What is Botox?

Neurotoxin is a medicine administered to relax and/or shape the targeted muscles of the face and body.

Various neurotoxins, Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, and Jeuveau, are now widely available and commonly used to treat wrinkles.
Numerous studies have demonstrated near equivalency of efficacy among these different neurotoxins.

SuperBotoxSM, on the other hand, is an advanced technique of neurotoxin preparation and injection which affords more comfort, less bruising, more precision, efficacy, and possibly longer duration. The preparation involves use of proprietary pharmaceutical actives to enhance the onset and longevity of neurotoxin. The injection technique allows precise, blanket like absorption to facilitate more even, natural, and effective results. In addition, most patients preferred this technique. The treatment also has a characteristic blanched look for about half hour after the administration.

For patients seeking enhanced and longer lasting results, this treatment is the preferred option.

What is Renuva?

As we age, our skin envelope begins to thin out. Collagen and fat begin to shrink, giving us a hollow or sunken appearance.

Fillers are synthetic or autologous agents used to help restore the volume for the face and body.

Renuva is an all-natural off-the-shelf filler with extracellular matrix rich in regenerative properties that acts as a scaffold, allowing the body to recruit new fat cells to attach to it. Made from human allograft tissue, Renuva contains the same collagen, growth factors, and proteins as autologous fat and is a completely acellular, safe, and long-lasting alternative to fat transfer with liposuction.

How does this treatment differ from the other options?

1. Long lasting volume restoration with staged sessions
2. Easier than fat injection
3. Indirect lifting as compared to the direct lifting of facelifts

Specific areas of facial collagen or fat loss are the addressed with serial sessions monthly injections. The treatments are sized to your dimensions and customized to your specific facial needs.

Several sessions are needed. The procedure can take one hour in an office setting. Procedure usually need only local anesthesia.

One’s own platelets derived platelets rich plasma, PRP, is harvested and concentrated to derive HDGF(high density growth factors). Prepared scaffolding agent is then mixed with the HDGF, along with blood CD 34 stem cells or placental stem cells, if needed, to create a suspension of biological seeds, micronutrients, and scaffold. The suspension is then “activated” to promote release of the numerous growth factors from one’s platelets.

Once injected, more voluminous heart-shaped face is instantly creasted, while adding nourishment, hydration, and repair to the skin.

Further activation and amplification can be achieved by exterenal or internal energy using radiofrequency or laser to kick start the biochemical stimulation. This process of using light stimulation to enhance photosensitizer agents to jump start the regenerative and reparative process is called Photodynamic Rejuvenation. Commonly used energy include low level laser(LLL), radiofrequency, or infrared laser. Prior to starting of photodyanmic session, photosensitizer and non-photosensitizer antioxidants are administered. Subsequently, external light or radiofrequency can be applied for a brief duration, or internal inside-the-skin laser can be used for a brief duration to start the photodynamic process.
Generally, several sessions are required. The treatment takes about our hour in an outpatient clinic setting. Procedures usually require only local anesthesia.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why do the non-injected areas next to the injected areas a swell after injection?
A: Local anesthesia and lymph tend to pool in gravity dependent areas. These areas include eyelids, nose, lower cheeks, and jowls.

Q: Why are injectable fillers are done in stages instead of in one session?
A: Results are more precise, longer lasting, and more complete when injections are done in stages.

Q: Why are all the injectable filler boxes open during the first session?
A: All unused prepared or mixed medicine must be packaged and labeled with the recipient patient’s identification.

How is the treatment done?

Following local anesthesia, fillers are injected slowly and retrograde in low pressure settings to slowly, incrementally, and gradually restore the lost volume of the targeted skin sites.

Specific areas of facial collagen or fat loss are addressed with serial sessions monthly injections. The treatments are sized to your dimensions and customized to your specific facial needs.

Generally, several sessions are required.

The treatment takes about one hour in an outpatient clinic setting.

Local anesthesia is used.

