Lower Eye Rejuvenation and Cheek Lift without Surgery: Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Dean Kane of Maryland uniquely uses Radiesse and Chemical Peel to give a non-surgical eyelift.

Many women and men want to rejuvenate their lower eye lids, but do not want to undergo surgery. Dr. Dean Kane, Plastic Surgeon of Maryland uniquely uses the filler Radiesse to fill and  plump the lower lid to give a Non-Surgical Lower Eyelid and Cheek lift. Patients come to their office complaining of dark circles, hollowness or excess bagging of their lower lids and prefer to not have to use surgery to correct their problems.  Some patients are not candidates for surgery as they have a severe lower lid laxity and would be at higher risk. Nor not all doctors can perform this very unusual procedure. Dr. Kane has been performing this particular technique for several years having developed his unique approach to non-surgical eye lift.

Why Radiesse
? Radiesse is a filler made out of fine ground up bone calcium. It has a thick white appearance like Elmer’s glue. It is perfect to use under the lower eyelids as the white density covers over the blue or dark circles when Dr. Kane injects the filler deep under the skin just over the cheek bone and along the lower lid. It is perfect to build up the cheek mound, fill in the deep wells of the lower lids and camouflage the bags. To complete the rejuvenation, for patients who have been using the Kane’s skin line Emerge or Obagi Products, Dr. Kane uses a quick chemical peel just under the lower lids to peel away the crepey fine lines and wrinkles. Patients look refreshed and awake with their non-surgical eyelid lift.

Dr. Kane easily performs the lower lid rejuvenation in his office within a 20 minute office visit using only local anesthesia and ice. There is no preparations needed and patients can drive home themselves. There can be mild bruising, but cover-up make-up easily camouflages any bruise enough that patients are able to return to work. Make sure you see these wonderful results in Dr. Kane’s photo gallery on his website: www.DrDeanKane.com. During the week of July 6th, Dr. Kane will be offering this very unique procedure at a wonderful promotional savings that you can see on his website.

Dr. Dean Kane, Plastic Surgeon of Baltimore now offers his patients the newest version of Fillers that contain lidocaine: Juvederm Ultra, Restylane and Perlane now are not only more affordable, but much less painful.

Dr. Dean Kane, Plastic Surgeon of Baltimore now offers his patients the newest version of Fillers that contain lidocaine: Juvederm Ultra, Restylane and Perlane now are not only more affordable, but much less painful. It is now possible to be plumped and filled and with much less discomfort. Dr. Dean Kane from his Maryland’s Center of Cosmetic Surgery and Medi-Spa offers his patients the newest versions of Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus, Restylane and Perlane. So many patients who have wanted to have fuller and more defined lips but were afraid of the pain, now express the incredible difference the lidocaine has made for them. Both Allergan the makers of Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus and Medicis the creators of Restylane and Perlane now manufacture their fillers by pre-mixing lidocaine, a numbing medicine with the hylauronic gel fillers within the same syringe. Maryland patients of Dr. Kane are so pleased with not only the terrific results, but have a much more comfortable and positive experience of being injected by a filler.

So many patients ask two questions consistently: One, what is the difference between all the fillers? And two what is the difference between Restylane vs Perlane and Ultra vs Ultra Plus? The first answer is the same as the concept between Coke and Pepsi. As we described in an earlier blog for the difference between Botox and Dysport, the same applies here. It is two companies producing very similar filler products made out of hylauronic acid. Hylauronic acid is a natural substance found in our skin that gives us the plumpness in our face. When we age we tend to lose this plumpness and Dr. Kane uses these filler products to refill those areas of the face that have lost its fullness, such as the nasal folds, hollows under the eyes, marionette lines and any facial wrinkle lines.

The second question: What is the difference between Restylane and Perlane or Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus? The differences are basically the size of the molecular structure of the hylauronic acid gels. Both Perlane and Juvederm Ultra Plus are larger molecules which give a bigger volume fill and have been found to last longer from 8 to 12 months. Most patients opt for the larger gel size to achieve greater fill and better plumping with longer lasting effects.
 
Right now, Medicis is offering a mail-in rebate of $50 per syringe up to 3 syringes. Patients of Dr. Kane’s are saving in two ways. Dr. Kane has offered his own promotion, the more you use the more you save: 10% off of 1 Syringe, 15% off 2, 20% off of 3 or more. The combination of the two offers gives Dr. Kane’s patient’s savings up to $540 on 3 Perlane syringes. But Medicis is ending their mail-in rebate on March 31st, so patients need to act quickly if they want these wonderful savings.
