Complementary Procedures

Juvederm is a simple treatment that is easily and often combined with other procedures. One of the most popular anti-aging solutions Juvederm is combined with is Botox.

Botox is a revolutionary treatment to reduce and erase wrinkles.

Botox is often combined with Juvederm because it is also an injectable. Together, these treatments wouldn’t take more than an hour to administer. Botox does not require preparation or downtime and yields results within a week. As a neuromodulator, Botox works to pause muscle movement and relax moderate to severe wrinkles on the face. Botox will pause communication between the treated muscle and nerve.

The most common areas Botox is applied to are brow furrows, smile lines, and the lines that often develop between the eyebrows.

Many patients are interested in Botox because they are bothered by the constant lines and wrinkles on their face. Lines that make you appear constantly angry, tired or concerned detract from your natural attractiveness and can be easily erased with Botox. Botox results will last three to six months. A maintenance appointment is all you need to smooth out those lines again. Consider combining Juvederm and Botox to truly transform your appearance!

Another ideal treatment to combine with Juvederm or consider undergoing is Morpheus8. This skin tightening treatment combines RF energy and microneedling to transform the shape and texture of the skin.

Morpheus8 is able to rejuvenate all skin types and is commonly applied to the jowls and neck. These areas often develop irreversible wrinkles and droopy skin that cannot normally be treated with non-invasive techniques, creams, exercise or diet. Morpheus 8 is a minimally invasive technique that provides long-lasting results after one treatment! You may require more than one treatment to get your desired result. There are so many advantages regarding Morpheus8! The treatment will reduce wrinkles, tighten skin, shrink pores, does not require downtime and can even reduce scarring and stretch marks. Morpheus8 is an FDA-approved procedure that would be a great addition to Juvederm injections. Add volume to your face with Juvederm and reduce wrinkles and saggy skin with Morpheus8!

If you are interested in one of these treatments, mention Juvederm, Botox, or Morpheus8 when you schedule your consultation. Dr. Michaels will go over the treatments in more depth and whether they are a viable option for you and your facial goals!

Fillers in the cheek and mid-facial area tend to last longer then formula injected into the lips. This is largely due to the nature of these areas. Your lips are much more active than your cheeks.
