BOTOX® Cosmetic Wrinkle Reduction Treatments
BOTOX treatments are a simple, safe, and effective way to improve facial expression lines (frown lines between the eyebrows, crow's feet at the outside corner of the eyes, forehead wrinkles, etc.). The lines that appear result from muscle movement, and the passage of time. As skin becomes less elastic over time the lines can be etched into the skin. "BOTOX Cosmetic" is the brand name for botulinum toxin type A. Botox cosmetic is the most popular physician-administered cosmetic procedure in the United States.

Chemical Peels
Chemical peels can be used to improve the appearance of:
- Fine lines
- Hyperpigmentation (skin discoloration or age spots)
- Enlarged pores due to an improper daily skincare regimen
- Light sun damage
- Light freckling
- Minimal scarring
There are three common variations of chemical peels classified as:
- Superficial depth
- Medium depth
- Deep depth
These classifications refer to the depth of the skin penetration caused by the peeling agent. Superficial peels treat the outer layer of skin called the epidermis and mildly stimulate collagen formation in the uppermost part of the deeper layer of skin called the dermis

JUVÉDERM™ Wrinkle Reduction Therapy
With time, exposure to the sun and other elements, skin components break down. The skin and subcutaneous tissues lose structure and volume. Unwelcome lines and wrinkles appear. One way to address this is with a product called Juvéderm™.
This injectable gel is a smooth gel filler placed under your skin to instantly smooth out those wrinkles or folds that look like parentheses along the side of your nose and mouth. Results aren't just instant, they're so smooth and natural, everyone will notice but no one will know.

Laser Hair Removal
It is now possible to remove unwanted hair using a variety of lasers. Most of these devices use very specific wavelengths of intense light. This light targets the dark color or pigment in the lower portion of the hair unit (bulb). When this pigment absorbs the energy in the light, heat is generated with the hair.
This heat can injure or destroy the hair without harming surrounding tissue. At any given time, all hairs on the body are in either a growing or resting phase. The average percentage of hairs in these two phases varies among the different areas on the skin.
