Non-Surgical

Botox

Botox Cosmetic is a popular non-surgical injection that temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases, crows feet near the eyes and thick bands in the neck. The toxin blocks the nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles while giving the skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance.

Chemical Peel

Chemical peel is application of a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, large pores, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Common chemical formulas include alpha-hydroxy acids beta-hydroxy acids.

Injectable Fillers

Soft-tissue fillers, typically made of collagen, hyaluronic acid, or fat, can help fill in lines and creases, temporarily restoring a smoother, more youthful-looking appearance. When injected beneath the skin, these fillers plump up creased and sunken areas of the face. Wrinkle filler injections are quick and much of the time, suprisingly comfortable.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a skin-freshening technique that helps repair facial skin that takes a beating from the sun and the effects of aging. The aesthetician uses a device like a fine sandblaster to spray tiny crystals across the face, mixing gentle abrasion with suction to remove the dead, outer layer of skin.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

In laser skin resurfacing a laser is used to remove areas of damaged or wrinkled skin, layer by layer. The procedure is most commonly used to minimize the appearance of fine lines, especially around the mouth and the eyes.

Port Wine Stain

Dark red port-wine birthmarks are typically treated with a series of laser treatments. Other birthmarks such as brown patches or red spots, also referred to as hemangiomas, may also be treated with a laser or surgically.

Skin Management

Whether you're planning a surgical or nonsurgical skin treatment, it's important that you find a doctor who has training and experience with a variety of skin-management techniques. You'll want a doctor who can give you the best possible single treatment or treatment combination.
