Does the face you see in the mirror reflect how you feel inside? The aging process breaks down connective fibers like collagen and elastin, along with a loss of fat that can result in sagging, loose skin that wrinkles easily. If you yearn for the smooth, plump, taut face of your youth, you may be excited to know the LUX Med Spa offers non-surgical facelift and necklift procedures. 

By using the perfect combination of injectables, you can refresh, restore and add beauty to your face with what we refer to as a “liquid facelift.” The result is reduced wrinkles, increased facial volume, and removal of under-the-chin fat.

What is a Liquid Facelift?

Our master injectors perform a “liquid facelift” at LUX Med Spa and will tailor a treatment to match your specific aesthetic goals. We use fillers, Botox, and Kybella to achieve fantastic results. Most fillers last 6-18 months depending on the filler, and Botox only needs to be touched up every 3-4 months. Kybella, the injectable used to remove under-the-chin fat, is permanent as long as your weight stays the same.

The results of our liquid facelift aren’t quite as dramatic and long-lasting as a surgical facelift and neck lift. However, the immediate results provide a refreshed and youthful look with little to no downtime, which our busy patients appreciate.

Hyaluronic Acid Fillers for a Liquid Facelift

Facial rejuvenation in the form of a liquid facelift can safely and easily be achieved with dermal fillers. Various fillers are popular for different reasons, and LUX Med Spa will choose the perfect one for you to get your desired facelift results.

Injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) is a popular temporary dermal filler that adds volume to specific areas of your face. The almost immediate results give you a more youthful appearance, the hallmark of the non-invasive facelift.

Types of HA Fillers

Hyaluronic acid is found naturally throughout the body. When used as a filler, hyaluronic acid attracts water, which allows the skin to become more hydrated with a more plump appearance. This filler is ideal for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and facial folds. Plus, it can be used to create structure, framework, and volume to the face and lips, which is why it’s ideal for stunning liquid facelift results.

At Lux Med Spa, we have achieved Diamond status from Allergan, the maker of JUVÉDERM products with HA fillers including: JUVÉDERM®, JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC, JUVÉDERM®, VOLUMA® XC, JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC and JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE™ XC. Only about 3% of providers in the U.S. achieve this status based on the volume of Allergan products used. This means our injectors have an extremely high level of experience using these products and that we have earned a reputation as a trusted provider.

We are also proud to offer our patients the Restylane® family of products. Restylane products can also be ideal for a liquid facelift with HA fillers like RESTYLANE® Lyft, Defyne, Refyne, and Restylane® Kysse). With over 40 million treatments worldwide, the Restylane hyaluronic acid fillers line provides natural-looking results.

At LUX Med Spa, we will choose the fillers best suited for you to achieve the non-surgical facelift and necklift of your dreams. 

How Botox Can Give You Facelift Results

A little bit of BOTOX can go a long way towards improving fine lines and wrinkles, which is why it’s the perfect addition to your liquid facelift treatment. Our LUX staff knows precisely where and how much BOTOX should be injected to provide each patient with the desired outcome without a frozen or unnatural appearance.

BOTOX will gently relax the underlying facial muscles that contract as you change expressions to enhance your non-surgical facelift results further. BOTOX can be used on the forehead, on crow’s feet, on the chin area, between the eyebrows, and even around the lips. Depending on how quickly your body metabolizes it, BOTOX injections must be done every 3-4 months.

Non-Invasive Necklift with KYBELLA

In addition to fillers and BOTOX, your liquid facelift will include the injectable KYBELLA to slim and sculpt your jawline, giving you the benefits of a non-invasive neck lift. 

Stubborn fat below the chin is a common problem for many men and women. It can be related to aging, genetics, or weight gain. Even at a healthy weight, men and women often struggle with the appearance of a double chin. Adding KYBELLA to your liquid facelift can enhance your youthful appearance by dissolving the excess submental (below the chin) fat. KYBELLA uses a naturally occurring chemical (deoxycholic acid) to destroy problem fat cells beneath the chin. When injected, your body begins naturally eliminating this excess fat, gradually leaving behind a slim and well-sculpted chin and jawline.

