2024 is your year! This is the year you work on you! And what better way to kick off the year and get ready for spring/summer by treating yourself to some well-deserved beauty treatments.

As plastic surgeons, we do our best to make you feel comfortable in your skin. We provide a variety of different surgical options that can help you enhance your features and qualities to help boost your self-esteem. However, not everyone wants to undergo a surgical procedure just for cosmetic purposes.

Because surgical procedures can seem risky and require a lot more recovery time, a lot of plastic surgeons and med spas are offering non-surgical procedures that can temporarily help improve your skin and appearance without the downtime.

From injectables to skin treatments, we’ve selected 4 of our favorite non-surgical beauty treatments that you should consider for 2024!

Our Favorite Non-Surgical Beauty Treatments

Jawline Fillers

Did you know that the back of your jaw has the strongest muscle, per capita, in your body?  These jawline fillers, like Botox, can allow for softening/weaking of this muscle to help you get better shaping in your jawline.

You can then move forward in your jawline and add some fillers, or your own fat, to create more of a contour within your jawline to make it more pronounced.

This procedure has become very popular recently, especially because it can help alleviate pain from TMJ or TMJ induced migraines. So, if you’ve been suffering from TMJ related pain, and your dentist hasn’t been able to help, you may want to consider talking to a plastic surgeon.

Injectable Biostimulators

In terms of injectables, these biostimulators like Sculptra, help the body to produce its own collagen instead of relying on the fillers to “fill” in those areas of concern.

These fillers cause an inflammatory response at the injection site which causes your body to produce its own natural collagen to help fill in wrinkles or help smooth out problem areas in the skin.

Radiesse works similarly but stimulates a collagen response without causing an inflammatory response in the body.

One of the best parts of these biostimulators is that you go in for a couple treatments, 6-8 weeks apart, and the results can last for up to two years without intervention.

Minimally Invasive Neck Lifts

When most people think of a full-on neck lift, they think of major incisions, followed by removal of skin, and then a physical tightening, as the skin is brought together and sutured. But for minimally invasive neck lifts, we rely on radio frequencies and microneedling to help tighten up the skin in the neck.

In addition to the radio frequency treatments, a small incision can be made under the chin, which will allow the surgeon to help tighten up the skin and the muscles underneath, helping to produce a stronger neckline.

So, instead of the typical incisions and skin tightening used during a traditional neck lift, these minimally invasive ones will produce good results, without the need for multiple incisions.

Sub-Dermal Hydrator

SKINVIVE is the first “skin booster” available in the United States. With a small injection in your cheek, it helps to moisturize and boost the skin from the dermal level as opposed to the outer layer of your skin.

This can help add a little fat back into your face if you’ve lost weight in your face, while also providing moisture to dry skin. And since the procedure can last up to a few months, it doesn’t require a lot of maintenance and will have you looking your best throughout the summer months.

Look Your Best in 2024

As we start to move out of the winter months and into spring and summer 2024, it’s time to get those beach bodies ready! And while you’re focusing on getting your body in shape, why not enhance your skin as well!

Skin, on the face especially, is one of the first things that people see when they meet you. As you’re being introduced to someone new, where are you looking, typically into their eyes and then around their face, so why not look your best this summer when out on the town or hanging out with new friends.

These 4 non-surgical beauty treatments are a great way to enhance your facial features and give your skin that boost that it needs after coming out of the dry winter weather. And the best part about these procedures is that they are all minimally invasive and will allow you to get back to your everyday life as soon as you walk out the door.
