Botox®:  For almost a decade, Botox® has remained the most popular non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment in America.  The dramatic results show why Botox® retains its popularity-- it has been shown to safely minimize wrinkles by up to 80%. While wrinkle reduction is the primary benefit of Botox® injections, they can achieve a wide range of aesthetic goals.  Botox® injection treatments can be performed in our comfortable physician office in about 20 minutes, and do not require any anesthesia or post-procedure downtime. You will be amazed at the results you see within the first week to ten days, typically, after your treatment. 

Dysport®:  Dysport® is also a neurotoxin very similar to Botox®, however one difference between Dysport® and Botox® is its molecular weight. Dysport’s proteins have a lower molecular mass, resulting in a greater chance of diffusion. Dysport’s higher diffusion rate  allows it to spread faster and to a larger coverage area, so it’s best for the forehead, while Botox’s lower diffusion rate makes it better for smaller wrinkles. Some evidence suggests Dysport® results are seen a few days sooner than Botox® and last longer.  Recent studies by Galderma, the makers of Dysport, have shown that the neurotoxin may last up to five months and that 95% of 120 individuals reported “high satisfaction” with just two treatments per year.  “Patients report that Dysport tends to feel ‘less tight’ and slightly more ‘flexible’ than Botox.

Xeomin®: One of the biggest differences between Xeomin® and Botox® is that it lacks the stabilizing proteins, which means it doesn’t require refrigeration before opening. Theoretically, patients are less likely to develop antibodies to Xeomin®, due to lack of attached proteins.  So if a patient is starting to notice that Botox isn’t working for them anymore, Xeomin® may be a good option. The lack of additional proteins is also why Xeomin® is considered to be a more “natural” alternative to Botox® and Dysport®.  While it’s true that the Xeomin molecule is technically more pure (as defined by not having the ancillary ingredient), it still functions the same as other neuromodulators.

Juvéderm: The Juvéderm Collection is one of the most well-known lines of FDA-approved injectable fillers.  Manufactured by Allergan, Juvéderm fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a molecule found naturally in the skin that has a unique capacity to attract and retain moisture.  It can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, which helps skin look plump, supple, and youthful.  Injected beneath the skin, these gel-like fillers instantly help smooth fine lines and wrinkles, soften creases, enhance contours, and restore volume. Dermal fillers stimulate the body’s natural collagen production in areas of the face where it’s injected, improving skin firmness and elasticity.

Restylane:  Also hyaluronic acid dermal fillers with a range of formulas that can target different areas of the face, including the cheeks, eyes, and mouth. The biggest difference between Restylane and Juvéderm is the texture.  Restylane Kysse is FDA-approved for augmenting lips and treating upper perioral rhytids--the lip wrinkles sometimes called smoker’s lines. 

Collagen induction therapy, also known as microneedling, is a cosmetic procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny sterile needles.  Prior to treatment, we will apply a topical numbing agent. Most microneedling patients report feeling little to no pain at all once a topical numbing agent has been applied.  Procedures last as little as 30 minutes and can be spaced up to four weeks apart to target and improve the look of facial acnes scars in adults for smoother, brighter, healthier-looking skin.

Microneedling results vary based on the area being treated, the needle depth chosen and your individual skin health. It’s typical for a series of 4-5 treatments to be scheduled throughout the year to address most aesthetic skin concerns involving acne scarring.  Microneedling treatments are administered year-round but are typically less frequent during summer months, when sun exposure is high and free-radical damage prevalent.

Cellenis® Derma Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a state-of-the-art treatment that enlists the body’s natural healing ability for a highly effective, non-surgical, and minimally invasive approach to skin rejuvenation. 

A comprehensive consultation with a qualified practitioner is essential. They will assess your skin, review your medical history, and listen carefully to your specific concerns and expectations to create a customized Cellenis® Derma PRP treatment plan.

A small blood sample is drawn from the patient.

The blood is processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelets and growth factors used to create the PRP solution.

The target area is cleansed, and a local anesthetic is often applied to enhance comfort during the procedure.

Cellenis® PRP can be applied topically or subcutaneously. However, this treatment is typically injected directly into the target area or applied with microneedling to enhance absorption.

PRP treatments typically involve minimal downtime, allowing patients to resume normal activities shortly after the procedure.  Results emerge gradually as the body’s natural regenerative processes take effect. A series of treatments may be recommended for ideal outcomes.

• Safe, effective, and free from the risk of allergic reactions.
• Versatile enough to address a range of cosmetic concerns, from facial rejuvenation to hair restoration.
• Provides natural-looking and long-lasting results.
• Minimally invasive procedure with few, if any, associated risks and discomfort.

Adopting a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and sun protection, complements the effects of PRP and contributes to overall skin wellness.
