BOTOX® Cosmetic targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines and crow's feet-the repeated muscle contractions from frowning and squinting over the years. Your specialist will inject these muscles with BOTOX® Cosmetic to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice a visible smoothing of your crow's feet lines and frown lines between your brows.

Some patients report that being injected with BOTOX® Cosmetic feels like a pinch. Your specialist may use ice to numb the treatment area.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a technique-sensitive treatment. You should not lose the ability to show expression when you are treated by someone who is licensed, trained, and a medical expert in facial anatomy. It is important to talk to your specialist about the results you want from treatment.

You will begin to notice results within 7 to 10 days, with results lasting up to 3 to 4 months.

Yes. BOTOX® Cosmetic has also been clinically evaluated in male patients. In clinical studies for moderate to severe frown lines, 17.5% of patients treated with BOTOX® Cosmetic were men. In the clinical studies for moderate to severe crow's feet, male patients comprised approximately 10% of patients treated with BOTOX® Cosmetic. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 10% of all cosmetic procedures performed in the United States in 2014 were on men-that is more than 1 million cosmetic procedures. The number of cosmetic procedures for men increased by 273% from 1997 to 2014.

Most side effects are short-lived and mild, the most common being mild bruising to the site of the injection. Some patients also report mild headaches shortly after the treatment, or the feeling of heavy eye lids, but these side effect will subside.

Injectable filler gel adds volume to the skin, plumping it out and giving the appearance of a smoother surface. Filler smoothes moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. This treatment is generally used on the lower face for lines around the nose and mouth and lines around the lips (often called 'smoker's lines'). It can also be used to improve the appearance of scars or dents on the face.

It typically takes no more than three days, but the final balance of the product may take up to two weeks

Makeup can be applied the following day.

It is best to delay any skincare treatment for the following 48 to 72 hours following the injection of your fillers.

Typically, two weeks before is enough time. This will allow for any potential bruising or swelling to subside as well as the ability for minor touch ups.

This can vary from one filler to another, as well as from patient to patient. There are fillers that can last up to six months or as long as a year and a half.

There is no specific age to start dermal fillers. It depends on when the need arises. We have very young patients that are using dermal fillers for enhancing facial features, such as their lips; and minimizing signs of aging, such as loss of volume in the cheeks.

Fillers such as Sculptra, Restylane, and JUVГDERM are biocompatible and biodegradable. These terms mean that these injectables can be broken down and naturally eliminated by your body's normal cleansing processes

Harsh chemicals are used in waterproof formulas in order to make them, well... waterproof. This chemical composition is extremely drying to your lashes. Not to mention all the effort and extra tugging and pulling on the lashes to remove the mascara. Most people are not great at thoroughly removing their mascara. In that case, you are running around with a super drying film of chemicals on your lashes 24 hours a day. This results in weekend lashes that are prone to breakage, and over shedding.

Pretty much for all the reasons stated above and if you are a regular waterproof mascara wearer, your lashes are already dehydrated and weakened. This can result in a poor Lift and possible further damage.

No, not if you follow all the advice on pre-prep and post care. Elleebana's unique Australian formulation will leave your Lashes healthy, lush and lifted.

Yes! Microdermabrasion is a simple, non-invasive procedure using crystal free Diamond-Tome wands, which are painless and effective for the removal of dead skin cells. Increasing the blood supply provides nutrients necessary for skin regeneration, repair, and increased cellular turnover. In return, improving the skins' elasticity and texture, as well as balancing the pigment.

Dermaplaning is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a 10 gauge scalpel to gently remove the layer of dull, dead skin cells and vellus hair in order to reveal smoother, brighter complexion and aids is better product penetration.

Dermaplaning is recommended for all skin types except those with active breakout and men with heavy facial hair. If you have active acne there are other treatments available that would be more beneficial, and it is necessary to wait until breakouts are healed before trying this treatment. This is a great treatment if you are pregnant or nursing and want exfoliation without the use of chemicals.

Exfoliation in the form of dermaplaning followed by restorative treatment and finished with skin care suited to your unique skin.

