effective for prevention. Why? There are studies that show that when it is used at the first sign of a deep line, they can train muscles to relax so the repeated expression or movement that created the line ceases to happen. That’s right; this can prevent lines from forming in the first place! 
However, older patients shouldn’t worry. If you’ve already got those wrinkles, never fear. Injectables can help soften those lines to give you your youthful skin back!

Apointment

Is There Any Reason I Shouldn’t Get It?

With some conditions, you probably shouldn’t get this treatment. The following conditions are reasons we recommend you do not have a treatment:

• You’re allergic to any part of its preparation
• You’re allergic to cow’s milk protein
• You suffer from a neuromuscular disease
• You have previously had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product, such as Myobloc or other varieties of BOTOX.
• You have a skin infection at the intended injection site
• You are pregnant, planning to be pregnant soon or are currently nursing.

Okay, I’m Going For It! What Should I Expect?

It seems like patients’ biggest concern is that this facial treatment will hurt! We’re here to tell you, they really don’t. Many describe injection from the tiny needle as a little pinch, like you’d get from two fingers! Most often there will be 5-7 super-quick injections which will leave little red dots that look like mosquito bites! These fade within minutes. The whole procedure is often done within 15 minutes, so if you snuck off on your lunch break no one will be the wiser. You may have to pull a few funny faces in order to “set” or “fix” the product, and the worst side effect most people have is a bit of a headache for most of the day. Side effects do come on an individual basis though, and besides a headache, some may experience nausea, flu-like symptoms and/or pain and redness at injection sites.

You can expect to see results in about a week, or sometimes a little longer. Most often, you’ll be able to make those wrinkles or lines that you had treated for a couple of days, say if you furrow your eyebrows. Then all of a sudden, you just won’t be able to anymore! You’ll have smooth, serene skin for the next few months before the treatment wears off. For most people, effects last 3 months and wrinkle reduction can be seen as long as 4 months although of course, individual results may vary! One cool thing about repeated use is the effect will begin to last longer! 

We hope this eased some fears and questions about BOTOX®/ Dysport.

Facial Sculpting/Fillers


Facial Sculpting and Fillers 

As we age, the face loses youthful volume and develops shadows and hollowing leading to a tired and weary appearance. Dermal fillers can help to reduce or eliminate wrinkles, raise scar depressions, enhance thinning of the lips, treat lip wrinkles, raise brows, erase the hollowness beneath the eyes and add volume to cheekbones or chin for a more youthful appearance.

Dr. Nawab uses a full complement of fillers to give you the look that is right for you. Each filler has similar applications but are made up of different substances, applied to different areas and last for different lengths of time. Dr. Nawab will work with you to see which treatment will give you the best results.

What are the side effects of dermal fillers?

All fillers can cause bruising, redness and swelling that can last for several days.

How long do fillers last?

Individual fillers have different time spans in our skin. The more active an area you are injecting fillers into is, the lower the life-span of the product.

How painful are treatments?

Injections can be uncomfortable; however the discomfort is very short term. A local anesthetic is either premixed into the filler or it is mixed at the time of injection to minimize the discomfort. A topical anesthetic cream can be applied 1 hour before the procedure if desired.

Are there medications that should be avoided prior to using fillers?

Medications that can increase bruising and bleeding at the injection site should be avoided for at least 1 week prior to the injections. These include Aspirin, NSAID family (Advil, Motrin, Aleve etc.), St John Wort, high doses of vitamin E, Ginko Biloba, ginseng.

Laser Hair Removal in Westborough

Laser Hair Removal

One of our most popular series of treatments typically results in significant permanent hair reduction. Using the fastest and safest system available today our laser hair removal treatments are safe on all skin types and effective for most hair colors. No system is effective on white or gray hair so get your treatments before it’s too late!

How does our Laser Hair Removal work?

Every laser is different, our laser works by destroying the blood supply to your hair follicles and/or the melanin in the hair follicle. When this blood flow is gone, the hair follicle and its active parts will shrivel and die. Our laser technology has many safety features. Its depth of penetration goes to the very deepest follicle and people of all skin colors can be safely treated. Men and women can now enjoy freedom from hair is areas such as bikini, underarms, back, chest, and face.

How many treatments are necessary?

How many treatments you need will depend on your number of growth cycles and how hair-free you wish to be. Expect 6-8 removal treatments, spaced 5 to 6 weeks apart. Shaving or clipping hair in between treatments is allowed but no waxing or plucking.

