Radiesse is one of the longest-lasting injectable implants. Because of it's components and duration, Radiesse is more aptly referred to as an implant rather than a filler. It is used for soft tissue augmentation in the correction of deep facial folds and creases and restoration of volume loss in hollow facial areas.  Visit the Radiesse page. Visit the Radiesse page.

Midface Lift with the ENDOTINE Midface Device

Midface suspension, also called a midface lift, restores the natural curves and fullness in the cheeks by moving soft tissues back to where they were earlier. This is achieved by elevating the soft midface tissue from the bone, repositioning it upward towards the eyes, and fixating it in place until it readheres naturally to the bone.

A New Approach for midface suspension allows the surgeon to quickly lift and secure tissue at a new, more youthful position by using an implant called the ENDOTINE Midface device. This innovative device offers your surgeon a predictable alternative for cheek suspension, enabling shortened surgical times and improved aesthetic outcomes.  For more information, Visit the Midface Lift page.

JUVENSSE
The all-natural anti-aging and anti-oxidant preparation.

This is the most advanced antioxidant and anti-aging preparation containing OMEGA 3, OMEGA 6, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and ZINC which is ideal for daily use to prevent the appearance of cutaneous aging.

The formulation includes two vegetable-based oils rich in essential fatty acids that belong to the omega 6 and omega 3 series. Their properties are known for being precursors of prostaglandins (which delays the appearance of wrinkles) and of leukotrienes (which form part of the cellular membrane, increasing water retention and are antioxidants, contributing noticeable to cellular regeneration). 

In order to work properly, they must be produced in situ and have a medium-short life span which means we are constantly searching for them. The presence of vitamins with antioxidant properties prevents aging and provides the capsules with a capturing and degenerating action on the free radicals.

The presence of trace elements is basic for maintaining the skin in good health since it has been shown that ZINC has antioxidant properties as well as a recognized anti-fungal and bactericidal action on the dermis and epidermis.

It avoids wrinkles appearing, due to its high capacity in stimulating the cellular regeneration processes, constantly renewing the epidermal cells and thus preserving the features of a youthful skin.

This unique preparation is used by people all over the world as a safe and all natural aid in preserving collagen strength. For women there is additional scientific evidence that the OMEGA 3 and OMEGA 6 components aid in the prevention of HEART DISEASE.

AVAILABLE BY PRESCRIPTION ONLY at the JUVENSSE SKIN CARE CLINIC.



Computer Imaging

Imaging appointments can be scheduled by calling 650 340-7200.


Vitamin C for Facial Rejuvenation
Everyone is talking about Vitamin C! It's on television, in magazines and on the radio. What makes it so special? Ozone and other free radical's in our environment are strong oxidants that are chemically very aggressive: they destroy cells and cause premature aging skin. Antioxidants, such as Vitamin Care able to detoxify these free radicals into harmless substances that won't damage our skin. 

Three Good Reasons For Vitamin C
Vitamin C can prevent and repair sun damage to the skin (photo-protective effect). The skin gets considerably less damage if a significant amount of Vitamin C is applied topically before you apply your sunscreen and get sun exposure. Skin also recovers quickly from sun damage after a topical application of Vitamin C.
Vitamin C in moderate concentration has an anti-pigment function. Pigmentation of the skin results from sun exposure and the age process.
Vitamin C significantly improves skin tone. It keeps our collagen healthy.

Topical delivery of Vitamin C is more efficient and effective at restoring your skin's level of depleted Vitamin C than taking it by mouth. It's proven that Vitamin C once absorbed into the Skin cannot be rubbed off, washed off, or perspired off, and it's there in reserve for 3 days! There are a variety of topical vitamin C products on the market including SKIN CEUTICALS ( make a link to our Skin Center  Area) serums and creams. With a skin consultation we can examine your skin and select a complete skin care plan to help you in selecting the right skin care regimen.


New Laser for Wrinkle Treatment
Do you have wrinkles around your eyes, lips or cheeks which you would like to improve but do not have the luxury of time for recovery. Now, an innovative technology available at the Premier Plastic Surgery allows Dr. Newman to perform treatments on individual wrinkles with no external wound. The "Cool Touch" Laser uses a specialized cooling spray to the outer surface of the skin while penetrating to the collagen layer of the skin to stimulate new collagen production and reduce your wrinkles. Wrinkles can be treated during a short office appointment and have you back in your office or at home with no interruption of your vocational or social life. The "Cool Touch" laser differs from carbon dioxide and erbium lasers where the outer layer of the skin needs to be vaporized to produce changes. These lasers leave a controlled burn on the skin which produces swelling and redness which have longer healing times. With the "Cool Touch" laser, patients benefit from a brief procedure with minimal discomfort and are able to return to work or home with no wound or dressing to take care of. Improved results have already been achieved, and there are no needles for anesthesia as most patients experience little discomfort.
