Anti-Aging 101: Get Savvy!


Ok, so not everyone has worn sunscreen since the day they turned sixteen. What about those of us who, despite our best efforts, have started to notice those fine lines and wrinkles replacing the once porcelain features of our youth? No worries, there are a ton of ways to send them packing.

Botox
Probably the most popular method for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, Botox is a quick and virtually painless solution. In the time it takes to order and receive your favorite designer coffee, you can be in and out of the office with no down time and back to work without anyone being the wiser.

Cosmetic Fillers
There are those that plump your lips and add volume to sunken cheeks, and there are those that smooth wrinkles around your mouth and nose. At SLEEK we believe in using only the finest products available. Juvederm, Radiesse and Sculptra are the secret weapons of choice. Our treatment consultants are expertly trained to help you decide which filler is best for you.

Non-Invasive Procedures
You’re ready to take the next step, but aren’t quite ready for surgery. Cosmetic procedures have undergone significant technological changes in recent years, leading to a rise in minimally invasive techniques. Laser Skin Resurfacing is one such technique, which uses a carbon dioxide laser to stimulate the formation of new, healthy tissue. Another procedure we love is called a Photo Facial, where a technician uses intense pulsed light to remove brown spots, broken capillaries, or redness. Yet another minimally invasive procedure is called Laser Skin Tightening, where a dual-layer radio frequency tones and tightens the skin and stimulates collagen production. There are many options when it comes to non-invasive procedures, so don’t hesitate to ask one of our SLEEK treatment consultants which would best suit your particular skin type.

Surgical Procedures
You’ve done your research. You’re ready to make a lasting and significant change to your appearance. Cosmetic surgery has grown leaps and bounds in the last several years, with fewer people accepting the fate of growing old gracefully and more people looking to cosmetic surgery to turn back the hands of time. The increase in the number of people having cosmetic surgery has also increased its acceptability in society. Procedures such as eyelid surgery, eyebrow lifts, neck lifts and probably the most well known, facelifts, are performed regularly at our SLEEK surgical locations by skilled aesthetic plastic surgeons.

No matter which procedure suits your individual needs, trust the experts at SLEEK Surgical & MedSpa to help you choose the perfect solution for your anti-aging needs!