When will I notice results?

Approximately 10 to 14 days after your first treatment, you will see the initial results. It is very pleasing. However, you need to remember that we recommend a series of six or more treatment, approximately 5-6 weeks apart, for the best results. Remember, your body tends to make hair again.

What about side effects?

While side-effects are rare, some patients may have a swollen appearance to the follicles for a few minutes after treatment. This usually resolves before the patient leaves the treatment room, but sometimes can last for 24 hours. Because the Laser generates heat within the follicle, there is a risk of a small water blister. Local pigmentation may develop, which is usually responsive to topical creams, and it resolves without any problems. Please inform us, as soon as possible, of any problems.

Laser Hair Removal

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Our goal is to make you comfortable. Our technology can deliver adequate power with minimal tissue heating and therefore you may feel minimal or no discomfort. With our Laser Hair Removal technology and with the use of our computerized scanner, treatment areas are scanned in a sequential fashion and not treated twice or more times, which minimizes the likelihood of side-effects.

How much does Laser Hair Removal cost?

The cost varies widely, depending on factors that include:

  • Size of the area being treated and time required for treatment
  • Number of treatments required
  • Whether a doctor or someone else is performing the procedure 

Laser Hair Removal Prices *: 

Underarms: $160/treatment (Packages available for savings)

Upper lip: $110/treatment

Chin: $135/treatment

Standard Bikini: $235

Non-surgical Fat Removal and Body Sculpting

Introducing EMSCULPT NEO

Eliminating fat and building muscle non-invasively.

Two therapies in a single treatment. 

Looking to achieve a 30% reduction in fat and 25% increase in muscle, with zero effort and in less time than your lunch break?

What if you could eliminate fat and build muscle at the same time? In fact, it is possible to do both in just 30 minutes. EMSCULPT NEO is the first non-invasive body contouring procedure that simultaneously removes fat and builds muscle. It’s the only non-surgical body sculpting procedure available. EMSCULPT NEO stems from the EMSCULPT which simultaneously emits high-intensity electromagnetic energy and radio frequencies. The result is a technologically advanced procedure with the capability to reduce more fat and enhance muscle growth in a lot less time.


How does EMSCULPT NEO body sculpting treatment work?

The EMSCULPT NEO uses an applicator that emits both radio frequencies (RF) and high-intensity electromagnetic (HIFRM+) energies. The radio frequencies heat muscles and tissue by several degrees. This heat prepares your muscles for stress. Think of it as a pre-workout warmup activity. In just under three minutes, the temperature in subcutaneous fat causes “apoptosis.” This is when fat cells become damaged, and the body begins to remove them. Clinical studies have indicated that that on average, the process reduces subcutaneous fat by about 30%.

HIFEM energy causes muscle fibers to contract. This intensity is not achievable during voluntary workouts. The stress on the muscle causes it to adapt which causes an increase in muscle fibers and cells. Some studies indicate muscles increase in volume by about 25% on average.

________________________________________________________

What areas of the body does EMSCULPT NEO treat?

The non-invasive medical procedure can be applied to the buttocks, abdomen, calves, thighs, and arms. When applied, it helps to burn fat and sculpt the region by causing muscles to contract and tighten. The supramaximal muscle contractions of the buttocks are often as effective as a Brazilian butt lift which is an invasive body contouring procedure. The EMSCULPT NEO offers similar results without invasive techniques.

Okay, I’m in! What should I expect?

Emsculpt NEO procedure is simple and easy. There is no pre-preparation required for this safe procedure. You will lay down while the applicators are applied over the treatment area for 30 minutes. During the fat reduction treatment, you may feel intense yet tolerable heating sensation along with muscle contractions. Once the procedure is completed, you can immediately get back to your daily routine. The Protocol for EMSCULPT NEO is four 30-minute treatments, scheduled 5-10 days apart.

After the treatment, the dead fat cells are flushed out from the body through metabolic processes. 
Each patient's results may vary but the best time to see the final results is in 3 months after the last treatment.

What happens after the treatment?

Everyday activities can be resumed almost immediately following treatment. Some people feel a little bit sore in the treated areas due to the intensity of the muscle contractions. You may want to avoid working out until the soreness goes away.

When should I start seeing results?

Most people see results after about two weeks of their treatment. Follow-up sessions can also continue to improve targeted areas. A session every four to six months can also help maintain a toned, lifted appearance.

How long do results last?

