BOTOX®
You laugh. You frown.
You concentrate. And over time, those expressions leave
their mark upon your face. Until today, there wasn't a
lot you could do about it. But today there's BOTOX®
Cosmetic. A simple, non-surgical procedure that can dramatically
reduce even your toughest wrinkle within days. One ten-minute
treatment, a few tiny injections, relaxes the muscles
between your brows that cause lines to form. And keeps
them relaxed up to four months.
Restylane®
Approved by the FDA, Restylane
is designed to match your skin, smoothing wrinkles, sculpting
lips or shaping facial contours. With its unique ability
to bind with water, Restylane is able to perform for many
months in your skin. The most common areas for a Restylane
treatment are the marionette lines (lines from corners
of mouth to jawline) and the nasolabial folds (from the
root of the nose to the angle of your mouth). When used
for lips or facial contouring, Restylane will add shape
and volume to the area. Restylane is able to create volume
under your wrinkles, which are then lifted up and smoothed
out.
Chemical Peels
Cleopatra
bathed in sour milk to purify her skin … and the
art of the chemical peel was born.
The milder acids
– Glycolic, Lactic, Salicylic – peel away
the dead, dull layers of skin leaving visibly healthier,
glowing skin. These peels can be performed in ten minutes
without any downtime.
A maintenance program – a series of peels –
keeps your skin looking vibrant and helps reverse signs
of aging and environmental exposure. They can be used
in combination with most of the non-invasive treatments
and enhance the effects of Botox and fillers.
For repairing the effects of chronic acne or severe sun
exposure – dark, irregular pigmentation, and wrinkling
– a stronger peel (TCA, trichloroacetic acid) is
an alternative to laser resurfacing. TCA peels require
4 to 5 days of downtime and can be repeated in 3 to 6
months if necessary.
Chemical peels:
* Smooth out fine
surface wrinkles
* Remove superficial blemishes
* Correct pigment problems
* Can be used on neck or other body areas
* Can be used for light-skinned to olive-skinned individuals
* Sometimes can be used for darker-skinned patients
