BOTOX and Dermal Fillers Cosmetic Procedures

BOTOX is a safe and effective way of treating aging skin. It works by physiologically weakening facial muscles, blocking impulses from the nerves to the facial muscles, relaxing the skin and resulting in a smooth unwrinkled look. The treatment takes 3 days to take effect and lasts for 4-6 months.  When it begins to wear off the wrinkles begin to reappear, but they may not be as deep as before. It usually takes 3 injections per year to maintain the smooth youthful appearance. It works well with wrinkles in the upper face.  It does not replace facelift or other surgical procedures.

Dermal Fillers. We also offer Captique dermal filler injections.  Dermal filler adds volume lost with aging process, temporarily smoothing facial lines and wrinkles. It is a newest FDA approved non-animal dermal filler.  It is recommended for nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines (lip corners), and lip border for lip augmentation.

Initial consultation with a doctor will help you identify your needs and goals, and develop individual plan of treatment. The $30 consultation fee is waived if you schedule a treatment.  Nonrefundable deposit of $100 will be required to order your medication.  This amount will be fully credited to your treatment fee at the time of injection. Injections are performed by specially trained Board Certified physicians.

 Cosmetic Hair Removal

LHE - Light Based Hair Removal. LHE low energy levels create an ultra-safe treatment that requires minimal if any preparation or skin cooling. The number of monthly treatments depends on the targeted area, with most areas requiring 5–8 sessions for effective and lasting hair removal.

LHE targets the melanin in the hair shaft, and then converts light to heat inside the follicle. The heat damages the bulge and the root, inhibiting and often preventing future hair growth. To bring down the energy levels and increase safety, LHE relies on the synergetic relationship between Light and Heat to create an efficient photo thermal technique. With its unique light and heat combination, LHE maximizes the heat effect on the follicle without damaging the surrounding tissue. Click here to see how it works...

Electrolysis Hair Removal. We also offer Electrolysis hair removal by certified Electrologist. Each individual hair is treated by inserting a tiny surgical probe into the hair follicle and directing a split second impulse of energy down to the hair root. The hair is then lifted out (not pulled out). This is repeated over and over until the desired area is cleared.

Microdermabrasion is the latest scientific method of treatment for damaged skin. The term microdermabrasion refers to micronized (tiny) crystals derived from minerals. The technician uses an instrument to direct a stream of these fine crystals onto the skin. These crystals are used to abrade the skin thereby removing dead and flaking skin cells. As this is being done, a small vacuum removes the crystals along with the upper layer of skin. As a result, the production of new skin cells and collagen is being stimulated. Each treatment takes approximately one half hour to complete, and no anesthesia is required.

Many unsightly surface conditions can be improved with this procedure. They include removal of age sports, blackheads, whiteheads and fine lines around the eyes, lips and neck. Dull and rough textured skin can be improved. In addition, the treatment can be used to reduce mild scarring and scaly skin lesions.

Microdermabrasion has been successfully performed on every type and color of skin.

Patients are advised to eliminate tanning, chemical peel, waxing or collagen injections for two weeks prior to having a microdermabrasion treatment.

The number of treatments depends on the size, depth and type of skin problem the patient has. The microdermabrasion treatment is repeated every 7 to 10 days for up to 12 treatments. Additional monthly treatments may be recommended for maintenance purposes.

The skin will be noticeably improved after the first treatment. Age sports, file lines and wrinkles will be diminished, and the skin will take on a more radiant glow. Acne scars will become less noticeable and many report fresher, younger looking skin. With microdermabrasion, some moisture will be lost;/ therefore, special cleansers and moisturizers wil be recommended for daily use.

There are several reasons to choose microdermabrasion over other techniques. Microdermabrasion requires less time and involves less discomfort. Recovery time is rapid and normal activities can be resumed immediately. Microdermabrasion is safe and effective on most parts of the body and can be used in conjunction with other procedures such as laser skin resurfacing and chemical peel.
