Botox Lip Flip

Are you suffering from No Upper Lip Syndrome? A lot of women have this problem – their upper lip curls in when they smile, making it disappear. A quick and simple way to fix this problem is a few units of Botox in the muscles above the upper lip!

Using botox above the upper lip helps relax the muscles, which prevents the upper lip from curling in while smiling! This is a great way to balance your smile and look a bit poutier while looking natural.

Because you move your mouth so much every day (between talking, singing, eating, etc), the botox wears off a little faster than it typically does in other parts of the face. The botox lip flip lasts around 2-3 months on average before you have to come back for a touch-up!

Sculptra Butt Lift

Sculptra butt injections have become one of Dr. Kay’s most popular procedures! Dr. Kay is one of a select few physicians in the Pasadena (and Southern California) area who are practicing Sculptra butt enhancements.

Sculptra is not a filler – it’s a biostimulator, meaning that it stimulates your body to grow its own collagen. This is what leads to the increase in volume and projection of your butt. Sculptra improves the overall size and volume of your butt! Sculptra can also be used to fill in dimpling caused by cellulite in order to create a smooth, flawless behind.

Unlike surgery, Sculptra butt injections require NO downtime. Patients are free to work, travel, exercise, etc. after receiving these injections. Additionally, Dr. Kay uses a strong numbing cream during the procedure to prevent pain and guarantee the patient’s comfort during the injection. Most patients say they feel “a few small pinches” if they feel anything at all!

Kybella Fat Melting

Kybella® – The Fat Melting Enzyme

Do you have stubborn fat that won’t go away no matter how much you work out? Kybella can now permanently melt that fat so you never have to worry about it again. Kybella has been specially formulated to target submental fat (also known as a “double chin”) and melt it away!

The active ingredient in KYBELLA® is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat.

Kybella fat melting enzyme is perfect for double chin and other stubborn fat areas
When injected into the fat beneath the chin, KYBELLA® destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desired aesthetic goal.

Since everyone’s chin profile is different, the number of treatments varies from patient to patient. Dr. Kay will help determine how many treatment sessions you need based on the amount and distribution of your submental fat and your personal treatment goals. Each KYBELLA® treatment session is given at least 1 month apart, and you should not receive more than 6 treatments.

Kybella® – For The Body

Although Kybella was originally created to target the double chin fat, advanced injectors such as Dr. Kay have started using the fat-melting shot to slim down other parts of the body. Areas such as bra fat, back fat, pubic fat, inner thigh fat, and more have been slimmed down in Dr. Kay’s office using Kybella!If there’s a pesky area of fat that’s bothering you, don’t suffer – come visit Dr. Kay to melt it permanently with Kybella!

The following are specific areas that Dr. Kay can inject:

Submental (under the chin/double chin)
Bra Fat Roll / Armpit Fat
Stomach
Banana Roll (area beneath the buttock)

Cheek/Jawline Sculpting

Cheek Definition With Injectable Filler

Do you need some more angles to put your highlight on? Cheek filler is the perfect way to lift the face and create definition. The face loses volume as we age, but filler is our secret hack to fill in lost volume and collagen. Lots of patients come in with the problem of heaviness around their mouth and they think they need filler in their smile lines, but they really need a mini lift with cheek filler!

Dr. Kay typically uses Radiesse to sculpt and define the cheeks. Radiesse is a calcium-based filler that mimics your cheekbone and adds the perfect amount of volume! Other options for cheek filler are Voluma or Restylane Lyft, which are both great for lifting and sculpting. All cheek fillers last 12+ months, and you will probably return for a touch up around 9 months!

Jawline Sculpting

A strong jaw is a great way to balance and frame the face. Jawline filler is perfect to provide a cool, sculpted look and help you get every model’s angles that you’ve ever wanted! Jawline filler is also great to pull back on any sagging in the lower face and help you stay looking youthful as you age.

Dr. Kay’s filler of choice for the jawline is Radiesse, which is a strong filler perfect for providing a definition. Another option for jawline filler is Restylane Lyft!

Injectable Rhinoplasty

PRP Hair Therapy

Plasma Rich Platelet Therapy

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy is a great solution for those with thinning hair or hair loss. When you visit our office, we first start by drawing your blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate your plasma, also known as “liquid gold”.

With a thin needle, your own Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is injected into the scalp. Then the growth factors in your blood cells do their job leading to naturally stimulating hair growth.

The PRP Hair Restoration procedure by Dr. Kay Durairaj is suitable for both men and women. It is a state of the art, non-surgical, totally natural, alternative medical procedure used for the treatment of hair loss or hair thinning.

Our blood plasma (PRP) contains active growth factors which can promote hair growth. Helping to restore one’s confidence, the end result is a fuller, healthier head of hair.

The cost of PRP hair treatment may be considerable, as more sessions may be needed to obtain the desired result. PRP is also used in conjunction with some hair transplant procedures. Call our office for more information about treatment plans and pricing.

PRP HAIR RESTORATION RESULTS

On average, hair grows back stronger and more luminous and in the event of the presence of prematurely white hair, re-pigmentation often occurs.
Various results are achieved depending on the advancement and severity of the Androgenetic Alopecia. The sooner the treatment is performed, the greater the possibility of stimulation of hair re-growth.
To boost results, in cases of more severe thinning, it is recommended to repeat the procedure after approx. 1.5 months.

ThermiSmooth

ThermiSmooth Face and Body incorporates non-invasive cutting edge radio-frequency technology to help smooth and tighten the skin. This device safely heats treatment areas using radio-frequency energy to penetrates the sub-dermal and inner layer of skin directly. This procedure is painless and requires zero downtime.

How It Works:

To prepare your skin for Thermi a small amount of gel is first applied to the area of skin’s surface in the treatment area. Once this occurs, a temperature is selected and the hand piece continuously glides across treatment areas for maximum efficacy. The temperature of the device will be adjusted based on the patient’s skin and response. Each ThermiSmooth treatment lasts about 45 minutes.

Men's Eyelid Surgery

Blepharoplasty, which is commonly known as eyelid surgery, can rejuvenate puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes by removing excess fat, skin, and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. It may be performed for cosmetic reasons or to improve sight by lifting droopy eyelids out of the patient’s field of vision. Blepharoplasty can be combined with BOTOX® treatments to raise the eyebrows or reduce the appearance of wrinkles, crow’s feet or dark circles under the eyes.

This procedure is usually in one of our outpatient surgery centers. Incisions are made along the eyelids in inconspicuous places (in the creases of the upper lids, and just below the lashes on the lower lids). Dr. Kay will remove excess tissue through these incisions and then stitches them closed with fine sutures. In the case that no skin needs to be removed, Dr. Kay will likely perform a transconjunctival blepharoplasty, where the incision is made inside the lower eyelid and there are no visible scars. Stitches are removed after three or four days, and patients can resume wearing contact lenses after a few weeks.

PRP Hair Therapy

With a thin needle, your own Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is injected into the scalp. Then the growth factors in your blood cells do their job leading to naturally stimulating hair growth.

Our blood plasma (PRP) contains active growth factors which can promote hair growth. Helping to restore one’s confidence, the end result is a fuller, healthier head of hair.
