Botox® Cosmetic is a non-surgical treatment that softens facial wrinkles that have developed over time. Botox® Cosmetic (otherwise known as Botulinum Toxin A) is a natural purified protein, which in very low doses relaxes the overactive muscles that cause the formation of frown lines and wrinkles. Botox® Cosmetic is a safe treatment which has been used to treat a variety of conditions for more than 15 years and it is now FDA-approved to treat the wrinkles between the eyebrows.

Dr. Lee is proud to be part of the Botox® Cosmetic Physician Network. She believes that not all Botox® treatments are the same. As a cosmetic surgery specialist, she has advanced knowledge of the complicated facial musculature. She uses this expertise to give you the best Botox® Cosmetic treatments possible. Dr. Lee will design a customized treatment for you based on your facial anatomy, to achieve a natural appearing enhancement of your beauty.

Restylane® is a dermal filler compound composed of Hyaluronic Acid, a safe and natural substance that already exists in your body. Hyaluronic acid provides volume and fullness to the skin. Restylane has been used safely by dermatologists and plastic surgeons since 1996 worldwide, and recently received FDA approval for use in the United States .

Restylane® is injected just below the skin's surface in order to plump up the skin and fill in deep facial creases and wrinkles. This is different than the way Botox™ works (Botox™ relaxes the facial muscles beneath the skin). Together,  Restylane® and Botox™ can be used together for a customized result. Restylane® has been shown to give long-lasting correction of moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds. Documented results have been shown to last six months, or longer in some patients. It has an excellent safety profile and because Restylane® is non-animal-based and fully biocompatible, allergy testing is not required. Make an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Lee to see if Restylane® is right for you.

Introducing Sculptra Aesthetic. Not an overnight miracle. Long lasting. Not a quick-fix. The first facial injectable that gives you subtle results over time. Replacing lost collagen. Giving you a more natural-looking appearance, without giving you away. A full treatment of Sculptra Aesthetic, an average of three injection sessions over a few months, can last up to two years. So you have more time to see how sensational subtle can be.

Sculptra Aesthetic is a new type of facial injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid, which helps to replace lost collagen. It helps correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles, and folds, that appear with aging by replacing lost collagen. The main ingredient is a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material that has been used by physicians for decades. It has been recently cleared by the FDA for cosmetic uses.

Facial fat loss, or lipoatrophy, is the loss of fat beneath the skin, which can result in sunken cheeks, indentations, and hollow eyes. Sculptra™ is a safe, synthetic, and biocompatible material that is injected below the surface of the skin in the area of fat loss. It provides a gradual and significant increase in skin thickness, improving the appearance of folds and sunken areas. No skin testing is required.

Dr. Lee is now offering new, lower prices on Sculptra injections!

Perlane®, like Restylane, is a dermal filler compound composed of Hyaluronic acid. Perlane® has larger gel particles and is intended to be injected deeper within the skin.

The new JUVEDERM XC formulation is enhanced for patient comfort. You can now get the smoothness you expect, with the improved comfort you want. JUVEDERM XC provides smooth and natural looking results and now a more comfortable experience – so everyone will notice but no one will know! In fact, studies show results of JUVEDERM last up to one year.

As we age, our skin changes. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. But, with JUVÉDERM® injectable gel, you don't have to just sit back and let it happen!

JUVEDERM is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid – a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. Your healthcare professional eases JUVÉDERM® injectable gel under the skin to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your “smile lines” or “parentheses” (nasolabial folds – the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).

JUVEDERM provides smooth and natural looking results.

JUVEDERM is the only hyaluronic acid (HA) filler FDA
approved to last up to 1 year.

New JUVEDERM  XC is now formulated with an anesthetic for a  more comfortable patient experience.

With JUVEDERM the injection process takes only about 15 minutes and results are immediate. Plus, there’s minimal recovery or downtime. So you can step into your doctor’s office for treatment and step right back into your life. And now with the newest formulation of JUVEDERM, the effects of lidocaine take place in seconds, potentially reducing the need for further anesthetic.

Hylaform (hylan-B gel) has been described as one of the best instant solutions for facial lines, wrinkles and contouring. In April 2004, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration approved Hylaform for use as an injectable wrinkle filler for those who seek to disguise the effects of aging. With this approval, it can now be used for the treatment of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds.

Hylaform was the fourth injectable wrinkle treatment to gain FDA approval, following the prior approvals of Restylane, Botox (botulinum toxin) and Collagen. Hylaform does compare favourably with these treatments in a number of areas. For example, unlike Collagen injections, no pre-treatment skin allergy tests are required with Hylaform injections.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that is found in human skin and throughout the body. Hylaform is a dermal filler that is made from a highly purified form of hyaluronic acid which mimics the effects of natural hyaluronic acid. This highly purified form of hyaluronic acid actually comes from the combs of specially bred roosters.

Normal, healthy skin contains several important components that help to keep it supple and young looking, and one of these is hyaluronic acid. Since hyaluronic acid is a natural sugar that is found in all living cells, it helps to maintain skin volume by attracting and binding over one thousand times its weight in water. As time passes, sunlight the aging process and other factors will cause the hyaluronic acid in your skin to diminish, your skin will then lose volume, and lines and wrinkles appear. With Hylaform, you can temporarily replace the hyaluronic acid that your skin has lost. When injected just below the surface of the skin, Hylaform adds volume to the skin, helping to smooth unwanted lines and wrinkles.

Captique™ Injectable is the newest FDA- approved non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid dermal filler. Captique, a clear gel containing a purified form of hyaluronic acid, adds volume lost during the aging process by temporarily smoothing out facial lines and wrinkles. Captique is injected just under the skin’s surface in order to temporarily correct wrinkles. For more information: Click Here.

LATISSE solution is a prescription treatment for hypotrichosis used to grow eyelashes, making them longer, thicker and darker.

RADIESSE is a calcium base gel which helps to restore volume and stimulate collagen and through time is absorbed through your body making this safe for use in the nasolabial, labiomental folds.

RADIESSE injections are frequently used to treat the smile lines around the mouth (the ‘nasolabial’ and ‘labiomental’ folds) and help restore volume in the cheek area.

The ideal way to achieve wrinkle reduction is by replenishing lost volume. With RADIESSE wrinkle filler, you welcome back your own natural collagen to smooth out the signs of aging. That's because RADIESSE wrinkle filler's unique formulation stimulates collagenesis – the production of new collagen – which results in increased volume for natural looking wrinkle correction that may last a year or more in many patients. It's also why more and more cosmetic surgeons, estheticians, and other medical professionals are choosing RADIESSE wrinkle filler for long-lasting facial rejuvenation.

Now FDA approved to enhance patient comfort with lidocaine mixing
