Getting older doesn’t necessarily mean you need to look your age or go through extensive surgery to achieve a younger appearance. Healthy and smooth looking skin is possible for everyone.
Galderma, a global leader in skincare, has created several products which are key to retaining effortless-looking beauty. Two of their most successful products to date include Dysport and Restylane.
Our founder, Lori Bizzoco found out first hand when she visited Brian D. Cohen, M.D., a board-certified plastic surgeon with offices in Great Neck and Manhattan. First, she was given Dysport which was injected in her forehead, around her eyes, and on her glabellar lines.
“I have very strong muscles in my face, and there is one stubborn line on my forehead that never seems to go away or soften with make-up or creams,” she said. “I wasn’t sure if Dysport would really do the trick, but after only a few days, my line has completely faded away.”
Dysport is an FDA-approved prescription injection for the treatment of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. The great news is that with Dysport, it’s the frown lines between the eyebrows that are minimized, not your expressions. It is a good choice for anyone under 65 who wants to give their skin a little rejuvenation.

In addition to treating the lines around her forehead, Bizocco also opted for a lip plumping procedure using Restylane Silk.  “I have extremely thin lips,” she said. “But, I was always nervous to use a filler because I didn’t want them to look overdone.”
Restylane® can be used to add volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth. Restylane offers five different product options all given in the form of injection including, Restylane Silk, Restylane Lyft, Restylane, Restylane Refyne, and Restylane Defyne. Each treatment is suited for any healthy person over 21 who wants to improve their skin quality.

“The injection to my lips did hurt a little more than I expected and there was some bruising and swelling for a couple of days,” she admitted. “However, the end result was worth it because my lips look fuller and lipstick goes on much smoother.”
Thanks to Dr. Cohen and his staff, our founder’s concerns were alleviated because the team took their time explaining the procedures thoroughly. The best part was that Dr. Cohen reassured her that she would walk out of the office with natural-looking results!
“Nothing was overdone or noticeable,” she said. “In fact, I was able to go back to my normal day the minute I walked out the door.”
