Treat wrinkles and soften your appearance with Botox

After years of squinting, laughing, frowning, smoking, worrying, and sun exposure, your skin inevitably develops lines and wrinkles. Some of these lines are "expression lines." Other lines and wrinkles are from aging and sun damage. Until now, expression lines have been difficult to treat. Now, by utilizing an already approved muscle-relaxing agent, expression lines can be significantly reduced. Depending on the type of lines and wrinkles you have, you can choose from several options to correct the desired area. Botox and Dermal Fillers are two methods we use to treat wrinkles and soften your appearance.

What is BOTOX® and how does it work?

BOTOX® is a therapeutic muscle-relaxing agent derived from the bacterium, Clostridium Botulinum. For years physicians have been using BOTOX® as a cosmetic treatment to correct visible signs of stress and aging.

Your brain sends messages to your muscles so that they can contract and move. BOTOX® works to block the muscle from responding to the message; as a result, the muscle relaxes and the overlying skin remains unwrinkled and smooth.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion treatments are helpful for those unhappy with acne scarring, sun-damaged skin, age spots, freckles, stretch marks, fine lines, scars, and rough skin. Treatment can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, back, elbows, feet - just about anywhere!

What results can I expect?
By speeding up the cellular turnover process, Microdermabrasion brings you closer to healthier, younger-looking skin. It allows you to gradually resurface your skin without the risks, side effects, and down time of more aggressive alternatives. In as little as twenty minutes, this gentle, abrasive technique efficiently produces satisfying results. Further improvements in appearance and texture will occur with each treatment.

How many treatments will I need?
To achieve a good result, several treatments are recommended. Treatments are typically scheduled one to two weeks apart. You will experience a progressive improvement throughout your treatment program. Ask to schedule a consultation to determine the approximate number of treatments recommended for achieving fantastic results.

How does my skin look immediately after treatment?
Microdermabrasion leaves your skin feeling soft and silky with a healthy glow. You leave the office with only a mild, temporary pinkness on the treated area. Best of all there is no "down time." Resume regular activities immediately!

Fast Solution For Excess Fat Deposits

VASER LipoSelection® is a minimally invasive procedure that precisely and efficiently removes unwanted body fat while promoting smooth results and rapid healing.

Why is it different?
The LipoSelection procedure uses ultrasound energy to break up and remove fat deposits from the body. Fatty tissue contains a large percentage of fat cells as well as blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. Ultrasound energy selectively breaks up and emulsifies fat, while leaving other tissue relatively intact. LipoSelection typically results in low to minimal pain and low incidences of bruising or prolonged swelling.*

LipoSelection by VASER is both efficient and precise. In fact, ultrasound energy is so precise and specific that the technology has been used to remove brain tumors and cataracts.

How it works.
During the LipoSelection procedure, small incisions are made in the area to be sculpted. Through these small incisions, a special saline solution is infused to numb the site, shrink blood vessels, and enhance emulsification. Emulsified fat is then readily removed with suction and massage.

Needing Volume To Your Skin? Try Juvéderm®

Juvéderm® gel is a sterile, clear, colorless dermal (skin) filler gel implant made of chemically modified hyaluronic acid derived from avian (bird) source. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the fluids surrounding cells and tissues. It is chemically, physically and biologically similar in the tissues of all species. Juvéderm® gel is made from highly purified natural hyaluronic acid that is gradually absorbed by your body through natural mechanisms.

What is Juvéderm® gel used for?

The gel is injected into skin tissue for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds).

Where does Juvéderm® gel come from?

The gel is produced from materials of avian (bird) origin and contains extremely small amounts of avian protein. Because of this, you should speak to your physician and you should not use Juvéderm® gel if you have any known allergies to avian protein.

How does Juvéderm® gel work?

Juvéderm® gel is injected just beneath the skin surface temporarily adding volume to the layers of the skin that have deteriorated due to age and other factors. The gel, when injected, is used to raise depressions in the skin, providing temporary correction of wrinkles and folds.

Expression Lines

We, espically us ladies, are emotional creatures. After years of squinting, laughing, frowning, smoking, worrying, and sun exposure, our skin inevitably develops lines and wrinkles.

Some of these lines are "expression lines." Other lines and wrinkles are from aging and sun damage. Until now, expression lines have been difficult to treat. Now, by utilizing an already approved muscle-relaxing agent, expression lines can be significantly reduced. Depending on the type of lines and wrinkles you have, you can choose from several options to correct the desired area.
