Special events like anniversaries, reunions, and weddings are milestones in life. Now attendees can look their best with a few injections and zaps of a laser.

Botox Cosmetic, fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm, and laser treatments prescribed in unique combinations to address the needs of the patient reduce wrinkles, diminish facial veins, and reduce sun spots. Liposuction of the neck, a relatively minimally invasive technique, can be performed as well in some cases for dramatic rejuvenation. "We know from experience and scientific study that these techniques offer dramatic improvement and can be performed together or in close proximity to each other," says Dr. Lawrence Osman, a cosmetic dermatologist in Los Angeles, California. "For example, laser treatments of the face can be given immediately after the injection of fillers to soften smile lines". Dr. Osman offers combinations of these treatments in various "special event" packages.

According to Dr. Osman, minor procedures prior to special events are common. S.W. had liposuction of her neck to prepare for her upcoming nuptials. P.T., the mother of a bride-to-be, had fillers to augment her cheekbones and soften her smile lines, and Botox Cosmetic to lessen her frown. J.L. rejuvenated with Botox and fillers before traveling across the country for her 40th high school reunion. "I haven't seen these people in a long time. I want to look my best, but I don't want to do anything too dramatic," asserts J.L. Special event treatments allow people to look refreshed and rejuvenated without looking altered.

Botox Cosmetic is a medication FDA approved to reduce the appearance of frown lines and is often used off-label to soften wrinkles elsewhere on the face. Restylane and Juvederm are filling agents that lessen the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles. Many different types of lasers exist that diminish wrinkles and improve the complexion. Laser specialists use their experience and skill to choose the best treatments for their patients.
