Derm One Dermatology Centers - Northfield Branch

As we age, our face begins to lose its firmness, causing furrows, folds and wrinkles. Injectable dermal fillers can revitalize appearances by visibly reducing wrinkles and lines, enhancing cheeks and plumping lips. Treatments are precisely injected below the skin’s surface to add volume and stimulate the skin’s natural collagen growth. Usually performed in about 10 to 15 minutes by a DermOne specialist, the procedure is done on an outpatient basis and results can last from three months to years, depending on the type of filler used.

If you aren't quite ready for a face or brow lift but want to smooth out the appearance of “frown lines” and “crow’s feet” on your face could be the non-surgical solution for you. Made out of type A – a naturally occurring protein works by blocking nerve impulses to the tiny muscles that form expression lines on the face. Because these targeted muscles do not contract, the skin stays smooth and undisturbed, creating a younger-looking, more relaxed face. treatments consist of a series of virtually painless, small injections into specific facial muscles, typically at the outer corners of the eyes or on the forehead and brow. The treatment usually takes less than 30 minutes to complete, no anesthesia or medication is required and most people find that they can resume their normal, non-strenuous activities immediately afterward.
