Three Non-Surgical Facial Procedures for Rejuvenated Skin

women-has-facial-treatmentWhile I, Dr. John L. LeRoy, specialize in plastic surgery and am known for my range of Band Aid procedures, including the Band Aid facelift that I developed in 1997, I understand that sometimes my patients are looking for non-surgical ways to freshen up their look. My non-surgical offerings can treat a wide variety of facial concerns and can help to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation and more. I’ve highlighted a few of the most popular treatments that I commonly recommend for those looking to refresh their face without the need for surgery.

Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing

My Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment is an ideal choice for those interested in non-surgical facial rejuvenation. I use DOT laser therapy to create microscopic dots on the face which causes the skin to generate new collagen and healthy skin cells. This increase in collagen production helps to improve the look of sun damage, acne and facial scarring, wrinkles, fine lines and overall skin texture.

Since Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing targets a multitude of facial concerns, ideal candidates for this procedure are patients of many ages, including those who have scarring or acne scarring or may have just started to notice signs of aging and feel it’s too early for a surgical procedure. Additionally, those who have undergone a plastic surgery procedure and want to refresh their look or those who want to target specific areas of the face through non-surgical means may also choose to have Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing. This procedure is performed in-office with gentle numbing and has less downtime than traditional laser resurfacing procedures.

Cosmetic Facial Injections

Facial injections have gained in popularity over the years for good reason. These treatments are non-surgical, take less than 15 minutes to administer and can give you a more natural and youthful appearance. In order to provide my patients with the best treatment for their skin, I offer Botox® and Dysport® injections and facial fillers, such as Restylane®, Juvéderm® and Radiesse®.

All cosmetic facial injections work to minimize the appearance of wrinkles, but they tackle the issue in two different ways. Botox® and Dysport® are commonly applied to the forehead and eyebrow area to relax the muscles and smooth out fine lines. Facial fillers target wrinkles on the lower face, such as the cheeks and mouth, and help to restore volume in these areas.

Band Aid Lip Augmentation

To help rejuvenate the appearance of thin or aging lips, I offer my signature Band Aid Lip Augmentation procedure. This non-surgical treatment uses Restylane® or Juvéderm® products along with a special technique I developed to shape and plump lips in order to balance your facial features and match your cosmetic goals. There may be some temporary minor swelling. The recovery period is quick with no downtime and the results typically last for up to six months.

As you can see, I offer a wide range of non-surgical facial treatments to help you rejuvenate and refresh your appearance.
