Wrinkles

A wrinkle is a fold or crease in the skin. Skin wrinkles typically result from age, genetic predisposition and most importantly sun damage. Smoking, dry skin, excessive motion, poor hydration, and several other factors may contribute. Although there are numerous topical options on the market, few have any significant efficacy compared to procedural means. Contrary to popular belief, a facelift does not treat wrinkles, only loose skin. There are several dermatologic treatments using injectables and laser treatments to dramatically improve their appearance.

Treatments for Wrinkles and Fine Lines at PFRANKMD

The Miria represents the future of non-ablative laser skin tightening for scars, fine lines, and wrinkles. It introduces a new approach to non-ablative fractional resurfacing.

Fillers such as Silicone, Radiesse, Juvéderm, Restylane, Sculptra, and Perlane are used to lift an indentation that wrinkles cause. Fillers can also be used to lift the skin for a facelift type effect. Done non-invasively this is called a filler facelift or FLT procedure. 

Botox and Dysport are FDA-approved muscle relaxers that address wrinkles associated with motion.

For a few decades now, lasers have been used to resurface wrinkles on the face and body. Currently, the state of the art technology is Fractional Skin Resurfacing.

Ellacor is the first device of its kind to non-surgically remove wrinkles while lifting and tightening skin. By utilizing rapidly automated fine needle extractions of skin throughout the area of treatment, the device removes eight percent of skin per session under local anesthesia.

The EMFACE Under Eye applicators are a revolutionary treatment that leverages high-intensity muscle stimulation and radiofrequency energy to tighten, lift, and smooth the under-eye region.

NOTHING tightens skin, improves fine lines, treats sun damage, and smoothens texture better than fractional Co2 laser resurfacing with the Fraxel Re:pair. With just 7-10 days of social downtime, it takes decades off the skin. Optimal results can be seen after three months of treatment.

The Fraxel Re:pair is still the gold standard of laser treatments, and requires the skills and judgment of an expert surgeon under twilight anesthesia.

Aging gracefully, one spot at a time!

Did you know that our hands are often the first to reveal the signs of aging and sun damage?
We believe in preserving the natural beauty of your hands, and that’s why we’re excited to share this incredible transformation with you.

This remarkable transformation showcases the synergy of Fraxel and Pico treatments, a combination treatment designed with precision to address specific concerns.
Fraxel targets background sun damage, evens out skin tone, and stimulates collagen production. This not only enhances aesthetics but also provides long-term skin health benefits for a smoother, more youthful appearance. 

The Pico laser targets individual sun spots, leaving your hands looking brighter and more radiant.

The hands are often an ignored part of the body and one of the first areas to show a person’s age as they lose volume. 

We naturally lose collagen, elastin, and fat under the skin which creates a skeletal appearance. The hands are also among the most exposed areas of the body, making them especially prone to sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and texture changes.

To treat aging hands, we use fillers to restore volume and lasers to improve sunspots and discoloration or a combination of both. Immediately after filler placement, tendons and veins are camouflaged and results can last up to one year. Fraxel is used to stimulate collagen and smooth texture, while targeted lasers remove pigmentation and reverse UV damage.

Hand rejuvenation requires a global, multi-layer approach. Combining resurfacing, volume restoration, and pigment correction offers long-term improvement in tone, texture, and structural support. Treatments are minimally invasive with minimal downtime and deliver significant aesthetic enhancement.

This video gives a behind-the-scenes look at an advanced combination treatment performed on the pro-aging legend himself, Dr. Frank. He received CO2 resurfacing around the eyes, Fraxel Thulium to the face and arms, and Ellacor to the lower face. Each technology targets different layers of the skin to lift, tighten, resurface, and rejuvenate for long-term pro-aging results.

At the end, we’re sharing his real, unfiltered healing progression from Day 1 to Day 5 so you can see the expected downtime and how quickly the skin moves through early recovery. Most patients return to functional daily activities within about 4 days, with full recovery typically occurring within 7 to 10 days.

The art of injectables is not about looking different. It’s about elevating your appearance with expert technique and subtle, strategic placement. At PFRANKMD, we specialize in undetectable injectables that refresh without revealing you’ve had anything done.
At PFRANKMD, we treat faces, not features. It’s never about the one area you point to in the mirror. It’s about how everything works together.

People often ask where I prioritize injectable treatments on the face, and my answer is always the same: everywhere. I don’t treat isolated regions like lips, eyes, cheekbones, chins, or earlobes. I take a global, full-face approach that creates harmony, balance, and longevity.

Small amounts placed strategically in multiple areas and frequent minor touch-ups remain the core of my philosophy. This is how we achieve undetectable injectables, not the overdone, filled, or hollowed look people fear.

There are plenty of misconceptions about dermal fillers, most of them driven by fear rather than fact. The reality is straightforward. Fillers are not the issue. Technique is. The safety, artistry, and outcome depend entirely on the hands, training, and judgment of the provider you choose.

Used correctly, fillers are one of the most effective tools for restoring youthful contours, supporting natural facial structure, and refreshing the face without altering it. Not all fillers are the same, and not every face needs the same approach. The key is matching the right product to the right indication and delivering it with precision, restraint, and a deep understanding of anatomy.

Concerns about looking overfilled or about the permanence of fillers usually come from experiences with inexperienced injectors or outdated methods, not from the products themselves. When done properly, fillers offer safe, subtle, and customizable results that enhance your natural features rather than change them.

My approach is simple. Enhance, do not inflate. Guide aging gracefully. Help patients look like themselves at their best.

Nurse Jen discusses the benefits of Fraxel laser treatment specifically for sun damage on the arms, detailing how this advanced skin resurfacing procedure targets pigmentation issues such as discoloration caused by UV exposure, promotes collagen production for skin repair, and plays a role in reducing the risk of developing non-melanoma skin cancers by improving skin integrity. 

She demonstrates the visible differences between sun-exposed skin and protected areas on the body using close-up images, and explains the typical healing timelines for various body parts, including the face, arms, and shoulders, emphasizing factors that influence recovery such as skin type and treatment intensity.
