BOTOX™ Cosmetic is the most requested anti-aging procedure. It is a purified protein toxin produced by the clostridium botulinum bacteria. Although BOTOX™ Cosmetic is a toxin, there have been no serious side effects reported. This is because it is used in extremely small amounts and does not spread throughout the body.

A few drops of BOTOX™ Cosmetic are injected with a tiny needle into the muscle that creates a wrinkle. BOTOX™ Cosmetic blocks the nerve impulse from reaching that area, causing the muscle to relax. As a result, the wrinkles in the overlying skin gradually soften, and sometimes even disappear, which leads to a more youthful, rested appearance. The most commonly treated areas are crows feet, frown lines, and forehead lines.

Our patients report a dramatic reduction in wrinkles and are very pleased with the results. If you are wondering if BOTOX™ Cosmetic treatments are for you, visit the BOTOX™ Cosmetic FAQ page, or schedule a consultation with one of our doctors.

Perlane is an injectable cosmetic dermal filler that has been used to soften wrinkles and facial lines of individuals. It is also a popular filler for lip augmentation, facial depressions, and facial scarring. It can be used in both sexes.

What is Perlane made of?
Perlane is made from non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid gel. Perlane is a non animal product and does not pose any risk of allergies. Hyaluronic acid is a resilient chemical and can easily adjust and mold to the facial contours. Unlike other dermal fillers, no prior skin testing is required prior to the injection of Perlane.

The hyaluronic acid in Perlane augments the body's natural supply, which has become depleted with age. The injected Perlane fills up scars, lines and wrinkles on the face. Perlane is not a permanent product and is broken down in the body. At most, the face remains for about 6-8 months after injection of Perlane. This is a much longer period than any of the currently available temporary dermal fillers.

What Areas of the Face Can Be Treated with Perlane?
Perlane injections can be used to improve the contour of facial skin, decrease unsightly wrinkles, and reduce fine lines around the nose, folds, scars, and other facial skin depressions

Collagen is a natural substance that is found in skin, muscle, tendons and bones and provides structural support. In the dermis (the mid-layer of skin), collagen is made by fibroblast cells. It forms a fibrous network on which new cells can grow. Through the natural processes of aging, collagen in the dermis is gradually lost and contributes to the formation of facial lines.

Injectable bovine collagen is made of sterile, purified collagen from cow skin. Human collagen implants are highly purified and isolated from human skin grown in a laboratory. The cells have been grown for the last ten years or so primarily to manufacture living skin-equivalents to treat burns and ulcers.

When injected into the body's skin both forms fibers of collagen are accepted as if they were the body's own collagen, forming a network of collagen fibres.
