Facial Plastic Surgery:
Cosmetic facial plastic surgery can be broken down into two broad areas:
REFINING the appearance through profile enhancement
RENEWAL through rejuvenation procedure

REFINING: Profile enhancement is accomplished through rhinoplasty (nose surgery), mentoplasty (chin augmentation), cheek augmentation (implants), liposuction (facial fat removal), and cheiloplasty (lip augmentation).

RENEWAL: Rejuvenation procedures include rhydidectomy (browlift, facelift), cheeklift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), and chemical peel (wrinkle treatment).

Liposuction:
Tumescent liposuction is now recognized world wide as the technique permitting the greatest safety, the most rapid recovery, the least pain, and the best aesthetic results. The major distinction between tumescent liposuction and other techniques is in major patient comfort and quicker recovery. It is done purely by local anesthesia as opposed to general for most other techniques. Recovery time is brief, with many liposuction patients returning to work in a few days, and most back to full exercise in 4 days. Because there is almost no blood loss during Tumescent Liposuction, bruising, swelling, and pain are minimal post-op, and significant contour improvement is often apparent inside of two weeks.

Non-surgical procedures for the face and body
our aesthetic cosmetic treatments

Everybody gets lines and wrinkles at some point in their lives – caused by the breakdown of natural collagen and hyaluronan support layers that lie just beneath your skin. This deterioration is the result of external factors such as overexposure to the sun, smoking and environmental pollution, as well as the body’s natural ageing process.

Sophisticated cosmetic treatments that help combat the signs of ageing are gaining widespread popularity among both men and women. These facial rejuvenation procedures are generally quick and simple – most can be performed during your lunch hour. We use all the latest products and techniques to help enhance your facial contours, relax muscles to remove frown lines, reduce lines, wrinkles or blemishes or create beautiful lips.

Generally only requiring between thirty minutes and an hour to perform, we call these our ‘walk in, walk out’ treatments. Whatever your desire, we can create the beauty you thought only celebrities could afford – or the smoother, fresher look you thought you would no longer be able to achieve.

We also offer treatments that don’t require surgery for removing unsightly thread or varicose veins or alleviating problems with excessive sweating.

Chemical Peels
Skin Tone, Clarity and Color

Facial peels can improve sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, freckles, pigment changes and mild acne scarring. Peels improve the total skin appearance, not just a small defined area. Facial peels produce a generalized tightening of the skin providing smoother texture and increased elasticity.

Patients who may not be ready for a facelift or other facial surgery, are good candidates for peels. For patients who want total rejuvenation, peels also work very well in conjunction with facial surgery.

BOTOX
Originally developed to aid in a nerve-muscle disorder affecting the cervical-neck and shoulder area causing pinched nerves and over active muscle spasming and off balance tilted head positioning, botox was accidentally injected into areas showing deep lines and creases of skin. Remarkably, the deep lines and creases began to dissipate due to the effect of botox on relaxing the underlying muscles, thus removing the tension which had caused the outer skin to be held taut in unnatural and unforgiving poses resembling a permanent scowl or frown or look of tension, even where the person felt normal and OK.

In effect, botox relaxes the muscle, blocking neuro-chemical transmission past the site. The result? Muscles such as around the forehead brow area or cheekbone and mouth areas suddenly relax, resulting in a dramatic smoothening of the surface skin, with folds and creases and furrows reducing substantially after initial treatment. Naturally, due to body metabolic processes, the effect of botox injection can not be held permanently, therefore a treatment plan of successive injections every few months is required in order to sustain the results and appearance that men and women seek. Appearance, sense of self and vitality, professional appearance can all be transformed beneficially through the selective use of botox, which has proven to be a safe and effective.

RESTYLANE
A natural beauty lift

Impressions of beauty change with time – as do our faces as we age. With RESTYLANE, you can have a natural beauty lift with the body’s own material. RESTYLANE is a crystal-clear, non-animal, biodegradable gel based on a natural substance, called hyaluronic acid. The gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The result is instantaneous and produces a long-lasting, natural enhancement, gentle and safe to your skin