What is Super Collagen Lift?

As we age, our skin envelope begins to thin out. Collagen and fat begin to shrink, giving us a hollow or sunken appearance.

Fillers are synthetic or autologous agents used to help restore the volume for the face and body.

Now, you can gradually reshape your face while regenerating your own real hydrating collagen with much better and longer results than fillers alone.

This treatment uses the principle of regenerative medicine called tissue engineering. To understand the principles of regenerative medicine, think of how grapes are grown. To grow grapes on the vines, you need four things: seeds, nutrition, vines, and sunlight. Seeds determine the source of life and the quantity of grapes. Nutrition such as water, soil, and fertilizers affect the quality of grapes; the vines, create the shape of the grapevines; lastly, the sun, acting as a source of energy, starts the growth process.

In living tissues, seeds are stem cells, which have regenerative and repairing abilities. Nutrition is one’s own growth factors, which are found in our blood. Frameworks are synthetic shaping agents, which are found in synthetic scaffolds. Laser or radiofrequency acts as energy stimulation to spark biochemical growth.

Together, these four agents, including stem cells, growth factors, scaffolds, and energetic stimulation constitute the principle of regenerative medicine. Using this regenerative principle, a state-of-the-art technique, now called Super Collagen Lift, is utilized to “regrow” one’s collagen which was once lost in time.

Super Collagen LiftSM, a novel non-surgical face lifting technique, combines the shaping effect of the scaffolding agent Sculptra, platelet rich plasma (PRP) derived growth factors, blood CD 34 stem cells or placental stem cells, and low level laser photostimulation. This procedure gradually stimulates your lost collagen, restores facial shape, smoothes out facial wrinkles, and even nourishes the skin. Sculptra acts as a synthetic scaffolding agent, providing shape. PRP derived high density growth factors nourishes the skin. The blood CD34 stem cells or placental stem cells seeds and repairs the aging skin. Low level laser provides the energy stimulation to activate and invigorates the healing capacities of stem cells and growth factors.

How does this treatment differ from the other options?

1. Biologically regenerate and repair one’s own collagen and microcirculation
2. Much longer lasting and economical than synthetic fillers
3. More comfortable than Sculptra alone
4. Easier than fat injection
5. Indirect lifting as compared to the direct lifting of facelifts
6. More contouring than Botox
7. non-surgical compared to implants
8. Proprietarily researched and developed patent office registered regenerative medicine technique
9. Performed by the most experienced center in this technique in America

What is a Alexandrite Laser?

Laser is a focused beam of intense, “single-colored” light and heat energy with a specific wavelength but variable intensity and pulse duration designed to selectively interact with specific tissues of the skin.

The effect of laser depends on wavelength, degree of cooling, intensity of energy or fluence, pulse duration ranging from picoseconds to milliseconds, the intended targets, and skin type of the individuals. The effect of laser on tissues is specific and is based on the principle of selective photothermolysis.

Most lasers thus targets primarily very specific components of the skin. As such, combination treatments with other modalities and lasers generally produce broader and more effective outcome.

Laser can be used to treat the following conditions:

1. Skin tone
2. Melasma
3. Postinflammatory pigmentation
4. Diffuse pigmentation
5. Pigmented spots
6. Non-pigmented spots

What is Super Collagen Lift?

As we age, our skin envelope begins to thin out. Collagen and fat begin to shrink, giving us a hollow or sunken appearance.

Fillers are synthetic or autologous agents used to help restore the volume for the face and body.

Now, you can gradually reshape your face while regenerating your own real hydrating collagen with much better and longer results than fillers alone.
This treatment uses the principle of regenerative medicine called tissue engineering. To understand the principles of regenerative medicine, think of how grapes are grown. To grow grapes on the vines, you need four things: seeds, nutrition, vines, and sunlight. Seeds determine the source of life and the quantity of grapes. Nutrition such as water, soil, and fertilizers affect the quality of grapes; the vines, create the shape of the grapevines; lastly, the sun, acting as a source of energy, starts the growth process.

