"Nothing beats the power of natural-looking beauty. This is why nonsurgical treatments with natural-looking results are a viable option."

THEY SAY BEAUTY is skin deep. If this is true, does it change the fact that everyone still wants to feel beautiful? Maybe your New Year held the same boring resolutions we all drop by February: lose weight, eat better, run every day, etc. Why not try something different--make a "spring" resolution that gets you proven results that last all year long, and into next year as well. Give yourself a "real" makeover without appearing "made over," but looking refreshed and restored.

Most people do not realize they can get results without the trauma of surgery or undergoing a major anesthetic--or taking off work for a long recovery time.

These types of "dynamic" lines are difficult because they can cause you to feel self-conscious during moments of emotional expression.

There are facial neuromodulators that can reduce these dynamic wrinkles. Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin all are effective neuromodulators. They relax the muscles in your face, which keep them from contracting into visible wrinkles. By this process, your skin and face can look more youthful and clear.

After relaxing wrinkles in the upper face, address the lower face with dermal fillers. There are two types: deep and superficial. Deep ones will lift and contour areas that have less volume. An area may need a lighter filler to correct fine wrinkles or help augment lips.

Depending on what is needed will influence what filler you choose. You can reduce wrinkles, restore facial volume, diminish fine lines...
