Performed in the office (like facial resurfacing and laser hair removal), Botulinum Toxin (BOTOX® Cosmetic) and filler injections (such as JUVÉDERM™ Injectable Gel) can be done with little to no down time. Effects from BOTOX® Cosmetic can be seen within days and last approximately 4 months. Dr. Westreich uses individualized treatments that result in more natural results than standard treatment patterns.
Volume fillers, such as Restylane® and Juvederm ® are used for recontouring lips and softening deep lines between the eyebrows, shadows beneath the eyes, and the nasolabial folds (smile lines). Results are immediate and may last 6-12 months.
Facial resurfacing is useful for fine wrinkling, especially below the eyelids, around the lips, and in the temporal region. Depending on depth of treatment, healing times may vary.
Each age-intervention technique has a specific indication and should be discussed with Dr. Westreich at the time of consultation.
