Services
Botox
Botox treatments reduce facial wrinkles by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles. Ideal for forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines, this non-surgical option delivers natural-looking results within days. Dr. Llaurado personally administers injections to ensure precision and symmetry, with effects lasting 3-4 months. Patients appreciate minimal downtime and the ability to combine treatments with dermal fillers for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers restore facial volume and smooth wrinkles using hyaluronic acid-based products. Treatments address nasolabial folds, lip augmentation, and cheek contouring with immediate visible improvements. Results last 6-18 months depending on the filler type and area treated. Dr. Llaurado's expertise ensures balanced enhancement while maintaining natural facial expressions, with options for dissolving fillers if needed.
Microneedling
Microneedling stimulates collagen production to improve skin texture and reduce scars or stretch marks. This minimally invasive procedure creates micro-injuries that trigger the body's healing response, enhancing skin firmness and clarity. Combining microneedling with PRP therapy amplifies results. Most patients require 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal outcomes, with minimal downtime.
SculpSure
SculpSure targets stubborn fat in areas like the abdomen, thighs, and chin using light-based technology. Non-invasive treatments destroy fat cells permanently, with visible results appearing over 6-12 weeks. Each 25-minute session requires no downtime, allowing immediate return to daily activities. Ideal for patients near their ideal weight seeking targeted fat reduction without surgery.
Facelift
The in-office facelift addresses lower face sagging and jowls using local anesthesia for minimal downtime. Dr. Llaurado's technique tightens skin and underlying tissues for natural, long-lasting results (5-10 years). Performed in-office over 2 hours, recovery allows return to light activities within 3-5 days. Combines well with eyelid surgery or Botox for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