The results are long-lasting. Once the body has gotten rid of fat cells, they will not return. It is important to note that you will want to continue to take good care of yourself by observing a healthy, well-balanced diet and regular exercise plan. Working out will help preserve the muscle mass gained from EMSCULPT NEO. A healthy diet can help prevent growth from the fat cells left behind. You can also schedule more sessions to ensure prolonged favorable outcomes. For those who continue with muscle-building exercises, results may last six months or longer. It’s possible for you to enjoy a slimmer, more fit profile for life if an ideal weight is maintained.

Who is a good candidate for the procedure?

EMSCULPT NEO is approved for women and men who are of various fitness levels and body shapes. Individuals who have a BMI of up to 35 are good candidates for the procedure. The FDA has cleared ENSCULPT NEO for fat reduction and muscle toning in these areas:

  • Abdomen
  • Thighs
  • Upper Arms
  • Buttocks
  • Calves

Body Sculpting

What are the benefits of EMSCULPT NEO?

There are quite a few benefits from the non-invasive procedure, including:

  • It is a non-surgical, non-invasive procedure requiring NO anesthesia or downtime.
  • The treatment helps to tone muscles and reduce fat. It’s a great option for those who want stronger muscles and a more defined, sculpted physique.
  • The procedure is suitable for all skin types and tomes. There are no reported side effects other than minimal, temporary muscle soreness.

How does EMSCULPT NEO compare to other sculpting alternatives like liposuction?

There is no way to compare EMSCULPT NEO with liposuction. Liposuction is an invasive surgical procedure. EMSCULPT NEO is non-invasive. It doesn’t require needles, surgery, anesthesia, special preparations, or planned downtime. It cannot be compared with any other device in the field as no other treatment options reduce fat and promote muscle toning in a single treatment.

Can it help with weight loss?

No. The treatment is not designed to promote weight loss. However, it does reduce fat and help build muscles. Even slim individuals can enjoy its benefits as it helps build muscle mass.

What should I expect during treatment?

The procedure is easy and simple. You do not need any preparation. The treatment will last for 30 minutes. During that time, applicators will be applied over the areas you desire to be treated. You may feel tolerable levels of heat and the muscles as they contract. However, you should not feel any pain. After the procedure, you can go back to your daily routine. The protocol is four of these 30-minute treatments spaced five to 10 days apart.

How much does the treatment cost?

PRF Treatment for Hair Loss/Restoration

What is Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Hair Treatment?


Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Hair Treatment is a non-surgical, 100% natural, free of additives and chemicals, packed with powerful cells for skin and FDA cleared hair restoration treatment. It is perfect for both men and women who experience mild to moderate hair loss. PRF Hair Restoration works by stimulating and regenerating dormant hair follicles using your own growth factors and stem cells, while the ACell repairs at the follicle level. The Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) has proteins that regenerate the tissue and prime follicles for new hair growth. It’s ideal for male and female pattern hair loss, hypotrichosis (fine/reduced hairs) of the eyebrows or beard, and metabolic causes (due to iron deficiency and medication). There is no downtime, and the number of treatments may vary.

Benefits of Platelet Rich Fibrin Therapy (PRF) Hair Treatment


· Thicker, Fuller Hair

· Reduce Hair Loss Long-term

· Improved Hair Quality

· RESULTS IN AS LITTLE AS 6 WEEKS

How Does Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) Work?


Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) therapy works using the body’s own natural healing powers to slow and help to reverse the aging process. It’s a revolutionary repair system that places growth factors in the exact location where we want the skin to repair and rejuvenate itself by working to increase your own collagen. The treatment involves harvesting platelets from the patient’s own blood and injecting them into problem areas. This is then placed in a centrifuge to spin down the blood, which separates the red blood cells from the platelet rich fibrin-The Ultimate Blood concentrate. Platelets contain a high content of “growth factors” – proteins that help to heal injured tissue or damaged skin. Upon re-injection the platelets release their growth factors which trigger surrounding cells to proliferate, in turn stimulating repair, increasing volume and rejuvenating the skin.

How Does PRF Differ from Traditional PRP?


Although there are some basic similarities between platelet-rich plasma and platelet-rich fibrin, Platelet -Rich Fibrin stands out as a superior treatment option. They both require the same blood concentrate therapy concept, but PRF is 100% natural and unmodified, while PRP uses additives and chemicals in their vials. PRP requires more blood to be taken than PRF, and PRF is spun at a lower speed creating more tissue healing factors within PRF than is typically seen in PRP. In addition, the lower spin speed causes less trauma to the individual cells of the blood, allowing more stem cells to remain in the final PRF product.

