Operating rooms, anesthesia, and surgical knives can be daunting. Many patients want to restore their facial appearance but do not want to undergo surgical procedures such as facelift or eyelid surgery. As more technologies and treatments become available, new options for targeting facial aging have come to light that are less invasive and require minimal downtime. Injectables are among the most requested non-surgical treatments. Dr. Taylor can effectively provide a “non-surgical facelift” by combining prescription-only injectable skin treatments. Patients can address unwanted changes caused by aging, heredity, and sun exposure to create a rejuvenated appearance.
