BOTOX® Cosmetic, Laser Hair Removal, Restylane® and Microdermabrasion – Skin Treatments in Utah
Healthy, radiant skin is fundamental to facial rejuvenation. The limited results from over-the-counter skin care and skin rejuvenation products cannot compare to the impressive improvements in skin tone, texture, and overall appearance that are possible with the skin care lines and medically supervised skin treatments at our practice. We offer microdermabrasion, laser hair removal, BOTOX® Cosmetic, Restylane® and more at our Utah practice, so that you can effectively achieve beautiful skin.
Facial cosmetic surgery can reverse years of aging; however, if the surface texture and tone of your skin still reveals your "true age," then the results of your cosmetic procedure can be further enhanced with physician quality skin rejuvenation treatments and advanced formula skin care products. It is our commitment to the success of your post-surgical outcome that we highly endorse the skin care treatments and products available at our practice. Read on to learn more about our nonsurgical cosmetic treatments for the skin:
Skin Rejuvenation Treatments and Laser Hair Removal
Microdermabrasion – DermaGenesis® DermaPeel™ System
The “Lunchtime Peel”
Microdermabrasion at our Utah practice is a quick, comfortable, and relatively simple treatment for rejuvenating the skin. Using a gentle, controlled spray of micro crystals, our esthetician exfoliates dead skin cells and superficial imperfections from the skin to reveal the fresh, radiant skin underneath. Unlike other skin rejuvenating treatments that can cause redness and flaking, microdermabrasion is extremely mild and will not cause any skin discoloration or discomfort, allowing you to schedule your appointment during your lunch hour without any telltale signs of treatment afterward.
The benefits of microdermabrasion with the DermaPeel™ system include:
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines
- Smooths skin texture
- Reduces skin blemishes
- Evens skin tone and enhanced radiance
- Improves the skin’s ability to absorb moisture
- Refines the appearance of pores
- Lightens age spots
- Increases the skin’s elasticity and firmness
- Helps clear acne and unclogs pores, minimizing breakouts
- Helps prevent skin cancer by reducing pre-cancerous cells on the skin’s surface

Laser Hair Removal
Many people wish to remove facial and body hair they consider bothersome or a source of embarrassment. At The Institute of Facial and Cosmetic Surgery, we offer laser hair removal to permanently reduce the appearance of unwanted hair from the face, back, legs, arms, bikini line, underarms, or any other area of the body. Using light energy from a specialized laser, our esthetician targets the unwanted hair to disable the hair follicle, inhibiting its ability to regrow hair. Compared to other hair removal options such as waxing and electrolysis, laser hair removal is a relatively painless and efficient procedure that produces long-lasting results. Laser hair removal at our Utah practice may require multiple sessions or touch-ups to completely remove hair, depending on the size of the area being treated. Once treatments are complete, patients enjoy smooth, hair-free skin with no required maintenance.

BOTOX® Cosmetic – Wrinkle Treatment
No matter how well skin is preserved and pampered, eventually facial wrinkles will develop. Fortunately, there are a number of options available to remove the fine lines and deep creases that can accompany aging. BOTOX® Cosmetic, offered at our practice in Utah, is an extremely effective treatment for softening or eliminating wrinkles found between the brows (frown lines), along the forehead, around the eye area (crow’s feet), or around the mouth (smile lines). BOTOX® Cosmetic is developed from a purified protein toxin that, when injected by a trained professional, works to relax the targeted facial muscle to prevent wrinkle-causing overactivity. Results achieved with BOTOX® Cosmetic can last approximately four to six months before follow-up treatments are needed to maintain its wrinkle-reducing effects. Many of our patients who come to The Institute of Facial and Cosmetic Surgery, LLC in Utah for surgical procedures also have BOTOX® Cosmetic applied as a simple way to achieve more youthful looking skin.
Contact our plastic surgery practice in Salt Lake City, Utah for more information about how BOTOX® Cosmetic can quickly and easily diminish the appearance of wrinkles.

Restylane®
Restylane®, offered at our Utah practice, is a popular new dermal filler used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, as well as to add volume to targeted areas of the face and the lips. Composed mainly of hylauronic acid, a volume-maintaining substance found naturally in the skin, Restylane® bonds with water molecules beneath the skin to smooth wrinkles and keep lips looking full for up to six months. Our surgeon will inject Restylane® into the appropriate area using a micro needle; there may be some initial discomfort during treatment, and any residual swelling should subside shortly after your appointment. Because Restylane® is made of an innate compound in the skin, results are extremely natural looking, and allergic reactions are not a concern.
Contact us today for further information about Restylane® injections at our Utah practice to enhance the lips and fill wrinkles.

Facial Peels
We offer a broad range of both chemical and natural fruit acid peels to rejuvenate the skin. A facial peel is delivered through the application of a specially formulated solution to the face that exfoliates wrinkled, blemished, unevenly pigmented, or sun damaged facial skin. After the solution is applied, a chemical reaction within the skin causes dull, damaged layers to peel away, exposing the more youthful looking skin underneath. After a facial peel, pores are clear and appear more refined, fine lines are reduced, skin tone is brighter and more even, and skin feels softer and smoother. Depending on the depth of the peel desired, we have a number of options to help achieve differing degrees of skin renewal. The strength of the peel will determine the amount healing time required; weak peels may leave no signs of flaking or discoloration, whereas deeper peels may cause redness and shedding for a short period of time after treatment. (To help disguise redness after a peel, we offer camouflage makeup.)
Contact our practice for more information about our selection of natural fruit acid and chemical peels to refine the appearance of the skin.

Post-Operative Camouflage Makeup
After surgery, the skin can exhibit post-surgical discoloration and changes in texture due to bruising, peeling, or the emergence of new skin. If you have undergone a resurfacing treatment (dermabrasion or chemical peel), your skin will be extremely vulnerable during the healing process. Our camouflage system is a simple process. First, we will match your ‘natural’ skin color and then apply the camouflage cream using the appropriate application method for your post-operative condition. Our post-operative camouflage makeup will act as a protective barrier to minimize discoloration and defend the skin against the sun and other environmental factors.