In living tissues, seeds are stem cells, which have regenerative and repairing abilities. Nutrition is one’s own growth factors, which are found in our blood. Frameworks are synthetic shaping agents, which are found in synthetic scaffolds. Laser or radiofrequency acts as energy stimulation to spark biochemical growth.

Together, these four agents, including stem cells, growth factors, scaffolds, and energetic stimulation constitute the principle of regenerative medicine. Using this regenerative principle, a state-of-the-art technique, now called Super Collagen Lift, is utilized to “regrow” one’s collagen which was once lost in time.

Super Collagen LiftSM, a novel non-surgical face lifting technique, combines the shaping effect of the scaffolding agent Sculptra, platelet rich plasma (PRP) derived growth factors, blood CD 34 stem cells or placental stem cells, and low level laser photostimulation. This procedure gradually stimulates your lost collagen, restores facial shape, smoothes out facial wrinkles, and even nourishes the skin. Sculptra acts as a synthetic scaffolding agent, providing shape. PRP derived high density growth factors nourishes the skin. The blood CD34 stem cells or placental stem cells seeds and repairs the aging skin. Low level laser provides the energy stimulation to activate and invigorates the healing capacities of stem cells and growth factors.

How does this treatment differ from the other options?

1. Biologically regenerate and repair one’s own collagen and microcirculation
2. Much longer lasting and economical than synthetic fillers
3. More comfortable than Sculptra alone
4. Easier than fat injection
5. Indirect lifting as compared to the direct lifting of facelifts
6. More contouring than Botox

What is Exilis?

Non-surgical face lifting refers to skin tightening technologies which tone, lift, and contour the face and neck without surgery. These technologies can re-build collagen, condense unwanted fat, and tighten the superficial muscular layer of the skin. Specifically, these technologies tighten loose skin on the brows, eyelids, the jowls and neck, and under the chin.

Fundamentally, all skin technology uses focused deep heat to achieve skin tightening. Currently, there are three ways of achieving the skin tightening: laser, radiofrequency (RF), and ultrasound. Each modality targets different depths of the skin, emits different type of heat patterns, and thus produce different clinical benefits for different conditions.

Commonly, combination of laser, radiofrequency, and ultrasound produce faster and better results. And further combining with botox and fillers create the best overall results.

Exilis
Exilis uses radiofrequency energy to product skin tightening. The procedure uses advanced mono-directional diffuse radiofrequency to smoothen and tighten the skin. This treatment stimulates collagen of superficial and medium depth and tightens the fibromuscular fascia of the skin.
As a cost effective option, this procedure is especially suitable for heat sensitive, thin-skin individuals who can receive multiple sessions of treatments.

Correctable conditions include early stages of saggy brows, crow’s feet, neck laxity, upper neck laxity, lower neck lines, texture, and body skin looseness.

How does this treatment differ from the other options?

1. More comfortable than Ulthera or Thermage
2. Multi-session treatment
3. The most cost effective option
4. Suitable for thin skin areas
5. Appropriate for heat sensitive individuals
6. More economical solution than surgery

What Conditions May Be Treated?

1. Thick or thin skin
2. Nasolabial lines
3. Saggy jowls
4. Neck laxity
5. Texture

Whom is the treatment for?

1. Patients with realistic expectation
2. Patients in good healthy conditions
3. Stable weight without frequent or excess weight gain or loss

Whom is the treatment not for?

1. Patients with unrealistic expectation
2. Patients with low blood sugar, dehydration, acute disease, autoimmune disorder, blood disorder, cancer, or on bleeding thinning medications.

How is the treatment done?

For the radiofrequency, the areas of the brows, crow’s feet, jowls, upper neck, and the lower neck are emphasized. The face is marked for contouring and lubricated with gel. The transducers are the then applied onto the skin to emit diffuse electrical energy to the superficial and medium depths of the skin. Multiple passes are performed in a directional lifting manner. Heat sensation will be felt.

