Botox Demo by Dr. Brian Kerr, Boise

Here I am....time to get Botox injections again.  I get them about three or four times a year depending on the area.  I think I'm about 49 in this video, and I think you can see that Botox has helped me from developing static wrinkles on my forehead, around my eyes and above my lips.

A fun announcement:  We were recently named the only Platinum Plus Provider for Botox, Juvederm, and Latisse in the State of Idaho.  We thank all of our great clients for supporting us.  Botox and filler treatments are our specialty.  Dr. Kerr and our Nurse Injector, Rachel are skilled in advanced Botox techniques that can help a client achieve a younger look without looking frozen. That's probably the biggest fear that clients have to overcome....but if they go to an experienced injector with knowledge of the right techniques, their fears just dissolve away.  

Botox has also been used on and off label cosmetically for the following:

• Remove Wrinkles (not just "elevens" between the eyes) forehead, and around the eyes. 
• Eliminate smoker's lines
• Give the upper and lower lips a "pout"
• Relax muscles of lower face to give the corners of the mouth a lift
• Eyebrow lift
• Open the eyes for a wider look (non-surgical eye lift)
• Relax muscles in the lower jaw to give face a slimmer more feminine look
• Relax neck bands 
• Migraine headaches (recently FDA approved)  Usually 6 months to a year of relief with one time treatment. 
• Excessive Sweating of underarms, hands & feet

Botox is one of the safest drugs on the market with millions of injections being given each year.  Using Botox consistently when wrinkles start to form (usually thirties) can stop aging in its tracks.  More on Botox.....

Pelleve Wrinkle Reduction - Silk Touch Medspa brings new skin tightening treatment to Boise, Idaho

Pellevé is the newest innovation in skin tightening and it is right here at Silk Touch Medspa and Laser Center in Boise & Eagle, Idaho. FDA cleared to treat facial wrinkles without surgery, this treatment uses advanced radio wave technology. The Pelleve system precisely heats the deep layers of the skin without damaging the epidermis. The heat causes the collagen in the skin to contract and tighten. After the treatment, the skin begins to produce new collagen, which improves the firmness. No anesthesia is required and patients can return to work immediately after the procedure. Many clients see results after just one treatment, with improvements up to six months later. Facial treatments take only an hour. Pellevé fits easily into busy schedules. This is the perfect treatment to tighten arms, buttocks, face . We will pair this treatment with the Co2 fractional skin treatment and this treatment is particularly effective when trying to tighten the neck area to get an even better result when we use Smart lipo or laser liposuction. This is the only laser that can give you a neck lift without surgery.

Dr. Kerr and Susie met Doctors Sarnoff & Gotkin* at The Aesthetics Show in Las Vegas, and were impressed with the lectures there. "We were particularly impressed with the lecture on Skin Resurfacing with the CO2 fractional laser. We were pleasantly surprised to find ourselves in a room with some of the best doctors in the country who happened to be getting trained on the Pellevé system," said Susie, Managing Director.

"Certification on the Pellevé treatment was being conducted by Dr. Michael Stampar and we had the opportunity to see the skin tightening results for ourselves. Dr. Sarnoff & Dr. Gotkin had already purchased and were using the Pellevé System and were quite excited about the results they were already getting. We were excited about bringing this new technology back to Idaho!"
