A Faster Fix for...Frown Lines
Meet the Newest Injectable: Jeuveau
DermaCure of Valencia just announced the addition of the latest neuromodulation product to their current fantastic lineup: Jeuveau (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs), an injectable cosmetic.

Jeuveau is an FDA-approved treatment used to reduce the look of frown lines by reducing motion created that causes lines to become "static" over time. Treatments are quick and painless and patients typically see results anywhere from two to 10 days after treatment. Results can last up to three months. Many patients have reported a faster onset, compared to other neuromodulators. Many have also reported that their result feels "softer" as well. A free consultation is available.

Feeling eyebrow envy? You'll be the one inspiring visits from the Green Eyed Monster when you have your brows professionally waxed and shaped.

Ask the Doctor
The Prominent Veins in my Hands make me Look Older. What are the Causes?Answered by Dr. Larisse Lee of LA Vein Center
Venous conditions can happen anywhere on our bodies, although some areas are more prone than others, including the legs and the hands. There are several reasons that make our hands particularly vulnerable to venous conditions. First, because they are an extremity and we use our hands for everything. Secondly, the more elastic your skin, the more youthful looking they are. As we age, our hands lose a protein called elastin and lose some firmness and tightness. The third reason that makes our hands vulnerable to developing conditions with veins is that they are consistently pumping blood upward, straining them over time. In a nutshell, the main cause of visible hand veins is simply aging and thinning skin.
Harvard and Stanford trained double-board-certified surgeon Dr. Larisse Lee focuses on the most up-to-date techniques to get the results you want. Be it hand and leg vein treatment, laser liposuction or other concerns, Dr. Lee can tailor a plan for you. Her state-of-the-art facility, LA Vein Center in Sherman Oaks, offers minimally-invasive procedures with exceptional results. 818-325-0400
