As we age almost all of us begin to see signs of our skin changing. Fine lines, wrinkles and even deep furrow marks appear on our faces and as our skin slowly loses its elasticity and youthful firmness. Lifestyle factors, such as excessive sun exposure, an unbalanced diet, lack of regular exercise and smoking can also become contributing factors in the change of our appearance. Often our jobs require us to sit in front of the computer for long hours on end, squinting at the screen and using our facial muscles much more than normal. Unfortunately the result of our everyday lifestyle is tired, haggard looking skin that in no way matches how we feel about ourselves on the inside. The aging process and the loss of the skin’s youthfulness is not the only problem that can lead patients to seek Botox treatment. Excessive underarm sweating can be an extremely embarrassing and often unpleasant predicament and many people suffering from this problem feel that their quality of life could be significantly improved if they can address and stop this issue. Thankfully, Botox treatment can be a fairly painless, minimally invasive and cost effective solution for reversing the aging process and to stop unwanted excessive underarm sweating. More

Wrinkles and lines around the eyes, mouth and nose can add years to our appearance. Often as the skin ages it not only loses elasticity but becomes severely dehydrated not only on the surface but in the deeper layers as well. Achieving youthful, firm and smooth skin is a great way of dramatically improving our looks and regaining the skin’s natural glow. Juvederm, a wrinkle-filler that is largely based on hyaluronic acid, can help with wrinkles and lines while offering a non-surgical solution to aging skin.
Juvederm is hyaluronic acid-based injectable filler that can take off years from the patient’s appearance. Juvederm’s secret lies in hyaluronic acid’s ability to absorb 1000 times its own weight in water and to bind to the skin’s natural collagen. The result is more volume underneath the wrinkle lines, smoother and overall tighter skin. Juvederm works best for smile lines (the fold running from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth) as well as other facial wrinkles but can be used to improve the appearance of facial scars too.
One of the advantages of Juvederm filler is that it does not involve any complicated anesthesia or long time spent in the operating theatre. The whole procedure typically lasts around 15 minutes and patients can get back to their normal lives straight afterwards. As opposed to surgical procedures there is no long recovery time. Though there is no way to avoid some discomfort while injecting the filler the practitioner might offer to use topical anesthetics to make the procedure more comfortable. After the procedure some redness or swelling may occur but should disappear within a few hours after the treatment. Results of Juvederm filler can last up to a year after which a top up procedure is recommended to maintain long lasting, natural and beautiful results.

Treating lip lines that are severe depends on the patient’s expectation. If you want the
lines “gone” you will need deep skin resurfacing with either a laser, chemicals or dermabrasion(not to be mistaken for microdermabrasion).
These resurfacing procedures are painful and require weeks and months to heal. These procedures may also result in an unnatural appearing skin condition where the skin appears white and waxy looking, or the skin may ever discolor a darker color.
For some patients, using a combo of fillers and Botox can significantly improve the appearance of smokers lines. When Juvederm filler is placed with a micro-needle technique utilized by Dr. Keefe, the fine lines can improve. Tiny amounts of filler are placed with a tiny needle into each line individually. This must be repeated 2-3 times about 4-8 weeks apart.
Botox is then injected in very small doses to calm that muscle around the mouth. Remember, it is the muscle contraction around that mouth that causes the lines! Just look in your mirror and tighten your lips hard! If you see lines, you can see how your muscle causes it!
The Botox Cosmetic will weaken this muscle which will help prevent the lines from worsening. You must consider how you want these lines to appear 1-5 years from now! Start Botox around your mouth now and be Proactive! Sometimes this Botox around your lips can even make your lips appear fuller and younger!

Smokers lines or peri-oral lines are wrinkles that form on the lips from using the muscle that encircles the mouth.
Smokers get these wrinkles from constantly wrapping their lips around cigarettes and using the muscle.
This is the same reason why drinking from plastic water bottles is bad.
It is all about the muscle contraction and thinning skin in this area.
There are two nice treatments that can not only improve the appearance of Smokers’ Lines, but also prevent them from WORSENING.
Botox around the mouth for Smokers’ Lines must be injected regularly!! The filler will last for months and maybe a year or two.
