Getting cosmetic treatments is more common than ever, with a five percent increase in a variety of invasive and noninvasive procedures from 2022 (1,498,361) to 2023 (1,575,244). The need for millions of people to look their best has led to liposuction, breast augmentation, abdominoplasty (tummy tucks), mastopexy (breast lifts), and eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) becoming the most popular treatments just two years ago.
But if you’re looking to come into the holidays with a fresher look and don’t want to go under the knife to do it, we offer various nonsurgical options to help you look your best. Let’s find out more by examining the advantages of nonsurgical treatments and showing you what we have to offer.
Residents of the Arlington, Virginia, area who are looking for noninvasive procedures to improve their appearance can find help with Drs. Talal Munasifi and James Economides and their experienced medical staff at Advanced Plastic Surgery Center.
Looking better without surgery has a number of benefits:
While not the optimal choice for severe problems, and follow-up treatments are likely, these are highly advantageous for people who want results without the hassle of a surgical recovery timeframe. They can help reduce wrinkles, improve skin, and add volume and firmness where necessary.
Here are some of the treatment options we have with no surgery:
If you’re well on your way to getting the body you want but can’t shed the remaining stubborn pounds, then Coolsculpting is a choice to consider. Also known as cryolipolysis, this treatment uses controlled doses of cold temperatures to kill off fat cells in areas where they refuse to go away.
An injection of a purified neurotoxin is ideal for relaxing muscles that cause wrinkles to form, making the skin appear smoother. It is a common solution for various facial wrinkles, and results can be seen in only a few days.
These are injections of compounds designed to add volume to areas with sagging skin, deep wrinkles, or plump-up lips to make them look fuller. We have a variety of Juvederm® and Radiesse® fillers to manage specific skin needs.
We have fractional lasers like Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, and Laser Genesis, which operate on multiple wavelengths of light to penetrate lower layers of skin and help reduce the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, skin discoloration, age spots, and uneven texture.
This treatment employs another form of laser treatment, radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis, or RFAL for short. It helps shape and tighten facial skin and reduce fat by using heat energy to destroy fat cells precisely.
This is another RFAL treatment, but used to target more of the body which can also be removed using a small cannula (a thin, flexible tube). It can help improve the appearance of your back, neck, abdomen, thighs, arms, and knees.
So, if you want to change your look before the holidays kick in without a longer recovery time, make an appointment with Drs. Munasifi, Economides, and the team at Advanced Plastic Surgery Center today.
