Full Spectrum Nonsurgical Anti-Aging Treatments
Non-surgical treatments, or minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, are used to reduce the appearance of facial lines, remove unwanted hair, and even out skin pigmentation. Read on for more information about the non-surgical treatments we provide.
BotoxBotox Cosmetic is a popular non-surgical injection that temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases, crows feet near the eyes and thick bands in the neck. The toxin blocks the nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles while giving the skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance. |
MicrodermabrasionMicrodermabrasion is a skin-freshening technique that helps repair facial skin that takes a beating from the sun and the effects of aging. The plastic surgeon uses a device like a fine sandblaster to spray tiny crystals across the face, mixing gentle abrasion with suction to remove the dead, outer layer of skin. |
Chemical PeelChemical peel uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Common chemical formulas include alpha-hydroxy acid, glycolic acid, and others. |
SclerotherapySclerotherapy is an injection-based treatment that can dramatically reduce the size and appearance of visible spider and varicose veins on the legs. |
DermabrasionDermabrasion and dermaplaning help to refinish the skin's top layers through a method of controlled surgical scraping. The treatments soften the sharp edges of surface irregularities, giving the skin a smoother appearance. |
Skin CareTake Shape Plastic Surgery offers professional-grade skin care products that can shield your skin from sun damage as well as correct some forms of previous sun damage. Both in-office and at-home treatments are available. |
Injectable FillersSoft-tissue fillers, typically made of hyaluronic acid gel, can help fill in lines and creases, temporarily restoring a smoother, more youthful-looking appearance. When injected beneath the skin, these fillers plump up creased and sunken areas of the face. Wrinkle filler injections are quick and much of the time, suprisingly comfortable. |
Skin ManagementWhether you're planning a surgical or nonsurgical skin treatment, it's important that you find a doctor who has training and experience with a variety of skin-management techniques. You'll want a doctor who can give you the best possible single treatment or treatment combination. |
Laser Hair RemovalAs an alternative to regular plucking, shaving or waxing, Take Shape Plastic Surgery offers laser hair removal which can eliminate hair on many areas of the body and face for a smoother appearance. |
Permanent MakeupFor those who have tired of applying makeup daily, permanent makeup options are available for many areas of the face from the eyes to the lips and cheeks. |
Laser Skin ResurfacingIn laser skin resurfacing a laser is used to remove areas of damaged or wrinkled skin, layer by layer. The procedure is most commonly used to minimize the appearance of fine lines, especially around the mouth and the eyes. |
