BOTOX® Cosmetic is commonly used to reduce or
eliminate the appearance of facial wrinkles. It is injected under the skin
into areas surrounding the eyes, forehead and mouth to smooth crow's feet,
frown and worry lines, and lines on the neck. Made from a purified protein,
BOTOX® injections block nerve impulses, weakening muscles to relax wrinkles
and give the face a rejuvenated look. BOTOX® may also be useful for migraine
headaches, excessive sweating, and eye and neck muscle spasms.

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein found in
the second layer of skin (the dermis) which “plumps up” the skin, joints,
bones and ligaments. Injections counteract the effects of gravity, sun
exposure and years of facial muscle movement by filling out sunken areas and
smoothing lines for a rejuvenated look.
Results may begin to fade in a few months,
depending on the patient’s age, genetic background, skin quality, lifestyle
and body site. Because of this, and because injections cannot improve severe
wrinkles or deep folds, the procedure is often combined with facial
resurfacing or plastic surgery for more a satisfying and longer-lasting
outcome.

Glycolic peels are the mildest form of chemical peels, which exfoliate the
surface layer of skin to expose the fresher, younger-looking skin beneath.

only ten or 15 minutes.
Results are visible immediately but repeated
treatments are necessary for full effect.

preferred Juvéderm™!

Labiaplasty is a cosmetic genital
surgical procedure that will reduce the size or change the shape of the
small lips on the outside of the vagina (the labia minora).
Many women are born with large or
irregular labia. Others develop this condition after childbirth or with
aging. The appearance of the enlarged labia can cause embarrassment with a
sexual partner or loss of self esteem. Some women just want to look
"prettier" like the women they see in magazines or in films.
Chronic labial irritation can
sometimes develop in women who wear tight clothing. Discomfort can occur
with sex, sports or other physical activities.
Labiaplasty can greatly enhance the
cosmetic appearance of the outer vagina giving many women greater confidence
and self esteem. Women whose labia become irritated and painful will often
find relief after surgery.
Top
Laser skin resurfacing, commonly called a laser peel,
removes the outer, damaged layer of skin to reveal a smoother, younger look.
Laser resurfacing can reduce the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, fine
lines, uneven pigmentation and superficial scarring, usually on the face. A
carbon dioxide (CO 2) laser beam of precisely focused light vaporizes the
surface skin and reveals the undamaged layer beneath.
Innovative technology for
the treatment of skin conditions associated with aging, active lifestyles,
acne and sun damage. Fine wrinkles, age spots, Rosacea, redness, solar
lentigines (freckles), Cafe’ Au Lait brown spots, birth marks, Port wine
stains, red spots (hemangiomas), enlarged pores, Poikiloderma, burn Erythema,
hyperpigmentation, birth mark flushing.

Whether for hygienic or cosmetic reasons, the
patient who is tired of temporary, often painful methods of removing
unwanted hair may welcome laser and intense pulsed light hair removal with
relief.
Lasers produce highly focused, intense beams of light that are
absorbed by dark pigments in the hair follicles beneath the skin’s surface
and converted to heat, destroying the follicles and preventing hair growth
for up to two years.
Multiple treatments are required for complete hair
removal -- the follicle must be “active” at the time of treatment, and not
all follicles are active at the same time. Treatments are needle-free and do
not require anesthesia.
Most patients feel nothing more than a slight sting
like the snap of a rubber band. It is possible that some hair will grow
back, though it is usually finer and lighter than what was originally
removed. There may also be some redness and swelling following the
procedure.

Microdermabrasion improves mild to moderate sun
damage, scarring, wrinkles and other superficial skin problems. A gentle
stream of tiny particles exfoliates the outer layer of skin and provides a
fresh, glowing, younger appearance.
The particles scrape away the surface layer of aging
or damaged skin, which is then brushed off with the microdermabrasion vacuum
tool with no need for anesthesia. Only a small amount of skin is removed, so
sensitive areas such as the face, chest, neck, arms and hands can be
treated. Results are comparable to a light chemical peel and should be
immediately visible.
This is a popular treatment
to obtain younger, smoother skin without any downtime. This treatment
is ideal for sun damaged skin, age spots, fine lines, blackheads and
whiteheads. This also includes a two week supply of medical grade skin care
products.

