Doctors now understand how the face ages. The new thinking concentrates on filling and contouring to restore youthful volume, versus pulling skin that can result in an unnatural look. Full facial rejuvenation can be addressed with the latest laser technology and medical-grade products. Although character lines can be appreciated, wrinkles are not typically synonymous with sexy. They are the classic sign of facial aging and most people would like to do something about them. Thanks to Artemis, you can.

WRINKLES

All wrinkles are not created equal
There are two types of wrinkles: static and dynamic. Static wrinkles are there even when the face is at complete rest. These wrinkles are caused by loss of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin. The best way to address static wrinkles is by restoring volume into the area by injecting a medical-grade filler or using your own fat.

Dynamic wrinkles are those you see when the face is moving. They are often referred to as laugh lines, frown lines and the infamous crow's feet. Over time, dynamic wrinkles can transform into static wrinkles if there is no intervention. Botox and Dysport are excellent options to treat dynamic wrinkles because they literally stop the line.

What type of wrinkle do you have?

Whether you have static wrinkles, dynamic wrinkles or both; Artemis can help.
Artemis doctors are highly skilled at assessing the face and administering fillers. This treatment is more art than science. Anyone can inject a filler, but it takes true skill to understand the amount, placement and disbursement of the injectable. In the hands of an Artemis doctor, you can expect a natural looking result that lasts for months.

We're proud to use the world's most successful brands and techniques to increase facial volume and address static wrinkles.

Acne and Skin Conditions
Laser Therapy to Improve Skin

What if you could erase 10 years of sun damage, sagging, scaring and blemishes? When wrinkles and skin conditions are stubborn, it's time to consider lasers. The transformations are truly amazing.

Fractional CO2 Laser

This effective laser is designed for men and women who want to correct wrinkles, stretch marks, freckles, or scarring. This procedure also stimulates new collagen growth so the skin looks younger and smoother. Many doctors consider it to be the anti-aging breakthrough of the decade. Combining the effectiveness of traditional carbon dioxide lasers-long thought to be the gold standard in wrinkle removal-with a new application technique, it delivers powerful results without the traditionally harsh side effects.

Laser Genesis

The Laser Genesis procedure safely, discretely and effectively treats acne or injury scars, uneven textures, fine line wrinkles and large pores. The result is skin with smoother texture and a healthier appearance. Laser Genesis Skin Therapy uses advanced science to achieve vibrant, even skin tone and smooth texture in both men and women. Light penetrates deeply into the skin where collagen is manufactured, stimulating an increase of new collagen production. Unlike harsher methods, this is done without destroying the upper layers of skin (non-ablative). The skin is gently warmed during this procedure, and daily activities may be resumed right away. This is truly a rejuvenating experience with no downtime. Click here to learn more.

IPL Technology

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology uses high-energy pulses of light to provide long-lasting results. For the face, IPL skin resurfaces the skin and stimulates collagen. It evens skin pigmentation and creates a smooth youthful look. It's painless and effective. Skin appearance should improve soon after treatment.

The versatile IPL can also be used in vein therapy; improving skin texture and appearance; and removing hair from any area of the body without damaging nearby tissue. Hair, veins or pigmented regions on the skin surface selectively absorb the pulses of light, shrinking or fading after treatment. Patients can return to work and all regular activities immediately after the procedure. Hair loss is immediate and long-lasting. Several treatments may be desired for optimal results.

ADVANCED CHEMICAL PEELS

Transform the health of your skin with chemical peels that literally speed the dead cell turnover rate to reveal fresh new cells. You'll experience firmer, clearer, smoother, healthier and more youthful looking skin. Chemical peels use a variety of chemical solutions to improve and smooth the texture of the skin by removing its damaged outer layers. A peel treats facial blemishes, large pores, wrinkles, scarring, and uneven skin pigmentation. We have the technology and training to perform these procedures on all facial skin types; as well as the neck, décolleté, hands, and arms. The precise formula used is customized to achieve your desired results.

