			BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, nonsurgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people from 18 to 65 years of age. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).For more about Botox® treatments at Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery, go to the Botox® page.
			Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. Its job is to help provide fullness and elasticity. Over time, skin loses hyaluronic acid. And as it diminishes, skin loses volume, increasing the chances for wrinkles and folds to appear. Restylane® provides rejuvenating cosmetic beauty treatments for a natural, younger-looking you. Restylane® is the world’s best-selling dermal filler. It is well tolerated, nonsurgical, and long lasting (usually around six months).For more about Restylane® treatments at Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery, go to the Restylane® page.
			PREVELLE, a new and exciting hyaluronic acid (HA) gel, is injected just under the skin’s surface to temporarily fill wrinkles for a more youthful appearance.For more about Prevelle™ treatments at Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery, go to the Prevelle™ page.
			As we age, our skin changes. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. But, with Juvéderm® injectable gel, you don’t have to just sit back and let it happen! Juvéderm® is the only hyaluronic acid (HA) filler FDA approved to last up to one year.For more about Juvéderm® treatments at Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery, go to the Juvéderm® page.
