There are also the residual effects of bruising and swelling as a result of facelifts, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, dermabrasion and laser resurfacing. Cosmed can offer remedies like permanent makeup and temporary camouflage to correct your skin problems and dramatically improve your appearance.

BOTOX

botox, san diegoBotulinum toxin, otherwise known as Botox, is a popular non-surgical injection that can temporarily reduce or eliminate frown lines, forehead creases, crow’s feet, and other unwanted facial lines. Botox is effective because the toxin blocks nerve impulses, which temporarily paralyzes the muscles that cause wrinkles. The result is a refreshed and youthful appearance. The effects of Botox have also been proven to relieve migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and muscle spasms in the neck and eyes. Cosmed’s board-certified plastic surgeons and medical staff have years of experience with successful Botox injection and hundreds of satisfied patients.

Fillers

The combination of gravity, sun exposure, and years of smiling, chewing and squinting, can take a toll on our faces. As we age, underlying tissues in our faces break down and leave laugh lines, smile lines, crow’s feet or facial creases anywhere when muscle movement has occurred.

Soft-tissue fillers can fill these lines and creases, and temporarily restore your youthful appearance. These fillers are typically composed of collagen or fat, which is injected beneath the skin to plump up sunken areas of the face, lips, and cheeks.

Injectable fillers may be used alone or in conjunction with a resurfacing procedure, such as a laser treatment, or a recontouring procedure, such as a facelift. At Cosmed we offer a wide selection of facial fillers from your own FAT TRANSPLANTED to semi permanent and permanent materials such as Artecoll®, Hyaluronic Acid (Restylane®, Perlane®), Polycrilamida (Aquamid®) that wonderfully work for lip enhancement and correction of facial expression lines. Contact Cosmed to schedule your consultation today and discover the best solution for your face.




CO2 Laser

Mesotherapy

mesotherapy, tijuanaThis new therepy is being implemented for overall weight loss, spot weight reduction, cellulite reduction, hair loss, scar revision and wrinkle elimination. The technique of Mesotherapy uses a tiny needle to inject medication into the mesoderm layer of the skin to warrant specific results. Patients have reported that Mesotherapy treatments cause less pain than a quick pinch. Mesotherapy is also a corrective measure for lumps, unevenness, and divots that develop after liposuction.

This procedure was internationally recognized in 1987 at the French Academy of Medicine. The medications that are used in Mesotherapy melt the fat beneath the skin and shrink the fat cells in the Scarpa's fascia layer. The fat dissolves and is excreted by the kidneys and the bowel without any changes in your bowel habits.

Mesotherapy is also a measure used to reduce or eliminate cellulite, which is caused by connective tissue bands that hold down the skin and trap the fat. The medications used in Mesotherapy destroy the connective tissue bands and melt the trapped fat, resulting in a dimple-free appearance.

For cellulite, weight loss, and spot weight reduction, Cosmed’s board-certified plastic surgeons directed inject the medications into the specified areas. After around 5 or more treatments, patients can notice a significant change in size, an improved and smoother skin tone. The fat is melted, dissolved, and is excreted through the kidneys and bowel.
