Most people work really hard to keep their skin soft and looking young. Moisturizers, sunscreens, and other skin products are common safeguards. We believe in and encourage skin care regimens, which focus on cleansing, hydrating, and exfoliating the face and neck.

Chemical peels have become an increasingly popular solution for patients hoping to reverse the aging process. If you're unhappy with the appearance of your skin, it doesn't have to be permanent.

Age and gravity are often unkind to the body. Areas that used to be firm and smooth become wrinkled and start to sag. More often than not, you probably feel much more youthful and energetic on the inside than your body may portray on the outside. As a result, your self-confidence and social life may take a hit.

Aging takes a toll on the body, often leading to a loss of skin elasticity, sagging, wrinkles, and other visible signs. Many women feel that as they age, their outward appearance doesn't appropriately reflect the youthfulness they feel inside. A facelift is a great way to address the signs of aging and restore a healthy, youthful appearance.

Just because a cosmetic procedure is nonsurgical doesn't mean it's risk free. While Botox and other injectables are typically lower risk than a facelift or a tummy tuck, going to the wrong Botox provider can result in months of dissatisfaction. Many patients believe that because day spas and other nonmedical offices offer Botox, it's as simple as getting a haircut. This certainly isn't true.

Dr. Larry Fan has performed hundreds of facelifts and patients are always concerned about what to expect in the days and weeks following a facelift. If you're like most people, you are concerned about how long the recovery process will take, what your body will experience after surgery, and when you'll be able to resume normal activities or hit the town looking and feeling great.

You may have seen advertisements for branded facelifts like the Lifestyle Lift. The Lifestyle Lift has been marketed heavily over the years with clever slogans and messages. The marketing messages can sound great, but if you're like most of our patients, you're smart enough not to believe everything you read online or see on an infomercial.

For patients considering injectable filler treatments, minimal recovery time can significantly add to the appeal. Dermal fillers such as Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm, and Radiesse are all effective, non-surgical ways of significantly reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Having a major surgery often produces trepidation in regards to the process and recovery. However, there is also some legitimate concern over anesthesia and being "put to sleep."

Injectable fillers are a popular way to restore lost volume to facial tissues. In many cases, Restylane, Juvederm, and other treatments lend a smoother and more youthful appearance to the face. Fillers are also popular for enhancing the shape and proportions of the face including the nose, chin, cheeks, and lips.
