Injectables and Fillers for a Smoother Facial Appearance

The stress of last year may have worn and tired your appearance, and facial injectable fillers are ideal options for smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles with minimal pain and recovery. Within one short office visit, you can quickly “touch up” aging indicators to create a younger, more rejuvenated facial appearance. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the increasing popularity of non-surgical facial rejuvenation continues to grow and provides endless customization for patients. You can undergo one or a combination of our injectable treatments.

Injectables and Fillers Offered:

• JUVÉDERM®: Composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, JUVÉDERM® can treat smile lines, wrinkles under the eyes, loss of fat in the cheeks, and thin lips.
• Restylane®: This hyaluronic acid formula helps fill nasolabial folds, creases around the mouth, and loss of volume in the cheeks.
• RADIESSE®: Made of calcium hydroxylapatite, this injectable effectively treats marionette lines, depressions on the nose, smile lines, loss of volume in the cheeks, and loss of definition along the jawline.
• BOTOX® Cosmetic: Made of a protein derived from botulinum toxin type A that blocks nerve impulses to temporarily paralyze facial muscles, BOTOX® Cosmetic can help to target frown lines, crow’s feet, and wrinkles along the forehead.

Non-surgical Facelift With INFINI™ Laser

Aging, sun exposure, environmental factors, and stress can all impact the overall appearance of the face. As time goes on, the tissues on the face tend to dry out and sag. INFINI™ Laser is a radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device that helps to remove wrinkles and reduce facial skin laxity. Patients can achieve results similar to those of a facelift without the surgical scars and pain.

Eliminate Fat From the Love Handles and Abdomen

Many of us have noticed how much the holiday season has caused us to pack on the pounds. We can diet and exercise to get rid of the unwanted weight, but sometimes even a healthy lifestyle provides little to no success. SculpSure® is one of the latest fat-reduction technologies designed to target stubborn areas such as the love handles and abdomen. Using custom-designed applicators, the SculpSure® device emits laser technology to eliminate fat by attacking the fat cells and melting them down.

Many people find themselves looking in the mirror and examining their body and facial flaws. They may notice excess fat, stubborn bulges, fine lines, and wrinkles. They often try at-home methods such as fad diets and strenuous exercises to eliminate unsightly bulges or scrubs to remove superficial signs of aging but without success.

Surgical procedures, such as liposuction or facelift surgery, may sound like ideal solutions, but they entail long recoveries and anesthesia. Going “under the knife” can be intimidating for many. Thanks to the latest technologies in cosmetic surgery, more doors have opened for non-invasive cosmetic options. Dr. Robert Wald offers SculpSure® and INFINI™ laser treatments, which both promise to provide results similar to surgery but with less postoperative downtime and pain.

Remove Wrinkles and Reduce Facial Skin Laxity

Even with a regular skincare routine, the effects of time kick in and signs of aging begin to develop. Creams and lotions can only do so much. INFINI™ Laser is a non-surgical treatment used to remove wrinkles and improve skin tone.

The INFINI™ treatment

INFINI™ is a radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device that provides a non-surgical facelift for all skin types. The treatment can be performed in-office. Dr. Wald will customize the procedure to the patient’s needs. He controls the treatment zone, intensity, and needle pass depth. The INFINI™ device works by creating thousands of coagulation zones in the dermis to emit precise energy that creates micro-injuries in the skin. This process promotes the formation of new collagen and elastin to help create brighter, softer, and smoother skin.

Eliminate Unwanted Fat and Sculpt the Body

A healthy lifestyle that includes a diet and exercise regimen is sometimes no match against stubborn fat in the abdomen, love handles, thighs, back rolls, and arms. SculpSure® is a non-invasive option to eliminate unwanted fat from target areas of the body. Patients can achieve a slimmer waistline, smoother hips, and a flatter abdomen with SculpSure®.

SculpSure® Treatment

SculpSure® passes laser energy through the skin to attack fat cells and melt them down, eliminating them from the body. It is a short in-office procedure that can be performed in about 25 minutes. The SculpSure® applicator is held against the target area so the laser can penetrate the skin. Patients can go back to work and resume normal activities following treatment. The body will slowly flush out the destroyed fat cells over the next six to eight weeks. After this time, a firmer, trimmer body will be revealed.

We all want to look and feel younger. Unfortunately, time can become our enemy as the aging process takes hold. Fine lines, wrinkles, and creases seem to develop very quickly before we even realize it. Many people try various at-home treatments to remedy their signs of aging but see very little satisfying results.

Surgical Facelift

When a person decides that enough is enough, they may start leaning towards the idea of facelift surgery. Even though a facelift makes you look 12 years younger according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, surgical procedures can be intimidating. Surgery entails a long recovery, anesthesia, and postoperative pain and discomfort.

Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation

The INFINI™ radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device uses the latest technology to eliminate wrinkles and improve the quality of the skin. INFINI™ is a non-surgical facelift option that offers a less invasive approach than traditional facelift surgery. Depending on each patient’s facial anatomy and preferences, they may choose to undergo a traditional facelift or an INFINI™ non-surgical facelift procedure.

Which facial rejuvenation procedure is right for me?

When deciding on a facelift option, it is important to understand what each procedure is designed to target and what outcome you can potentially achieve.

Getting older can be frustrating. No matter how many creams and anti-aging treatments we try to use to halt the process, sagging skin and fine lines can seem to sneak up on us overnight. Aging can cause some turmoil in our lives, but it doesn’t mean we don’t have options to stop it in its tracks.

Facial surgery, such as a facelift or neck lift, can reverse the signs of aging. But for many people, the word “surgery” can be scary. Surgery involves anesthesia, scalpels, and a long recovery, which all sound like a painful and inconvenient way to get rid of sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles. What if we told you that you could get results almost as good as a facelift but without the “nip and tuck?” Now, with the INFINI™ laser treatment system, you can! INFINI™ reverses the aging process by reducing the appearance of wrinkles on the face and neck while it lifts and tightens the skin.

What’s so great about the INFINI™ laser?

What are the benefits of the INFINI™ laser?

• Minimal downtime
• Safe on all skin types
• No pain
• Long-lasting results

How does INFINI™ work?

The INFINI™ treatment system works by delivering radiofrequency that targets coagulation zones within specific layers of the dermis. Its high-intensity laser heats up as Dr. Wald manipulates it to individually adjust the depth of the needles to match it to each patient’s skin type and goals.

When will I see results?

Three weeks after treatment, patients will notice a brighter skin tone and a significant reduction in oil secretion (for patients will oily skin). After one month, the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity will be lessened. Over the next three months, the condition of the skin will continue to improve, and the appearance of wrinkles, skin laxity, enlarged pores, and scars will diminish. Full results will be apparent after three months, and patients will notice a smoother, more youthful skin complexion.

How long will my results last?

Unfortunately, there is no definitive stop to the aging process. INFINI™ can reverse years of aging on the face and neck, but it cannot prevent future aging. Patients who benefit most from the procedure continue to practice a healthy diet and regular skin care regimen, including protecting their skin from the sun. Continued maintenance of the facial skin can help patients to enjoy their results for a long time.
