Wrinkle Relaxers – Botulinum Toxin
Botulinum toxin is a naturally occurring neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. Despite its potentially harmful effects in its natural state, when purified and used in controlled medical settings, it has proven to be a valuable therapeutic and cosmetic tool. The most well-known brands of botulinum toxin used for medical and cosmetic purposes include Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin.

Botulinum toxin primarily works by blocking nerve signals in the muscles where it is injected. It inhibits the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that facilitates muscle contractions. By disrupting this communication, botulinum toxin temporarily paralyzes or weakens the targeted muscles, preventing them from contracting fully. This effect is particularly useful in treating conditions related to muscle hyperactivity or spasms.
At Dorado Dermatology, Dr. Schwartz ensures that every injection is an artful application, tailoring the treatment to your unique facial structure. As a board-certified dermatologist, she combines technical precision with a keen eye for aesthetic balance, promising you a refreshed and natural appearance.

Fillers
Dermal fillers are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to restore volume and smoothness to the face by injecting a gel-like substance beneath the skin's surface. As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen, fat, and hyaluronic acid, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and a loss of facial fullness. Dermal fillers are used to address these signs of aging, providing a rejuvenated and more youthful appearance.
-
The most common type of dermal fillers is composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain skin hydration and elasticity. When injected, hyaluronic acid fillers plump up the skin, smoothing out wrinkles and adding volume to areas that may have lost their youthful contours.
The procedure is typically quick, with minimal discomfort. Dr. Schwartz offers topical numbing prior to most filler procedures. The results are immediate, offering a noticeable improvement in facial lines and volume loss. The effects of hyaluronic acid fillers are temporary and can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on the specific product used and individual factors.

Clear and Brilliant Laser
What is Clear + Brilliant?
Clear + Brilliant is a non-invasive fractional laser treatment that targets the early signs of aging and skin imperfections. It harnesses the power of laser energy to gently resurface the skin, improving tone, texture, and overall skin quality.
How Does Clear + Brilliant Work?
The laser technology in Clear + Brilliant creates microscopic treatment zones on the skin's surface, promoting collagen production and accelerating the natural skin renewal process. This controlled damage stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin cells, revealing a smoother and more radiant complexion.
