Non-Surgical Facial Treatments
Non-surgical facial treatments offer a way to refresh your appearance, soften signs of aging, and enhance facial balance without surgery and extended downtime. Over time, facial movement, volume loss, and changes in skin elasticity can lead to wrinkles, fine lines, and hollows in certain areas of the face. Injectable treatments such as Botox® and dermal fillers can address these concerns with precision, helping patients look more rested, balanced, and refreshed.
Every face is unique. Dr. Ryan Constantine will work closely with you to enhance your natural appearance using the same attention to detail and individualized planning as his surgical procedures. His goal is to enhance your natural features and restore balance—so results appear subtle, smooth, and authentic.
Who Is a Candidate for Non-Surgical Facial Treatments?
Non-surgical facial treatments may be right for you if you:
- Notice fine lines or wrinkles in expression areas, especially around the eyes and mouth
- Have lost facial volume in areas such as the cheeks or lips
- Want to soften deep folds or creases while maintaining natural expression
- Are looking for facial rejuvenation without surgery or downtime
- Prefer gradual, customizable improvements
Ideal candidates are in good overall health and have realistic expectations about what non-surgical treatments can achieve.
Benefits of Non-Surgical Facial Treatments
Benefits of non-surgical facial treatments can include:
- Smooth wrinkles and lines: Reduce the appearance of dynamic and static facial lines
- Restore lost volume: Replenish areas that have thinned or hollowed over time
- Enhance facial balance: Refine proportions while preserving natural features
- Require minimal downtime: Most patients return to daily activities the same day
- Deliver customizable results: Treatments can be adjusted to meet your goals over time
About the Procedure
Non-surgical facial injectables are administered in the office and typically take 15 to 45 minutes. Most treatments require little to no anesthesia, though topical numbing agents may be used to enhance comfort. Patients can expect minimal discomfort and little to no downtime. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur at injection sites but typically resolves within a few days. Treatment may be repeated periodically to preserve lasting results.
Treatment Options
BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic is an injectable neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the facial muscles that create expression lines. By softening muscle movement in these areas, BOTOX® smooths wrinkles while maintaining a natural, relaxed appearance.
BOTOX® Cosmetic may be used to:
- Smooth forehead lines
- Smooth frown lines between the brows
- Smooth crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes
Dermal Fillers
Injectable dermal fillers restore volume, enhance contours, and soften deeper lines and folds. Dr. Constantine uses FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm® and Restylane®, which integrate naturally into the skin and provide smooth, natural-looking results.
Fillers may be used to:
- Restore cheek volume
- Soften nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Enhance lip shape and definition
- Improve jawline or chin contour
- Address under-eye hollowing (in appropriate candidates)
Dr. Constantine carefully selects the filler type and placement technique to match each patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Recovery and Results
Recovery is usually brief:
- Immediately after treatment: Mild redness or swelling may occur; patients usually resume normal activities the same day.
- First few days: Minor bruising may be present in treated areas.
- One to two weeks: BOTOX® results fully develop; filler results settle and refine.
Results vary by treatment:
- BOTOX® Cosmetic: Typically lasts 3–4 months.
- Juvederm® and Restylane®: Results may last 6–18 months, depending on the product and treatment area.
Dr. Constantine provides guidance on maintaining results and scheduling future treatments as needed.
