Bring Back Vitality and Luster to Your Skin
Non-surgical Skin Treatment Buffalo
In addition to injectable treatments, there are other non-surgical means of improving the appearance of the skin, including peels and microdermabrasion. If the signs of aging or sun exposure have left you with a tired appearance or stripped away your skin's natural luster, non-surgical skin treatment can rejuvenate your youthful brilliance. At our Buffalo practice, we understand that not all of our patients require facial cosmetic surgery to meet their needs; in such cases, we are happy to offer a range of non-surgical treatments.
Our team is led by Dr. David Sherris, an accomplished plastic surgeon and skin care specialist. If you are seeking non-surgical skin treatment in the greater Buffalo area, including Niagara Falls, you can trust he has the experience, skill, and knowledge base to help. To schedule a consultation, contact the Clinic of Facial Plastic Surgery today.
BOTOX® Cosmetic
Laugh lines, frown lines, Crow’s Feet, and wrinkles can all be corrected with BOTOX® injections. Applied directly beneath the surface of the skin, BOTOX® Cosmetic temporarily paralyzes the muscles responsible for lines and wrinkles, resulting in a smooth, uniform appearance. The procedure, which can be completed over an extended lunch break, is nearly pain-free and produces results that can last up to six months.
Injectables
Dermal fillers provide volume for areas of the face that are sunken in or hollow. Containing natural hyaluronic acid, which is harmlessly absorbed into the body over time, dermal fillers can significantly bolster the appearance of the face. Wrinkles and laugh lines are eliminated and the skin looks healthier and more youthful thanks to restored volume. The results of dermal fillers are long-lasting; in fact, some dermal fillers stimulate collagen production for continued results long after the filler has been absorbed.
Chemical Peels
A chemical peel can provide for smoother skin, improved complexion, more uniform skin coloration, and a more supple skin texture. To perform a chemical peel, or "cosmetic peel," a chemical solution, consisting of mild acids with varying degrees of strength, is applied to the face and allowed to sit so that it has time to act upon the upper layer of skin. When the treatment is complete, the peel is removed; the upper layer of the epidermis, which consists primarily of dead and dry skin tissue, is eliminated by the chemical solution so that healthy, youthful skin can be exposed.
An effective non-surgical skin treatment for facial blemishes, slight wrinkles, and discoloration, a chemical peel is administered quickly and safely, and requires little to no recovery time. In some cases, depending on the scope of the procedure, some redness and irritation may persist after treatment, but typically such symptoms disappear in an hour or so. While dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic tend to be used to treat specific areas of the face, a chemical peel can revitalize the appearance of the entire face, making it ideal for individuals seeking a new, more youthful appearance.
Microdermabrasion
Similar to a chemical peel, microdermabrasion is a non-surgical skin treatment that provides for healthier, more youthful-looking skin. Unlike a chemical peel however, microdermabrasion uses no chemical solutions or acids. Rather, micro aluminum oxide crystals are applied to the surface of the skin to exfoliate dead and damaged cells. These skin cells are then removed by the applicator's mild suction, revealing healthy, younger skin. Over time, microdermabrasion treatment promotes elastin and collagen production, providing comprehensive results that can truly revitalize a person's appearance. In fact, for the best results, patients should undergo between 5-10 treatments, spaced roughly two weeks apart. The procedure typically lasts no more than an hour and requires zero recovery time.
