Facial Rejuvenation

Facial laser resurfacing can be used annually for maintenance therapy or combined in a series to eliminate small superficial wrinkles and improve dyschromias of the face. Along with Botox and tretinoin, facial laser resurfacing of the face is among the best treatments for early facial aging and prevention.

Botox Cosmetic
Botox is a neuromodulator used to treat dynamic wrinkles of the face. Most common treated areas include the “11 lines” between the brows, horizontal forehead wrinkles and crow’s feet around the eyes. It can also be used to treat the jaw muscle to narrow the face and neck to improve platysmal bands. Injections take three to seven days to reach maximal effect. Results last three to four months.

Kybella
Kybella is an injectable used to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat), also called “double chin.” Kybella will break down the unwanted fat cells in the treatment area, and your body will resorb them over the next two to three months. A series of treatments four to six weeks apart can gradually improve the contour of the upper neck and chin.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections are processed from your own blood. Rich in proteins and growth factors, they can be used to improve healing and decrease bleeding in other cosmetic procedures. They are frequently combined with laser resurfacing and facial cosmetic surgery, or can be used independently to promote hair growth.

Injection of a dissolving agent into small, unwanted spider veins can permanently eliminate their appearance.
