Botox®

We may love our expression lines because they speak of our experiences, but sometimes they say too much. And if they’re making you look older and more tired than you feel, it may be time to express the real you with Botox®.
From celebrities to politicians to your next-door neighbor, more and more people are having their crow's feet, frown lines and furrows injected with Botox® to smooth them away. In fact, Botox® has rapidly become the most popular of all medically administered cosmetic procedures (surgical and nonsurgical combined), with over 3.8 million procedures performed in 2005 alone.
Want immediate results that creams and lotions can't deliver? Nothing compares with the often dramatic improvements from Botox®, especially for dynamic wrinkles—those that appear when you frown, smile or laugh. Because of its powerful ability to transform faces, there’s an art to Botox®. Administered by specially trained medical professionals, it can smooth lines and lift brows, creating an open, friendlier, more relaxed face with a result that is natural looking and still expressive.
Those suffering from excessive underarm perspiration (hyperhidrosis) will be relieved to learn the Botox® has been FDA-approved for the treatment of this condition, and is extremely effective in controlling perspiration in that area.

Dermal Fillers

Add another item to the "life's not fair" list: We work so hard at taking fat off of our bodies, yet the fat in our faces is key to a firm, youthful look. Thankfully, the new breed of wrinkle fillers is extremely effective at leveling the playing field.
Used to plump out smile lines, lips and moderate-to-deep skin creases, these gel-based products restore fullness to areas where collagen has been depleted. Unlike the standard tight, unnatural look of facelifts, this age-defying treatment is customized for each individual to add volume specifically where its needed, recreating the ample smoothness of youth.
Based on the same hyaluronic acid found in our bodies, Dermal Fillers like Restylane® and Radiesse® have been shown to last longer than fat and collagen injections by using the body's own moisture to maintain their shape. These fillers can be used to shape facial contours, smooth wrinkles or sculpt lips. The result is a longer-lasting, more youthful and fuller appearance.


FotoRenu™

Can you really undo the skin sins of the past? If too many beach days have left you with brown spots, red patches and broken capillaries, you'll see significant improvement with a series of FotoRenu™ Skin Rejuvenation treatments.
Harnessing the healing and corrective properties of light, this innovative new “lunchtime” laser treatment can reduce discoloration, age spots, sun damage and fine lines by boosting collagen production...all with minimal or no down time.
Thanks to its impressive results in treating excessive flushing, broken blood vessels and enlarged pores, it's quickly become a must-have for those suffering from rosacea. Typically performed on the face, neck, chest, back or hands, best results are seen with four or more treatments.


LaserLipo

LaserLipo™ combines liposuction, the most popular and effective fat-reduction surgery, with the newest, most advanced laser available to create a superior procedure that offers all the benefits of liposuction with no general anesthesia or stitches plus less bruising,discomfort and downtime. Best of all, LaserLipo™ improves skin elasticity so you don’t need to worry about the lax, sagging skin often associated with traditional liposuction.
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that contours the body by removing excess fat from specific areas, including the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, upper arms, chin, and neck. Because skin laxity and irregular skin contouring may occur with traditional lipo, LaserLipo™ employs a high-power laser during the liposuction procedure. This laser provides multiple benefits: As it heats the skin, it causes contraction of the collagen bundles and stimulates the skin to produce more collagen. This promotes tighter skin during the healing process and helps to ensure a more uniform, tighter, smoother look once all final healing has occurred. Additionally, its heating action liquefies fat in the treated area, allowing for easier fat removal with less bruising and discomfort. Finally, the laser’s heating action cauterizes many of the small blood vessels that run through the fat layers. This greatly decreases post-procedural bruising, and allows for faster healing so that you can return to your regular routine much faster than with non-laser assisted liposuction (often within 48 hours).
The best candidates for LaserLipo™ are those people who are close to normal weight. Because liposuction is not a weight reduction tool, it’s best for those who have isolated pockets of fat that do not respond well to diet or exercise. The amount of fat removed in a LaserLipo™ procedure is limited to a maximum of approximately 10 pounds.
LaserLipo™ may be performed on the upper arms, neck, chest, abdomen, flanks (love handles), back buttocks, hips, outer thighs and inner thighs.
Because the fat cells are removed forever, the results of LaserLipo™ are usually permanent with a sensible diet and exercise. If you gain a significant amount of weight, the remaining fat cells can enlarge and/or the fat is usually distributed to other areas of the body.


