WRINKLE​ RELAXERS

BOTOX®​ ​Cosmetic

Lines and deep wrinkles in the face are caused by contractions of the delicate underlying facial muscles when you smile, laugh or frown. BOTOX®, a purified protein derivative, can effectively minimize, prevent, and reverse many of the lines between your eyebrows, across your forehead, and around your eyes.By blocking impulses from the nerves to the tiny facial muscles related to expression, BOTOX keeps the muscles relaxed, preventing contraction. Approved by the FDA, BOTOX is a safe and effective treatment for wrinkles and frown lines and has also been used for a variety of medical conditions including ophthalmological and neurological disorders. BOTOX can also help reduce chin dimples, necklines, and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the hands and armpits.

PLATELET​-RICH​ ​PLASMA (PRP)

PLATELET​-RICH​ ​PLASMA (PRP) FOR SKIN REJUVENATION

This​ ​treatment​ ​is​ ​used​ ​as​ ​a​ ​topical​ ​application​ ​following​ ​deep​ ​laser​ ​resurfacing​ or microneedling to enhance results and promote faster healing ​or​ ​as​ ​an​ ​alternative to​ ​fillers​ ​as​ ​an​ ​injection​ ​to​ ​help​ ​promote​ collagen stimulation.


PLATELET​-RICH​ ​PLASMA (PRP) FOR HAIR RESTORATION

PRP is an exciting non-surgical, therapeutic option for hair restoration for any patients experiencing hair loss. PRP is an injection treatment whereby a patient’s own blood is drawn and then placed in a sterile, single use concentration system. This process yields the richest, most productive form of PRP. The patient’s PRP is then injected into the scalp using a small needle. As the platelets organize, they release enzymes to promote healing and tissue responses including attracting stem cells and growth factors. This stimulates hair growth by prolonging the growing phase of the hair cycle. Results may vary based on genetics, pattern and amount of hair loss, age, and hormones.
