What is Botox® and how
does it work?
BOTOX® Cosmetic
is a simple, nonsurgical, physician-administered treatment.
Botox releases contractions causing wrinkles by temporarily
paralyzing the muscle causing the contraction. It is the only
treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
One 10-minute treatment—a
few tiny injections—and within days there's a noticeable
improvement in moderate to severe wrinkles of the forehead and
around the eyes for up to 6 months. Results may vary.
Is
Botox® Cosmetic affordable?
When considering your facial aesthetic
options, BOTOX® Cosmetic is
quite affordable. According to an
American Society for Aesthetic Plastic
Surgery survey, BOTOX®
Cosmetic is one of the low-entry-cost
facial aesthetic procedures in the
United States. Like other
appearance-related investments, such as
hair coloring and cuts, teeth whitening,
and chemical peels, the cost must be
weighed relative to your expectations.

Juvéderm™
What is Juvéderm™
and how does it work?
Juvéderm™ is a smooth
consistency gel made of
hyaluronic acid—a naturally
occurring substance in your
skin that helps to add
volume and hydration. Your
healthcare professional
eases Juvéderm injectable
gel under the skin to
instantly restore your
skin's volume and smooth
away facial wrinkles and
folds, like your “smile
lines” or “parentheses” (nasolabial
folds—the creases that run
from the bottom of your nose
to the corners of your
mouth). Juvéderm is
indicated for injection into
the mid to deep dermis for
correction of moderate to
severe facial wrinkles and
folds (such as nasolabial
folds).
Juvéderm™ provides a
smooth, natural look and
feel—so everyone will notice
(but no one will know)! In
fact, studies show superior
results of Juvéderm compared
to a collagen-based dermal
filler.
With Juvéderm™the injection
process takes only about 15
minutes and results are
immediate. Plus, there's
minimal recovery or
downtime. So you can step
into your doctor's office
for treatment and step right
back into your life.
Is Juvéderm™
affordable?
Considering the cost of a
face lift or more invasive
treatment, Juvéderm™ is very
cost effective. With
results that can last up to
1 year you get long lasting
treatment that is far less
expensive than similar
products. Contact our
office for further
information.

augmentation.
