The
gradual development of facial wrinkles, whether fine surface
lines or deeper creases and folds is the classic early sign of
accumulated skin damage and inevitable aging.
Our
office offers injectables that (1) limit facial movements that
contribute to wrinkles and (2) smooth out, fill in and decrease
wrinkles.
Our
most popular injectable treatments involve very little or no
downtime. They are Botox®, Juvederm™ and Restylane®.
Botox®
• Treats facial wrinkles in the forehead, between the eyes
and in the “crows feet” areas of the face
• Botox® works
by weakening the muscles of facial expression
• Once the treated muscles
are relaxed, the pull of the muscle relaxes and the overlying skin flattens,
improving the appearance of the wrinkle
• Botox® can also be injected
into the armpits to treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
Juvederm™ & Restylane® are fillers used to
• smooth the areas of facial tissue where moderate to severe
wrinkles occur
• temporarily add volume to the skin and gives the appearance
of a smoother surface
• plump the lips and define the edges of the lips
• fill
in and reduce the depths of the nasolabial folds
• fill in depressed
acne scars
Our office also offers Collagen, Hylaform, Perlane and Radiesse.
