Non-Surgical, Non-Invasive Facial Rejuvenation & Wrinkle Elimination

CO2 laser resurfacing (including fractionated CO2) is the best treatment to remove unwanted wrinkles and restore your skin to a more youthful appearance. By their nature CO2 lasers are extremely accurate in revitalizing aged skin and reducing or eliminating wrinkles while stimulating your own collagen production. The results are truly remarkable! Years of sun damage, smoking lines, and expression lines almost vanish entirely on just one session of CO2 laser resurfacing or several sessions of fractionated CO2 laser resurfacing.

Photo Rejuvenation

Intense pulse light (IPL) therapy improves dullness, fine lines, pore size and loose skin on the face. In addition, unwanted “sunspots” or uneven pigments of the skin are removed. This treatment is considered less invasive when compared to most lasers because it is not associated with excessive redness or sensitivity.

Thermage, Microdermabrasion & Chemical Peels

Our Thermage treatments can tighten skin on the chin, jaw, eyebrows and, neck, as well as other parts of the body. Thermage also improves the appearance of deep forehead wrinkles and facial or body scars.
Other skin resurfacing procedures include microdermabrasion and chemical peels. Microdermabrasion will improve skin dullness and fine lines as well as provide an optimal non-invasive treatment. Chemical peels are offered at various concentration levels, depending upon the condition of the face. Chemical peels accelerate the exfoliation process to result in a more advanced improvement than provided by microdermabrasion.

Botox, Hyaluronic Acid Fillers, Collagen Stimulation & Fat Transfers

Our practice offers a wide variety of options to combat aging and create a naturally, rejuvenated appearance. These targeted treatments include either Botox and Dysport to remedy frown lines, lines around the eyes, (crow’s feet), forehead and neck lines.

Due to facial volume loss which comes with aging, we have a variety of effective  fillers to reverse this trend including Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse, and Sculptra. As we age, there is also a loss of collagen in our skin. To meet this challenge, Dr. Hardesty and Dr. Bennett recommend the utilization of polyglycolic acid which can be added to deep folds or creases about the face and stimulates your body’ ability to produce collagen.

Microlipoinjection , also called autologous fat transfer, is an effective procedure in which an individual’s own body fat is used to plump up sunken or emaciated areas of the face, or to add volume where desired. The word “autologous” simply refers to the use of your own tissues or fat. Drs. Hardesty and Bennett have been at the forefront of this amazing advance in facial rejuvenation.

Medical Aesthetics

Our licensed medical aestheticians employ a variety of facial rejuvenation treatments. These services include dermaplanning, the aforementioned microdermabrasion and, TCA peels. Additionally, our experts will assemble individually tailored prescription strength skin care products for home use.

Endermologie (LPG)

This procedure is designed to reduce cellulite, erase a cottage cheese appearance, tone and contour your body and skin. It is effective for both women and men as either an alternative or an adjunct liposuction treatment. In addition to slimming fat cells, Endermologie can often assist in firming the skin and sculpting your figure.

Laser Hair Removal (GentleLASE®)

Laser hair removal may treat hair on the face, eyebrows, body, arms, and legs. It focuses upon immobilizing hair follicles so that they do not continue to grow. Multiple treatments are required to be repeated until disruption of the hair follicle growth process is complete.

Spider Vein Removal

Red, blue or purple spider veins may be removed through our laser VBeam® therapy and/or sclerotherapy.

Additional Supportive Non-Surgical Remedies

• Erchonia: Our low level light laser can be effectively utilized during liposuction, but it has also been shown to be advantageous in the prevention and treatment of capsular contracture (also known as internal scar reduction).
• Ultrasound is often used to treat post-operative swelling and bruising
• NewGel+E is an advanced silicone gel ointment which delivers a safe, clinically proven method to reduce, flatten, fade and smooth both old and new scars.
