To my loyal, valued patients of Destin:

On Thursday, March 14 of this year, I closed my practice in Destin Plastic Surgery after 18 years. The decision to leave Destin Plastic Surgery was not difficult. Dr. Burden was getting a new partner this summer and we knew our space would be needed. We took a few months to consider our options going forward. This was the time for a hard decision. Should we move to a different office in Destin or should we open our office in our home town? We loved our practice and all of our patients so this was a very difficult choice to make. After careful consideration and a good bit of hand wringing, we did the practical thing and chose our home town of Mandeville, LA, because this is where all of our family is including our 7 grandchildren!
We have moved both our vein practice as well as our laser esthetic practice. We have added to our excellent line of esthetic lasers, now offering Moxi and the newest, laser hair removal technology from Sciton. Laser hair removal is now both painless and highly efficient.
We enjoyed our wonderful practice in Destin and became personal friends with so many of you. Leaving these relationships behind has been very difficult for us! To our surprise and delight, quite a few people have made the trip to our new office. We have loved seeing and treating them.
If we can help you in any way, please feel free to text Joy at 850-687-0600. Below is our new name as well and information about our new location:

Northshore Laser and Vein Center
220 Dalwill Dr., Mandeville, LA 70471
985-629-1589
FAX 985-302-3497

You can follow our new practice on FB, and I hope to offer sound advice to all the vein and aesthetic patients who follow us.
Mandeville is an upscale community about 45 minutes north of New Orleans on the shore of Lake Pontchartrain. Mandeville adjoins Covington, which has a trendy downtown area with great restaurants, shopping and the very nice Southern Hotel. Whether you are visiting for a getaway weekend and want a more upscale experience or if you want a quick stay for treatment only, there are appropriate hotels for each. We would be happy to make suggestions. The trip from Destin takes 4 ½ hours.

Sincerely,

Richard J. Grisoli, M.D.

Broadband light therapy, also known as BBL, is a non-invasive procedure that uses a broad spectrum of light to treat a variety of skin conditions. It is a safe and effective treatment that can be used to improve the appearance of skin, and reduce the signs of aging.

BBL works by targeting specific areas of the skin with light energy. This energy heats up the targeted cells, causing them to break down and be removed from the body. The heat also stimulates the production of new collagen, which helps to improve the elasticity and firmness of the skin.

BBL is a versatile treatment that can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including:

* Acne
* Rosacea
* Sun damage
* Age spots
* Fine lines and wrinkles
* Uneven skin tone
* Spider veins

BBL is a safe and effective treatment that is well-tolerated by most people. Side effects are usually mild and may include redness, swelling, and bruising. These side effects typically resolve within a few days.

BBL is a popular treatment for people who are looking to improve the appearance of their skin without surgery. It is a safe and effective treatment that can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions.

Here are some of the benefits of broadband light therapy:

* It is a non-invasive procedure, which means that it does not require surgery or any other type of incision.
* It is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of skin conditions, including acne, rosacea, sun damage, age spots, fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, spider veins, and unwanted hair growth.
* It can improve the appearance of skin, reduce the signs of aging, and remove unwanted hair.

The best way to get rid of varicose veins depends on the severity of the veins and your overall health. In some cases, varicose veins may not need any treatment at all. However, if varicose veins are causing pain, swelling, or other problems, there are a number of treatment options available.

Some of the most common treatments for varicose veins include:

Compression stockings:** Compression stockings help to improve blood flow in the legs and can help to reduce the appearance of varicose veins.
* **Sclerotherapy:** Sclerotherapy is a procedure in which a doctor injects a solution into the varicose vein that causes the vein to collapse.
* **Endovenous laser therapy:** Endovenous laser therapy is a procedure in which a laser is used to heat and close the varicose vein.
* **Radiofrequency ablation:** Radiofrequency ablation is a procedure in which radio waves are used to heat and close the varicose vein.
* **Surgery:** Surgery may be an option for people with severe varicose veins.

The best treatment for you will depend on the severity of your varicose veins, your overall health, and your lifestyle. Talk to your doctor about the best treatment options for you.

In addition to medical treatments, there are a number of things you can do to help prevent varicose veins or to reduce their severity. These include:

* **Maintain a healthy weight:** Excess weight can put extra pressure on your veins, so it's important to maintain a healthy weight.
* **Exercise regularly:** Exercise helps to improve blood flow, which can help to prevent varicose veins.
* **Avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time:** If you have to stand or sit for long periods of time, take breaks to move around and stretch your legs.
* **Wear supportive shoes and stockings:** Supportive shoes and stockings can help to improve blood flow in your legs.
* **Elevate your legs when you can:** Elevating your legs can help to reduce the pressure on your veins.
* **Quit smoking:** Smoking can damage your veins, so it's important to quit smoking if you have varicose veins.
* **Eat a healthy diet:** Eating a healthy diet that is low in salt and high in fiber can help to improve your overall health and reduce your risk of varicose veins.

