Different areas. Carefully chosen treatments.
Explore two distinct treatment conversations at Mao Facial Plastic Surgery: lip contour and volume, and age-related changes in the appearance of the hands.

Full and vivacious lips have always been recognized as an aesthetically important feature. Some of us, however, are born with thin, ill-defined lips, or our lips lose their fullness with age. But the appearance of our lips is now within our control. Fine lines and wrinkles, thin lips and a drooping corner of the mouth are all areas that can be aided with injectable fillers. The market is ever changing, with new products appearing rapidly. Care is individualized to provide safe and effective treatment.
The outcome is typically immediately visible, although swelling may occur for several days following the injection. Normal daily activities can be resumed immediately afterward, with no downtime necessary. Complications are uncommon, but be sure to discuss any potential risks for the specific filler you will be receiving with your doctor prior to the procedure.*


The skin of the hand is first injected with a biocompatible filler that stimulates collagen production and thickens the skin, making tendons and veins less visible. Desired results can usually be achieved after a series of two to three treatments spaced six weeks apart. Laser treatments work with the filler to improve the texture of the skin while also removing sun spots and other unwanted blemishes. A series of four laser treatments spaced a month apart can help patients see significant results.*
Injectable fillers can be used to enhance lip volume and definition in an outpatient appointment. Effects are temporary, and additional treatment may be discussed to maintain the result.
With age, thinning skin and volume loss can make tendons and veins more visible. The practice describes combining filler and laser treatments to address hand volume and skin texture.
Individual results and recovery vary. Your consultation provides guidance specific to your needs.