SmoothEffects™

Admit it: It only take three words to get you (an otherwise intelligent woman with impeccable taste) to pick up a tabloid… Stars With Cellulite (“all new photos” doesn’t hurt either!).
Why are we so fascinated with Nicolette’s thighs and Posh’s posterior? Because 90% of women have the these diet- and exercise-resistant bumps and dimples. And it’s nice to know that even Uma sees the same thing when she steps out of the shower.
Because cellulite is a result of how women are anatomically created, and is influenced by hormones, genetics (how does your mom look in shorts?) and the aging process that causes skin to thin and allow the bumps to be more visible, it is a chronic condition that is not curable, even through diet and exercise.
So what’s a girl to do? Introducing SmoothEffects™, a safe, non-invasive controlled heat therapy that smoothes, tightens and reduces cellulite for a firmer appearance. SmoothEffects™ is fast and easy, and requires no downtime from normal activities.
The result is smoother, firmer thighs and buttocks with further tightening and contouring improvements that appear gradually over a two to six month time period, as new collagen develops and toxins are removed. SmoothEffects™ is available to treat the most common areas of cellulite development: thighs (front, back & sides) and buttocks.
Oh, and P.S.—there’s a good reason why you never see male celebs (even Jack Black) in capture cottage-cheese moments: men aren’t anatomically built to develop cellulite (there they go, getting lucky again).
Here’s how it plays out: Underneath the epidermis and dermis exists three fat layers. Cellulite develops in the most superficial of these layers, known as the subcutaneous fat layer. This layer is structurally unique from the others because its fat lobes are organized into chambers by surrounding strands of fibrous connective tissue.
In a woman’s body, these fibrous bands are vertical, which allows for an abundant storage of fat plus causes the skin to be pulled inward toward the body’s interior. The fat that surrounds these fibers pushes up through the bands, which results in the puckering and bulging we identify as cellulite.
Men are rarely affected by cellulite because their connective tissue develops in a different, diagonal pattern, which not only stores smaller quantities of fat but blocks the fat from protruding.


MicrodermUltra™

Unless you're part of the born-lucky club (you know, the one percent of the population that's genetically blessed with flawless skin), you probably need a little help achieving that glowing, luminescent complexion of youth. That's because, as we age, our skin's cellular turnover slows—leaving behind a build-up of dead surface skin cells…and a dull, lackluster complexion.
MicrodermUltra™ provides vigorous exfoliation to get rid of dry flakes and surface impurities and reveal the smooth, fresh glowing skin beneath. Best performed regularly (monthly or more), this treatment helps soften facial expression lines, clarifies pores and improves uneven skin texture on areas including the face, chest, neck, back, arms and hands. With repeated treatments, you may also see improvement in the appearance of pores and superficial scars.
Don't be confused by the vast sea of Microdermabrasion options. No at-home system or spa scrub can provide the deep exfoliation and visible results of medical-grade MicrodermUltra™. Instead of granules, which can often be irritating, pore-clogging and less effective, Reveal's state-of-the-art treatment uses a crystal-free system to smooth and polish skin.

Reveal™ Peel

How do they do it? Those celebs and beauty insiders whose faces radiate with dewy, smooth, poreless skin. Airbrushing aside, these skin-savvy women understand that the right combination of chemistry, hydration and exfoliation can do amazing things to otherwise ordinary skin in a matter of minutes.
Chemical peels (also known as "lunchtime peels") are a quick way to gently rejuvenate skin and promote cellular turnover. And they're the perfect exfoliation alternative for those whose acne or broken capillaries make them poor candidates for MicrodermUltra™.
Reveal™ Peels are customized to address your skin's unique challenges, including excessive oil, superficial damage, acne, discoloration and even melasma. In less than an hour, you'll experience a fresh glow that lasts long after you've made it back to the office.


VeinRemedi™

Oh, what a wicked web they weave…those unsightly spider veins that creep up around our nose or bug us whenever we slip on a skirt.
It's finally safe to throw away the concealer and break out your short shorts because VeinRemedi™, Reveal's innovative combination of laser and light technologies, eliminates those annoying surface blood vessels and broken capillaries on the face, torso and legs.
Effective at treating wavy, thin, reddish-purple veins less than 3 mm in diameter, this non-surgical treatment targets your problem areas with heat and allows the body to safely collapse and absorb the vein.


FractionalRx™

Who doesn't love one-stop shopping? After all, when you can get everything you need to look fabulous at one place in one visit, it leaves you with plenty of time to show off your newfound goods. When it comes to aging skin, one-stop shopping doesn't get any better than the latest breakthrough technology that's the crème de la crème of nonsurgical skin solutions: FractionalRx™.
With a range of uses including improving wrinkles (like the deeper lines around the eyes and mouth), erasing sun damage and discoloration and correcting uneven skin tone and texture (including acne scarring), FractionalRx™ has become the go-to for achieving a smoother, more flawless complexion on the face, neck, chest and hands.
Unlike other resurfacing peels that required significant downtime, this age-defying treatment leaves you able to face the world immediately, with just the redness of a sunburn. Results are both immediate and progressive.


VISIA™ Complexion Analysis

A breakthrough in skin technology, VISIA™ scans the skin and record surface and subsurface conditions including wrinkles, spots (pigmentation), pores, evenness (color variation in the skin tone), porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in pores) and UV spots (characteristic of photodamage, typically from overexposure to sun).
Using multi-spectral digital analysis, the system enables Reveal's skincare professionals to design customized rejuvenation and skincare programs to more accurately and effectively address each client's complexion issues. The imaging system is then used to monitor the effectiveness of skin treatments and regimens over time, so that clients can actually track the changes in their skin by more than what they see in the mirror.