What Can I Expect During a PRF Treatment?


First, we will consult with you to determine if you are a suitable candidate for this treatment. During the treatment we will use a topical analgesic to minimize the discomfort and draw a small amount of blood. Then we will spin it in our centrifuge to activate the fibrin and concentrate more growth factors, white blood cells, and stem cells while separating it from the other blood components. The PRF is then collected which contains your very own platelets and white blood cells and injected into the area of hair loss requiring rejuvenation. The entire procedure takes approximately 45 minutes to an hour and there is no downtime!

What Type of Results Can I Expect?


The visibility of expected benefits and results of the PRF treatment is typically seen after six weeks from initial treatment. The Long-term effects may take up to three to four months to be noticed and can last from six to 12 months. Results can vary from person to person. For hair loss treatments, we typically recommend 4 consecutive treatments every month followed by quarterly treatments to maintain the results. After a year, the treatment frequency can be reduced, based on the specific requirements of the patient. 

Combine it with Nutrafol hair supplements by taking 4 pills a day for visibly, stronger and faster- growing hair. Nutrafol is clinically proven, natural and 100% drug free that targets root causes of thinning hair like stress, nutrition, and hormones.

Acne Treatments


Acne Laser Treatment in Westborough

People of all ages can have acne and our protocols use a combination of home-based treatments, Acne facials, DermaPeels, light-based treatments and laser treatments.

We encourage you to call our practice, and our friendly staff will be glad to schedule a consultation for you with Dr. Nawab and Kathleen, our master aesthetician to answer any of your questions and assist you with choosing treatments that meet your individual needs. 

What exactly is acne?

Acne is the result of your pores blocking and allowing bacteria to grow within. Normally our pores produce oil (sebum) for healthy skin. This sebum becomes a growth medium for bacteria within the pore and the resultant block can lead to whiteheads (trapped sebum and bacteria stay below the skin surface), blackheads (trapped sebum and bacteria become partially exposed and turn black due to melanin (skin pigment)), papule (your pore wall breaks and white blood cells rush in to fight), pustules (several days after the pore breaks, pus goes to the surface), nodule (pore break along the bottom and a large inflamed bump results) or cyst (severe inflammatory reaction with very large pus-filled lesions).

Can what I eat influence my acne?

While there is still much controversy about diet and its effect on acne, there are clear links between worsening acne associated with fatty, oily and high-sugar foods and drinks.

What treatment works best to treat acne?

Approximately 80% of the population suffers with acne at some point in their lives (as teenagers and adults). Your particular source for acne can be influenced by your age, diet, sun exposure, hormonal influences and genetics. Additionally, the cost and duration of treatment with topical medications and oral antibiotics make standard therapy far from ideal, especially if it’s ineffective. Individual treatment plans will vary from person to person but certain portions of our recommended treatments are clearly effective if done appropriately. We offer multiple types of topical regimens (depending on your skin type and ongoing problem) through our line of medical grade products and do occasionally add oral antibiotics in difficult cases, but we clearly have seen additional benefits with our Fotona Nd:YAG laser.

How does laser acne treatment help?

Acne has increased blood supply, the energy from our Fotona Laser heats up the infected area thus destroying the bacteria.

Can laser treat acne scars?

Yes Vitalize MD has various treatment options to treat acne scars. One of the options is Fraxel treatment. Click here to learn more about Fraxel treatment.

Can I still use a laser if I’m on Accutane?

Accutane causes an effect that makes your skin much more susceptible to the effects of the Lasers and generally, it is recommended that you be off Accutane for 6 months prior to your treatment.

How often do I need laser treatments and how long will the effect last?

The best treatment pattern is to start off with every 2 week cycles and increase time between treatments as the acne improves.

Rosacea


Other

Rosacea


What is Rosacea?

Rosacea is an adult skin disease that causes redness, swelling and occasionally, acne like pimples and small blood vessels on the face. Individuals will notice persistent redness in the center of the face, gradually moving out to the cheeks, forehead and chin. Early on, symptoms may come and go, but eventually the redness will persist with pimples and enlarged blood vessels becoming more noticeable. If not recognized and treated, the disease will worsen. Early recognition and treatment are keys to maintaining the health of your skin.

How do I recognize rosacea?
Look for the small, red bumps on the center portion of your face early on. Redness and tiny blood vessels will also become prevalent and more noticeable with blushing and flushing.

