Good news! Thanks to Thermage, you may not have to go under the knife to achieve younger, tighter skin. Thermage is the only non-surgical option that lifts, tightens, and contours skin, pretty much anywhere on your body, in a single treatment! The procedure requires no injections and better yet little to no downtime.

Thermage creates a smoother rejuvenated look by heating the skin all the way down to the subcutaneous fat layer, causing collagen fibers to contract which stimulates collagen regeneration. The procedure for some can be very uncomfortable. At Verve Medical Cosmetics we will discuss possible options to reduce the discomfort prior to the procedure. Patients can expect to see an improvement in 2-6 months. Results will vary depending on your skin’s condition. To find out if you are a good candidate for Thermage schedule a free consultation so we can review the best options to achieve a fresher you. Just call: 212-888-3003.

Unlike Juvederm or RADIESSE, two very popular skin plumping options that provide immediate results, Sculptra®Aesthetic works slowly to gradually replace the collagen that time has taken away while reinforcing your skin’s structure. Many of our patients appreciate how this injectable cosmetic gradually and subtly corrects wrinkles while producing a refined and more youthful appearance that can last for up to two years. Sculptra®Aesthetic is perfect for correcting shallow to deep smile lines; marionette lines, and those dreaded chin wrinkles.  On average three injection sessions are needed over a three month period but sometimes one or two injections does the trick. It all depends on the current condition of your skin.  To learn more about this volumizing option, schedule a
free consultation so we discuss the best treatment for you.  Call: 212-888-3003.

In the meantime, watch this Sculptra®Aesthetic testimonial to learn more about what to expect from this medical cosmetic treatment.

The final result will be a fresher you, who will look great never fake. Let us figure out the best treatment for you.  Schedule your free consultation today! Call: 212-888-3003

Let me brag for a moment. I am vegetarian and amateur athlete. I don’t smoke, I drink in moderation, and yes I make sure I have plenty of water each day. Nevertheless, it took time to establish healthy habits and make it a part of my everyday life, and I did it in baby steps and so can you. Vow to walk at least once per week and build from there.  Take measures to cut processed foods one meal at a time. Keep a journal to help you keep track and pinpoint what needs to be worked on,  and don’t  forget to reward yourself for making progress, like buying those jeans you thought you could never wear or sneaking in a cat nap on a Sunday afternoon.  You owe it to yourself to feel great and most importantly if you get started today; you will age youthfully. Now isn’t that an incentive to get started?
