Skin Treatments
We often think of surgery to address the changes of facial aging. However, for many patients, lasting and dramatic changes can be achieved with skin care alone. The effects of sunlight, diet, stress, and smoking all contribute to facial aging.
A guided and regular skin care regimen can improve skin tone and color, smooth fine wrinkles, and create a more youthful face. Dr. Griffin recommends coordination of your skin care regimen with a licensed and dedicated skin care professional.

BOTOX®
BOTOX® Cosmetic is an injectable agent that is used to smooth wrinkles, and create a younger, more rested facial appearance. BOTOX® injections are performed by Dr. Griffin around the eyes, at the frown lines, and at the forehead. BOTOX® works by selectively paralyzing facial muscles, which results in softening, and in many cases, elimination of facial wrinkles. This popular and effective treatment lasts 3 to 6 months.
Injectable Fillers
Dr. Griffin offers Restylane®, Juvederm® and other injectable fillers in the office. The main ingredient in most of these fillers is Hyaluronic Acid. Differences include how soft each injectable is, and how long the effects last. Duration of effects is generally 4 to 9 months. The hyaluronic acid fillers are very effective in smoothing the smile lines, filling deep facial wrinkles, and for lip enhancement.
Latisse™
The first and only prescription treatment approved by the FDA for inadequate or not having enough eyelashes, growing them longer, fuller and darker.
