Botox and Restylane®

Everyone gets wrinkles as they grow older. Stress, weather, and smoking can speed up their development and make them much more obvious. Our center offers several options to decrease wrinkles and take years off your appearance. Injectable fillers—Botox, collagen, and natural fat—can fill creases and lines to make your skin appear smooth, healthy, and wrinkle-free. They can also add fullness to the lips and cheeks.

Botox
This purified protein toxin is injected into the skin to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and restore your youthful appearance quickly, safely and easily. Botox is considered one of the easiest ways to eliminate wrinkles. It is highly effective in removing or reducing wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. Botox works by temporarily paralyzing the facial muscles that cause wrinkles, forcing them to eventually relax. Botox is injected with a tiny needle, and the procedure is performed in minutes, allowing patients to return to their lives immediately.

Restylane®
Restylane® adds volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

What is the Restylane® Regime? It’s a way to ensure that you get the most from your Restylane treatments.

According to a clinical study, Restylane® continued to provide results up to 18 months after initial treatment, when patients returned for a follow-up treatment at 4.5 or 9 months.
