Welcome Megan!

It’s official – my training wheels are off and I have big shoes to fill!

Outgoing Marketing Manager, Mackenzie, with incoming Marketing Manager, Megan

My name is Megan Fussell and I am the new Marketing Manager for Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery. Like Mackenzie, I graduated from Georgia Southern University (Hail Southern!) in December 2013 with a degree in Public Relations.  As much as I loved small town life during college, I couldn’t wait to grow roots in the city where I had grown up! Immediately after college I moved back to Atlanta, GA and began working with a PR firm in Buckhead. When the opportunity presented itself in March 2014 to follow in Mackenzie’s footsteps, I just had to take it. I will admit that I never pictured myself working in the medical field, but I have loved every minute of learning about our procedures, getting to know our patients and becoming a part of the Atlanta Dermatology family.

As much as I will miss Mackenzie as my mentor, sorority sister and friend, I am excited to take the training wheels off and make her proud. 

Feel free to stop by my office and say ‘Hi!’ the next time you’re in – I would love to meet you! 

Mackenzie's Last Hoorah!

Marketing Manger, Mackenzie

I have LOVED working at Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery over the past three and a half years – it has truly been a unique and unbelievably rewarding experience. Dr. Cooper and the staff of AD&LS invited me on in January of 2011 to become the office’s very first Marketing Manager. I remember being so nervous to start on my first day. I was fresh out of college (Georgia Southern University) a bit squirmy with blood and avoided the doctor's office at all costs. However, the idea of getting to be as creative as I wanted to build our cosmetic side was something that was too good to pass up.  

Quickly, I learned how lucky I was to be hired to work here. As a staff we are all very close and spend many lunch breaks swapping funny stories and memories. We also enjoy playing pranks on each other (like the time they locked me IN my office). The patients at AD&LS are the best in Atlanta (or I’d like to think THE WORLD) – each of our patients enjoy getting to know us just as much as we love getting to know them. Many of the patients have become friends and I have loved hearing about all the exciting new things going on in their lives. And of course there is Dr. Cooper. Dr. Cooper is one of the greatest people I’ve ever worked for – his love of his job and his company is apparent. He treats his patients and his staff with the upmost respect, making it a pleasure and so much fun to come to work every single day. 

Mackenzie & her fiance, Matt

Why am I taking you down memory lane, you ask? Well, sadly… I have to announce that I am going to be leaving Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery on May 22, 2014 to move to West Lafayette, Indiana. I am getting married in June and my fiancé accepted a job with Purdue University last summer – so after all this time I will finally be joining him.

I am excited to announce that Megan will be taking over my job as Marketing Manager and I know she will do an amazing job.

New Year, New YOU!

Many don’t like the winter months and with reason…. It’s dark when you leave the office, it’s colder, the holidays pose for seriously high stress levels and everyone just seems to be a bit more… grumpy. However, there are a few plus sides to this chilly season. Winter months mean less time spent in the sun (largely, because it’s not out when we can be outside and who would want to be outside in the cold temperatures) meaning, it’s the perfect time to take care of your skin and look perfect by spring.

It’s a new year and with the New Year, should come a new YOU! There are a few cosmetic procedures that are perfect to get treated with in the winter, these include: 

•  Fractional Resurfacing: What is this fractional resurfacing, you ask? FX is a semi-ablative skin resurfacing procedure used to replace damaged skin and give you a more youthful appearance. This procedure can help fade and reduce fine lines and wrinkles on the face, crow’s feet around the eyes, pucker marks and uneven skin tone. There is light down-time with this procedure, so that’s why it’s great to do during the winter months—less sun exposure & it’s a lot easier to lay on the couch all day when it’s gross outside J.
• IPL Photorejuvenation: Photorejuvenation is one of our favorite procedures for making your skin look brighter, clearer and more youthful. IPL works by sending light energy into your skin that targets your damaged tissue—stimulating the production of collagen. The stimulation of collagen softens your aging skin and discoloration. As IPL uses light to target pigment and damage to your skin, sun exposure to your skin is not recommended, making winter time the perfect time for IPL.
•  CoolSculpting: CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure used to remove your unwanted belly bulge & love handles by freezing it away. I know, I know, who wants to be frozen when it’s already freezing outside? The good news is, you won’t actually be cold and the results are amazing! CoolSculpting works by freezing your fat cells, causing them to crystallize and shatter. After they have shattered the fat cells compact—giving you the result of a smaller bulge. Results take about two months, which is why the winter time is perfect for CoolSculpting.
• Exilis:Exilis has quickly become our most popular treatment at the office. Exilis is an FDA-approved device that offers a non-surgical solution to help tighten and tone your skin, giving you a more youthful appearance. Exilis uses Radio Frequency energy to stimulate and strengthen the collagen network in your skin and improve skin laxity and texture. Our patients love Exilis because it’s quick, comfortable and proves itself with undeniable results.  Most patients need a minimum of 4 treatments for best results. Patients begin to see results at about 2 months post treatment and can continue seeing improvement up to 6 months after treatment, which is why we recommend the winter months as the perfect time for Exilis.

 2013 is your year, for the new YOU! Treat yourself and look the best you’ve ever looked. For more information on any of our procedures please contact Atlanta Dermatology and Laser Surgery at (404) 296-8000 or visit our website.
