Botox
Q Can I get Botox for nasiolabial folds or is filler better? (photo)
A Botox does not treat this area, but filler is a great option! Nasolabial fold (and cheek) filler can be used to lift and treat these folds, which occur with aging and volume loss in the cheek area. Filler injections will make the area look smoother and younger, with less of a demarcation between the cheeks and the lower face.

PRP Injections
Q Would PRP microneedling help my skin? (photos)
A Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that minimizes the signs of aging and improves the tone and texture of your facial skin. Some doctors in the medical community regard microneedling as the most powerful way to stop the signs of aging and prevent new lines and wrinkles. Microneedling by itself is a wonderful way to heal your skin from the inner layers outward, and, combined with platelet-rich plasma, it works even faster.
PRP therapy is platelets from your own blood that contain a wealth of growth factors that stimulate healing and generate new, healthy tissue. With PRP, you will get the benefits of tighter, smoother skin faster than with microneedling alone. Your skin is full of tiny puncture wounds immediately following a treatment, it’s the optimal time to apply PRP to your skin’s surface.

Botox for Gummy Smile
Q Would Botox fix a gummy smile and lips that turn down at the corners? (photos)
A A gummy smile can easily and effectively be treated with Botox. It can relax the muscles in the upper lip and limit the rise of the upper lip when smiling. Two or more units of Botox are injected in the area between the nose and upper lip to reduce the appearance of any “gummy” smile, creating a more appealing and natural smile.
Botox® can also be placed into the muscle that acts to pull the corners of the mouth down, if done in combination with filler this will help to raise the corners of the mouth, but also works to make filler last longer in this area.

A Both HALO™ and BBL™ treatments are minimally invasive procedures that produce customizable results. These treatments can be performed on the same day in order to better address texture, fine lines or discoloration concerns. The combined treatments build off of each other to produce results including smoother skin tone and texture.
