Question:
I’m 38 years old and have some hollowing and volume loss in my lower cheeks. Can this be fixed with a facelift or would fillers or fat grafting be a better option?

Patients need to come in for a consultation to see whether a lifting procedure or volumizing procedure is best for lower cheeks. We perform both in our practice.

How can I remove facial veins?

Question:
My face has some ugly blue veins up around my temples. What’s the best way to get rid of them?
Answer:
For larger blue veins around the temple, the best answer is to fill around them with either fat or other synthetic fillers like Sculptra or Radiesse. However, sometimes these veins can be excised. Sclerotherapy is not a good answer for these veins.

What is Pelleve and how does it work?
Posted September 01, 2011 5:20 PM in Cosmetic Injectables
Question:
I've recently heard about a new procedure called Pelleve that's supposed to be amazing in treating wrinkles and tightening skin without surgery. I don't really understand how this works. Is it a form of laser resurfacing or does it use ultrasound? How effective is it?
Answer:
The Pelleve procedure is a radio frequency procedure and it fits in with the classification of other radio frequency devices in our practice. This heats the tissue and then causes the body to form a natural wound healing response to tighten skin. It is most effective in patients with decent skin quality and least effective in older patients who smoke.