What things help and/or worsen rosacea?
Prevention of flares is the most important factor for treating rosacea. The exact cause is unknown. Avoiding hot drinks, alcohol and spicy foods will limit the flushing. Sunblocks are essential for lifetime. Daily use of SPF 15 or higher should be part of a daily routine. Avoiding excessive massaging, scrubbing or rubbing the face and avoiding irritating cosmetics, hair sprays and harsh soaps is also very important. Always exercise in cool environments.

What treatment options help? Our offices offer lines of medical grade skin care products through PCA and SkinMedica (including various sunblocks), as well as, mineral based cosmetics, for daily use. Individualized treatments are necessary, as the degree of rosacea will vary from one person to the next.

Westborough Sculpsure | Reviews | Vitalize MD


I did A LOT of research before I purchased a package of Fraxel Re:store Dual laser treatments at VitalizeMD, and it was 30% cheaper than Lahey Clinic’s Lexington Dermatology Fraxel Re:store laser package and 1,000% better! I purchased a series of Fraxel Re:store at Lahey two years ago, but I was only half satisfied with the results. Then I recently received Fraxel Re:store services from Dr. Nawab and her esthetician, Christine, at VitalizeMD and I am thrilled with the results!

Dr. Nawab and Christine offer the best of both worlds: you get the advanced technology, safety, and clinical effectiveness of a licensed medical doctor combined with the soothing comfort and know-how of a licensed spa esthetician. Christine’s pre-treatment and prep is what made the laser treatment virtually pain-free. On a scale of 1 – 10 (10 being unbearable pain), I’d say that the application of the laser on my face (multiple passes) was only a 3 or 4. Plus, both Dr. Nawab and Christine are very well educated and experienced about best practices to attain optimal results for your specific skin type. They take the time to listen to your concerns, and then offer great advice without any high-pressure sales tactics. Both Dr. Nawab and Christine sincerely care about your safety, comfort, and achieving the most effective results for your skin. I wish I could give VitalizeMD 10 stars.

Went in for a series of three Fraxel laser treatments. I was happy to find a super helpful and informative staff that guided me through the process, and three months after the final treatment I’m delighted with the results, and absolutely recommend Vitalize MD.

Dear Dr. Nawab,

I want to personally thank you for my NEW & IMPROVED lips! It is amazing how a little change such as improving your lips can improve your life. I feel 20 years younger. I look in the mirror and I just smile. Sometimes I just smile because; well it has improved all aspects of my life. I researched many different doctors and options from Fillers to Thermage. Your office impressed me; cleanliness, educated staff, and great follow up. Furthermore you did not rush me and you took the time to make sure I was satisfied. I am very happy with the Restylane® and Prevelle Silk®. This is the best present I have ever given myself. I highly recommend Vitalize MD. I look forward to seeing what else Vitalize MD is going to do for me.

It was quite a big step for me to schedule an appointment with Dr. Nawab but she came recommended to me by a close friend who’d had Botox and Restylane treatments. Her results are amazing, she looks 10 years younger. I wanted to do something for myself as I had just turned a big birthday and started to feel conscious about my looks. I asked a lot of questions which Dr. Nawab explained in great details, from safety of the products used, to pain sensations to recovery time. What I especially liked about the procedures is that it’s not an immediate total transformation that everybody would notice, but it’s gradual over a short period of time, so I don’t have to divulge my secret. But I’m happy to recommend Dr. Nawab and her practice for any cosmetics procedures, she’s excellent.

Dr Nawab is the best. She is gentle, caring and listens in order to meet specific needs. I was anxious entering Vitalize MD. My anxiety disappeared as soon as I met with Dr Nawab. Initially, I was there for laser hair removal, but I found myself asking questions about fillers. With Dr Nawab's help, we set up treatment plan. After several fillers and hair removal, I feel and look refreshed and relaxed. There was very minor discomfort but my new look is worth it. Thank you Dr Nawab.

I had been troubled by the first appearances of age spots on my face to the point where I wanted to do something about it. I visited Vitalize MD and was immediately put into total confidence by the staff and Dr. Nawab. The office is very welcoming and calming, I relaxed while I filled out my patient forms, after all I was a little apprehensive. Dr. Zainab examined my face while explaining the different procedures that are available today and took the time to go over my patient information. She recommended a Fraxel treatment and gave me an in-depth explanation of what I should expect, the recovery time and what to look out for after the treatment to protect my face. Dr. Nawab has a light touch and made sure that I knew each step of the procedure, which never felt really uncomfortable. I’ve had a total of three treatments and I am happy to say that I’m 100% satisfied with the results. I feel very good about recommending Dr. Nawab to anyone entertaining the ideas of skin repair.

