Dr. Brauer, Board Certified Dermatologist,

talks about BOTOX and Cosmetic Fillers for

young women.

 

DR. BRAUER

How would you council women in their 20s and 30s about BOTOX?

This is such an interesting subject because at first blush you would think that women in their 20s and 30s should not need any cosmetic repair. But it is not just age that creates frown lines, it’s that we are genetically prone to frowning. You may know someone in the 80s that does not have frown lines naturally and someone else in their 20s that has very deep frown lines. It is in those individuals that we can prevent the progression of those motion lines by starting BOTOX earlier.

What’s your advise on cosmetic fillers like Restylane, Perlane and Juvederm?

In younger women the number one reason we use cosmetic filler is for enhancing lips. As women age, into their 40s, we use cosmetic fillers more for nasal labial folds, more commonly known as “parenthesis lines” around the mouth. We also use it to repair age and sun related lip lines.

 

DID YOU KNOW...........

…that Dr. Buscaglia is an expert at “blended” laser resurfacing? 
Utilizing as many as 4 different lasers in a single treatment, he is able to maximize the potential of each of those devices for an optimal outcome.  By targeting wrinkles, textural irregularities, sun damage, dyspigmentation and even acne scarring - all at once – the results can be dramatic!  Blended laser resurfacing is an aggressive, but highly effective procedure.

…that Dr. Brauer is now doing Liposculpture? 
A minimally invasive form of body contouring that is done in the office, under local anesthesia.  It is perfect for reshaping stubborn body areas that are resistant to weight loss and has minimal risk and short downtime.  Targeted areas include abdomen, inner thighs, outer thighs, inner knees, flanks, hips, bra-fold areas, upper arms, chin & jowls.

…that Jennifer Brien, RPAC, is a Fraxel Laser Specialist who has consistently kept our practice in the top 5 in the USA, and has performed thousands of Fraxel laser treatments?   
By tailoring Fraxel laser parameters, she can target superficial pigmentation, diffuse wrinkling, surgical, traumatic or acne scarring.  Fraxel Re-StoreTM laser resurfacing is a minimal downtime procedure that is balanced nicely with tangible results.

…that Peter D’Auria, RPAC, is the only Physician Assistant in WNY who specializes in laser tattoo removal?
Peter utilizes up to four different lasers to target multiple colors within a tattoo, allowing for precise, non-scarring removal. Although multiple treatments are required, successful removal of unwanted tattoos is now a reality.

…that “cheeks are the new lips”? 

The newest trend in fillers is facial recontouring.   We are no longer limited to “filling lines”,   but instead can reshape facial structure to “look more like the you that you remember”.  When you age, your cheek bone is resorbed, fat pads in the cheeks are lost and soft tissue in the area loses integrity.  This can contribute to wrinkles, folds and the appearance of lower eyelid fat protrusion.  The constellation of these changes can give a tired, gaunt appearance.  Cheek augmentation with fillers, can restore the appearance of your more youthful cheekbones.
