What is EVOLENCE®? EVOLENCE® is a breakthrough anti-aging treatment that replaces the collagen you've lost with collagen that lasts. Immediately improve and refresh your appearance...
- Smooth and soften the appearance of unwanted
facial wrinkles and folds,
- Restore structure and facial contour in volume-depleted areas.
Why is collagen so important for achieving a refreshed, youthful appearance? Collagen is nature's most fundamental building block, making up to 80% of the skin's structure, strength, and support. Collagen depletes as we age, leading to a tired or aged appearance as wrinkles and folds form and changes are seen in facial contour and structure. EVOLENCE® replaces lost collagen to enhance and maintain the structure, volume, and naturally younger-looking appearance of your skin.

Which between fillers and Blepharoplasty should I have first?
Posted June 07, 2009 8:59 PM in Blepharoplasty
About 8 months ago, I had lower blepharoplasty and CO2 laser. My eyes are hollowed out more so than ever, and extra skin is evident to the point that I'm afraid to smile.
I've seen a few doctors and they all suggest different things - another lower blepharoplasty, or fillers. Some suggest a filler first, then a snip incision, and ssome prefer Restylane and some prefer Perlane. Does the order matter? My skin in fairly thin.
Which between fillers and lower blepharoplasty should I have first?
First, You Should See an Eyelid Expert!
When there is a problem that affects the eyelids, you should be evaluated by an Ocular Plastic Specialist. These specialists, like Kenneth D. Steinsapir, MD and myself, are Eye MDs who have specific further training in cosmetic and plastic surgery around the eye. There are some excellent American Society of Ophthalmic and Plastic Reconstructive Surgery physicians.
To answer your question, the order of filler and / or skin removal or tightening is not as important as the choice of the correct physician. Restylane and Perlane are "cousins" and in the right hands, either one could make improvements. Cost should be a consideration but it should not force you to choose the wrong physician. Hope this helps!

Wait for weight loss to have cosmetic procedures?
Posted June 02, 2009 10:18 PM in Facial Contouring
Should I wait for my face to adjust after weight loss before I go through Acclaim Laser Skin Rejuvenation and Sculptra?
I just lost 30 lbs, and I'd like to know, are there any advantages to waiting for the face to adjust before going through Laser and Sculptra procedures?
In response, I congratulate you on your weight loss. This is hard work but a worthwhile endeavor. Unfortunately we cannot always choose where the weight loss will come from. Many of us end up looking older when we lose weight in our face. We need to replace this volume (fat, muscle, bone) in our faces to look young.
Think about what a balloon looks like as it deflates and the latex gets all shriveled; this happens to our skin as well. If you are finished in your quest to lose weight this may be an ideal time to have a filler and resurfacing.
Sculptra and Acclaim are certainly option thought they may not necessarily be the ones that are best for you. It is important that you have a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon who can guide you. Good Luck.

Is Botox used for smokers' lip lines?
Posted May 26, 2009 9:14 PM in BOTOX® Cosmetic
A 31 year-old patient, with a 13 year smoking history, has noticed fine lines around her eyes and mouth over the past couple of years. The wrinkles are most bothersome when she smiles and is thinking of treating these lines with Botox.
It is important to realize: SMOKING WILL AGE YOU QUICKLY!!!
Experience has taught me to use a 4-step approach to best address these bothersome smile lines:
- Botox to treat the dynamic (moving) muscle underneath the skin of the eyelid.
- Laser skin resurfacing to build up collagen and tighten the surround skin.
- Filler may occasionally be necessary in the transition zone between your lower lid and cheek.
- Some patients may also benefit from skin tightening through procedures like Thermage
Not everyone needs all 4 parts of this puzzle to repair their problem. For some, Botox Cosmetic treatment may be the perfect stand-alone anti-aging treatment. To best determine what services could best benefit you, we invite you to our Sterling Heights Medical Spa for a FREE consultation.
If you mention this blog you will save $100 per syringe of any filler through May 31, 2009.
