SMOOTHING SERUM

SMOOTHING SERUM

Smoothing Serum (also known as Botox, Neuromodulators, Neurotoxins, Anti-Wrinkle) injections eliminate, remove and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face or body by weakening targeted muscles and causing them to relax. The result is a more rested, rejuvenated look.

Our Smoothing Serum treatments eliminate, remove, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face or body by weakening targeted muscles and causing them to relax.As we get older, our skin naturally becomes less elastic and more fragile. In addition to the natural aging process, sun exposure, lifestyle, stress, genetics, and poor skin care can contribute to wrinkles. An injection of the neuromodulator Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau (Botulinum Toxin) in targeted areas of the face or body relaxes the muscle beneath the wrinkle, allowing the skin to lie silky and smooth. Smoothing Serum treatment results in a natural, brightened appearance.

RECOMMENDED USE

Smoothing Serums prevent, reduce and remove the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face and body. They can also be used for sweating in overactive areas such as armpits, hands, and feet; as well for reducing discomfort in areas of muscle spasticity such as frontal migraines, neck pain, and back pain.

Smoothing Serum Injections can safely and successfully treat wrinkles that are caused by muscular movement. It takes 24-72 hours for the serum to take effect, reflecting the time needed for the neuromodulator to disrupt the synaptosomal process. The final result of the Smoothing Serum treatment appears on day 10 post-treatment.

 

Applications of Smoothing Serum include:

  • forehead wrinkles
  • eyebrow lift (droopy eyebrows)
  • frown lines or “11’s” (vertical creases between the eyebrows)
  • crow’s feet (wrinkles around the eyes)
  • bunny lines (lines on the side of the nose)
  • gummy smiles (reduces appearance of gums when smiling)
  • grinding and clenching of the teeth (TMJ)
  • jaw reshaping for a slimmer jawline
  • treatment for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating of armpits, palms and feet)
  • smile lift (drooping corners of the mouth)
  • pebble chin (dimples and creases on chin)
  • prominent neck bands
  • lip lines (smoker’s lines)
  • migraines
  • nose tip lift (drooping nose)
  • lines beneath the eyes
  • facial asymmetry from Bell’s Palsy
  • nasal flaring
  • horizontal neck lines
  • facial twitching (eye twitching, blepharospasm)
  • neck & back pain (cervical dystonia, thoracic dystonia, lumbar dystonia)
  • facelift (Nefertiti Lift)
  • rosacea (blotchy reddening of the skin)

 

Results typically last 3 to 5 months depending on the individual and the area being treated. Regularly scheduled treatments will prevent the wrinkles from returning to full strength and improve long-term results, virtually reversing the aging process. If treatments are discontinued the targeted muscles may regain their strength and return to pre-treatment appearance.

 

PRE-TREATMENT CARE

To reduce the risk of bruising, do not take any anti-inflammatory or blood thinning medications for 1 week before the Smoothing Serum treatment. This includes Aspirin, Motrin, Ibuprofen, Advil, Antihistamine Medications, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Gingko Biloba, St. John’s Wort, and Garlic supplements. Avoid consuming alcohol the night prior to Smoothing Serum treatment.
Do not schedule injections before an event. Allow at least 2 weeks before any major event in case of any bruising or swelling occurs.

 

POST-TREATMENT CARE

  • Do NOT rub or manipulate the area that has been injected with the Smoothing Serum solution. This can result in migration from the targeted muscle.
  • DO exercise the treated muscles for 1-2 hours after the procedure. (e.g. practice frowning, furrowing, raising eyebrows, squinting, etc). This helps the solution bind to the targeted area, and will lengthen the duration of the result.
  • Stay in an upward vertical position following your treatment. DO NOT lie flat or move into a forward bending position for 2 hours after the procedure. Lying down can cause the solution to migrate from the targeted muscle and lead to complications.
  • Although some patients may experience treatment effect in 24-72 hours, most patients do not notice full treatment effect for 7-14 days following treatment.
  • Although extremely rare, allergic reactions to the Smoothing Serum can occur. If you experience EXTREME skin redness, swelling or rash, of SEVERELY swollen or puffy eyes, or SEVERE headache, you may be allergic to or have developed antibodies to the serum from previous treatment. You MUST call the office immediately to be seen.
  • No straining, heavy lifting or vigorous exercise for 24 hours post injection. It takes the serum approximately 2 hours to bind itself to the nerve to start working; we do not want to increase circulation to the injected area which can result in the migration or “washing away” of the product.
  • The art of injecting is not an exact science. On rare occasions, the desired effect may not be achieved. This simply means that your muscle is stronger than the average muscle and you require additional units.
  • After Smoothing Serum treatment, if you have questions, concerns, or experience any problems, please call our office at 212.517.1855.

 

You deserve to look and feel great about yourself. Taking care of your personal appearance gives you a healthy boost of self confidence. If wrinkles, fine lines, and looking tired are bringing you down, you may want to consider trying Botox injections to give you back the confidence you need. Many people from all walks of life in New York City are getting non-surgical cosmetic treatments like Botox to help them put their best face forward.

 

What is Botox?

Botox is an injectable neuromodulator that is used in a variety of non-surgical applications. It has been proven to be safe and effective in many clinical studies. Botox in NYC should be injected by a certified and experienced medical professional.

 

Botox temporarily prevents muscles from moving, which causes the application area to appear smoother, younger, rested, and relaxed. The effects of Botox in NYC are natural looking and beautiful.