Have you been considering a facelift? A facelift is a great way to turn back the clock and rejuvenate your look by reducing sagging skin and eliminating wrinkles. There is a lot to think about when considering cosmetic surgery, from final results, to recovery time. Many people wonder when is the perfect time to get a facelift. Still, other patients worry or think it’s too early or too late to get a facelift. Don’t worry; we’re here to answer all your questions!

The Best Age For A Facelift

If you’re wondering what the perfect age for a facelift is, the bottom line is there is no ideal age. Only you can determine if plastic surgery is suitable for your body. As for the perfect time to schedule your procedure, it all depends on what signs of aging you’re experiencing and your long-term goals, genetics, and desire to have cosmetic surgery. 

Some patients find it surprising that many people choose to get a facelift in their 40s. Although historically, more patients waited until later in life to schedule this procedure. Meaning in the past, people tended to wait until their 50s or even their 60s before they thought about a facelift procedure; patients today are more proactive about the aging process. You might be surprised to hear there are many benefits to getting a facelift earlier. 

What Are The Benefits Of Getting A Facelift Earlier?

Patients who choose to get a facelift earlier in life benefit from a less dramatic change in their appearance. Facelifts can provide a significant shift; getting this procedure before your face has aged drastically can result in a more natural-looking result. The results are more subtle, and you will age more gracefully. 

 Getting a facelift earlier in life means your healing process is easier and faster. Your body produces more collagen and elastin in your 40s than in your 50s and 60s, resulting in better-concealed scars. Your results may last longer, and the procedure can often be less expensive than continuing yearly filler maintenance throughout the decades.

Types Of Facelifts

Once you’ve decided to get a facelift, the next decision will be what TYPE of facelift. There are a few popular options; if you aren’t sure which one is right for you, give us a call, and we can schedule a consultation to discuss the possibilities. Popular choices include:

 Mini Facelift

This option is probably the most popular with patients in their 40s. It’s best for those patients who need minimal improvement as it only addresses issues in the lower half of the face around  and is an excellent option if you only have minimal signs of aging. 

 Full Facelift

Also known as a traditional facelift is what most people think of when they think of a facelift procedure. It’s ideal for people with moderate to severe signs of aging, this procedure addresses the lower face and neck, as well as a browlift to address the upper half of the face. This surgery removes excess facial fat and skin and reshapes it to a more flattering youthful contour. It can produce drastic results, and most patients are pleased with their new look. 

 Necklift

This surgery can remove excess fat and tissue from the neck. In addition, this surgery can provide a more youthful and defined look; many prefer to pair a neck lift with their facelift surgery for optimal results and a cohesive look.

Which One Is Right For Me?

Only you can determine if a cosmetic procedure is correct for you. However, we want you to feel your best at every age at Buckhead Plastic Surgery. Dr. Larsen is a double-board-certified plastic surgeon who works with patients of all ages. We provide facelifts for patients as early as their 30s and as late as their 60s. It’s never too late to improve your look! Contact us today to book your consultation if you’ve been considering a facelift.

The Lux Med Spa Non-Invasive Mommy Make-Over https://buckheadplasticsurgery.com/the-lux-med-spa-non-invasive-mommy-make-over/ https://buckheadplasticsurgery.com/the-lux-med-spa-non-invasive-mommy-make-over/#respond Tue, 23 Aug 2022 19:52:08 +0000 https://buckheadplasticsurgery.com/?p=20276 Bringing a child into the world is one of the most miraculous things in the human experience.

Bringing a child into the world is one of the most miraculous things in the human experience. However, many moms find that after giving birth, they feel disconnected from their bodies after effects pregnancy and childbirth. If you feel that disconnect, there are many options, both surgical and non-invasive available. 

