Botox and Fillers

Botox® Cosmetic

Most fine lines on the face are caused by the contraction of muscles beneath the skin, which affects the skin over time. BOTOX works by physiologically weakening the muscles that are directly related to facial wrinkles, leading to smoother skin. BOTOX injection is the #1 safe and effective treatment for dramatically reducing wrinkles in aging skin. BOTOX is highly effective for crow’s feet, frown lines, and worry lines. The procedure should be repeated every four months in order to retain the result.

Fillers

Injections of filling materials, such as Restylane®, Radiesse®, Juvederm® and Sculptra®, can help to reduce fine lines and furrows, restoring a smoother and more youthful appearance to your skin. Once injected, the filling material gently fills furrowed areas of the face and can also create fuller lips. The result is not permanent because the body will eventually metabolize the injected material. Results typically last four to six months, but can last longer depending on the material selected. A very small percentage of patients may experience an allergic reaction.

Restylane is the world’s most commonly used cosmetic dermal filler. It is made of hyaluronic acid, which naturally provides volume and fullness to the skin and can smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles.

Juvederm is a gel made of hyaluronic acid, which occurs naturally in healthy skin. It restores fullness to the skin, helping to ease away wrinkles and creases, including the smile lines that form to the sides of your mouth over time.

Sculptra is made of poly-L-lactic acid (a synthetic form of the natural material the muscles produce during exercise) and has been used in Europe since 1999 to restore areas of the face that have become indented or hollow, providing fuller volume.