Known as The Skin Care
Makeup, the Jane Iredale line is so safe and beneficial to use that it is
recommended by Plastic Surgeons and Dermatologists throughout the world.
Jane's line is a highly-sophisticated blend of minerals
and pigments that are micro-pulverized, using proprietary technology and
processes to form microscopic flat crystals.
These crystals overlap
each other on the skin to form a filter that allows the skin to breathe and
function normally while still protecting it from air-borne pollutants.
The staying power of
the minerals is so great that they rarely need a touch-up during the day.
And because these silky-feeling powders are water resistant, they won't
crease or smear even during the most strenuous exercise.
These state-of-the-art minerals are available in so
many shades that there's one for every complexion no matter what the
ethnicity.

Restylane® is designed to smooth wrinkles,
sculpt lips and shape facial contours. It is a clear, synthetic gel made
with hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that is found throughout your
body. It carries little risk of allergic reaction.
The most common areas for
treatment are the glabellar lines (between the eyebrows) and the nasolabial
folds (from the root of the nose to the angle of your mouth). With its
unique ability to bind with water, Restylane remains in your skin for many
months.
Top
Scar revision is performed to reduce the
appearance of scars caused by injury or previous surgery. Scars are by
definition permanent, but surgery can narrow, fade and otherwise reduce the
appearance of severe or unattractive scarring, which is especially helpful
in areas of cosmetic importance such as the face and hands.
There are many
surgical methods of scar revision, only some of which may be appropriate for
a particular type of scar or its location.
These include surgical excision, skin grafts, flap
surgery and Z-plasty (repositioning a scar so that it aligns with the face
and is less noticeable).
The effectiveness of scar reduction depends on a
number of factors, including the nature of the injury, your body’s healing
mechanism, the size and depth of the wound, how much blood supplies the area
and the thickness and color of your skin.

Repeated exposure to sunlight, especially ultraviolet light, can cause a
variety of cosmetic and medical problems in our skin. These include
telangiectasia (red or purple “spider veins”), uneven pigmentation, lines
and wrinkles, thinning of skin, loss of skin elasticity, and melanoma and
other skin cancers.
The damage our skin
suffers from sunlight is cumulative and often gradual, so the effects appear
as we age and worsen with time. Adequate protection from the sun and
avoidance of other sources of ultraviolet light such as tanning salons are
an important part of preventing this damage. However, there are ways to
cosmetically improve damage that has already been suffered.
Injectable fillers such as BOTOX®, RESTYLANE, collagen and Hylaform fill out
lines and wrinkles to give the skin a fuller, smoother look and feel.
Phototherapy can reduce the appearance of uneven pigmentation, spider veins
and other vascular lesions. Laser treatments may also be effective for these
conditions.
Chemical peels and microdermabrasion remove the surface layer of
skin to expose a fresh, healthier, younger-looking layer beneath.

of both Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty. These two distinct surgeries can be

VISIA™ Digital Skin Analysis is an
exciting technological innovation that uses a multi-spectral imaging system
to identify problem areas of your complexion, allowing for a customized skin
treatment program that specifically targets these areas.

Analysis is the first diagnostic tool to provide clinical measurement of
surface and subsurface epidermal irregularities and pigment conditions.
VISIA’s photographic technology captures a clear, multi-dimensional image of
select facial areas, while examining the severity of various age-related
conditions such as:
Fine lines and
wrinkles, Hyperpigmentation (age/dark spots), Enlarged pores, Skin tone
evenness (color variation), Porphyrins (evidence of bacterial growth) and
Sun damage (UV spots).