 

Youthful Looking Skin

As we age, our skin becomes less elastic and we notice wrinkles, fine lines and sagging. Genetics, sun damage, stress, and poor skin care can all contribute to how quickly our skin ages. In order to stay looking as young as they feel at heart, many people opt for non-surgical skin smoothing injections like Botox in NYC to combat these visible signs of aging. It gives them an extra boost of self-confidence that helps them to get out there and achieve their goals.

 

Botox injections for wrinkle reduction can be used in a variety of areas, but they are especially popular around the eyes, forehead, and mouth. Deep furrows in the brow, crow’s feet around the eyes and deep wrinkling around the mouth can be smoothed in one appointment. Clients are often shocked at how great they look after their first Botox in NYC session. Botox injections allow them to look naturally youthful and well-rested.

 

Other Uses

Botox in NYC is not only used for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It is also proven to help with urinary incontinence, involuntary muscle contractions, and muscle pain. Many people also use Botox to manage excessive sweating, chronic migraines, and TMJ pain.

 

What to Expect

Botox injections are quick, simple and require no recovery time. A very small needle is used to inject into the targeted areas. You will be able to return to your normal activities immediately after your appointment, but you should refrain from exercising or rubbing the area for 24 hours. You can expect to see the results of your injection within four to 10 days.

 

Botox injections should be repeated every three to five months, or when the effects have worn off, but you can expect beautiful results without the long-term commitment or painful recovery periods of permanent plastic surgery.

Threadlifting Icon

THREADLIFTING

THREADLIFTING

Threads lift and tighten the face and body using sutures which stimulate collagen production and improve skin condition. This non-surgical lift procedure to combat aging is an alternative to surgical facelifts that is more affordable, less invasive and has a greatly reduced recovery time.

Our thread lifting lifts and tightens the entire face and body with the placement of temporary sutures for a more youthful appearance.During a Threadlift, temporary sutures or threads are used to produce a subtle but visible “lift” in the skin. Instead of removing loose facial skin surgically, threads are inserted into the skin to create the effect of lifting and tightening of the face. This Threadlifting treatment produces subtle, visible changes by lifting the face by a few millimeters, resulting in a more natural look than facelift surgery.

RECOMMENDED USE

Threadlifting lifts and tightens the entire face and body with the placement of temporary sutures for a more youthful appearance. Combat aging with the thread’s incredible ability to stimulate collagen production for improved skin tone and firmness.

As we age, our bodies gradually produce less collagen, resulting in a loss of volume and strength that creates excess skin and wrinkles. The Threadlifting procedure helps combat aging by activating the body’s healing response with a surge of collagen to the suture-treated areas. This collagen provides ongoing and progressive rejuvenation to the facial tissues by helping to keep our skin strong, voluminous and supple.

 

Thread lifts are relatively non-invasive and thus, low risk. There is also little risk of scarring, severe bruising, bleeding or other complications. Threadlifting is best-suited for patients experiencing mild to moderate, rather than severe, signs of skin laxity.

 

The main indications for Threadlifting include:

  • Sagging neck
  • Neck lines
  • Wrinkles on décolletage
  • Body: sagging breasts, elbows, knees, upper arms, thighs, tummies and bottoms

 

The treatment effects are:

  • Skin rejuvenation
  • Smoothing wrinkles
  • Loose skin after diet
  • Skin Lightening
  • Increase skin volume
  • Lifting the skin

 

PRE-TREATMENT CARE

  • To reduce the risk of bruising, do not take any anti-inflammatory or blood thinning medications for 1 week before the Threadlifting treatment. This includes Aspirin, Motrin, Ibuprofen, Advil, Antihistamine Medications, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Gingko Biloba, St. John’s Wort, and Garlic supplements. Avoid consuming alcohol the night prior to Threadlifting treatment.
  • Do not schedule injections before an event. Allow at least 2 weeks before any major event in case of any bruising or swelling occurs.

 

POST-TREATMENT CARE

  • For mild pain or headaches Tylenol is preferred.
  • After the Threadlifting treatment, DO NOT massage areas where the threads are placed unless instructed.
  • Treated areas may be slightly red, swollen, slightly irregular and bruised for the first 2-5 days. This will settle out.
  • DO NOT get a facial or massage in areas treated for 2 weeks after your procedure.
  • Avoid strenuous workouts and alcohol for 24 hours.
  • If bruising occurs, continue Arnica supplements or apply topical Arnica gel, drink fresh pineapple juice, and take Bromelain supplements to help bruising resolve more quickly.
  • Depending on the areas treated, if around the mouth, DO NOT undergo dental procedures for 3-4 weeks.
  • DO call the office if you notice any threads extruding from the skin.

Fillers Icon

FILLERS

FILLERS

Fillers enhance your appearance by filling areas of lost volume, restoring areas that lack shape and definition, reducing the depth of fine lines and wrinkles, and augmenting atrophied areas such as the buttocks or other musculature.

Our facial fillers instantly define, lift, and add volume to any area with a volume-deficit, resulting in a subtle reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.As we age, skin naturally loses elasticity and produces less collagen. Facial Fillers instantly define, lift, and add volume to any area with a volume-deficit, resulting in a subtle reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Fillers also stimulate the production of your own natural collagen for long-term facial rejuvenation. Our office uses Juvederm, Restylane, and Versa, containing Hyaluronic Acid (HA); Radiesse with Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA); and Sculptra made with Polylactic Acid (PLLA) as Facial Fillers. After a detailed facial assessment, the area is disinfected and then the facial Filler is gently injected with a fine needle into the targeted areas.

RECOMMENDED USE

Fillers enhance your appearance through facial contouring and the restoration of lost volume, definition, and structure.
