BOTOX®

• Botox® is an injectable treatment that produces a relaxation of specific facial muscles. This will smooth out lines such as the frown lines between the eyes, crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles. Effects last generally 3-6 months.

FILLERS

• Restylane® is a natural cosmetic dermal filler utilizing non-animal based hyaluronic acid. It provides instant volume and fullness to the skin correcting moderate to severe facial wrinkles and creases. It can also be used to enhance the appearance and fullness of the lips. Treatment results are immediate and last up to six months.
• Radiesse® is another injectable filler used to augment wrinkles, depressions, and defects in the face. It is a more dense and durable filler material, and effects can last 12-15 months.
• Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus® is and injectable hyaluronic acid gel that is especially useful for lines around the mouth and nose. Treatment effects last about six months.

Consultations are complimentary and recommended.

LASER TREATMENTS

• Photorejuvenation
  A non-ablative skin rejuvenating treatment using AFT (Advanced Flourescent Technology). This treatment is used to help correct skin conditions such as telangiectasias (broken capillaries), rosacea, hemangiomas and pigmented lesions due to sun damage. It stimulates cell turnover and promotes collagen renewal. Four to six treatment sessions are recommended in 4-week intervals.
• Levulan® PDT Treatment
  A more aggressive form of photorejuvenation, combining the AFT treatments with a topical activating agent. It is used for more problematic cases of hyperpigmentation, keratoses, and acne.
• Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing
  We utilize the Pixel laser which produces micro-thermal treatments to resurface the skin, resulting in a more youthful appearance with little downtime. It results in improved texture and tone, improved fine lines, and a more even pigmentation. It is also useful to improve the appearance of scars, including acne scars. Three to five treatment sessions are recommended in four week intervals.
• RadioFrequency Skin Tightening and Fat Reduction
  We use the Accent RF Laser to non-invasively tighten skin and shrink fat deposits. The radio frequency energy is applied to the skin, producing heat beneath the skin, which can be applied to either tighten the skin or shrink underlying fat deposits. The procedure is quick and requires no down-time. It can be used on the face, neck and body. Best results occur after six to eight treatments scheduled two weeks apart.
