Services
Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery rejuvenates the eyes by removing excess skin and fat. Ideal for patients with droopy lids or under-eye bags, this procedure creates a refreshed appearance. Dr. Lo's expertise ensures natural contours while improving vision obstruction caused by sagging skin. Recovery takes 1-2 weeks with long-lasting results.
BOTOX Injections
BOTOX reduces dynamic wrinkles through muscle relaxation. Administered by Dr. Ramanathan, treatments target forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines. Results appear within a week and last 3-4 months. The non-surgical option requires no downtime, allowing immediate return to daily activities.
Facelift
Facelifts address sagging skin and deep creases in the lower face and neck. Dr. Lo uses deep-plane techniques to lift underlying tissues for natural, long-lasting results. The procedure improves jawline definition and reduces wrinkles, with recovery spanning 2-3 weeks.
Dermal Fillers
Fillers like JUVDERM and Restylane restore facial volume and smooth wrinkles. Used for lip augmentation, cheek enhancement, and wrinkle reduction, these injectables provide immediate results lasting 6-18 months. Treatments take under 30 minutes with minimal discomfort.
Laser Resurfacing
Laser treatments improve skin texture and tone by stimulating collagen production. Effective for sun damage, scars, and fine lines, sessions require 3-7 days of recovery. The practice uses Erbium and ClearLift lasers for customized resurfacing with natural-looking outcomes.
