Volume Loss - Dynamic Lines - Surface Irregularities - Skin Laxity - Excess Hair
Cosmetic concerns are variable from patient to patient. Everyone has an idea of what they might like to improve in their appearance. For this reason, we recommend the combination of treatments that is right for you.
Our approach is to identify the individual problems which may lead to dissatisfaction with your appearance:
- Volume Loss. This is a normal consequence of ageing and is often more exaggerated in people who are physically fit and not overweight. Manifestations can be hollow cheeks, prominent skin folds above and below the mouth, a perception of jowls (often due to a loss of volume as well as laxity), among others. We are specialists in the administration of fillers to correct these issues. The choice of filling material is important. We will recommend what we think is best for you based on your present problem and your past experience.
The fillers we use are exclusively FDA-approved and include Restylane®, Juvéderm™, Sculptra™, Radiesse™, and others.
- Dynamic Lines. These are facial lines which are due to years of habitual muscular movement. Typical areas of involvement are the glabella (between the eyebrows), forehead, around the eyes, below the mouth, and some areas of the throat. Treating these lines is best accomplished non-surgically by BOTOX®.
- Surface Irregularities. Whether these are from pigmented spots, prominent blood vessels, keratoses, spider veins, or acne scarring we can address them by a variety of methods including laser and light-based treatments including IPL, Iriderm™ diode laser, infrared Smoothbeam™ Laser, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels. This includes problems on the hands, face, chest or virtually anywhere on the skin.
- Skin Laxity. The effects of ageing, sun exposure (even in the remote past), pregnancy, and weight loss can all lead to loose, "sagging" skin. Common areas for this to occur are the jawline, neck, around the mouth, eyelids, abdomen, arms, buttocks, knees, and thighs. Thermage™ is an exciting technique designed to address these issues, usually in a single session with improvement developing over 2-20 weeks. Mild sedation is sometimes required but downtime is minimal.
- Excess hair. Laser hair removal on any body part is performed in our offices. Dark hair and light skin are features which give the best results, but progressive improvement in most patients is the rule. We use the latest Lumenis Diode Laser.