TummyTrim Abdominoplasty

The TummyTrim Abdominoplasty Program combines abdominoplasty (better known as a tummy tuck) with a customized series of ScarRepair and/or Resolve Stretch Mark Therapy to create the best results possible. Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the abdominal area. The abdomen is made flatter by removing excess skin and fat and often tightening the abdominal muscles.
The best candidate for TummyTrim is someone who, though in relatively good shape, has loose abdominal skin or a large fat deposit in the abdomen that does not respond to exercise and diet. In addition, women after pregnancy or patients who have experienced significant weight loss can particularly benefit from the procedure.
Surgery is performed using general anesthesia and typically takes between 2 and 3 hours, though these times can vary according to each patient's particular case.


Enhance Breast Augmentation

Enhance Breast Augmentation Program combines breast augmentation surgery with ScarRepair treatments to create the best and most natural results possible. Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enlarge a woman's breasts. This procedure can help to make the breasts more proportionate to the rest of the body, it can even out breasts which are different in size or shape, and it can enlarge and reshape breasts which have lost their fullness or shape due to weight loss, pregnancy, breast feeding, or age. Breast augmentation can also be used for reconstructive purposes on patients who have undergone mastectomy or on those with a congenital breast deformity.
The best candidate for breast augmentation is a woman over the age of 18 who is unhappy with her breast size or shape and looking to alter their appearance. Patients must also be psychologically stable and physically healthy and have realistic expectations.
Enhance Breast Augmentation takes approximately one hour to complete and is performed using general anesthesia.

BrightEyes Blepharoplasty

The BrightEyes Program combines blepharoplasty, the most popular eyelid surgery available, with a post-operative Botox® brow lift to create the best results possible.
Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure designed to provide a more youthful appearance to the eyes. This is done by removing excess fat, skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. This procedure can also improve vision in cases where excess skin of the upper eyelids has drooped to such an extent that it interferes with the peripheral vision. As gravity pulls everything down with age, the eyebrows follow. And as the outer parts of the eyebrows droop, the skin of the upper eyelids will look saggy, as if you had developed extra skin that was not there several years before. Trimming this "extra" skin can improve that droopy look.
The other reason for "tired eyes" is because of droopy eyelid fat. This fat is held back by a thin wall of fibrous tissue called the orbital septum, which sags over time. The fat, held firmly back by this wall in youth, can bulge with age, giving you "baggy" upper and lower eyelids. Eyelid lifts trim this extra fat and tighten the wall, restoring a youthful contour. An additional post-surgical Botox® brow lift provides additional lifting, arching and shaping to the brow which creates an even more open and youthful look.


Reveal Face Lift

Reveal Face Lift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that smoothes loose, sagging skin on the face and neck, tightens underlying tissues and muscles, and removes excess fat. Reveal Face Lift surgery can dramatically refresh and invigorate the lower two-thirds of the face. By removing excess fat and reshaping loose muscles and facial tissue, sagging in the cheeks and around the jaw is significantly reduced. Good candidates for Reveal Face Lift surgery are people in generally good health who wish to remove signs of aging — including sagging in the face and neck, facial wrinkles, and lines and creases on the forehead. The best candidates have facial skin that has started to sag but whose skin retains some elasticity. Additionally, a good candidate will have strong, well-defined bone structure. In determining whether a face lift is right for you, age is not necessarily the most important factor. Most Reveal Face Lift candidates are between 40 and 70 years old. However, the procedure can effectively enhance the appearance of people over 70, and some opt for the procedure in their twenties and thirties, often as a means of correcting hereditary conditions. In general, the condition of your skin and the features you would like to improve are more important considerations than your age. Reveal Face Lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia and is completed in approximately 4 hours, though surgical times may vary.

Reveal Brow Lift

Reveal Brow Lift surgery, also referred to as a forehead or eyebrow lift, allows patients to achieve a younger, more refreshed look by smoothing the forehead, reducing frown lines, and elevating the position of the eyebrow line to "open up the eyes".
This is accomplished by weakening the forehead muscles, removing excess skin that has lost its elasticity with age and lifting the skin to elevate and reposition brows.
Surgery is performed using general anesthesia and typically lasts 2 hours. The best candidates are healthy adults who are seeking to improve droopy eyebrows and deeper, heavier wrinkles in the forehead.

Reveal Neck Lift

Reveal Neck Lift surgery, or platysmaplasty, removes excess skin and fatty tissue from the neck and tightens neck muscles to redefine the jaw line and create a younger, firmer looking facial appearance. Reveal Neck Lift may be enhanced with liposuction and Botox®.
Good candidates for Reveal Neck Lift surgery include people with sagging neck skin or neck folds. The procedure is most effective for patients whose skin still has some elasticity, usually those in their forties to sixties; however, neck lifts can also be performed on patients in their seventies and eighties. Reveal Neck Lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia and takes approximately 1.5 hour to complete.