Ask one of our aestheticians and we'll help you determine which one is right for you.

"Look Younger overnight!"

If only it were true! Perhaps you've tried a few of the miracle creams from the drugstore aisles. If so, you know that they do help, but only a little. The problem is simple: by the time a product is diluted down far enough that it can be approved for sale over-the-counter, it's lost most of its rejuvenating effect. Only a doctor, like the professionals at Artemis, can prescribe the full-strength solutions that make a real difference. More than that, most wrinkles require more than a topical cream.

ArteFill® is a permanent wrinkle filler. It is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment of its kind. Artefill uses a unique dual-acting formula made of a combination of 80% ArteFill® Precision-Filtered Microspheres® and ArteFill® Purified Bovine Collagen®. Your body begins to build your own collagen around the microspheres volumizing even the deepest wrinkles. This procedure is painless due to a local anesthetic within the filler. The result is the immediate visible correction of facial wrinkles and folds in as few as one or two treatment sessions with no downtime.

Juvéderm® is an injectable gel that gently reverses many signs of aging in the face, including fine lines and wrinkles, crow's feet, thinning lips and loosening skin. It can also "plump up" the lips, sculpt the cheeks, and restore a youthful oval shape to the face. It is made with hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in the body that works with collagen and elastin to give volume and support to the skin. Because it is non-animal-based and highly biocompatible, no pre-treatment testing is needed. Juvéderm® comes in two formulas optimized for the depth of the area being treated. Juvéderm has FDA data to support results lasting a full year.

RADIESSE

Radiesse® is a synthetic injectable filler that reduces wrinkles, creases and scars by augmenting the body's natural collagen supply. Composed of microspheres in a biocompatible gel, Radiesse is made from the same minerals found in our bones, so it carries little risk of allergic reaction. Radiesse can be used on many areas of the body, including nasolabial folds, peri-oral lines, depressed scars and oral commissures.

Treatments typically take 15 minutes and a local anesthetic is provided with each injection. Results are visible immediately after the injection and can last up to a year or longer, although the procedure can be repeated as often as you wish.

Fat Transfer

The beauty of fat transfer is the final result; a natural look without the telltale sign that you've had a procedure. Because it uses your own body fat, there is no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. The procedure is simple; fat is harvested from one part of the body and injected into an area that is lacking volume. As a filler, fat smoothes wrinkles and folds to create an overall youthful appearance. Unlike manmade fillers that last from six months to two years, your own fat grows as a long-term filler that lasts for many years and is therefore considered a permanent solution.

The most common facial fat injection sites are:

• into nasolabial folds that run from the nose to the mouth
• into cheeks to restore youthful volume
• under the eyes to fill in hollows
• into deep scars left by acne or injury

Fat can also be transferred to the breasts or any other area that would benefit from a plumping effect. The procedure requires local anesthesia at both the donor site and the receiving site. Artemis doctors are highly skilled in performing fat transfer, an important consideration since the results are permanent.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is commonly used to reduce or eliminate the appearance of facial wrinkles. It is injected under the skin into areas surrounding the eyes, forehead and mouth to smooth crow's feet, frown and worry lines, and lines on the neck. Made from a purified protein, BOTOX® relaxes wrinkles and gives the face a rejuvenated look. BOTOX® may also be useful for migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and eye or neck muscle spasms.

Facials

Think of medical-grade facials as a supercharged facial; they employ the basics of a traditional facial with the added benefit of prescription-strength products. A medical facial versus a spa-administered facial is usually a matter of strength, aggressiveness, and knowledge. We can offer some quick fixes when time is of the essence. But long term, we're improving not only the look of the skin, but its health. Most medical facials are coupled with a peel to speed up the skins natural turnover. You should have a medical facial a couple times a year. If you have problematic skin, facials spaced two to three weeks apart can quickly eradicate the problem.

Medical facials reduce the signs of aging and can also improve skin conditions such as acne, dry or oily skin, and uneven texture or pigmentation. Medical facials are tailored to each patient for optimal results.
