BOTOX COSMETIC

Botox®Cosmetic

Botox®Cosmetic, approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2002, is a proven, simple and effective minimally invasive treatment for the temporary relief of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, forehead creases, crows feet near the eyes and thick bands in the neck.  These lines are the result of muscle movement that forms over time.

Botox works by using Botulinum toxin, an agent that is injected into the underlying small muscles of the face to block nerve impulses, which reduces the movement of those muscles and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.  With less movement, the skin surface gradually smoothes out and the moderate to severe frown lines begin to fade.  Improvement can be seen within days and may last up to four (4) months, although individual results may vary. There is no recovery or downtime.

Over a million people have been treated with Botox®Cosmetic since it's FDA approval.  For more detailed information visit http://www.botoxcosmetic.com

DERMAL FILLERS

Restylane®

Restylane®is made of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that already exists in the human body.  A safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin and reduces facial wrinkles and folds, such as the nasolabial folds and adds fullness to the lips while maintaining its shape by using the body's own moisture. It is free from animal proteins.

Restylane® is long lasting, but is not permanent.  It generally lasts for about six months.  Results can almost be seen immediately. Follow up treatments are typically scheduled at six month intervals.  After the treatment, you may experience some redness or swelling at the injection sites, but normally lasts less than seven (7) days.  Sunbathing and cold outdoor activities should be avoided until any redness or swelling disappears.  If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or under 18, you shouldn't use Restylane®.

Radiesse®

Radiesse® is an FDA approved dermal filler for the correction of facial lines and wrinkles, such as the nasolabial folds (that area between the nose and cheek area and the corners of your mouth).  Containing patented advanced calcium-based microsphere technology, this water-based gel filler is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive procedure giving you immediate, visible improvement of folds and wrinkles and providing long lasting and beautiful results.  The effects of Radiesse filler may last a year or more. Plus an added bonus, it stimulates the body to produce new collagen to restore a natural, youthful look.

Not only can it be used to plump up the cheek, chin and frown lines (nasolabial folds), Radiesse can reshape or contour a chin, nasal defect correction, nasal tip projection, and enhance the jawline.  Providing facial volume for a natural look that lasts approximately a year, Radiesse® microspheres are safely and naturally absorbed by the body. To view before and after photos and learn more about the benefits of Radiesse, click on www.radiesse.com

 

ArteFill®

ArteFill® is the first and only FDA approved non-resorbable dermal filler for the correction of facial wrinkles known as smile lines that provides enduring wrinkle correction. It represents a novel solution for those patients who do not want to return for repeat treatments with temporary fillers.  20% of the material in ArteFill® consists of tiny round, smooth microspheres that are about half the width of a human hair.  The remaining 80% of the material is purified collagen that serves as a carrier gel for the microspheres.  This gel is absorbed by the body while the microspheres provide the support your skin needs for long-lasting wrinkle correction. 

You will be required to have a skin test before using ArteFill® to ensure that you are not allergic to the bovine collagen gel.

With proper placement, the material cannot be felt after treatment.  You will see results immediately and be able to return to your normal daily activities shortly after your treatment.

Microdermabrasion

One of the leading non-surgical cosmetic procedures available to rejuvenate your skin.  This gentle action exfoliates the epidermis and uncovers the skin's smooth under layer to accelerate collagen production and to improve the surface quality of your skin.  Performed as a series of treatments, this gradually refreshes the skin by propelling a stream of small crystals across the treatment area to dramatically diminish texture, color and pore problems of the skin.

This procedure is ideal for sundamaged skin, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged and/or oily pores, blackheads and whiteheads, age spots and blending the skin after laser surgery.  For those wishing to improve skin quality with virtually no recovery period Microdermabrasion is the procedure of choice.  For additional information, visit www.parisianpeel.com

 

MicroLaser Peel

These superficial laser peels were developed to offer a mid range treatment for facial rejuvenation; offering excellent results without the significant down time of a full depth laser resurfacing.  This “weekend” skin peel is perfect for patients who are not yet ready for such intense treatments but need more than a superficial treatment such as microdermabrasion.

BroadBand Light (BBL) also known as Intense Pulse Light (IPL)

For the treatment of sun damaged skin or photo rejuvenation, vascular lesions and small unwanted blood vessels and pigmented lesions, BroadBand light therapy, also known as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) may be the solution for you.