You'll immediately look more radiant with a more even skin tone and texture. While the main objective of this treatment is exfoliation, the immediate removal of peach fuzz is an added benefit which renders the skin exceptionally smooth and soft. Skin care products are better able to penetrate the skin following a dermaplaning service which allows them to work more efficiently. Your cosmetics will also go on smoother. After the treatment, your skin will be highly sensitive to sun exposure and may look pink, so be sure to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation.

No, dermaplaning will not alter your natural hair growth. As we remove the vellus hair we are cutting it at the thickest part of the hair follicle so it may appear thicker or darker for a brief period of time. However, this perceived difference is cosmetic and most clients do not notice.

The level of discomfort experienced depends on the treatment. Most PCA professional chemical peels are gentle and create little burning or stinging sensation in the skin. Dramatic wrinkling, sun damage or acne scars may require a deeper peel, which may cause moderate stinging for a few minutes. More dramatic results can be expected from a deeper peel, however deep peels are not always necessary depending on desired needs and results. PCA Skins philosophy of taking a low-dose approach means our superficial chemical peels create minimal discomfort and produce beautiful and immediate results for most patients.

It is important you are compliant with using appropriate sunscreen protection every day. Sunbathing should be avoided directly following a treatment and while the skin is peeling. If you are getting peels to lighten the skin, it is imperative to avoid unnecessary sun exposure to reduce any chance of further hyperpigmentation.

Someone who is active may have any peel, but all peel patients must wait 48 hours after a treatment to exercise.

Dry skin is partially the result of dead cell buildup, which actually hinders natural exfoliation as well as the absorption and penetration of vitamins and nutrients. Having a PCA Professional chemical peel will remove surface buildup, hydrate the skin and give it a plumper, fuller appearance. The use of topical vitamin C and peptide products in a treatment, as well as in your daily care regimen will help build collagen in the skin, thus making it stronger and more durable.

It is common and expected that your skin will be red, dry, possibly itchy and/or irritated. Please notify our office if you have any adverse reactions such as a rash, swelling, burning or blistering. You may experience varying degrees of flaking and/or peeling depending on your skin type and skin condition at the time of your peel. Regardless of the degree of flaking and peeling, your skin is still sloughing off at an accelerated rate, which will result in an improvement of skin tone and texture, and diminishment of fine lines and pigmentation. Post Procedure products such as our post procedure kit are given at the time of treatment and expected to be used for 5 days. Apply a physical sunscreen containing Titanium and/or Zinc Oxide. Both provide adequate UVA and UVB protection.

7 days after your peel you may resume:

• Retin-A, Renova, Differin, Tazorac
• Any products containing retinol, alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) or beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), or benzoyl peroxide
• Any exfoliating products

Celluma Biophotonic therapy is based on Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology and is the application of light energy to the body for therapeutic benefits. It promotes a natural photobiochemical reaction similar to the process of plant photosynthesis. The energy delivered by the LEDs has been shown to enhance cellular metabolism, accelerate the repair and replenishment of damaged skin cells, as well as stimulate the production of collagen - the foundation of healthy, smooth skin. Research has shown that LED light therapy may help smooth skin texture, improve skin firmness and resilience, increase lymphatic system activity, restore skin's natural cellular activity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and superficial hyperpigmentation. The treatment is for all skin types, and is non-ablative, non-invasive, painless, and requiresabsolutely no downtime. Patients or clients can return to their normal activity immediately after the treatment.

Based on extensive research, Celluma devices have been cleared by the FDA, and shown to manage:

• Mild to moderate acne vulgaris
• Superficial, benign vascular and pigment lesions
• Periorbital wrinkles and rhytides
• Sub-optimal local blood flow and circulation
• Minor muscle and joint aches
• Minor muscle and joint pain
• Pain and stiffness associated with arthritis
• Minor arthritis or muscle spasms
• Minor chronic neck and shoulder pain of a musculoskeletal origin

LED devices are considered extremely low risk when used as intended. Celluma therapy is based on light emitting diode (LED) technology developed for NASA-manned space flight experiments. In comparison to lasers, the patented LED technology generates negligible amounts of heat and is not considered a significant risk device.

No. Celluma therapy is non-invasive and is painless when used as intended.

No. Celluma devices utilize a combination of blue, red, and infrared (not visible to the naked eye) light emitting diodes (LEDs) only.