The surgical option commonly known as the Mommy Makeover is a combination surgery that focuses on the areas most affected by pregnancy and childbirth. Typically it involves a tummy tuck with optional liposuction and breast augmentation or lift. Some patients choose to include labiaplasty as well. This surgery is best for those who want a one-and-done procedure. Although it requires lengthy recovery and significant time commitment and investment, the results can be dramatic. 

However, many moms are ready to improve their look after kids but don’t want to undergo a significant surgery and choose a non-invasive option. These results provide a more natural look that improves gradually over time. They also require little to no downtime and can be scheduled over a period of time, giving you flexibility in your schedule, which moms can appreciate! Here are some of our most popular non-surgical options:

Remodel Your Face & Body With Morpheus8 at LUX Med Spa

Morpheus8

One of the areas most affected by pregnancy is the abdominal area. Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive radiofrequency technology used on the face or body. This treatment gained popularity when Kim K revealed her success with it after childbirth. It’s an awe-inspiring technology that can effectively tighten the skin commonly stretched in the tummy area during pregnancy. As a bonus, it’s able to reduce the appearance of cellulite. It provides incredible results and is the most profound and most effective radiofrequency microneedling device on the market. 

However, if your abdominal area has significant amounts of loose skin, a tummy tuck is still the best solution. If you’re curious about which procedure is best for you, call us today at 404.367.9005 to get more information. We’d love to schedule a consultation and answer any questions you have.

ThermiVa

ThermiVa is gaining popularity because it’s a painless and non-surgical alternative to more invasive procedures. In addition, it’s the only treatment that uses temperature-controlled radiofrequency to tighten internal and external vaginal tissue and is an excellent surgical alternative.

Patients love ThermiVa because it’s FDA-approved, non-invasive, non-hormonal, and non-surgical. This procedure is ideal for women who want to treat vaginal laxity, vaginal vulvar dryness, experience mild to moderate stress incontinence, or experience sexual or orgasmic dysfunction. Typically patients see results after just three sessions with results lasting up to 2 years. 

Many moms suffer from excessive vaginal relaxation after vaginal birth, which affects satisfaction during intercourse. If you are experiencing any of these issues, ThermiVa might be an excellent solution for you. 

ThermiVa is a fantastic treatment, but it only focuses on tightening the vaginal tissue. Many women who have delivered their children vaginally deal with distortions of the labia after birth; if you suffer from these distortions, a labiaplasty might be a better solution.

Facial Treatments

Many women find that facial treatments are one of the most impactful areas to treat when they want to freshen up their look. In addition, because they are minimally invasive, many women combine facial treatments with body treatments. The most common treatments we provide are the Liquid Lift, Opus Plasma, and Morpheus8

A liquid lift is a non-surgical alternative to a facelift. It combines Botox or Dysport and fillers like Juvederm or Restylane. Opus Plasma is a resurfacing treatment that can tighten skin and stimulate collagen production. Finally, Morpheus8 is a micro-needling skin remodeling treatment that stimulates collagen production to reduce fine lines and wrinkles that are just as effective on the face as on the body.

Am I a Good Candidate For A Non-Invasive Mommy Makeover?

There are so many options for non-surgical mommy makeovers. Ideal candidates are in good health and have experienced changes in their bodies due to pregnancy or childbirth that they would like to change. Ideal candidates for a non-invasive mommy makeover would like to see moderate changes in their bodies without the long recovery time of surgery. Yet, they can still commit to a period of several visits to complete a treatment plan. 

Should I Consider Surgery?

After childbirth, many women desire to make subtle changes to reclaim their bodies and improve their appearance. However, for those who want dramatic results, surgery may be the best option. A typical Mommy-Makeover surgery consists of vaginal reconstruction, a tummy tuck, and a breast lift. This reconstructive surgery dramatically improves your body’s contours but also requires significant surgery and a lengthy recovery. 

You’re the only one who can determine which path is right for your body. A mommy makeover might be an excellent option if you’d prefer to schedule one surgery and restore your body to its pre-pregnancy look. However, if you prefer to take a slower approach and make more minor changes over time, non-surgical options provide a great alternative.

