Combination therapies in oculofacial rejuvenation.

The oculo-facial surgeon's quest for non-invasive procedures is a response to increasing patient demands for enhanced results without any downtime. Technology has obliged us with multiple injectable and light therapeutic modalities that tighten skin, relax and fill in wrinkles, and improve skin dyspigmentation and texture. When these techniques are combined, the results are superior to the use of individual therapies alone. The foundation for combination therapies are: botulinum toxin, filling agents, chemical peels, intense pulsed light, non-ablative and ablative lasers.

An ophthalmologist's guide to chemical peels.

This article discusses the use of different chemical peels-very superficial, superficial, and medium depth. Once ophthalmologists understand the value and indications of this therapy, learn the techniques of application, and feel comfortable and confident with these methods, they should be able to treat the entire face.

Patient home care regimens.

Combinations of in-office and home care treatment modalities are effective in the improvement and maintenance of photodamaged skin. A regimen of daily internal supplementation and application of topical products will prolong and enhance the effects of noninvasive and surgical procedures.

Nonanimal stabilized hyaluronic acid for lip augmentation and facial rhytid ablation.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of nonanimal stabilized hyaluronic acid as an injectable filling agent. DESIGN: Nonrandomized, retrospective, interventional case series. RESULTS: A total of 1446 consecutive patients (1029 women and 417 men) underwent intradermal injection of commercially available nonanimal stabilized hyaluronic acid (2242 treatments) for the enhancement of lip volume and contour and the reduction of visible facial rhytids. Almost 61% of all patients remained satisfied with their results after 9 months. The effect was longest in the glabellar and nasolabial fold areas. Minimal transient sequelae were noted. CONCLUSIONS: Nonanimal stabilized hyaluronic acid is an effective and safe facial soft tissue expander. Its duration varies with each facial area treated.
