Non-Surgical Treatments Washington DC
Botox
Botox Cosmetic 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 to give your skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance.
Chemical Peel
Chemical peel uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Common chemical formulas include alpha-hydroxy acid, glycolic acid, and others.
Kybella
Kybella (deoxycholic acid) injection is a FDA-approved injectable treatment that is used in adults to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat), also called, “double chin.”
Sclerotherapy
In this rather simple procedure, veins are injected with a sclerosing solution, which causes them to collapse and fade from view. The procedure may also remedy the bothersome symptoms associated with spider veins, including aching, burning, swelling and night cramps.
Injectable Fillers
Soft-tissue fillers can help fill in lines and creases, temporarily restoring a smoother, more youthful-looking appearance.
When injected beneath the skin, these fillers plump up creased and sunken areas of the face. Wrinkle filler injections are quick and much of the time, suprisingly comfortable.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a skin-freshening technique that helps repair facial skin that takes a beating from the sun and the effects of aging. The plastic surgeon uses a device like a fine sandblaster to spray tiny crystals across the face, mixing gentle abrasion with suction to remove the dead, outer layer of skin.
Skin Care
Several options are available to help you care for your skin on a daily basis, whether you have recently undergone a procedure or not. Skin management products will help ready your skin for a treatment, while camouflage cosmetics will help hide the after-effects of a surgery. Latisse is also available for patients who feel they have inadequate eyelash growth.
Ear Molding
Ear molding uses a new medical device that non-surgically and painlessly corrects infant ear deformities, regardless of type or severity. It has been designed to properly and permanently reshape the ear during the narrow time window when circulating maternal estrogens remain at high levels in the child.
