So you’re looking to smooth out a few wrinkles, enhance your lips or improving minor skin textures, dermal fillers may be just the answer. Two of the most popular fillers are Juvederm and Restylane. Both are perfect for achieving youthful results…and quick. Most patients walk out the door, seeing instant results and improvements. Both fillers have their own respective advantages and applications so it’s best to consult with your doctor.

At Renaissance Cosmetic Laser, we offer a variety of fillers, including Juvederm and Restylane. Make an appointment today, come in for a short visit, and leave looking 10 years younger. Wrinkle and skin imperfections are a part of life, however, today’s advancements in cosmetic surgery and applications make the aging process much more tolerable.

Wishing you great health and beautiful skin!

Botox 101

Dr Kim — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 23:31:19 +0000

Botox is often compared to a facelift. The Obviously difference is Botox is far less expensive, quick and painless and results are seen relatively fast. Botox injections (Botulism toxin), are injected under the skin to smooth out lines and wrinkles.

One important note regarding Botox is the price. Often times, Botox injections are advertised across a spectrum of prices, sometimes as low as $6.00 per unit. You’ll see other prices as high as $18.00 per unit. So what’s the difference? Well, Botox injections can be mixed with water, thereby diluting the actual Botox mixture. By this dilution, the longevity and effectiveness of the Botox injection(s) will be much less than if you were being injected with 100% Botox. Unfortunately, there’s a widespread variance among prices and actual Botox used for injections. We at Renaissance Cosmetic Laser offer our clients a number of options. Depending on what our client wants, how long the Botox should last, how much they would like to pay, etc., we offer 3 levels of Botox, each with differing levels of Botox. Prices range from $6-$18. One of the first questions you need to ask your Doctor is “What percentage of Botox is used in your injections?” The answer will tell you how long the results will last. Afterall, you should get what you pay for, right?

Welcome!

Cosmetic surgery can be a daunting thought for most people. Advances in modern technologies and laser methods have made many of today’s procedures safe and require relatively short downtimes. Results are usually seen within a week and the cost of procedures are a fraction of what they were years ago.

I’ve had the privilege of providing multifaceted care for women for many years. A lot of my patients were women in their child-bearing years, who gave me the honor of delivering their children time and time again. I’ve nurtured the physical and emotional evolution of women as they’ve aged. Cosmetic enhancement is the next natural stage in my ongoing care for women. The sacrifices that women make as a wife or mother are many. Now is the time to put yourself first and to take care of you through rejuvenation.
