Sun exposure and smoking are two primary causes of aging the skin. Diet and heredity also play key roles. Many patients do not want to use sunscreen or stop smoking. Some patients don't like using chemical blocks and the physical blocks are sometimes difficult to apply. We often prescribe a new product made by Skin Medica (total defense and repair), which is actually clinically proven to help the skin with the inclusion of antioxidants. Fortunately, we now have many procedures to correct sun damage and other forms of aging when it occurs. I hope this helps.

I had a Thread Lift 3 days ago and Restylane injected into my upper cheeks 2 days ago. Now, there are huge swollen lumps under my eyes and I look super horrid. My eyes appear even smaller. Is this due to the Thread Lift, filler, or both? Should I have the filler dissolved and will that help? What advice can you give me regarding this?

I tan easily in the summer time. I'm Hispanic so I'm not sure if it has anything to do with either. I don't wax and I rarely wear makeup.

I am considering injectables/fillers for my face (e.g., under the eyes, nasolabial folds, and forehead). Which give a more natural appearance? I don't want to look fake or like I've had work done. What I really want to achieve is a more youthful appearance. I want to look like me, but my younger self.

I had a child a little over a year ago. While I've lost all but 8 lbs of the weight, my tummy area is still flabby. The muscles and the skin were stretched so much that they have not gone back to their pre-pregnancy state. I want a flatter tummy but don't want anything as invasive as a tummy tuck. What's a non-invasive alternative?

I have a small mole on the inside of my cheek. I just noticed it, so I'm not sure if it has grown in size or changed shape. How can I tell if it's benign or not?
