Botox treatments available in Cleveland

“During our consultation, I will sit and talk with you. With a mirror I’ll ask, ‘What bothers you?’ Then I’ll look at the condition of your skin, your sun damage, your age, the thickness of your muscles – we are very careful to analyze your structural needs. And because of our expertise and experience, we are going to tailor our treatment to fit you and your goals.”

“No one will ever know you’ve had BOTOX®, if it’s done right,” explains Dr. Vanek, who has practiced aesthetic medicine in Cleveland, Ohio since 1996. “You just look softer next week – that’s it. You look more approachable, youthful and vibrant.”

Dr. Vanek and his staff believe in tailoring every procedure to help you reach your aesthetic goals. “Until you come in for a consultation, we won’t know what you need for a refreshed appearance. Maybe a dermal filler makes more sense. Strategically adding volume to your face takes that severe, gaunt look away, removing the aged appearance that makes you look tired.”

What are some injectables that Dr. Vanek offers?

Dr. Vanek uses BOTOX® Cometic to relax facial muscles which in turn softens and diminishes wrinkles. When your facial muscles contract, they tighten, fold and wrinkle the skin. BOTOX® temporarily inhibits muscle contraction. Other agents on the market with similar effects include Xeomin and Dysport.

JUVÉDERM® and Restylane® dermal fillers

JUVÉDERM® is a dermal filler used by Dr. Vanek to plump lips and fill in fine-line wrinkles around the lips. Hyaluronic acid is naturally occurring, found in soft tissues of the human body and is the basis of JUVÉDERM®. Because of its bio-compatibility, the results last approximately six months to a year. Restylane® is made from hyaluronic acid, has similar properties to JUVÉDERM® and is used to treat similar areas.

Radiesse®

Dr. Vanek uses a long-lasting dermal filler called Radiesse® to fill in deeper wrinkles and even scars. It is made from a naturally occurring calcium mineral found in human bones and teeth. Radiesse® results last a long time, it stays supple in the tissue and dissolves over time.

Sculptra®

Sculptra® is used by Dr. Vanek to add volume to areas of the face where fat loss has occurred. Comprised of a bio-compatible lactic acid, Sculptra® triggers collagen production, so over time, the skin thickens in the desired areas for a fuller and more youthful appearance.

How long is the recovery?

“Each product is different, and used differently, so the recovery times are very different. Let’s say you have a big event coming up and you want to look refreshed and rejuvenated, you only need a few days to be ‘camera ready’ after a JUVÉDERM® treatment,” explains Dr. Vanek, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. “You’ll look your best about one to two months after a Radiesse® treatment. Radiesse® triggers collagen production so you get a very natural look after some time. Five days after a BOTOX® treatment, you’ll have a softer appearance, but it will take about two months for deep wrinkle remodeling to occur.”

In addition to injectable treatments, Dr. Vanek offers a variety of minimally-invasive procedures to rejuvenate your appearance, including high-tech laser-based treatments and his line of personally formulated skin use agents – Vanek cosmeceuticals. Dr. Vanek is a bio-chemist and researcher who has participated in NIH- and FDA-funded studies.
