BOTOX®

Botox® CosmeticBOTOX® is the simplest and most consistent way to smoothen deep frown lines and crow’s feet lines. BOTOX® works by relaxing the muscles that we use when frowning that cause the lines and wrinkles. After the muscle is relaxed, the skin becomes smoother and the lines and wrinkles are softened and sometimes disappear. The full effect is seen about 5 to 10 days after injection and lasts from 3 to 6 months. BOTOX® is the most common cosmetic procedure performed in the United States.

Fat Grafting

Q. As I get older the circles under my eyes are getting deeper, my cheeks are getting hollow and my lips are getting thinner. My skin is still tight so I am not ready for a facelift. Is there anything I can do?

A. You have probably noticed a change in your appearance especially when you look back to your high school or wedding photos. Your concerns are very common. What you are noticing is a decrease in the fullness of these areas of your face, which gradually occurs as we get older. This is because the fat in your face decreases and shifts position. The best solution for your would be to restore the fullness in the areas where there is hollowness by “fat grafting”. This is a safe procedure which can restore the youthful fullness to your face. Since we sue your own fat, you don’t have to worry about your body rejecting it.

Q. I have always wanted to have fuller lips but am not sure how I will look or how big they should be. Is there a way to fill my lips to see if I like the look?

A. Most patients are concerned about how they will look with their lips fuller. They are worried that their lips will look “too big”. Collagen may be the answer for you because it lasts about 3 months. It can gradually be added to give you the look you like. Most patients are very happy with this new look and wish to repeat it later or ask for something more permanent such as fat grafting or Radiance. Collagen is also helpful to soften other facial lines such as the lines around the mouth and smile lines. And now there is a human form of collagen which does not require a skin test prior to use.

Restylane®

Restylane® redefining beauty™Q. I have some lines around my mouth and would like fuller lips. I have had collagen in the past but it doesn’t seem to last. Is there anything new for this problem?

A. There is a new FDA approved product called Restylane®. Restylane® is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to server facial wrinkles and folds such as smile lines. It can also be used to add fullness to the lips.

Restylane® is a natural substance that already exists in the human body. It is a crystal clear gel, biodegradable, and completely bio-compatible. There is no pre-testing necessary and studies have shown that the average treatment result lasts about six months or even longer. Restylane® has proven to deliver a longer lasting effect that traditional collagen with virtually no risk of animal disease transmission or allergic reactions. In our experience, Restylane® is softer and more natural, and the patients are very happy with it.

Q. I heard there is a new kind of laser for sun damaged skin that does not cause you to lose time off work. What is it and how does it work?

A. There is a new treatment to correct sun damage, and other types of environmental damage that occur to our skin over time. The treatment is called "Photo facial" or Intense pulse Light. The Pulse Light is different from laser in that there is very little, if any, downtime. It can be used on the face, neck, chest, hands, and any other area of your body where sun damage has occured. It is excellent for removing unsightly sunspots. It is also effective in correcting redness, rosacea, small facial veins, and unwanted irregular skin pigmentation. A series of five or more treatments are performed at three-week intervals. Each treatment takes approximately 20-30 minutes. For sensitive skin, a topical anesthetic may be applied. After each session, you will experience smoother, healthier, younger looking skin.

Juvederm®

Juvederm™ UltraJuvederm is the most popular natural filler for correcting wrinkles, smile lines and enhancing your lips. This injectable filler is easily administered and lasts about 6-12 months. The results are a smoother look that is natural and safe.
