Enhancing Your Natural Beauty

Wrinkles Treatment:

Wrinkles are, unfortunately, something all of us acquire during our lifetimes. For most of us, aging, the sun, and smoking are the most common causes of wrinkles. But whatever their source, wrinkles age your skin and can make you look less youthful. Even the most minimal of treatments can make a difference.

 

Restylane® and JUVÉDERM®

Restylane® and JUVÉDERM® are made of hyaluronic acid, a highly absorbent, naturally-occurring material that provides volume and fullness to the skin by binding many times its own weight in water. Restylane® and JUVÉDERM® are free of animal proteins, so there is no risk of animal-based disease transmissions or allergic reactions, and you won't need to take an allergy test before receiving treatment. Their safety has been confirmed through dozens of studies worldwide.

Another means of reducing the appearance of wrinkles is through therapy with botulinum toxin (also known as BOTOX®). If you are interested in BOTOX®, please visit our BOTOX® therapy page.

For best results, facial wrinkles may require repeated treatments or combinations of treatments. The benefits of wrinkle treatments may be expanded when combined with a facelift, browlift, or laser skin resurfacing.

Post Treatment

In comparison to other facial cosmetic surgical procedures, you can expect to spend much less time undergoing wrinkle treatment procedures and recovery time is minimal.
