Non-Surgical

Minimally invasive options:

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Treatment

Botox is one of the best, and most direct, solutions for treating pain associated with the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ).

Unlike night-guards, which primarily protect the surface integrity of your teeth, Dr. Damico utilizes Botox to target the responsible muscle group directly. As a result, patients will receive relief from the involuntary muscle spasm cycle associated with TMJ disorder.

This treatment is quick, at around 15 minutes or less, and easy, thanks to the minimal number of injection sites required and Dr. Damico’s decades of medical knowledge.

If you suffer from headaches, jaw pain, and dental issues, caused by involuntary jaw clenching and/or teeth grinding, then you are an ideal candidate for this treatment!

TMJ Treatment

TMJ treatment is one of the least invasive Botox® procedures offered at Skin Care Fort Worth. Dr. Damico uses a combination of ice, numbing gel, and a very small needle to ensure that patients hardly feel a thing. Most people report only feeling a small “pinch”.

In addition to the amazing medical benefits this treatment offers, it’s also a great way to experience a low-stress Botox® procedure!

While the final cost can vary somewhat, based on the volume of Botox® needed, the average treatment cost is $440 at Skin Care Fort Worth.

Patients can expect to enjoy relief that lasts up to 6-8 months long. Additionally, some people may find that their habit of jaw clenching never returns!

Non-Surgical Nose Job

Rhinoplasty (altering your nose) is one of the most highly sought-after treatments in the cosmetic medicine world.

In a matter of minutes, a “liquid nose job” by Dr. Damico could give your nose a new appearance with injectable fillers instead of invasive surgery.

The procedure itself takes under 30 minutes, and patients love that they can see the results immediately. There might be some slight bruising after a non-surgical nose job, but typically there is little to no downtime.

A non-surgical nose job, or liquid rhinoplasty, uses hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvéderm® to almost instantly transform your nose. Dr. Damico takes a full-face approach to achieve natural-looking results and aesthetic harmony. The right nose for you should be all about you!

Results can last between nine months and two years. Additionally, results are reversible. If you don’t like what you see after a non-surgical nose job, Dr. Damico could use a dissolving substance called hyaluronidase that can give you back your pre-procedure nose within 48 hours. For many, that’s a big advantage compared to surgery’s permanent changes.

However, sometimes fillers just won’t be able to give you the results you want. If Dr. Damico believes you are not a candidate for a liquid nose job, he will be happy to suggest a plastic surgeon in the Fort Worth area who will help you achieve the look you want! (Surgical rhinoplasties are not provided by Dr. Damico at Skin Care Fort Worth.)

For those looking to correct any nasal obstruction or chronic breathing problems, non-surgical nose jobs don’t improve those issues. The procedure is solely cosmetic.

Dr. Damico offers his signature non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure for $995. You may receive a “trial” treatment using saline instead of filler for $150. If you decide to move forward with a full treatment, the $150 will act as a deposit toward your full treatment cost.

Doctors agree that non-surgical nose jobs work best to correct minor cosmetic imperfections. Even though you are technically adding volume to the nose with filler, the nose actually appears smaller in many cases.

Adding filler to the tip of the nose can change your nasal tip symmetry, projection, rotation and shape. Dr. Damico can also use filler in the nostril rims to bring them downward. A liquid rhinoplasty can also even out irregularities along the nasal bridge, make the nose appear straighter, raise the nasal bridge, or conceal a dorsal hump.

Please be advised that people who have had previous injuries (broken nose) or facial reconstructive surgeries (including previous surgical rhinoplasty) carry a much greater-than-usual risk for complications from a liquid nose job treatment.

Awesome, we can’t wait to see you! Please note that consultations are required before we can schedule your treatment time with Dr. Damico. You can schedule your complimentary consultation here. Or, you can call (817)738-9268.

After you and Dr. Damico agree that the liquid nose job is the best option for you, we can put you on the schedule for your treatment time. Unfortunately, due to our scheduling protocols, we cannot schedule a consultation and treatment for the same day.

In the event that this treatment is not right for you, we can recommend a surgical consultation with a trusted plastic surgeon. 

Liquid Face Lift

A lift can do wonders for your face, but not everyone wants to go under the knife to get that refreshed look. People who want to restore their naturally youthful looks but also want to avoid the risks of surgery can choose to have a “liquid facelift” instead.