As our skin ages due to excessive sun exposure and the decreased production of collagen, skin rejuvenation with BroadBand Light Laser Therapy (BBL) helps you maintain a fresher, younger appearance.  BBL can make your face look smoother by removing age spots and diffuse redness and by improving your skin texture.  Uneven pigmentation can also be reduced.  BBL treatments are gentle, non-invasive and safe.  No anesthesia is required and there is virtually no downtime and makeup can be applied right away.  It is important to avoid tanning (sun, tanning beds or self tanning creams) before and during the treatment period, as your tanned skin will absorb more light and will make the treatment less effective.

BBL is very effective in treating Solar Lentigines (freckles), Age Spots, Brown Spots, Birth Marks, Rosacea, hyper pigmentation, spider veins (telangiectasia), facial veins and broken capillaries. Also, it may be used in the treatment for Acne.

The most popular areas treated are the face, neck, upper chest, back of the hands, arms and legs.  Generally, we suggest you wait two to four weeks between each treatment to produce the best possible results.  You may require additional treatments depending on your particular condition.

 

Photo Rejuvenation

Photo rejuvenation is a great treatment for age or sun damaged skin.  Using a broadband pulse light, this treatment will reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles, brown spots, small facial veins and various other skin conditions such as rosacea and melasma.  This process is fairly quick and painless with virtually no downtime following treatment.  Most popular treatment areas are the face, neck, back of the hands, chest and shoulders.

Laser Hair Reduction

Our Sciton® ClearScan™ is a fast and effective method for easy removal of unsightly and unwanted hair with extremely positive reports from our patients.  ClearScan™ contains an infrared laser that selectively targets hair follicles.  Unlike other processes, by using this unique method will ensure that your skin is rapidly and evenly treated.  You may experience some redness and slight swelling, however, this should subside within a few hours.  There are three phases of hair growth, anagen, catagen and telogen.  Only hairs in the active growth phase, anagen, can be sucessfully treated.  Therefore, you may need to be treated 3 to 5 times at intervals of 3 to 8 weeks to achieve the desired results.  For more information on this procedure and our Sciton® laser, click on www.sciton.com

 

SkinTyte®

This non-invasive treatment utilizes the Sciton BBL (BroadBandLight) Laser that delivers a sequence of rapid gentle pulses to deeply heat dermal collagen.  As the collagen cools, it will contract and create a renewed collagen foundation leading to an increase in skin firmness and a more youthful appearance.  We recommend having a series of two to three treatments spaced a month apart, which is typical for most patients.  SkinTyte® treatments are safe for all skin types and can be performed on any area of the body where an improvement in skin firmness is desired.  View more information on www.sciton.com

 

Fat Grafting

This procedure uses the patient’s own fat, which is collected from an inconspicuous donor area.  It is then utilized to fill in grooves, folds, or areas of soft tissue depression.  The procedure is often used to minimize skin indentation, depressed scars, or deep wrinkles.  Fat grating is also being used to successfully enlarge thin lips.

Spider Veins

An estimated 80 million adults in the United States are affected by spider veins, also referred to as telangiectasia or broken capillaries.  They can appear anywhere on the body, most commonly found on the face and legs and look like red or purple sunbursts or web patterns.  Although spider veins are hereditary, pregnancy and hormonal changes are believed to be contributing factors.

We use two methods for removal of spider veins, one is called sclerotherapy.  It is a safe and effective procedure that is performed in our office with minimal discomfort.  A sclerosing (hardening) solution is injected with a very small needle into the vein which causes the vein to close up or collapse.  Generally, this treatment may require multiple treatment sessions.

The other procedure is with the use of our Laser. Laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive or non-surgical procedure to remove unwanted spider veins with no documented side effects.

This laser procedure uses small beams of light energy aimed at a targeted vein.  As a result of the heat produced by the laser, the vein will be treated and subsequently disappear.  This treatment may take 30 minutes to an hour depending on the size of the area and the number of veins treated.  Some patients may experience minor discomfort following the treatment, but we recommend you resume normal activities following the treatment.

We typically ask that you wear a compression bandage and/or support hose for a few days following the treatment.  Walking and moderate exercise may also help speed recovery.
