Hide wrinkles and creases with Botox®

Posted by Paul Gorman on Jul 11, 2016 7:30:00 AM

No matter how well we’re able to care for and preserve our skin throughout our lives, signs of aging are bound to catch up with us.

The daily facial expressions we make can cause fine lines, creases, and wrinkles to develop around our eyes and forehead, and make us look angry, tired, or sad — even when we’re not. Sometimes, factors such as stress and genetics will bring out wrinkles and creases, and make us look and feel older than we really are.

Fortunately, cosmetic injectables have the ability to treat and reverse visible signs of aging, and can help restore an overall youthful appearance to the face. Botox, which is the top selling FDA-approved product of its kind in the world, can inhibit the contractions of muscles that contribute to wrinkles and creases, and produce a softer, smoother, and younger appearance.

For years, anti-aging procedures focused on improving skin texture and tightening loose skin. But, there was never any way to restore lost volume or plump shallow contours, which are also extremely common signs of aging. Loss of collagen and the subsequent loss of plump, voluminous features can’t always be improved with face lift surgery and skin care treatments.

Autumn Doesn't Mean Goodbye to Sunscreen

Posted by Renee Marshall on Oct 15, 2013 5:59:00 PM

As summer comes to an end, and the Bay Area begins to cool off for fall and winter, at least we can stop worrying about sunscreen! No doubt that is what many of us think. Applying sunscreen is just one more "to do" in our already busy schedule. So, with the temperature dropping and the season changing, at least we can all forget about sunscreen until next summer comes back around. Right?
