Injectables

Botox® Cosmetic

BOTOX® Cosmetic is the only product of its kind that is directed at the facial muscles that cause lines and wrinkles. It targets what are known as dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repeated muscular contractions, such as frowning and squinting. BOTOX® Cosmetic, an injectable treatment derived from a purified protein, works by relaxing the muscles that cause these dynamic wrinkles, giving your face a more relaxed and refreshed appearance. Best of all, regular use of this simple treatment will soften expression lines and help to stop the clock on the development or further deepening of lines. In addition, treatment is so quick and easy that you can often have it done over lunch. The effects usually last up to four months. After repeat treatments, the effects may begin to last longer

Juvederm™

Juvederm is a soft, replenishing, injectable gel made from hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally-occurring sugar found in your body. It works by giving volume to your skin to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and thinning skin. It also works to enhance and define lips, cheeks and jaw line. Hyaluronic acid injections have been shown to stimulate collagen production. Best of all, the results are instant, natural looking, there's no down time, and Juvederm has been demonstrated to be safe for all skin tones. The unique formulation of Juvederm provides results that last up to one year.

Restylane® and Perlane®

Our products Restylane and Perlane offer you a natural safe and long-lasting beauty lift. No other injectable implant can offer this concept. Restylane is intended for wrinkle correction and lip enhancements. Perlane can be used for shaping facial contours, such as cheeks and chin, correcting deep folds, and for volume augmentation of the lips. Impressions of beauty change over time, as do our faces as we age. One of the great advantages Restylane and Perlane is that they are long-lasting but not permanent. You always have the choice to continue or change the combination of treatments, and the procedure can be repeated as often as you like. You are always in charge of your looks.

Sculptra®

Sculptra® is an injectable product that restores and corrects the signs of facial fat loss by replacing lost volume. Sculptra® provides an increase in skin thickness, helping to create a more natural facial appearance in those with facial lipoatrophy. Sculptra® is an enduring treatment approved by the FDA for restoration and/or correction of the signs of facial fat loss, or lipoatrophy, in people with human immunodeficiency virus. It is the first FDA-approved product of its kind for this condition. Facial fat loss, or lipoatrophy, is the loss of fat beneath the skin, which can result in sunken cheeks, indentations, and hollow eyes. Sculptra® is a safe, synthetic, and biocompatible material that is injected below the surface of the skin in the area of fat loss. It provides a gradual and significant increase in skin thickness, improving the appearance of folds and sunken areas. No skin testing is required.

ALA Acne Treatment

Acne is a fact of life for many adolescents and adults. Approximately 90% of all adolescents and 25% of all adults experience acne at some point in their lives. ALA-PDT or aminolevulinic acid HCl PhotoDynamic Therapy is fast becoming a standard treatment for photorejuvenation, acne vulgaris, actinic keratoses (AK's), rosacea and sebaceous gland hyperplasia. ALA-PDT has become a therapy that is routinely used to enhance laser and light treatments. For our photodamage patients, more than 90% achieve outstanding results, and about 75% of the paients treated for sebaceous related conditions achieve greater than 75% improvement. Decreased oily skin and pore reduction is seen in most all patients, as well as, improvements in smoothness and texture. ALA-PDT is becoming a very popular procedure, producing incredible results.