I made an appointment with Vitalize MD to see if I could do something about the handful acne scars I have on my face. I had just ended my Accutane treatment and I had hoped that my skin would heal naturally. Unfortunately, I had a number of scars on my cheeks that I felt self-conscious about, and I was hoping to be able to erase them, if erase is the right term. When I first met Dr. Nawab, she explained that I would have to wait a good six month after the end of the Accutane treatment before starting any skin procedures and I was quite disappointed. On the other hand, it’s my face, and I would rather wait some more and make sure that the treatment is the safest possible. It’s now been 3 months since my laser treatment and I could not be more pleased. The whole experience was positive in every aspect, from the first meeting when I received a lot of information, to the series of procedures and the outcome. Dr. Nawab is patient, calm and reassuring; I can’t thank you enough for restoring my confidence.

Before I got acne, I never thought I would ever be in such a situation until I turned the age of fourteen. At first I didn't care so much because I thought it was going to go right away. I was wrong! I started using all these kinds of products that my family and friends told me about. Nothing worked. I would switch to a different product once I noticed that I have been using a certain product for too long and didn't make a difference. My skin would just get worse. This went on for about four years. But as Dr. Nawab was my physician, I asked her if she knew about anything that can help my skin get better. That’s when she told me about Revive MD. I scheduled for a visit right away. In less than a month of using the products I got from Vitalize MD, I could see the difference. I couldn't believe it! At some point I thought it was a dream, but it was real! Ever since then, my skin is very smooth. I am so grateful that I met Dr. Nawab because if I hadn't met her I would probably still try to use some other products that wouldn't help. Dr. Nawab you are the reason why I now look at my face in the mirror and get an endless smile. I am so thankful for the change you made in my life.

My experience with Dr. Nawab has been surprising, in a very good way. I went to her on a whim and now am thankful I did. She was welcoming, kind, gentle and mostly honest and fair. She did not pressure me, nor did she try to sell me products or services, she even gave me time and privacy to make the right decision . The treatment I had was not what I expected, it was much better. A problem I have been dealing with for many years, she understands what women want and she has an artistic eye, in a natural way that doesn't make one look fake. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Nawab is so knowledgeable, caring, and professional. I couldn't have asked for a better experience at Vitalize MD - The office is chic, welcoming, and relaxing. I had bad acne scars and purchased a series of three Fraxel restore treatments. My skin has never looked better and I'm so happy! Thank you, Vitalize MD, for your expertise. I would continue all of my Fraxel, as well as the other treatments here. Although I live in Boston, it's worth the drive. Highly recommended, with five-star service!

Office is beautiful and calm. Kathy was wonderful as my aesthetician. I enjoyed my facial very much. Best facial I have ever had. Kathy was very informative but not pushy with trying to sell their products. I would highly recommend this office.

Professional, honest, and all around great people.

Raisa Santiago, Worcester County

After doing a long search in treatments for sun spots and melasma fading I opted for Fraxel treatments. I feel so happy and lucky to find the place that offers exactly what I wanted. Great products and excellent service. Thank You Dr. Nawab for your professionalism and charisma!

From the receptionist to the treatments, everything in this shop is kind, honest and reasonable. I have been to many being now 60 so trust me on this. They all know what they are doing and they will tell you honestly what they suggest to help you help yourself.

This is my first time doing any laser treatment, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I finished my 2nd of 3 spider vein removal sessions and the results for me are very satisfying. It has made the larger clusters fade significantly and be less noticeable. The smaller veins have all but disappeared. I am very happy with the outcome so far and can not wait for my final treatment. Maybe I'll even wear shorts this coming Summer (something that I've never done). Dr. Nawab is fantastic. She takes the time to understand her clients goals and answers ALL questions. Her professionalism and ease are comforting when discussing options and during the treatments. Pam, the Receptionist, is friendly, professional and welcoming. She is very much a people person and it shows. She has a great personality and I like talking with her. If you are thinking about having any treatments done, THIS IS DEFINITELY THE CENTER you want to go to. I am a very cautious person and feel that I have made the correct choice.

Elaine, Shrewsbury

Dr. Zainab Nawab and her staff are extremely professional. I have been to other centers in the past, but Vitalize MD really tops all. I highly recommend Dr. Zainab.
