BOTOX® Cosmetic

No matter how well skin is preserved and pampered, everyone eventually develops facial wrinkles. Fortunately, there are a number of options available to remove the lines that accompany aging. BOTOX® Cosmetic is perhaps the easiest of these options. BOTOX® Cosmetic is an extremely quick approach to softening or removing the natural wrinkles between the eyes (frown lines), at the corners of the eyes (crow's feet), on the forehead, or at the base of the nose (glabellar frown lines).

Collagen

When we are young, our skin is soft and elastic, free from the facial lines and tissue damage caused by time, injury, and disease. This youthful looking skin is due, in a large part, to collagen, the fibrous protein that forms the underlying support layer beneath the skin. Over time, the skin's network of collagen begins to weaken, causing the skin to lose its elasticity. Collagen injections have been used for decades to replenish the skin's suppleness and help maintain its youthful appearance. It is a safe, nonsurgical treatment that can smooth out facial lines and scars, as well as improve the look of specific parts of the body.

Chemical Peel

A chemical peel is a procedure that uses a solution to peel away wrinkled, blemished, unevenly pigmented, or sun damaged facial skin. The procedure is non-invasive and poses little risk. The result is softer, smoother, and more youthful looking skin.

Cosmetic Laser Surgery

Laser skin resurfacing is a common procedure that can be used to remove wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and other signs of aging. The laser carefully burns away the top layer of damaged skin, revealing smoother, healthier skin below. Advantages of laser surgery include greater accuracy, little or no bleeding, and shortened recovery time. In addition, laser surgery can remove birthmarks and skin growths.

Scar Revision and Therapy

Many factors determine the severity of scarring such as the size of a wound, its depth, the blood supply to the area, and skin tone. No surgeon can completely remove a scar, but the appearance of most scars can be greatly improved. Scar revision is a surgical procedure used to improve the appearance of scars that do not respond to cortisone drugs, steroids, or skin gels.

Torn Earlobe