Generally, a combination package treatment is required.

The treatment takes about half hour in an outpatient clinic setting
.
Oral anesthesia may be used.

What results may be expected?

1. Better brow position
2. Smoother crow’s feet
3. Lifted jowls
4. Tighter upper neck
5. Smoother lower neck lines

How many shots are used?
The time of radiofrequency lasts about a hour. The energy targets only the necessary areas of thick collagen and fribromuscular layer. Areas with thin collagen or absent fibromuscular layer will often further flatten down with heat energy and thus intense energy to the deep depth to these areas is not needed.

Do more pulses, shots, or lines make better results?

The short answer is “yes” for areas where one wants flattening. The answer is “no” for areas where one does not want loss of volume.

For these areas which excess plumpness or volume is not desired, more energy via more pulses, shots, or lines to these areas will flattening the areas down.

Areas where plumpness or volume is not desirable and thus enhanced energy may be warranted include:
1. lower cheeks
2. nasolabial prominence
3. jowls
4. double chin.

For areas which plumpness or volume is not desired, more energy via more pulses, shots, or lines to these areas will actually decrease the flattening the areas down, and produce more hollowed appearance.

Areas where plumpness or volume is to be maintained and thus excessive energy is not warranted include:
1. Forehead
2. Temples
3. upper cheeks

With combination technique, both ultrasound and radiofrequency energies are performed, all on areas where flattening where contraction is desired. Combination results are better than single modality ultrasound or radiofrequency alone.

Thus, where the skin tightening is targeted affects the aesthetic outcome and can either rejuvenate or age your look!

Does skin tightening with a single modality of laser, radiofrequency, or ultrasound provide the best skin tightening result?

The short answer is combination technique, not single modality, produce the best results.

Laser
1. focused columns of superficial heat energy, with gaps of no energy between columns
2. targets superficial collagen

Radiofrequency
1. uniform, radiant, circumferential, wavelike heat without gaps
2. targets deep collagen and fat more comfortably

Ultrasound:
1. focused columns of deep heat energy, with gaps of no energy between columns
2. targets deep collagen and muscle with intense heat.  
3. While ultrasound can also be used for fat, monoploar radiofrequency provides far more uniform heat for better fat reduction.

The efficacy of skin tightening depends on:

1. Levels of heat:  superficial heat(superficial collagen), deep focused heat(deep collagen and muscle), and deep radiant heat(fat contraction).
2. Amount of heat
3. Sessions of heat
4. Combined treatment with other modalities such as laser, radiofrequency, botox, and fillers.

When will one see the results?

The results will be seen gradually within two months. After the swelling subsides with few days, the results will look more and more natural.

How long do the results last?

Results long one year or more. Duration of effect is similar regardless of sessions of treatments, but the magnitude of change will be determined by the number of sessions.

How to maintain or enhance my results?

Additional maintenance is required.
Healthy eating and exercise are helpful to enhance results.
Further treatment may be recommended to further results.

What is the recovery like?

Recovery lasts one day
Mild redness, swelling, pain, and occasional tingling are expected.
Prescription pain medications are generally not necessary.
Most people return to work and activities in one day.

What is RF SonoTight^SM?

Non-surgical face lifting refers to skin tightening technologies which tone, lift, and contour the face and neck without surgery. These technologies can re-build collagen, condense unwanted fat, and tighten the superficial muscular layer of the skin. Specifically, these technologies tighten loose skin on the brows, eyelids, the jowls and neck, and under the chin.

Fundamentally, all skin technology uses focused deep heat to achieve skin tightening. Currently, there are three ways of achieving the skin tightening: laser, radiofrequency (RF), and ultrasound. Each modality targets different depths of the skin, emits different type of heat patterns, and thus produce different clinical benefits for different conditions.

