Cosmetic Treatments
Create a more youthful appearance
Vanguard Medical Group offers the latest Cosmetic Treatments, including the use of Botox® and dermal fillers.
Treatments with Botox® and dermal fillers such as Juvederm® are performed in the office and require no down time. Clients can go home or back to work and no one will know that you’ve had a procedure, although they may comment that you look refreshed or younger in some way.
There are a variety of dermal fillers available today. They can be used to reduce wrinkles and add volume. In the example below, Dr. Carrazzone helps a patient achieve her desire for fuller, more symmetrical lips using Juvederm.

Client Testimonial
“I have always wanted fuller lips and it was so easy I wish I had done this much sooner. My lips are actually more symmetrical now than they were before, and I am constantly getting compliments that I look 10 years younger. Thank you Dr. Carrazzone!” (Name withheld at client’s request)
Juvederm®
Juvederm is an injectable gel that smooths away wrinkles and folds in your skin and bringing back its volume. As your skin ages it reduces production of a naturally hydrating substance, called hyaluronic acid (or “HA,” for short). The loss of HA results in wrinkles and folds, like those “parentheses” lines around your mouth.
Juvederm is a smooth-consistency HA gel and the only HA filler that is FDA approved to last up to one year. A Juvederm treatment consists of an office visit where the injectable gel is eased under the skin to instantly smooth the wrinkles and folds on your face. Results are seen immediately.
Juvederm injectable gel is indicated for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. It works equally well for men and women. There may be mild or moderate side effects with Juvederm, so be sure to ask your physician for complete information.
Botox® Cosmetic Treatments
Botox has become a popular form of safe and effective facial rejuvenation. It temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases and lines around the eyes commonly called “crow’s feet.” Its result is to make a person look refreshed, revitalized and younger.
Botox works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles, while giving the skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Treatment involves the injection of very tiny amounts of Botox into targeted areas. It is non-invasive and non-surgical and requires little or no “down-time.” Results are best after two or three days and treatments can last up to six months.