The complete package

A liquid facelift is what Dr. Damico calls “the complete package.” It’s not a single procedure, but instead is just a way for us to refer to a completely customized combination of several procedures that are intended to bring back your natural-looking, youthful appearance.

A liquid facelift may involve any number of available treatments, including Botox® and facial fillers. Botox® targets the muscles that create some of the wrinkles and fine lines on your face. Dermal fillers are used for filling in deeper lines or restoring lost volume. Juvéderm®, Voluma®, and Radiesse® are all considered dermal fillers, each with a specific place and reason Dr. Damico prefers to use them.

Dr. Damico always takes an artistic and wholistic approach. For that reason, the services we have available at Skin Care Fort Worth work in tandem to address your face as a whole, not just one area at a time!

At Skin Care Fort Worth, there are two typical approaches to a liquid facelift:

One approach is to address all concerns at a consult and receive treatment for everything at one appointment. This way, you will have immediate results following your treatment appointment. An appointment like this can last a few hours. While Dr. Damico certainly offers this option, we find that many patients prefer spreading the treatments out over a few appointment times.

The other option, then, is to achieve the lift over a period of time. Over the course of your treatment sessions, Dr. Damico will address your face in three different sections- top, middle, and lower face. Results from each individual session will still be immediate, but your overall look will take longer to achieve.

A few of the treatments that Dr. Damico offers, such as the liquid facelift, are so heavily based on each individual person’s needs that there is no way to know how much your treatment will cost unless you come to our office to have a consultation with us. This being said, a liquid facelift will typically involve around four different products to achieve a complete correction. Dr. Damico will discuss a completely customized plan for you which may cost anywhere from $2000-$6000 on average.

You may be shocked to learn this, and you might be wondering why you might invest this amount of money in a treatment plan that isn’t as permanent as a surgical face lift. Many people choose to have a liquid facelift instead of a surgical procedure because they don’t have time to recover from a surgery, although they plan on doing it someday. Others may feel that their concerns don’t warrant surgical intervention but would still like to look refreshed.

We recognize that having any aesthetic procedure is a completely personal decision. Dr. Damico is known for his honesty and will be the first to tell you if he believes surgery is your best option. 

Choosing a properly trained doctor to perform any aesthetic procedure will reduce the risk of side effects. You can ask any questions about your liquid facelift with Dr. Damico during your consultation or appointment. Some possible side effects include swelling, redness, bruising, and similar conditions common to injection sites. However, this is not a complete list of possible side effects.

Important Safety Considerations and Information Regarding Dermal Fillers

The best way to avoid complications from a dermal filler treatment is to go to an experienced and certified cosmetic injector. Dr. Damico, who has provided cosmetic treatments in Fort Worth for over 15 years, takes the risks and complications of filler treatments seriously. In some cases, he may reserve the right to deny treatment if he believes the risk for any given procedure is too high.

Contraindications for treatment with dermal fillers:

Patients who are using medications that can prolong bleeding, such as aspirin, warfarin, or certain vitamins and supplements, may experience increased bruising or bleeding at the injection site. You may wish to discuss current medications with your personal doctor before receiving treatment if you are on any of these medications.

The safety of dermal fillers for use during pregnancy or in breastfeeding people has not been established. Dr. Damico does not provide any injectable aesthetic treatments to breastfeeding or pregnant people.

Possible side effects:

Possible risks of treatment with dermal filler include bruising, redness, swelling, itching, and pain. Any foreign material injected into the body creates a possibility of swelling or other local reactions. These symptoms are usually mild and last less than a week but can last longer.

You may be able to feel the fillers in the area where you were injected, and there is a risk that small lumps may form under your skin due to fillers collecting in one area. Dermal fillers, as with any filler material, may move from the place where it was injected.

The above list is not meant to be inclusive of all possible risks associated with hyaluronic acid fillers or dermal fillers in general, as there are both known and unknown side effects and complications associated with any hyaluronic acid fillers or dermal filler injection procedures. We make every effort to avoid complications. Anyone experiencing any adverse side effects is advised to call us immediately (24hrs day/7 days wk) at 817-738-9268.
