Facial Rejuvenation

While your bone structure remains constant without surgical intervention, modern advancements in aesthetic medicine now offer non-invasive facial rejuvenation modalities that deliver remarkable, long-lasting results—often lasting several months to years. These sophisticated treatments help restore a youthful, refreshed appearance without the need for incisions or extensive downtime.

Non-surgical facial rejuvenation works by addressing the underlying causes of visible aging—such as muscle movement, volume loss, and skin laxity. These treatments can smooth fine lines and wrinkles, subtly lift sagging skin, and replenish lost facial volume to enhance natural contours.

As we age, the gradual loss of facial fat and collagen contributes significantly to a more mature appearance. While surgery provides permanent changes, many non-surgical rejuvenation options can reverse these signs of aging, offering a refreshed look without altering your fundamental features.

How Does Facial Rejuvenation Work Without Surgery?

Non-surgical facial rejuvenation is ideal for individuals seeking effective, lower-risk alternatives to cosmetic surgery. With benefits such as minimal recovery time, reduced cost, and fewer complications, these treatments that we offer in-clinic produce impressive aesthetic results tailored to your goals.

At CoCo Dermatology and Cosmetics, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Mayha Patel, DO, FAAD, offers a curated selection of non-surgical treatments designed to refine and revitalize your appearance with precision and artistry.

Our facial rejuvenation modalities include:

✧ Thread Lifts

A thread lift provides a subtle, yet noticeable lift—similar to a mini facelift, but without the scalpel. During the procedure, Dr. Patel gently places dissolvable sutures beneath the skin to lift sagging tissue in areas such as the jowls or cheeks.

Over time, your body naturally produces collagen around the threads, extending the lifting and tightening effects long after the threads have dissolved.

✧ Cosmetic Injectables

Injectables like Botox® and dermal fillers remain among the most popular and effective non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments:

• Botox® works by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines.
• Dermal fillers restore volume lost through aging, enhancing areas like the cheeks, under-eye hollows, and lips. Fillers can also sculpt facial contours, producing a subtle lifting effect and a more youthful silhouette.

✧ Fotona 4D® Laser Resurfacing

Fotona 4D® is a groundbreaking, non-invasive laser treatment that rejuvenates the face from the inside out using a unique combination of four synergistic laser technologies—without needles or surgery. This advanced modality addresses both superficial and deeper layers of the skin, resulting in smoother texture, improved tone, and natural volume restoration.

The four dimensions of Fotona 4D® include:

1. SmoothLiftin™ (intraoral tightening) – a revolutionary treatment that stimulates collagen from within the mouth to lift and firm areas such as the cheeks and nasolabial folds.
2. FRAC3® – targets deeper imperfections such as pigmentation and vascular lesions, enhancing overall skin clarity.
3. PIANO® – delivers bulk tissue heating for deep collagen remodeling and tightening.
4. SupErficial™ – a light resurfacing treatment that improves skin texture and minimizes fine lines for a refined, polished finish.

Fotona 4D® is ideal for anyone seeking overall rejuvenation without downtime. It’s also an excellent complement to injectables or thread lifts, enhancing and prolonging the effects of other treatments.

✧ Chemical Peels

Chemical peels offer a time-tested solution for improving skin tone, texture, and clarity by gently exfoliating damaged surface layers and stimulating new cell growth. At CoCo Dermatology, we offer a curated selection of peels suited to a range of skin types and concerns:

• Jessner’s Peel: A medium-depth peel that targets acne, pigmentation, and fine lines while promoting collagen production. Ideal for sun-damaged or uneven skin. Expect mild redness and peeling for 3–5 days.
• TCA Peel: A deeper peel that effectively treats sun damage, fine wrinkles, and acne scars, enhancing skin firmness and tone. Downtime typically lasts 7–10 days with visible peeling and redness.
• Mandelic Acid Peel: A gentle, low-downtime option ideal for sensitive or acne-prone skin. Reduces inflammation, refines pores, and brightens the complexion with mild flaking over 2–4 days.

Chemical peels can be used alone or as part of a comprehensive rejuvenation plan for enhanced results and skin renewal.

How Long Do Facial Rejuvenation Results Last?

The longevity of your results will depend on the specific treatment modality used:

• Botox® typically provides results for 3 to 4 months, with the option for regular maintenance treatments.
• Dermal fillers vary by formulation—some last 6 to 12 months, while others can maintain results for up to two years.
• Thread lifts offer especially enduring results, with improvements lasting up to 2 years, thanks to collagen stimulation that continues even after the threads have been absorbed.
• Fotona 4D® results improve progressively over several weeks and can last 12 to 18 months, especially with ongoing maintenance and skincare.
• Chemical Peels: Varies by peel type but typically several months of improved tone and clarity with cumulative benefits over time.

Each treatment is fully customizable based on your facial anatomy, aging concerns, and aesthetic goals. Whether you’re looking for subtle enhancement or more noticeable rejuvenation, Dr. Patel will craft a plan that reflects your personal vision of beauty.
