BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic injections are a safe and effective way to diminish
unwanted facial wrinkles such as frown lines and crow's feet.
This non-surgical method of reducing the signs of aging on
the face is FDA approved.
Dysport®
Prescription Dysport is an injection used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years. Dysport is a purified formulation that has been shown to deliver temporary improvements in moderate to severe frown lines, even with repeat treatments. So, the effect of repeat treatment with Dysport may be comparable to your first use.
Restylane®, Perlane®
Restylane is a crystal-clear, non-animal, biodegradable gel based on a natural substance, hyaluronic acid. The result is instantaneous and produces a long-lasting, natural enhancement, gentle and safe to your skin. No test required. Treat unwanted facial wrinkles, lines and scars and replenish your skin's collagen layer to smooth lines, wrinkles and add definition.
The addition of 0.3% Lidocaine to Restylane and Perlane was approved in January 2010 by the FDA. Patients will appreciate the timesaving involved when numbing prior to the filler injection may no longer be necessary. The price point for both products remains the same.

Juvederm®
As we age, our skin changes. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. But, with JUVÉDERM® injectable gel, you don't have to just sit back and let it happen! JUVÉDERM® is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. Your healthcare professional eases JUVÉDERM® injectable gel under the skin to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" or "parentheses" (naso-labial folds - the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).
Sculptra®Aesthetic
Recently approved by FDA for treatment of nasolabial wrinkles and folds. A treatment approach that gradually replaces lost collagen for a natural looking appearance. In the past, lines and wrinkles were filled in for more immediate results. Sculptra™Aesthetic is less obvious and more gradual, thus creating more subtle results that can last up to 2 years. Studies show that best results are achieved after 3 treatments. Sculptra™Aesthetic treatments are only available from Dermatologists and Plastic Surgeons who have been specifically trained in the Sculptra injection technique. Please discuss with your physician to find out how Sculptra™Aesthetic may benefit you.
Sclerotherapy
Unwanted blood vessels on the legs can be injected with sclerosing solution that renders the vessel barely noticeable or invisible. This popular procedure may require multiple treatments.
