Healthy smooth skin is part of a radiant youthful appearance. Dr. Greenspun can help beautify and rejuvenate your skin with a number of non-invasive treatments. Our practice utilizes the most current and effective (FDA) approved injectibles and fillers. Many non-surgical treatments can be done painlessly and without "down-time" so as not to interfere with a busy and active lifestyle.
Smoothing out folds and wrinkles can make an enormous difference to your appearance. Injectable fillers such as RESTYLANE®, PERLANE® and JUVEDÉRM® AND RADIESSE® can be used to add volume below deep wrinkles and unwanted folds on your face to give you a younger, rejuvenated look. It can also be used to help your lips look naturally fuller. No pre-testing is required before treatment with this product that contains hyaluronic acid, a substance that is normally found throughout the body.
RESTYLANE® is formulated as a gel that is injected with a tiny needle into the deeper layers of the skin to provide instantaneous results. Results are long lasting but not permanent. RESTYLANE® results typically last between six and eight months.

Collagen is a natural substance found throughout the body. As we get older, the composition of our body's collagen changes, and lines and wrinkles develop. Collagen therapy can be used to fill in fine lines and wrinkles as well as improve the contour of some scars. Cosmoderm® and Cosmoplast® are collagen products that Dr. Greenspun injects below the skin's surface to redefine facial features and smooth unwanted lines and contours. No pre-testing is needed before treatment with either Cosmoderm® or Cosmoplast®. Both products are formulated with built-in anesthetics and treatment in the office takes less than an hour. Results are immediate and your body will slowly absorb the collagen; your face will gradually return to its original contour over about six month's time.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein that allows Dr. Greenspun to target the facial muscles that cause unwanted wrinkles. BOTOX® can temporarily smooth the wrinkles that result from repeated facial movements. It is the only non-surgical treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Doses of BOTOX® are administered directly into the muscles responsible for creating facial lines. A few tiny injections block nerve impulses to these muscles, leaving the overlying skin smoother and more relaxed for months. No anesthesia is required and you can return to most activities almost immediately after you leave the office.
Also called fat grafting, fat injection, micro-lipoinjection or fat transplantation, fat transfer involves the removal and relocation of a patient’s own body fat to plump up areas that have lost volume. Fat can be used as a filler to smooth unwanted wrinkles and folds that occur as we grow older. Loss of volume may also occur as a result of injury, surgery, or from other causes such as acne scarring. Fat can be obtained from the abdomen, buttocks or thighs and subsequently inserted into the area being treated. Both sites are numbed with local anesthesia so that the procedure is painless. Because transplanted fat is obtained from your own body, it does not carry a risk of allergic reaction or rejection. Only a short recovery period is required to achieve long-lasting results.
Laser skin resurfacing, commonly called a laser peel, removes the outer, often damaged, layer of skin to produce a smoother younger look. Laser resurfacing can reduce the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles and fine lines. Dr. Greenspun uses a laser to remove the damaged layers of your skin and reveal the undamaged layers beneath. Procedure time varies depending on the size of the area being treated and whether it is combined with other procedures such as a browlift or eyelid surgery for even more dramatic results.
Chemical Peels can be used to remove the outer damaged layers of your skin and give you a healthy glowing look. Peels can also help remove fine lines and skin blemishes. Some lighter chemical peels can be done in just a few minutes and do not require any recovery time. Dr. Greenspun works with you to select the type and strength of peel that will help reduce the visible signs of aging and restore vitality to your skin.
