Nonsurgical treatments involve neurotoxins (botulinum toxins), fillers and fat injections that can be used for wrinkle and fold eradication and volume enhancement. Laser skin resurfacing or other light modalities may also be utilized to improve the skin texture and correct age spots or skin blemishes.