We all want to start the year looking and feeling our best. It’s so common for New Year’s resolutions to involve body transformations, whether you want to get in better shape or turn back the clock Buckhead Plastic Surgery and LUX Med Spa are ready to partner with you to help you feel like the most confident version of yourself!

In this post, we’re going to find out more about our most commonly requested services for the best surgical and non-surgical procedures to boost your confidence as you evaluate your cosmetic goals this year.  

Liposuction

Liposuction is one of the oldest and most common cosmetic surgeries preformed. Contrary to popular belief this body contouring surgery is not a weight loss treatment or a “quick fix” but it will highlight the hard work you’ve been putting in at the gym. Liposuction is most effective on stubborn pockets of fat that remain even when you’re eating a healthy diet and living a healthy lifestyle.

Alan N Larsen, MD Chastain Family of Brands and Medical Director at LUX Med Spa

Liposuction can be a great way to slim down those problem areas so you can enjoy the figure you’ve been working toward. This is one of the most confidence boosting procedures because many people find that a little extra help on contouring those problem areas gives them even greater motivation to stick to their fitness resolutions long term.

BeautifFill Fat Transfer

If you are interested in minor liposuction but also have areas of your body you’d like to enhance, BeautiFill might be for you. This procedure still involves liposuction but in a way that is minimally invasive and offers a quicker recovery time than traditional lipo. BeautiFill also allows your surgeon to redeposit fat from a donor area of your body to another area you’d like to enhance, many patients opt for this procedure over a Brazilian Butt Lift or Breast Augmentation. Because of the high survival rate of the fat tissue that is removed, your surgeon can very accurately predict the final results. The results from this procedure aren’t going to be as drastic as a Brazilian Butt Lift or a full Breast Augmentation, but it’s an excellent and minimally invasive surgery that can enhance many areas of the body in one procedure. 

Non-Surgical Body Contouring

Many people would like to see slight changes in the contours of their body but aren’t quite ready to opt for surgery. Acent Prime is a great non-surgical option for those wanting to shed a few pounds and see lax skin tightened.

Accent Prime™ skin tightening, body contouring fast painless easy at Buckhead Plastic Surgery Atlanta GA

Accent Prime is a total body contouring skin renewal system. Not only can it eliminate pockets of stubborn fat, it can also tighten lax skin. Accent Prime is completely non-invasive and requires no downtime. If you’ve been wanting to speed up your results from the gym, and have a BMI under 30 Accent Prime is an excellent option to consider!

Liquid Lift

Many patients are interested in the effects of a facelift but aren’t interested in the invasive surgery or the lengthy recovery time, if that sounds like you this might be the year for you to try the liquid lift! We can use safe and effective injectables like Botox and Dysport to smooth away lines and wrinkles with very natural looking results.

Liquid Lift | Buckhead Plastic Surgery - Northeast Atlanta

By preventing certain muscles from contracting, these injections can actually prevent new wrinkles from forming. In addition to this injectable fillers such as Juvaderm and Restylane you can restore volume to areas of your face that have thinned over the years such as the lips and the delicate skin around the eyes. 

Eyelid Surgery

Believe it or not eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty is fantastic for turning back the clock when it comes to your appearance. This surgery can make you look more awake and aware. As we age it’s so common for eyelids to droop or accumulate puffy looking bags below our eyes. Because the skin around the eyes is so delicate it’s hard to address these issues with cosmetic products. Surgery can remove the excess skin and reverse the signs of aging in the eyes and create a more open and bright expression. 

At Buckhead Plastic Surgery we want 2022 to be the year of YOU! We are certain this year is going to be your best year yet, and we want to partner with you to help you achieve all your aesthetic goals. If you’re ready to give your confidence a boost, or to turn back the hands of time, give us a call today. When you set up your free consultation we will answer any questions you have, present you with all the possible options, and design a custom treatment plan just for you. You’re going to love your results, call us today at 404.367.9005 and see what a difference Buckhead Plastic Surgery can make in your life.
