At LaJolie we offer the latest aesthetic treatments designed to help you look as good as you feel.
Consults
As we age, we develop lines, wrinkles, and sagging in our cheeks, around our eyes, nose, and mouth, including tear troughs, vertical wrinkles, and lip thinning and flattening. This occurs because of bone resoprtion, migration of fat pads, and a decrease in the production of collagen and elastin, proteins in the skin that maintain its elasticity and firmness, as well hyaluronic acid, which retain waters keeping tissues well lubricated and moist. There are many procedures that can be done to create a more fresh and youthful appearance as we age. We offer free consults to discuss what combination of procedures will give you the best results.
Neurotoxins
At LaJolie, we use both Botox® and Dysport® to soften the wrinkles that develop with age. Botox® and Dysport® are neurotoxins that can be injected into facial muscles to provide temporary improvement of moderate to severe wrinkles including crow’s feet, the frown lines between the eyebrows (the so called “11’s”), and on the forehead. Both Botox® and Dysport® are prescription medications that are injected by trained, healthcare professionals as a simple, nonsurgical treatment that provides noticeable results with no recovery time.
Fillers
The fillers we use at LaJolie are composed of hyaluronic acid, a sugar found naturally in our skin that holds water and helps keep it hydrated and plump. There are various fillers to choose from depending upon what areas require treatment. At LaJolie, we offer Restylane® and the Juvederm® line, including Voluma, Volbella, Ultra, and Ultra Plus, which are injected into the middle layer of skin to temporarily correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds and add volume to areas that have been depleted. Replacing the lost volume with hyaluronic acid fillers can help restore a more youthful appearance.
PDO Threads
PDO threads are an effective cosmetic technique that lift and tighten sagging skin tissues by inducing collagen production. Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are similar to sutures used during surgery and are implanted below the skin. This process results in the immediate tightening of the skin as well as eventually stimulating the production of collagen. Over the next 4-6 months, the threads are absorbed by the body but the increased collagen production maintains the effects of the threads for another 6-8 months. PDO threads also stimulate the production of elastin and hyaluronic acid, both of which are key to maintaining firm, youthful looking skin.
Kybella
Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is a manmade form of a substance made by the body that helps to absorb fats. When injected into the body, deoxycholic acid works locally by destroying fat cells under the skin. Kybella is used to decrease the amount of fat below the chin resulting in a more defined jaw line.
Latisse
Latisse (bimatoprost) is FDA-approved for application to the upper eyelid. When applied regularly, Latisse gradually encourages growth of longer, thicker and darker eyelashes. Latisse is not approved for use on the lower lids. For full results, the medication must be used daily for at least two months. The benefits last as long as you continue to use it. If you stop using it, your eyelashes will eventually return to their original appearance
IV Hydration
Intravenous (IV) hydration therapy is a method of getting essential fluids and nutrients into your body. While you can certainly drink a lot of water or consume sports drinks to rehydrate yourself, it can be difficult to drink enough and can often leave you feeling bloated. Also, it can take your digestive system hours to actually process and absorb the fluid it needs. Because IV hydration solutions bypass your digestive tract entirely and enter your bloodstream immediately, cells and tissues quickly get the fluids and nutrients they need to thrive. The entire process simply involves lying back and relaxing while the IV drip delivers the essential fluids.
