Wrinkles, fine lines, loss of volume in the face can all be improved with the expert placement of injectable dermal fillers and neuromodulators.
Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau and Xeomin are neuromodulators which soften wrinkles and fine lines by relaxing muscle groups. They are especially effective at softening frown lines. One procedure on the forehead is demonstrated in this video.
Something important to keep in mind – the effect of the neuromodulator, no matter the brand, is NOT instant. Botox can take up to two weeks for the correction to be seen. Dysport, Jeuveau and Xeomin are a little quicker, two to five days.
Jeuveau is the newest neurotoxin, the first to be introduced in nearly a decade. It’s important to note, the dosing units are not the same as, or comparable to, any other botulinum.
Aging is part of life, and as the years pass, natural supporting structures such as collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin are diminished – resulting lines, wrinkles and jowls. Fillers are designed to restore volume support and suppleness.
We offer tried and true fillers such as Belotero Balance, Juvéderm, Juvéderm Voluma, Radiesse, Restylane, Restylane Lyft, Restylane Silk and Sculptra, as well as the “next generation” fillers like Restylane Defyne, Restylane Refyne and Juvéderm Vollure. Some next generation products are more flexible so you don’t look puffy or stiff. Others last longer so you don’t have to come in as often for touch ups.

The natural results are clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients. In addition, Radiesse was recently approved by the FDA for use in the hands to reduce the prominence of large veins and tendons.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)
It’s an injectable made from your blood! PRP speeds healing and has been used for years to help athletes recover from injuries and to repair tendons and joints. For the face, PRP can be used in addition to fillers to stimulate collagen production to improve the tone and texture of the skin. A small amount of your blood is drawn and then with a centrifuge, the platelet rich plasma is extracted. After the injections of the PRP into your face, you may experience some redness, a little swelling or even bruising for a few days. For optimum results, at least three treatments are recommended.
