Non-Surgical Treatment In New York City:
Perlane® Injections
Perlane® and BOTOX® Cosmetic make an excellent combination. BOTOX® numbs the muscles that pull the skin and create wrinkles, while Perlane® diminishes the visibility of moderate to severe wrinkles and folds.
Perlane®
Perlane is an injectable mid-dermal hyaluronic acid filler, used for softening heavy wrinkles and facial folds that require the larger particles to adequately fill the recesses. For this reason Perlane is also a popular choice for lip augmentation, facial contouring, and filling recessed scars. The hyaluronic acid in Perlane naturally occurs in skin and other tissue, and supplements the body's natural supply, which decreases with age. Perlane has a variety of uses including:
Procedure length
The length of the procedure can range between 30 minutes and 1 hour, depending on the number of areas treated.
Recovery
As very small needles are used, there is only minimal discomfort and no down-time. There may be a minor feeling of tightness in the areas surrounding the injections that will dissipate soon after treatment.
The Result
Patients treated with Perlane will see a noticeable reduction in deep skin creases, and an increase in volume in areas of the face targeted for augmentation. Perlane is biodegradable; as such the results are not permanent, but tend to last six months to eight months.
What other patients want
Many patients combine Perlane with BOTOX® Cosmetic to relax the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, Thermage™ to tighten the skin, and Photorejuvenation to even skin tone.