Commonly, combination of laser, radiofrequency, and ultrasound produce faster and better results. And further combining with botox and fillers create the best overall results.

RF SonoTightSM is the most ideal approach which combines radiofrequency and ultrasound energy with Botox injection for skin tightening. This innovative technique combines the special face lifting effects of SuperBotox, the highly focused, precise ultrasound energy of Ulthera, and the diffuse radiofrequency energy of RF LipoTight. Furthermore, all layers and depth of skin are targeted. The treatment tightens and lifts the skin.
This package treatment stimulates collagen of superficial, medium and deep depth, and tightens the fibromuscular fascia of the skin.
The program consists of SuperBotox face lifting, Ulthera ultrasound, and RF LipoTight radiofrequency applications.

Compared to the slower and subtle results of ultrasound or radiofrequency alone, this treatment produces much faster results and more dramatic results. Compared to laser, this combination treatment penetrates skin more deeply. Furthermore, compared to ultrasound, radiofrequency, or injection alone, RF SonoTight is more effective at tightening than any single modality alone. Compared to surgery, this treatment is much more economical yet provides tightening results without the down time and expense.

Correctable conditions include early stages of saggy brows, crow’s feet, droopy cheeks, nasolabial lines, saggy jowls, double chin, upper neck laxity, lower necklines, and texture.

As the most costly option, this program is particularly suitable for thick or thin skin, heat-tolerant, wrinkled individuals who can receive multiple sessions to receive the best results.

RF SonoTightSM Face
This program specifically addresses the face for the areas of droopy cheeks, nasolabial lines, saggy jowls, double chin, upper neck laxity, lower necklines, and texture.

This treatment combines muscle tightening Ulthera, collagen smoothening LipoTight, and muscle lifting SuperBotox.
RF SonoTightSM Brows and Eyelids

For the SuperBotox lifting, the cheeks or neck are emphasized. SuperBotx can effectively lifting the cheeks or neck.

For the ultrasound, the targeted areas for contouring and lubricated with gel. While imaging the skin layers, transducers are then applied onto the skin to emit highly focused and precise sound energy to the medium and deep depths of the skin. Multiple passes are performed in a directional lifting manner. Heat sensation will be felt.

For the radiofrequency, the targeted areas are marked for contouring and lubricated with gel. The transducers are the then applied onto the skin to emit diffuse electrical energy to the superficial and medium depths of the skin. Multiple passes are performed in a directional lifting manner. Heat sensation will be felt.

Generally, a combination package treatment is required.

The treatment takes about a hour in an outpatient clinic setting

Oral anesthesia may be used.

What results may be expected?

1. Better brow position
2. Smoother crow’s feet
3. Lifted jowls
4. Tighter upper neck
5. Smoother lower neck lines

How many shots are used?
The number of shots for ultrasound will vary around 650, while the time of radiofrequency lasts about a hour. The energy targets only the necessary areas of thick collagen and fribromuscular layer. Areas with thin collagen or absent fibromuscular layer will often further flatten down with heat energy and thus intense energy to the deep depth to these areas is not needed.

Do more pulses, shots, or lines make better results?

The short answer is “yes” for areas where one wants flattening. The answer is “no” for areas where one does not want loss of volume.

For these areas which excess plumpness or volume is not desired, more energy via more pulses, shots, or lines to these areas will flattening the areas down.

Areas where plumpness or volume is not desirable and thus enhanced energy may be warranted include:
1. lower cheeks
2. nasolabial prominence
3. jowls
4. double chin.

For areas which plumpness or volume is not desired, more energy via more pulses, shots, or lines to these areas will actually decrease the flattening the areas down, and produce more hollowed appearance.

Areas where plumpness or volume is to be maintained and thus excessive energy is not warranted include:
1. Forehead
2. Temples
3. upper cheeks

With combination technique, both ultrasound and radiofrequency energies are performed, all on areas where flattening where contraction is desired. Combination results are better than single modality ultrasound or radiofrequency alone.

