RADIESSE® wrinkle filler

With age, collagen production in our skin starts to slow down, resulting in the facial lines and wrinkling that makes us appear older. Radiesse is a unique product that can be injected at the site of wrinkles, to fill-in areas of decreased collagen and stimulate the body’s own natural collagen production. The results are immediate and last a year or more in most patients. The procedure is simple and quick and requires very little time away from normal activities.

BOTOX® cosmetic injections

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple treatment that can temporarily smooth frown lines between the brows, typically in people from 18 to 65 years of age.

One several minute treatment of a few tiny injections reduces the activity of muscles that cause frown lines to form between the eyes. Within days of a treatment there is a noticeable improvement; and results typically last 3-4 months. However, results may vary.

All treatments are administered by a Dallas Family Medicine physician, experienced and well trained, at our Family Medical Clinic.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a quick and non-intrusive procedure for someone to undergo to enhance their self-image, and feel less self-conscious. In addition, it is fairly economical. Cost is based on the number of units used and is usually between $200 and $300.

General Information

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the activity of the muscles that cause frown lines between the brows that form over time. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 1

Before choosing to undergo BOTOX® Cosmetic injections one should thoroughly explore whether the procedure is appropriate for herself/himself with a qualified physician.

BOTOX® has been used for neurological conditions, at a significantly higher dose than what is used for aesthetics, for years. Since initial approval 18 years ago reports of serious adverse events with BOTOX® are rare; however, please click the following link for important safety information.

the importance of skin care cannot be underestimated

The skin is the largest organ of the human body. It protects the internal body from the external environment, acting both as a barrier and a filter between the outside and inside of the body. Proper skin care is vital, not just for outer beauty, but for maintaining the health of the inner body as well.

The skin’s functions, and the ways to properly care for the skin, are many. Dallas Family Medicine is committed to educating our patients about their skin and how to correctly care for it. Our physicians and staff are always available to discuss this very serious element of healthcare.

Skin Bella™ crystal-free microdermabrasion

Skin Bella is a particle-free microdermabrasion procedure that uses high speed oscillation, similar to ultrasound technology, to exfoliate, clear and invigorate the skin. No abrasive crystals or other particulates are used, as are with other microdermabrasion procedures; so it is gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive, rosacea and acneic skin.

It effectively removes dead skin cells, excess oil, and cosmetic residue. Pores are cleared resulting in deeply cleansed, smooth skin. It turns pale, dull complexions into healthy, radiant looking skin. 1 The treatment is an invigorating "lunchtime" procedure with no down time. The results are a fresh and vibrant glow!

Skin Bella is performed by Dallas Family Medicine's medical staff that have received extensive training in the procedure, as well as family medicine in general.

The cost begins at $65. Results may vary. Please feel free to contact our staff if you would like more information. 503.623.2345
