Alternatives to Cosmetic Surgery in Mobile
Dr. Proffitt specializes in cosmetic plastic surgery, but also offers a wide array of non-surgical treatments. Designed to provide satisfying results in a shorter amount of time than surgery, non-surgical treatments can focus on many skin imperfections and age-related cosmetic concerns.
Injectables for Wrinkle Reduction
Injectable treatments like Botox or fillers like Juvéderm greatly diminish lines and wrinkles on the face for a smoother appearance.
In the case of Botox, fine lines can develop on areas of the face like between the brows or in the form of crow’s feet by the eyes. The Botox solution is comprised of a form of botulinum toxin, which works to inhibit muscle movement.
Botox also has several widely recognized therapeutic uses including controlling excessive sweating and providing relief from headaches.
Juvéderm also works on wrinkles and depression in the face, but in a different way. Rather than limiting the movement of the muscle, these injectable fillers are injected into lines on the face. There, they provide youthful volume and add to a more smooth appearance.
Additionally, these injectables can be used for other facial contouring procedures and are often a part of lip augmentation, giving fullness to thin lips.
Juvéderm is comprised of hyaluronic acid, similar to the same component present in your skin. This hyaluronic acid provides necessary hydration to your skin, supporting a more youthful volume and structure.
Dr. Proffitt does not use Radiesse and Restylane but prefers to use Juvéderm as Juvéderm has been shown to have more lasting effects.
Treatments to Diminish Common Skin Issues
Chemical peels, microdermabrasion, dermabrasion, and laser skin resurfacing treatments also work to reduce signs of aging. By removing dead, dull outer layers of skin, a more smooth and vibrant looking face is possible. Additionally, they can correct common skin ailments such as:
- some scarring
- age spots
- uneven skin tone and texture
- blemishes
- hyperpigmentation
Chemical peels are a solution that is applied to the face in Dr. Proffitt’s Mobile plastic surgery practice. It works over a short period of time to remove dead skin cells.
Laser skin resurfacing incorporates tools and techniques that slough off these skin cells more directly.
Any of these treatments can be applied to correct skin issues on the face, neck, and chest. Some patients may also undergo treatments for the hands, often to remove signs of aging like age spots.

I would highly recommend Dr. Randy Proffitt to anyone who is seeking to have this done. They are an awesome professional staff. The Consultation is very in-debt. He lets you know how things will go from start to finish. No hidden info or fees, surgery date and time on point. I felt very comfortable with him and his staff & the staff @ Providence Hospital who assisted also me. I really can’t say enough about him & his staff. All of my follow-up visits were very informative & less than 30 mins. I will give them 10 (????) thumbs up. Look him up, call him, you won’t go wrong.
Veins Treatment
Those who struggle with visible spider veins on the legs may undergo sclerotherapy. This injection-based treatment causes veins to collapse and disappear from view. While sclerotherapy does not guarantee that new veins cannot appear elsewhere, any veins treated with sclerotherapy should no longer be visible.
Fat Injections For Filling Deep Wrinkles And Lip Augmentation
Using your own fat as filler for wrinkles has become an increasingly more popular procedure and is used commonly instead of Botox or Juvéderm. Many people decide to use fat to restore lost volume to many parts of their body including the lips, cheeks, and even the back of their hands. During the procedure, fat is taken from the patient’s buttocks, abdomen, or thighs, purified, and injected directly into the area to be filled. Both the donor and recipient sites are numbed before the fat is harvested and injected. Fat injections often have a more lasting result when contrasted with Botox or Juvéderm. Before your procedure, Dr. Proffitt and his staff will go over the best options available to you to get the results that you want.

Lip Augmentation With Fat Transfer
For patients who want fuller lips, augmentation with fat transfer is a fantastic alternative to fillers. Lip augmentation with fat transfer utilizes your body’s own tissue to help you get that soft, natural look that you desire. Lip augmentation with fat transfer involves taking fat from one area of your body, such as the buttocks, hips, abdomen, or thighs, purifying it, and injecting it into your lips. Both the donor and recipient sites are numbed before the fat is harvested and injected. Fat injections often last longer than traditional fillers.

Juvéderm For Lip Augmentation
Juvéderm is a great way to get the youthful look you want with minimum downtime. Juvéderm is used to take care of skin imperfections such as wrinkles, and deep folds, lip enhancement and improve facial features. Dr. Proffitt uses Juvéderm XC (Juvéderm with lidocaine) which provides enhanced comfort during injections. A topical anesthetic may also be used to provide additional comfort. Once injected, Juvéderm can be sculpted to get a natural and beautiful result. The procedure only takes a few minutes depending on the area being injected.
