Fine Lines, Wrinkles, & Anti-Aging Services in Sarasota
Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process, but they can also be influenced by sun exposure, stress, and lifestyle factors. Over time, skin loses collagen and elasticity, leading to the appearance of creases around the eyes, mouth, forehead, and other areas. Whether you’re looking to soften early signs of aging or address deeper wrinkles, our Center for Aesthetics offers a variety of treatments designed to smooth, refresh, and rejuvenate your skin.

Morpheus8 RF Microneedling
Morpheus8 is an advanced skin remodeling treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production and deeply rejuvenate the skin. This powerful technology delivers fractional RF energy below the skin’s surface, making it highly effective for tightening and smoothing targeted areas of the face and body. It’s especially beneficial for treating the lower face and jawline, where early signs of aging such as jowling may appear, as well as areas like the arms and bra line.
Morpheus8 is ideal for improving a variety of skin concerns, including:
- Acne scars
- Dull or uneven skin tone
- Enlarged pores
- Loose or sagging skin
- Stretch marks
- Fine lines and wrinkles
What to Know Before Your Morpheus8 Treatment
- Avoid skin irritation (aggressive exfoliation, chemical peels, Retin-A, and retinol) 7 days prior to treatment.
- Avoid laser treatment, IPL, sunburn, self-tanner and spray tanning 14 days prior to treatment.
- Please notify your provider if you have a history of cold sores (fever blisters) or recurrent shingles so that a prescription for Acyclovir or Valacyclovir may be phoned in to your pharmacy prior to treatment.
- Men: Please shave the area to be treated. Long and dense hairs prevent electrode contact with the skin’s surface.
- Avoid taking the following blood thinning agents 7 days prior to treatment (if present health status allows): Aspirin, Advil, Aleve, Ibuprofen, Naproxen, Motrin, Excedrin, BC Powder, Celebrex, red wine, fish oil, vitamin-e, green tea, ginger, ginkgo biloba, and flax seed.
- A prescription topical numbing cream (Lidocaine 23% + Tetracaine 7%) will be prescribed for you prior to your initial treatment.
- On the day of treatment, thoroughly cleanse your skin and apply your prescription lidocaine 7% +Tetracaine 3% numbing cream to the treatment area(s) 30 minutes prior to your appointment time.
What to Know After Your Morpheus8 Treatment
- Apply after care twice a day for 3 days then start Biogel twice daily
- Immediately after treatment you may experience mild to moderate skin redness which may last 1-2 days.
- Avoid direct sun exposure 2 weeks following treatment to reduce risk of developing hyperpigmentation (skin darkening).
- The use of broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen, SPF 30 or greater, should be applied daily.
- Makeup can be applied one day following treatment providing the treatment areas are no longer sensitive.
- A series of 3 or more treatments spanned 4 weeks apart may be recommended to achieve desired results.
- Please be patient! On average, the human body requires 3 months’ time to generate new collagen and will continue to do so 9 months after the 3rd Morpheus8 treatment. Most clients will start to notice skin tightening and improved skin texture after their second treatment and the results typically continue to improve 9 months after the 3rd treatment. Results may vary depending on age, condition of skin, overall health, and genetic factors.

PicoSure Skin Rejuvenation
PicoSure® is a groundbreaking laser system that uses advanced picosecond technology to deliver non-invasive skin revitalization. Unlike traditional lasers that rely primarily on heat to target pigment, PicoSure works by delivering ultra-fast pulses of energy that shatter unwanted pigment without harming surrounding tissue.

At Marlowe MD ENT, we use the PicoSure laser to treat a variety of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation and pigmented lesions

How PicoSure Works
PicoSure emits rapid bursts of laser energy measured in trillionths of a second. These pulses break down areas of discoloration and stimulate the body’s natural healing response, prompting the production of new collagen and elastin. As your skin repairs itself, you’ll notice a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.
This innovative treatment is ideal for patients seeking effective skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime. Because PicoSure doesn’t rely on thermal damage, there is less risk of burning or irritation, making it a safe option for various skin types and tones.
Whether you’re looking to fade dark spots, improve skin texture, or remove an old tattoo, PicoSure offers a versatile and proven solution. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and find out if this advanced laser treatment is right for you.
FAQs
Which treatment is best for fine lines and wrinkles?
Many of the treatments offered at Marlowe ENT can all help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but each works differently. TempSure Envi uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten skin, while PicoSure and AdvaTx use advanced laser technology to improve skin texture, tone, and overall signs of aging. During your consultation, we can recommend the treatment that best fits your skin concerns and goals.
How many treatments will I need to see results?
The number of treatments varies depending on your skin condition, goals, and the technology being used. Some patients notice improvement after a single treatment, while others achieve optimal results with a series of sessions. Our providers will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.
Is there any downtime after treatment?
Most patients experience little to no downtime after treatment. You may have mild redness or sensitivity for a short time, but normal activities can typically be resumed the same day. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions to help maximize your results.
