Plastic surgeon Dr. Brandon Lambiris strives to offer the best skincare Sarasota has to offer. He proudly offers top-of-the-line clinical skincare products that his patients can take home to further the results of in-office skin treatments.

Switching to a clinical skincare routine can have a big impact on how your skin ages. These products do more than just keep your skin moisturized; they help your skin cells act younger.
Clinical products contain much higher levels of active ingredients like retinol, Vitamin C, and growth factors compared to what you find in regular stores. This means you're getting more powerful treatment with just a small amount.
Over-the-counter products usually only work on the surface of your skin. In contrast, medical-grade skincare formulas are designed to penetrate deeper, reaching the layer of skin where real changes can happen.
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution for skincare. Our team creates a customized routine just for you, based on your skin type and needs, making sure each product has a specific role.
While clinical products might seem more expensive upfront, their effectiveness means you’ll use less. This can help you save money in the long run by avoiding ineffective creams that don't work.
Almost everyone benefits from a structured, clinical approach to skin health. You don't need a specific "problem" to start, but these regimens are particularly transformative for certain concerns.

It takes time and commitment to see the full results from a home skincare routine. Our Sarasota skincare patients who follow the skincare regime as instructed for at least 12 weeks will experience the most benefits. As time passes, your skincare regimen may need to be adjusted.
Medical-grade skincare products are powerful and can work wonders for your skin. However, because they contain strong ingredients, your skin might take some time to get used to them. This initial phase is sometimes called the "purge" or adjustment period.
When you start using high-strength products like retinols or exfoliants, it’s normal to experience some dryness, flakiness, or slight redness at first. This might sound concerning, but it’s actually a positive sign! It means that your skin is shedding old, damaged cells to make way for fresh, healthy skin.
Our Sarasota skincare experts are here to support you through this transition. We typically suggest starting with a "ramp-up" approach, where you use these active products every other night. This allows your skin to gradually build up tolerance. After a few weeks, these adjustments will settle down, and you’ll start to see your skin looking brighter and smoother.
Viewing skincare as an expense is common, but we encourage Sarasota skincare patients to view it as maintenance for their face. Much like changing the oil in a high-performance car, consistent care prevents costly repairs down the road.
A full medical-grade regimen typically costs more than a drugstore haul, but the value lies in the concentration. A bottle of clinical serum might last 3-4 months because a single pump is all that is required. Furthermore, preventing damage now often reduces the need for more aggressive, expensive correction lasers or surgeries later. We work with various budgets to prioritize the "non-negotiables" (usually a Vitamin C, a Retinol, and a sunscreen) first, adding other steps as needed.

Department store brands are classified as "cosmetics" by the FDA, meaning they can only address the appearance of skin. Medical-grade lines are often classified as "pharmaceuticals" or "cosmeceuticals," allowing them to affect the skin's structure and function. They require physician oversight to ensure safety and efficacy.
Skin cells turn over approximately every 28 to 40 days, depending on age. While you may feel softer skin immediately, true structural changes—like reduced pigmentation or softened lines—typically become visible after 6 to 12 weeks of consistent use.
Sometimes. We respect that you may have favorites. However, mixing low-pH medical acids with certain OTC products can cause irritation or neutralize the effects. Bring your current bag of products to your consultation, and we can help you integrate the good ones while swapping out the ineffective ones.
