Why is it significant that the FDA approved Sculptra for cosmetic use? What is it & why is it different from a filler?
The good news is that the FDA has now given Sculptra it’s official stamp of approval for cosmetic use based on solid, consistent evidence that it works cosmetically and effectively! Sculptra has been used for the correction of wrinkles and facial aging for years with an FDA approval pending.
This is a long lasting treatment that offers reliable facial volume for flat, deflated cheeks that can lead to a “jowl-y appearance” of the lower face. By using Sculptra in […]
Question: Can Time, Patience and a little Sculptra™ help fight the inevitable signs of aging?
Answer: We want to fight the aging process with steadfast perseverance but, at the same time, we must be patient in our expectations for results.

Sculptra is a long lasting treatment that offers reliable facial volume to hollow cheeks for up to 2 years.
Generally, patients are treated in 1 […]

Have you heard of the cosmetic surgery tax which was part of the recent Senate Health Reform bill?
At the 11th hour, a cosmetic surgery tax provision was slipped in the Senate Health Reform bill. The proposal asks for the consumer who undergoes an elective cosmetic procedure, to pay a 5 % tax to the government for any procedure like Botox, Fillers, Breast Augmentations and Lifts, Tummy Tucks, Facelifts and Body Contouring. However, the bill states that even insurance covered procedures may be taxed! Will our senators and representatives also tax breast reconstruction and the opposite breast for procedures that help […]
Your voices were heard by the Senate. “Botax” the proposed tax on cosmetic procedures was dropped from the Senate health reform legislation… Thousands of citizens, like you, strongly objected to the Botax which as we all know would have been highly discriminatory (primarily aimed at the female population since 86% of all procedures are requested by women, and 91% are working women). Without your help, there would not have been enough opposition to make a difference.
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU !!!

Question: With all the options for Facial Soft tissue fillers available, why should I choose Restylane® or Perlane®?
Answer: Restylane® continues to be the #1 dermal filler in the world. Restylane® is a safe skin filler made with hyaluronic acid (HA) that is used to fill the aging lines of the face. Perlane® is a similar filler but because of it ‘s larger particle size, it is used for deep lines of the face. Both Restylane and Perlane are FDA approved for the treatment of moderate to deep facial wrinkles such as the nasolabial folds that are commonly found around the […]
Question: Why does Dr. Casas recommend injecting Sculptra ® Aesthetic in conjunction with topical Retin-A daily to restore a more youthful appearing face?
Does using topical Retin-A enhance the result of Sculptra® Aesthetic?
Reply: The combination of a Sculptra® Aesthetic treatment with consistent use of topical Retin-A continues to fascinate me. I completed a 106 patient study on the synergy of these two very effective treatments and found that their use in combination can be powerfully effective. Sculptra® Aesthetic is injected just below the skin and then proceeds to stimulate the growth of one’s own collagen through an inflammatory process. The Retin-A […]
Question: If I want to look my best for my wedding, (I am in my mid 30’s) who should I consult?
Answer: First you should consult with someone like me, a Board certified Plastic Surgeon who will honestly review your options for helping to make your dreams become a reality. Brides want to look their best for many reasons. It is a very special day and most brides are photographed quite a bit. I always recommend a good skincare program but especially before the wedding, it is a good idea to ‘step it up’ with professional exfoliation like a Blue Peel […]
