TUTELA PLASTIC SURGERY

Whether its cosmetic or reconstructive procedures, celebrity plastic surgeon, Dr. John Paul Tutela is an expert when it comes to facial rejuvenation. As we come off the heels of winter and head into spring, now it's the perfect time for his three pronged approach for a spring refresher. "Now that we are in spring, we are heading to peel season where you can be more aggressive with your skincare to shed the dead skin of winter. It is important to be careful with peels and retinols as you start getting more sun exposure to avoid irritation. My three pronged approach can rejuvenate your face to get every part of it in order" says Dr. Tutela.

The first part is aggressive skincare such with a retinol base. The next step is to use fillers that target areas with volume loss which cast shadows on different areas of your face such as your nasolabial folds or under your eyes in the tear trough. This is followed by injecting neurotoxins such as Botox into your forehead, sides of your eyes or in between your eyebrows which blunts the power of the muscles and keeps your wrinkles from getting worse. By keeping your facial muscles from moving too dramatically it keeps the wrinkles on your face from getting worse, and even fades the wrinkles that you already have."
