Treat Folds & Lines while Building Collagen with Silhouette InstaLift
InstaLift is a minimally-invasive alternative to a traditional surgical facelift. It helps to address volume loss as well as skin laxity through an instant lift of the skin and long-term collagen production. Specially-formulated dissolvable sutures with bidirectional cones are used to mechanically lift deep tissue while the cons dissolve to create collagen production.
InstaLift treats folds and lines; helps to smooth the skin; and contours and lifts the face. Benefits include collagen production, allowing for a regenerative effect that means the skin will continue to look better, firmer, plumper and more youthful over the next six months. Results last approximately two years.

More Hair, No Plugs Necessary
If you've been struggling with hair loss or a receding hairline, you know that most products that claim to restore your hair... don't. And while there are some pharmaceuticals that do bring back some hair in some people, the side effects are often too difficult to manage long term - and once you stop using the product, hair can stop growing. These frustrations often drive hair-loss sufferers towards hair plugs - but the surgical process is frequently painful and the results can look anything but natural. Today, an innovative treatment can help patients suffering with hair loss grow more hair, faster. This procedure is done with precision placement and without an incision by grafting thousands of individual hairs per session. This technique yields natural-looking results and the opportunity to grow your own real hair. Dr. Justin Heller of Heller Plastic Surgery offers this procedure by providing patients with a comfortable experience and a dramatic transformation. Individual hairs are implanted, one by one, with a graft vacuum system that removes, then deposits and places the follicles beautifully.
"People who've suffered from embarrassment or frustration because of hair loss can now implant real hair-bearing tissue into eyebrows, scalp and other desired areas. Male-pattern baldness issues can be alleviated without the harsh look of hair plugs. Hair lines can now look lush and natural," says Dr. Heller.

Don't Compound Missing Teeth with Lost Self Esteem, Too
The loss of a tooth can be more than painful and inconvenient - it can also be a big hit to your confidence. Today's technological advances allow for artificial teeth - also known as dentures - to look, function and feel just like the real thing. Today's best denture providers make their patients' dentures in house; custom shape and fit them for ultimate comfort; and are perfectly matched for a clean, aesthetically-pleasing result.