Broadband light (BBL) is a cosmetic treatment that uses pulses of light to improve the appearance of skin. It can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including:

Rosacea: Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes redness, flushing, and small bumps on the face. BBL can help to reduce the redness and inflammation associated with rosacea.

Spider veins: Spider veins are small, red or purple veins that appear on the face, legs, or chest. BBL can help to remove spider veins without surgery.

Acne scarring: BBL can help to reduce the appearance of acne scars.

Sun damage: BBL can help to reduce the appearance of sun damage, such as wrinkles, age spots, and uneven skin tone.

BBL works by emitting pulses of light that target the pigment in the skin. The light energy heats the pigment and destroys it. This process stimulates the body's natural healing process, which helps to produce new collagen and elastin. As a result, the skin becomes smoother, more evenly toned, and more youthful-looking.

BBL is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of skin conditions, and it is performed in the office by appointment only. The number of treatments needed will vary depending on the condition being treated. Most patients experience some improvement after just one treatment, but several treatments may be necessary for optimal results.

BBL is a non-invasive treatment, which means that there is typically no downtime. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment. However, they may experience some temporary side effects, such as redness, swelling, and bruising. These side effects typically resolve within a few days.

BBL is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of skin conditions. It is a good option for patients who are looking for a non-invasive way to improve the appearance of their skin.

One of the things I enjoy most in our "boutique medical practice" is always trying to improve the "patient experience". When you work in a large group, often times it's difficult to get everyone "onboard". Very often we see satisfied patients who took the time to share their experience with others on social media, and for that I am deeply grateful. Our practice is totally fueled my referrals from previous patients and other health care providers who have seen our results. Here are just a few of the reviews we received in the recent past.

Tiffany Booker
I highly recommend Dr. Grisoli and Joy for any laser procedures you may be considering! From my initial consultation to the actual procedure, Dr. Grisoli and Joy explained every detail of what I was having done- from the preparation to post care. Both were very communicative and responded to all my questions and concerns the same day. During the procedure, Dr. Grisoli explained in detail what he was doing and is an excellent conversationalist and overall a very nice guy :). I had BBL and fraxel laser done on my face for melasma. When the first session did not yield the results we had expected, Dr. Grisoli offered to perform another session at no cost! Dr. Grisoli and Joy’s integrity and love for what they do is very evident in their treatments and patient care.

Kaela Friedman
This review is for Dr. Grisoli. I reached out to inquire about laser treatment. Dr. Grisoli was very responsive. I sent him photos and he quickly provided a recommendation that was less aggressive that what I had originally inquired about. He recommended BBL and within 5 days of treatment my skin is already 100% better. He is thorough in his explanation, does not push product, and is very personable. He ensured I was comfortable during the procedure, inquiring often if I was okay before increasing the laser strength. I also appreciated that Dr. Grisoli is an anesthesiologist as well. My skin is glowing and I'm not even fully healed yet I cannot recommend him enough!! .

Wendy Thomas
Dr. Grisoli and Miss Joy make an excellent team. From scheduling to vein procedures to follow-ups....I've never been cared for so well!!! Dr. Grisoli explained every aspect of the vein treatments step by step so I knew exactly what to expect and how to prepare. Dr. and Mrs. Grisoli are personable, caring, and highly efficient. My quality of life is drastically improved as a result of the vein treatments I received at Destin Vein Center.

Sandy Tucker
Dr. Grisoli and Joy were very personable and provided detailed information before my procedure. They strive to ensure patients are feeling comfortable and it definitely helped me to feel relaxed. I will be back!

Meghann Williams
I had such a great experience here! From the second I got there, until I left. Dr. Grisoli made me so comfortable during my face BBL. And was very informative in everything he did! afterwards his wife was sooo nice! My face was a Little hot after, they took me to the next room gave me a blanket and she stayed there giving me ice wash clothes until it cooled. The procedure wasn't bad at all and my before and after is a incredible difference! I definitely recommend Dr. Grisoli 100%

Ken Woodham
I have had several different types of treatments over the years for my sun damage skin. Every treatment left me in a
lot of pain for days afterwards, this was by far the best experience I've ever had treating sun damage on my face with very minimum pain. Looking forward to my follow up treatment now that I know what to expect, and not dreading it . Highly recommend this for anyone that needs treatment to their skin to try and rejuvenate that youthful look we all want back.

Brenda Munoz
Definitely saw a difference in my varicose veins, I don’t see the swollen veins any more. Dr. Grisoli and his wife Joy are very helpful when it comes to explaining the procedure that was performed on me!
