In the past, the preferred option to reverse the signs of aging was a face-lift, which can add up to weeks and even months of recovery time. Fortunately, Dr. Rokhsar can provide his patients with non-surgical options to reach their desired results. This is a non-invasive option for patients who would like modest results with zero downtime and no scarring to worry about. The non-invasive route can improve those with facial aging can result in changes in the position of facial fate, increased wrinkles, sagging of excess skin and hollowness in cheeks and around the eyes.
Dr. Rokhsar provides several different techniques in order to achieve improvement in the face, making his clients look younger and healthier. Techniques such as botox, fillers, lasers, ultrasound energy, and thermal energy are used to smooth away wrinkles and ultimately decrease signs of aging. Dr. Cameron Rokhsar is among the finest surgeons for non-surgical facelift1 New York has to offer–and his results prove it!
Practicing New York City and Long Island Dermatologist, Dr. Rokhsar is the first doctor in the United States to use Fraxel lasers to treat wrinkles, acne and scarring. He has been a lead research and pioneer in the science of resurfacing with the Fraxel laser. Fraxel is the first brand to develop the concept of treating the skin in small microscopic areas at a time, allowing the skin to heal and create newer, healthier skin with minimal downtime. Resurfacing peels away the layers of damaged or wrinkled skin in small fragments and stimulates the under layers so the body can naturally replace the skin’s surface. This laser therapy achieves a patient’s desired results 15 to 30 percent each time.
Thermage is an exciting new non-surgical procedure that offers an innovative way to rejuvenate your face2 without surgery. It involves the application of radiofrequency energy to your face. This energy strategically heats collagen, which composes your skin. In response to heat, your loose, weakened, and disorganized collagen will strengthen, tighten, and become organized. This translates into tighter, younger-appearing skin, without surgery.
Dr. Rokhsar performs this procedure combining Radiesse injections into the cheeks as well.
The Benefits of Thermage
Unlike laser treatments, Thermage works just as well on people with darker skin types as those with light skin types.
For those that are opposed to surgery, there are still ways to achieve face tightening and augmentation without having to go under a knife. Non-invasive, out-patient procedures such as non-surgical nose jobs, non-surgical eye lifts, non-surgical chin augmentations, and even non-surgical facelifts3 in Manhattan can be achieved in several different ways depending on a patient’s cosmetic goals.
Virtually painless procedures include Botox injections, fillers, chemical peel, microdermabrasion, and the ones that can provide the more dramatic results are the laser resurfacing technologies, radiofrequency treatment, heat therapy, light therapy, and ultrasound therapy. Board-certified NYC dermatologic surgeon, Dr. Cameron Rokhsar has unrivaled experience using the Fraxel laser because of his involvement with its development. He has also taught more physicians on the use and science of the Fraxel technology than any other physician in the world. Non-surgical cosmetic procedures is his expertise and he provides many treatments options and plans for his patients including: Ultherapy, which uses ultrasound technology to affect skin cells deep within the layers in order to stimulate skin production as well as Thermage, which uses radiofrequency technology to work deep into the skin by heating the area and remodeling the collagen to tighten and taut the skin.
Using fillers and Botox injections to treat the face can be a very effective in-office treatment to tighten skin and smooth out wrinkles. Fillers are typically made out of hyaluronic acid, which is a substance already found in the human body as fluid in the joints and eyes. Because it is a naturally occurring substance, the chance of the body rejecting the filler is significantly reduced. It works by replenishing the fat loss in the face from aging, as well as smoothing out the wrinkles that line the face. Botox injections compliment filler injections because it lifts and tightens wrinkles and loose skin, while fillers plump and refresh the face. This is also known as a liquid facelift, which gives an overall natural result.
Thermage is a system that uses a similar treatment to that of laser skin tightening. However, this technique uses radiofrequency energy to heat and stimulate collagen. Collagen is responsible for the structure of the skin. Thermage administers treatment to the deeper layer of the skin without having to make an incision.
Traditional facelifts require cutting the skin just behind the hairline and re-attaching it further back than its original position in order to tighten and taut the facial skin. A non-surgical facelift can achieve facial rejuvenation and is usually less expensive than traditional surgical facelifts that require downtime and have certain associated risks, as do any surgeries. Botox and fillers may also be used in conjunction with Thermage and can be completed during a lunch break with no downtime at all.
