Daxxify

Finally, for the first time, we have a neuromodulator that lasts an average of 6 months, and up to 9 months for some people. Preventing or reversing frown and forehead lines and crow’s feet has never been lower maintenance. As an expert injector, Dr. Tina West is one of 450 providers in the world to offer early access to DAXXIFY!.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Daxxify, a new injected medicine for smoothing facial wrinkles in adults, which dermatologists see as the first major competitor to Botox to emerge in decades.

Daxxify is in a family of medicines known as neuromodulators, which includes the drugs Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau. The effects of these established neuromodulators typically last about three months, according to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS).

What’s different about Daxxify is that it may keep wrinkles at bay for even longer. In clinical trials submitted to the FDA for approval, 80 percent of people using Daxxify had no or minimally visible facial wrinkles after four months, and roughly half of participants still had little evidence of wrinkles at six months..

Facelift In A Syringe™(FLIAS)

(FLIAS) is Dr.West’s proprietary technique to sculpt and lift the face with minimal syringes in order to produce maximal natural results.

Aging is a normal part of life which is why Dr. West offers her patients the non-surgical facelift in Chevy Chase, MD and Aspen, CO. While it can be concerning and even frustrating to see the signs of aging begin to appear, there is now a great solution to turn back the clock on facial aging! In as little as one convenient appointment, you can regain the facial contours and confidence of your youth.

This patient was experiencing volume loss and noticeable jowls forming around the mouth. Dr. West performed a FLIAS utilizing three syringes of Restylane in the temples, around the mouth, and upwards the cheeks to give this patient a natural and subtle, yet dramatic lift. She looks like herself, but five years younger!

Fraxel® Dual Laser

With its patented technology, Fraxel is a fractional, non-ablative laser that targets both the superficial and deeper layers of skin for a fresher, smoother, and more youthful appearance. The deeply penetrating laser energy helps stimulate your body’s own collagen production. Fraxel is the optimal procedure for erasing acne scars, evening out brown and red spots, shrinking the appearance of pores, and improving texture.

The results of Fraxel Dual are both immediate and progressive. One week after the treatment, the surface of your skin will feel softer and smoother, looking brighter and displaying a more even tone. The next three-to-six months will bring more improvement as the deeper layers of the skin continue to create new collagen. A maintenance regimen of Clear + Brilliant® laser resurfacing treatments is recommended to enhance and prolong the results of a Fraxel Dual laser treatment. If patients continue with an effective cosmeceutical grade skincare routine, the results from the treatment will last for years.
