Procedures
These procedures are routinely performed within our offices with minimal downtime.

• Laser Blepharoplasty
  
  Blepharoplasty (eyelid lift) is a surgical technique used to improve the appearance of the upper and lower eyelids. In the upper eyelid, excessive skin can produce large folds that if extreme can actually compromise the line-of-sight. There may also be bulging of orbital fat pads producing a puffy look. In the lower eyelid, bulging fat pads are usually the main problem.
  
  
• Contour Threads™ Lift
  
  A Contour ThreadLift™ with patented Contour Threads™ is a minimally invasive, safe and effective non-surgical procedure that offers that offers subtle, natural-looking facelift-like results.
  
  
• Brow Lift
  
  A forehead lift or "brow lift" is a procedure that restores a more youthful, refreshed look to the area above the eyes. The procedure corrects drooping brows and improves the horizontal lines and furrows that can make a person appear angry, sad or tired.
  
  
• Ptosis Repair
  
  Ptosis (pronounced TOE-sis) is the medical term for drooping eyelids. A person with ptosis is not able to lift one or both upper eyelids to uncover the eye completely. Many people want to correct ptosis because it damages their appearance. In most cases, the sagging upper eyelid results in a loss of the superior (upper) field of vision. In severe cases, ptosis may be present at birth and, if left untreated, can permanently damage vision by forcing the unaffected eye to do all the work while letting the affected eye degenerate.
  
  
• Botox® Injections
  
  The cosmetic form of botulinum toxin, often referred to by its product name Botox®, 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. Studies have also suggested that Botox is effective in relieving migraine headaches, excessive sweating and muscle spasms in the neck and eyes.
  
  
• Restylane® Injections
  
  Restylane® is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. Restylane® is injected directly into the skin in tiny amounts by an ultrafine needle, resulting in minimal discomfort. The procedure is simple and convenient and results are practically instantaneous. To optimize your comfort during the short procedure, your physician may decide to numb the treatment area.
  
  
• Laser Skin Tightening (Titan Procedure™)
  
  Using safe infrared light, the Titan™ procedure is a non-invasive method of tightening collagen under areas of sagging skin. This infrared light treatment causes the collagen to contract and to become firmer and tighter. In many cases, the Titan™ procedure stimulates long-term collagen production, extending the beneficial effects of the treatment.
  
  
• Laser Resurfacing
  
  In 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. However, it is also effective in treating facial scars or areas of uneven pigmentation. Laser resurfacing may be performed on the whole face or in specific regions. Often, the procedure is done in conjunction with another cosmetic operation, such as a facelift or eyelid surgery.
  
  
• Laser Treatment of Rosacea and Large Pores
  
  Laser Genesis is a unique non-ablative procedure that promotes healthy looking skin including the reduction of diffuse redness, reduced pore size and improved skin tone and texture. The procedure creates a gentle warming of the skin that patients enjoy, and is truly a "no downtime" procedure.
  
  
• Laser Hair, Vein and Spot Removal
  
  Lasers are well suited for the removal of unwanted hair, because with the right selection of parameters, they can be used as a non-invasive method to disable the hair structure without damaging the surrounding dermis and epidermis. Numerous hair follicles can be treated simultaneously allowing for rapid coverage of large areas.
