True "lunch hour" wrinkle correction must meet specific criteria. It must be effective, either permanently or for a truly significant period of time. Treatment takes less than one hour. Finally, it must be entirely non-invasive. There must be no pain, redness, swelling, or post-treatment care, so the patient can immediately return to his or her daily routine.

Wrinkles can form where the skin is exposed to excessive solar radiation and in areas where excessive use of the facial muscles causes the skin to pleat, such as between and around the eyes, and at the corners of the mouth. Fine wrinkles due to sun damage are usually evenly distributed. The deeper lines occurring in specific areas are normally due to muscle activity. The effect of this wrinkling is a prematurely aged appearance. When treated promptly, many of these problems can be effectively corrected in a non-surgical, yet long lasting way.
An effective treatment program must address each of these problems. |

Retin-A
The majority of patients find that preparing the skin with Retin-A is extremely helpful in allowing the skin to repair itself from below the surface. It encourages the production of healthy, young collagen for pristine skin. A"lunch hour" program of wrinkle reduction can then address each of the skin surface problems without side effects. The first step is air-brushing away fine lines and sun-spots using powdered salt in a series of microdermabrasion treatments. These are painless and effective, and require no after-care so you can return to your normal routine right away. Six treatments spaced about two weeks apart will dramatically eradicate sun damage. |

Profect Laser
A 100 percent non-invasive Profect Laser treatment fills in the deeper wrinkles with your own collagen. This new painless light source causes the skin to increase its collagen levels underneath each wrinkle by a remarkable 160 percent after two treatment sessions spaced thirty days apart. The Profect Laser is exceptionally effective for correcting deeper standing wrinkles; there are no side effects and the radiant results last for years. |

Botox
Injections of Botox promote the reduction of pleating frown lines. Botox relaxes hyperactive muscles, eliminating the contractions that are a leading cause of deep wrinkles between and around the eyes, and raising drooping brows.
These treatments, used in conjunction with a consistent routine of skin care and nutrition, can dramatically reduce the effects of sun and aging without surgery or healing time.