Thus, where the skin tightening is targeted affects the aesthetic outcome and can either rejuvenate or age your look!

Does skin tightening with a single modality of laser, radiofrequency, or ultrasound provide the best skin tightening result?

The short answer is combination technique, not single modality, produce the best results.

Laser
1. focused columns of superficial heat energy, with gaps of no energy between columns
2. targets superficial collagen

Radiofrequency

1. uniform, radiant, circumferential, wavelike heat without gaps
2. targets deep collagen and fat more comfortably

Ultrasound:

1. focused columns of deep heat energy, with gaps of no energy between columns
2. targets deep collagen and muscle with intense heat.
3. While ultrasound can also be used for fat, monoploar radiofrequency provides far more uniform heat for better fat reduction.

The efficacy of skin tightening depends on:

1. Levels of heat:  superficial heat(superficial collagen), deep focused heat(deep collagen and muscle), and deep radiant heat(fat contraction).
2. Amount of heat
3. Sessions of heat
4. Combined treatment with other modalities such as laser, radiofrequency, botox, and fillers.

When will one see the results?

The results will be seen gradually within two months. After the swelling subsides with few days, the results will look more and more natural.

How long do the results last?

Results long one year or more. Duration of effect is similar regardless of sessions of treatments, but the magnitude of change will be determined by the number of sessions.

How to maintain or enhance my results?

Additional maintenance is required.
Healthy eating and exercise are helpful to enhance results.
Further treatment may be recommended to further results

What is the recovery like?

Recovery lasts one day.
Mild redness, swelling, pain, and occasional tingling are expected.
Prescription pain medications are generally not necessary.
Most people return to work and activities in one day.

Fat Grafting

In individuals with adequate fat for harvesting, fat grafting is achieved from liposuction. Sculpted areas of excess fat may include the jowls, face, abdomen, flanks, back, the tail bone, thighs, and many other sites. The harvested fat can then processed and injected in layered fashion into the specified area. Additional sessions may be required.

General anesthesia is generally required.

Buttock Implants

In individuals without adequate fat for harvesting, buttock augmentation is achieved by implants. Additional liposuction can still performed. Implants are inserted below the buttock muscle via the natural creases of the area. Additional sessions may be required.

General anesthesia is generally required.

When will one see the results?

The results are seen in two weeks.

How long do the results last?

Combined with proper diet and exercise, results are long-lasting with further treatments suggested for maintenance.

Whom is the treatment not for?

1. Patients with unrealistic expectation
2. Patients with low blood sugar, dehydration, acute disease, autoimmune disorder, blood disorder, cancer, or on bleeding thinning medications.

How is the treatment done?

Via multiple small incisions, delicate cannulas are used to suction the excess fat. Extraction methods may deploy one of more of the following: manual, motorized, laser, ultrasound, or radiofrequency extraction. Sculpted areas of excess fat in areas may include the jowls, neck, abdomen, flanks, back, the tail bone, thighs, and many other sites. The harvested fat can then processed and injected in layered fashion into the specified area. Additional sessions may be required.

As an added option, the extracted fat can be modified and injected for tissue augmentation. In this state-of-the-art procedure, the extracted stem-cell rich fat cells can be processed into small-particle sized fat cells, with the stem cells extracted, and high density growth factors from platelet rich plasma added for enhanced augmentation, regenerative, and anti-aging effects.

Furthermore, fat-derived stem cells preparation can be made. LipoStem, the laser stimulated, antioxidant energized, and autologous blood stem cell enriched fat stem cells are injected intramuscularly or subcutaneously. In a surgical center, liposuction is performed under local anesthesia to remove about 200 cc of fat. This fat is then processed with specialized equipments to fractionate to produce a stromal vascular fraction containing the fat stem cells. LipoStem is the then produced by laser stimulation, antioxidant energization, and autologous blood stem cell enrichment.

Local or general anesthesia may be used.
