Botox is used to safely and effectively improve the appearance of frown lines, forehead creases, and “crow’s feet” by relaxing the underlying muscles. Botox is a remarkable treatment for dynamic wrinkles resulting from repeated use of facial muscles. Botox injections are safe and have been approved by the FDA for use in neurological disorders for over 30 years. Botox actually prevents wrinkles from appearing by relaxing the underlying muscles so they do not contract. Botox blocks impulses from nerve to the tiny facial muscles that are related to expression lines. After treatment, the overlying skin remains smooth and unwrinkled while the untreated facial muscles contract in a normal fashion, allowing your normal facial expression to be unaffected. There is zero recovery time and little discomfort. Treatment with Botox typically lasts about 3 to 4 months; repeated treatments can often be spaced farther apart. For more information, visit: www.botoxcosmetic.com BOTOX FOR HYPERHIDROSIS Botox is FDA-approved for excessive underarm sweating that is not adequately managed with topical agents. BOTOX® treatment helps control this condition by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands don't receive chemical signals, the excessive sweating stops. For more information, visit: www.botoxseveresweating.com Back to Top
RESTYLANE & PERLANE DERMAL FILLERSRestylane and Perlane are collagen alternatives that have been used in Europe for years. They contain hyaluronic acid in the form of a crystal-clear gel which is injected into the skin to lift the lip or fill wrinkles and folds. Once injected into the skin, it creates volume, resulting in a healthy and vital appearance. Fine lines on the upper and lower lip that are not severe enough to require laser resurfacing fill nicely with Restylane. Deeper wrinkles and folds in the cheek areas (nasolabial, melolabial, and lines at the corners of the mouth) respond well to both Restylane and Perlane. These fillers can also be used to help contour lips, soften pouty downturned corners of the lips, and have up to twice the longevity of standard collagen implant treatments. Since Restylane and Perlane are naturally synthesized products that are part of the normal structure of the deep skin and not extracted from animals, there is no risk of allergic reaction. Following injections, normal activities can be resumed immediately. Treatment typically lasts about 6-9 months. For more information: www.restylaneusa.com Back to Top

GLYCOLIC ACID PEELApplication of a glycolic peel stimulates cell turnover and resurfaces skin. This facial treatment promotes underlying collagen production to reduce fine lines and evens out the texture and pigmentation of your skin. This treatment is especially effective for controlling acne, reducing dark spots, and creating a more youthful glow. Usually, 3-4 peels are recommended and are performed in series every 2-4 weeks. KELOID AND SCAR REVISION A keloid is a thick scar resulting from an overgrowth of tissue at the site of a healed skin injury. A keloid scar is benign, non-contagious, and usually accompanied by itchiness, pain, and changes in texture. Similarly, hypertrophic scars are raised, thickened scars that do not grow beyond the boundaries of the original wound. Treatment of keloids and hypertrophic scars may include one or more of the following: injections, surgical excision, cryosurgery, radiation, or topical medication. SPLIT EARLOBE REPAIRPlastic surgery to repair a torn earlobe is a frequent occurrence. Piercing an earlobe puts it at risk to tear. The size, style, and weight of an earring can contribute to the stretching of the earlobe opening. Large earrings that dangle are caught on clothing or grasped by a child. The result may be a partially or completely torn earlobe. Repair of a torn earlobe occurs in the office setting using a local anesthetic. The procedure consists of "freshening" the edges of the split and placement of sutures to complete the repair of the earlobe.
