The body’s natural aging process causes the skin to become thinner and less elastic. This goes not only for the skin on the face but also for the skin on the neck. So, if you’re noticing lines and wrinkles appearing on your neck, you’re not alone. But, with the help of the longstanding injectable Radiesse, it’s possible to safely and effectively eliminate neck lines. 

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is an injectable treatment that’s been FDA-approved since 2007. Its main ingredient is calcium hydroxylapatite or CaHA. CaHA provides immediate contouring after the treatment and lasting collagen and elastin production. Since the Radiesse formula stimulates the production of these essential proteins, it leads to tighter, stronger, and more elastic skin long after the initial injection.   Continue reading “Improve Your Neck Lines with Radiesse” →

Do you wish that you could say goodbye to cellulite once and for all? If so, we have the perfect treatment for you. QWO is an injectable treatment for cellulite reduction, and it’s used to reduce the appearance of cellulite in the buttocks and thighs. Safe, non-surgical, and effective, QWO is gaining popularity among women as a quick cellulite solution. 

What is QWO?

Cellulite is often thought of simply as fat. But, that isn’t the case! Cellulite is linked to shifts in the thickness of the skin, as well as the connective tissue and fat cells under the skin. A key trigger of cellulite is the collagen bands that connect the skin to muscle in between pockets of fat. The collagen bands drag the skin downward, causing the fat pockets to appear on the skin as dimples. Continue reading “Benefits of QWO Treatment” →

Signs of skin aging, including fine lines, discoloration, and scarring, can benefit from chemical peels. Recommended by Dr. Anne Hermann, MD, to boost the results of anti-aging treatments, chemical peels can refresh your complexion to give you a youthful glow. 

How Chemical Peels Work For Facial Aging

While various chemical peels are available to rejuvenate the skin, most of them work in the same way. Peels prompt your body to shed the outermost layer of skin. This stimulates the development of new skin to take its place. As the old skin cells are replaced with healthy skin cells, signs of aging are diminished, giving the skin a brighter, clearer, and smoother appearance.

During the aging process, many people experience skin laxity, with which the skin loosens and sags. Sagging skin on the jaw, in particular, is a common complaint. When the skin around the jaw sags, it diminishes the definition of the jawline and gives the face an older, more tired appearance.

PDO jaw contouring is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that can rejuvenate the appearance of the jaw. Using PDO threads, we’re able to tighten and define the skin around the jaw in patients at Hermann Aesthetics & Wellness.

Belotero is a dermal filler that stands apart from other filler options for its thin, pre-hydrated formula, but how long will it take to settle? Let’s find out.
