BOTOX® Cosmetic seeks to improve dynamic wrinkles and fine lines by blocking chemical signals responsible for muscle contractions and their corresponding wrinkles. Dynamic lines, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and lines around the mouth, are caused by frequent and repeated muscle movements. While these lines start as temporary (only showing when the muscles are in use), they can become permanent over time.

This injectable neuromodulator (neurotoxin) is made up of botulinum toxin (type A), which prevents chemical signals that cause muscles to contract. When carefully injected into the targeted muscle, BOTOX® Cosmetic smooths out the wrinkles, giving patients a more youthful facial appearance.

After the treatment, the results should last three to five months.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is used to reduce:

Crow’s feet
Glabellar lines (frown lines or “11’s” between the eyebrows)
Forehead creases
Lip lines
Gummy smile
And more

Dysport® is an injectable neuromodulator similar to BOTOX® Cosmetic, which causes the muscles in the treatment area to relax. This cosmetic treatment works best for glabellar lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet.

Like BOTOX® Cosmetic, this treatment lasts three to five months; however, unlike BOTOX® Cosmetic, the consistency of Dysport® allows it to spread more easily, making it better suited for treating larger areas like the forehead and even the armpits to help reduce excessive sweating.

Dysport® is used to reduce:

Forehead creases
Crow’s feet
Glabellar lines (frown lines or “11’s” between the eyebrows)

JUVÉDERM® is an injectable hyaluronic acid dermal filler used to plump facial contours. At WOW Cosmetic Surgery, we use this non-surgical injectable to improve signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss.

With this treatment, JUVÉDERM® is injected into the targeted area to fill hollow and thin areas in the face. Because this is a hyaluronic acid-based filler, it works similarly to natural hyaluronic acid (HA) found in your tissues. HA attracts and maintains moisture, allowing the skin and tissues to look supple and full. HA-based fillers do the same.

While you might notice some improvement immediately after the treatments, the results will keep improving for a couple of weeks as the product settles in your skin. Depending on the type of JUVÉDERM® and treatment area, results will likely last 12 to 18 months.

JUVÉDERM® is used to fill and plump:

Hollow cheeks
Thin lips
Nasolabial folds
Marionette lines
Sunken temples
Deep tear troughs

Restylane® is an injectable hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler used to treat signs of aging and help patients retain a more youthful facial appearance.

In most cases, some improvement can be noticed immediately after the treatment, but the full results will be realized in a week or two. Results tend to last between 12 and 18 months.

Hollow cheeks
Thin lips

Poly-L-lactic acid is also known to stimulate collagen production, revitalizing the skin and giving patients a more youthful facial appearance.

Sculptra® Aesthetic is one of the longest-lasting fillers available, and many patients can see their results for up to two years or more before repeated injections are needed.

Sculptra® Aesthetic is used to provide:

Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles

Skin firmness

RADIESSE® is an injectable filler made of calcium-based microspheres within a water-based gel that is used to improve the appearance of wrinkles and folds. In addition to initially smoothing wrinkles and plumping skin, RADIESSE® stimulates collagen production, revitalizing the skin and making it look and act younger. The results of the treatment should last up to 15 months.

RADIESSE® is FDA-approved to:

Minimize or erase fine lines and wrinkles
Reduce deep skin folds
Contour the jawline
Correct volume loss on the back of the hands

Sylfirm X RF microneedling combines the power of microneedling and radiofrequency energy to improve the appearance of various skin imperfections. The Sylfirm X device creates minor micro-wounds and delivers RF energy to the deeper layers of the skin using Regional Regeneration Radio Repeated Pulse (RP) technology. This stimulates the production of collagen, revitalizing and tightening the skin and giving patients a more beautiful and youthful appearance.

Sylfirm X RF microneedling:

Minimizes fine lines and wrinkles
Reduces the appearance of acne scars
Reduces melasma, rosacea, and other hyperpigmentation concerns
Evens out skin tone and texture
Tightens skin

Clear + Brilliant® is a laser treatment used to treat and even prevent visible signs of aging. With this treatment, a handheld device delivers laser energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates the production of collagen, which then reinvigorates and tightens the skin.

Clear + Brilliant® is best for:

Minimizing fine lines and wrinkles
Treating sun damage
Evening out skin tone
Reducing melasma

Fraxel® is a cosmetic treatment that uses penetrative laser wavelengths to treat several skin imperfections. Its lasers cause fractional photothermolysis for skin resurfacing. At WOW Cosmetic Surgery, we use this non-surgical cosmetic treatment to treat issues like aging and sun spots. By stimulating the production of collagen, Fraxel® laser treatment will boost the creation of new cells to replace the damaged skin cells, which should consequently improve the appearance of the skin.

Fraxel® is used to treat:

Wrinkles
Age spots
Sun spots (hyperpigmentation)
Facial scars
Uneven tone and texture
Melasma

Thermage® is a radiofrequency-based cosmetic treatment used to tighten, contour, and smooth the skin. The Thermage® device delivers RF energy into the deep, collagen-rich layers of the skin as its tip cools the skin surface to make the treatment comfortable.

The heat from the device causes water molecules and fibrous collagen to separate, allowing for an immediate contraction that tightens the skin. Thermage® treatment also promotes collagen production, revitalizing the skin and improving the visible signs of aging.

Thermage® is used to address concerns:

Around the eyes
Around the mouth
Across the forehead
On the body

PicoLO is a laser-based cosmetic treatment that improves the appearance of acne scars. The heat from the laser device removes the outer layer of the skin where an acne scar has formed. The heat energy also stimulates the production of collagen, which promotes the creation of new cells to replace the dead ones.

While this treatment may not completely remove scars, it can make them much less noticeable.

PicoLo is used to minimize:

Acne scars
Minor facial scars
Melasma
Benign pigmented lesions

VI Peel® is a chemical peel that exfoliates the skin and promotes the production of new collagen and proteins. It can penetrate the epidermis and reach the dermis underneath to treat signs of aging, correct skin pigmentation problems, and improve skin texture.

The VI Peel:

Exfoliates dry, damaged skin
Stimulates collagen production
Reduces pore size and promotes oil control
Reduces active acne
Minimizes acne scarring
Addresses fine lines and wrinkles
Treats sun-damaged skin

KYBELLA® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment used to reduce the excess fat that builds up below the chin (submental fat). The treatment relies on a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, which is used to break down and eliminate submental volume.

When injected, the product destroys fat cells in the treatment area, making it impossible for them to store fat. The ideal candidate for the procedure are adults with moderate to severe fat beneath the chin.

KYBELLA® is used to eliminate:

Double chins

If you are looking for a non-surgical method of removing a tattoo, PicoLO for tattoo removal is the answer. This laser-based treatment can remove tattoos in as few as two treatment sessions.

Using short pulses of energy, the laser energy from the handheld laser device breaks down ink particles without putting the surrounding tissue at risk of damage. While this tattoo removal method is effective on all colors of tattoo ink, it works best when removing tattoos with dark colors like black and blue.

PicoLO can be used to remove tattoos anywhere on the body.

Laser hair removal can help to remove unwanted hair in most areas of the body. The concentrated beam of light heats and destroys hair follicles, which effectively disrupts the hair growth cycle. While this treatment can significantly delay the growth of hair for an extended period, it does not truly remove hair permanently. It may take several months or even years to see hair growing in the treated area; and new growth is also expected to be lighter and thinner.

Laser hair removal can reduce unwanted hair growth in the following areas:

Face
Arms
Legs
Bikini area
Underarms
Back
And more
