GENTLEYAG By Candela: The GentleYag laser by Candela treats all skin types from light to darker skin. It can be used for permanent hair reduction, small vein removal, and skin tightening. The deep laser light penetration and limited light scatter make the GentleYag ideal for darker skin. The DCD (dynamic cooling device) protects the skin from overheating, and improves patient comfort and safety by spraying the skin with cryogen before each laser pulse. With minimal discomfort and no down time, this laser can produce dramatic results over a lunch break, or when patients have little time for lengthy procedures. For optimum results, three treatments are recommended.
SMOOTHBEAM LASER By Candela: For those of you who suffer with acne outbreaks or have scarring from acne as a teenager, the Smoothbeam Laser is right for you. The Smoothbeam acne laser treatment is usually successful where medical therapy has failed. The Smoothbeam 1450 mn diode laser is the first device specifically designed to target the root cause of ance, the sebaceous gland. It also uses DCD technology to cool and protect the skin prior to each laser pulse. An added benefit of the Smoothbeam acne treatment is collagen contraction that improves the appearance of acne scarring while treating the active acne lesions. For optimum results, three treatments are recommended.
BOTOX COSMETIC By Allergan: Do you still feel young at heart but don't like what you see when you look in the mirror? Botox cosmetic treatment may be the answer for you. This fast and effective treatment takes only a few minutes and can be done over your lunch break. The procedure is done to relax overactive facial muscles that cause dynamic rhytids (skin wrinkles caused by muscle contraction). The procedure is done by using a very small needle to inject the overative muscle. It is especially effective for stubborn lines between the eyebrows that convey negative expression. Muscle relaxation begins in one to three days and continues for up to 10 days. Patients usually see results lasting from 2.5-6 months depending on the metabolism of each patient, muscles treated, and dose of Botox given. For more information go to www.BotoxCosmetic.com.

Fillers are used for volume repletion usually secondary to skin laxity, aging and gravity. Dr. Silver uses only FDA approved products such as Juvederm and Radiesse. Nasolabial folds, melomental folds, lip enhancement, and tear trough deformity are some of the uses of facial filler. Like Botox Cosmetic and Portrait skin rejuvenation, fillers provide many aesthetic enhancements that could have only been achieved in the not too distant past with invasive and expensive plastic surgery. An ideal filler achieves excellent results, is relatively long lasting and is tolerated well by nearly everyone without the need for allergy testing.
