Nobody Wants a Turkey-gobbler Neck this Thanksgiving

Noninvasive lunchtime procedures can have you glowing and more youthful, just in time for Thanksgiving dinner!

My top four picks for this year’s Thanksgiving rejuvenation menu to fill, smooth and tighten the face.

#1: Fillers

Today’s assortment of cosmetic dermal fillers opens a world of options in facial rejuvenation, from smoothing unwanted lines and wrinkles to restoring a more youthful facial shape. Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Restylane, Perlane, Juvéderm, Prevelle Silk and Belotero Balance, replace lost volume and restore youthful facial contour, by softening wrinkles and folds. Radiesse is an injectable implant, which has proven to be versatile for augmenting such areas as the chin and cheeks. And Sculptra, a long-lasting filler option, helps to replace lost collagen.

#2: Neurotoxins Botox or Dysport

We wear our emotions on our faces. After decades of frowning, stressing, getting mad and making other faces, we develop more permanent versions of those looks. Neuromodulators help to relax the muscles that make those lines. The result? A smoother, more youthful and relaxed look.

#3 Skin tightening with the Venus Freeze

The Venus Freeze is all the rage. Why? The technology combines radio frequency and magnetic pulses to tighten facial, neck and body areas. Right in line with the Thanksgiving theme, women who don’t like the turkey gobbler look of their jowls and neck can benefit from treatments with Venus Freeze to tighten the area and make it more youthful. The technology also has been shown to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

#4 Polish skin with the Parisian Peel medical microdermabrasion

Using this medical microdermabrasion system, we deliver microcrystals to exfoliate the skin; then, vacuum the skin’s surface to remove dead cells. Patients emerge with glowing skin—perfect for the holiday season.
