The Sierra Eye & Laser Institute offers the following cosmetic procedures:

BOTOX® Cosmetic

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 lines, and lines on the neck. Made from a purified protein, BOTOX® injections relax wrinkles and give the face a rejuvenated look. BOTOX® may also be useful for migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and eye and neck muscle spasms.

Restylane®

Restylane® is designed to smooth wrinkles, sculpt lips and shape facial contours. It is a clear, synthetic gel made with hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that is found throughout your body. It carries little risk of allergic reaction. The most common areas for treatment are the glabellar lines (between the eyebrows), the nasolabial folds (from the root of the nose to the angle of your mouth) and the lips. With its unique ability to bind with water, Restylane remains in your skin for over six months. Schedule your consultation for a no-incision eyelid tuck.

Juvéderm™

Juvederm 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. Juvederm comes in three formulas optimized for the depth of the area being treated. Results last about 6-9 months and can be made to last even longer with a simple follow-up treatment a few weeks after the initial injection.

Laser Facial Rejuvenation & Resurfacing

These procedures are like turning back the hands of time. They reduce age spots and help stimulate new skin for a youthful look. Improve and smooth the texture of the skin on your face by removing damaged outer layers. Facial skin rejuvenation improves the following conditions:

Laser Skin Resurfacing

Using state-of-art laser technology to remove aged or sun-damaged skin, the laser vaporizes lined and wrinkled imperfect skin, painlessly restoring a younger natural look.

Chemical Peels & Microdermabrasion

Sun damaged skin and various skin problems are associated with the excess buildup of dead skin cells which makes your skin thick and appear dull. Our chemical peel is a controlled removal of surface skin cells that reveal the healthy fresh skin underneath. It will improve your skin's appearance, texture and tone.

Treatment of Spider Veins

Spider veins are small thin clusters of red, purple or blue veins that lie close to the surface of the skin. They affect millions of people and commonly appear on the thighs and legs. They can be removed with a simple procedure that requires no anesthesia, using a laser or an injection, causing the veins to collapse and fade away. Patients resume their normal activities immediately.
