Nonsurgical Aesthetic Services
While many people benefit from facial plastic surgery to achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance, some may prefer less invasive procedures that yield more subtle yet effective results. Nonsurgical plastic surgery alternatives can not only fill in lines and wrinkles but also rejuvenate your complexion and address a variety of skin conditions to give you a smoother, healthier look.
At The University of Kansas Health System, we offer a range of minimally invasive aesthetic enhancement procedures that can revitalize your appearance. Our appointments are quick, discrete and require little to no downtime.
Nonsurgical aesthetic services overview
For some individuals, plastic surgery procedures such as a facelift are not necessary to achieve their appearance goals. In these cases, minimally invasive rejuvenation treatments can help. Large pores, wrinkles and age spots are just a few of the appearance concerns that can be improved without cosmetic surgery. Nonsurgical med spa treatments are minimally invasive and most require very little downtime.
Nearly anyone can be a good candidate for nonsurgical med spa treatments. However, it’s important to be realistic about the results that can be achieved without surgery. While most people can see significant improvement with the help of med spa services, these treatments can’t help with structural concerns such as sagging jowls or a nose that feels too large for your face. Our skilled team will recommend the best options to help you achieve your ideal outcome.
We offer a variety of appointment types. Learn more or call 913-588-1227 to schedule now.
Your nonsurgical aesthetic services options
We offer a range of nonsurgical plastic surgery alternatives that can help you refresh your appearance:
-
BBL photorejuvenation
For those seeking a more even complexion, a BBL photofacial uses broadband light therapy to treat sun damage as well as rosacea. Photorejuvenation is also suitable for treating age spots and sun damage on the neck, chest, arms and hands. -
BOTOX® Cosmetic
One of the most popular aesthetic enhancement procedures available, BOTOX® injections reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the face. This quick procedure delivers rapid results and can be performed over your lunch hour. -
Chemical peels
Chemical peels can improve the skin’s appearance by removing the damaged outer skin layers. Beneath your old layers of skin are new layers with fewer wrinkles and a healthy, youthful glow. During treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin that causes the skin to separate and peel off, revealing the underlying, undamaged layers of skin and stimulating the healing process, which produces collagen. -
Fat grafting
Fat grafting uses your own fat cells to restore fullness and volume in the lips, cheeks or other areas of the face. A natural alternative to synthetic injectable fillers, micro fat grafting can be used to augment lips, smooth away laugh lines and even minimize acne scars. -
Injectable fillers
Injectable dermal fillers can help fill in lines and creases, temporarily restoring a smoother, more youthful-looking appearance. When injected beneath the skin, these fillers can also plump up creased and sunken areas of the face. Wrinkle filler injections are a quick, short-term solution to minimize the appearance of aging.

KYBELLA®
Excess fat beneath the chin can be removed with KYBELLA®. This FDA-approved, non-surgical injectable treatment can reduce the appearance of a double chin by breaking down and eliminating accumulated fat cells. -
Laser skin resurfacing
Laser resurfacing is an increasingly popular skin rejuvenation procedure that works to improve the appearance of facial skin by resurfacing wrinkles, fine lines and minor scars. Like other skin resurfacing techniques, laser skin resurfacing encourages the growth of new, vibrant skin by removing the outermost layers. -
Medical-grade skin care
A quality skincare regimen enhances your skin’s appearance by treating signs of aging, environmental effects and acne scarring. Our team can design a personalized care plan for you that combines in-office, pharmaceutical-grade products with powerful at-home treatments. -
Permanent makeup
Permanent makeup is an advanced cosmetic technique in which the skin is tattooed to give the appearance of subtle makeup. Also known as micropigmentation, permanent makeup can mask scars, camouflage skin discoloration and even restore the areola after breast reconstruction, among other applications. -
SkinPen / microneedling
Microneedling stimulates the skin’s natural ability to produce new collagen and elastin for healthier, younger-looking skin. This minimally invasive procedure can reverse years of sun damage, improve acne scars and enhance the overall appearance of aging skin.
