Aesthetics

How you look is important. Anti-Aging and Functional Medicine we provide Hair Transplantation, Sclerotherapy for Spider Veins, and Juvederm & Restylane dermal filler injections. Dr. Arthur Zacco performs these himself.

Juvederm & Restylane are naturally occurring aesthetics injectable agents used for lip enhancement and to soften facial lines and creases

Facial aging includes things like:
  • Thinning of the lips
  • Deepening of the nasolabial folds
  • Development of lines running vertically downward from the corners of the mouth.

Indeed Juvederm & Restylane aesthetics injections can, in many cases, instantly and dramatically improve these features. Juvederm & Restylane can also improve some depressed scars and also vertical lines around the mouth.

Our patients see immediate results following dermal filler injections.  Most popular fillers are temporary, lasting 6-12 months.

Both Juvederm & Restylane are dermal fillers that consist of Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in your skin that provides the overall fullness and elasticity. Over time skin starts to lose the hyaluronic acid causing the skin to lose volume which in turn can lead to wrinkles and folds to appear from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

Another type of non-surgical anti-aging method is Sclerotherapy

This aesthetics injectable helps to get rid of embarrassing spider veins. Administration of the treatment is via injection of a sclerosing agent directly into the spider veins. This agent causes irritation to the walls of the vessel resulting in a sclerosed or non functioning vein.  During the healing process, blood stops flowing through the vein and thus the vein is invisible or much less apparent.  There are many different sclerosing agents available for use. At Anti Aging & Functional Medicine, we use Glycerin which is less painful and has fewer side effects.

Chelation therapy, commonly known as IV Chelation, has long been revered as the gold standard in addressing heavy metal exposure and toxicity that plagues our modern world. Its efficacy and safety have saved countless lives while alleviating the debilitating consequences of overexposure to toxic metals. This groundbreaking treatment entails a specialized intravenous infusion wherein patients receive a meticulously crafted solution comprising various minerals and vitamins essential for restoring health. However, at the core of this amalgam lies an extraordinary amino acid known as EDTA. Its pivotal role cannot be understated. By harnessing the chelating properties of EDTA, it forms stable complexes with heavy metals present in the body, aiding their removal through excretion mechanisms. As a result, chelation therapy represents an innovative approach that harmonizes science and medicine to mitigate the immense burden imposed by heavy metal toxicity on individuals’ well-being.
