Injectables

Injectables are highly versatile, non-invasive treatments designed to address a wide range of aesthetic and wellness concerns. They provide effective, immediate, and natural-looking results, making them a cornerstone of modern medical aesthetics. Whether you’re looking to smooth fine lines, restore lost volume, or achieve a more youthful appearance, injectables offer a tailored solution to meet your goals.

Dysport

Dysport is abobotulinumtoxinA and is FDA-approved to treat the glabellar lines, also referred to as frown lines. Similar to Botox, dysport has proteins attached to the toxin, but the toxin itself is slightly smaller than Botox. However, antibody formation and eventual resistance is also possible. Dysport must also be refrigerated at all times. It is recommended for people with moderate or severe frown lines. Dysport is injected in different areas of your forehead to target these lines, are typically visible as soon as two days, and can last 2-5 months. Patient’s report that Dysport tends to feel “less tight” and slightly “more flexible” than Botox. This is where personal preference comes in.

Xeomin

Xeomin is incobotulinumtoxinA and is FDA-approved to treat the frown lines between the eyebrows. Xeomin differs from the others by lacking stabilizing proteins, and therefore does not require refrigeration before opening. Theoretically, patients are less likely to develop antibodies to Xeomin due to lack of attached proteins. However, many believe that the duration of action seems to be slightly less.

Juvederm

Juvederm treatments work to fill wrinkles from behind, injecting hyaluronic acid gel to firm and plump the skin. Its main ingredient, hyaluronic acid, is the ultimate hydrating ingredient and is found naturally in the dermis of your skin. Hyaluronic acid stimulates collagen production in your skin while also attracting and retaining moisture to give the skin a youthful look. Juvederm can be used to add volume and youth to areas of the cheek, moderate deep lines around the nose and mouth, and also soften frown lines. There are 3 types: Vollure, Voluma, Volbella.

• Vollure: Designed to smooth deep wrinkles and gently restore natural-looking contours in the lower face. Over time, the cheeks, chin and jawline area can be impacted by the natural aging process including a loss of volume or definition, and the appearance of deep nasolabial folds. This hyaluronic acid-based filler provides a versatile treatment option for patients who are looking for a discreet, natural look with minimal swelling and long-lasting result. Because Vollure delivers subtle, soft volume, it is well-suited for the nasolabial folds, which are the most requested dermal filler treatment area.
• Voluma: Wrinkles and lines aren’t the only signs of aging. Over time, the cheeks flatten, and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by a natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. Juvederm Voluma XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin’s surface to lift and contour the cheek area. Voluma XC is the first and only FDA-approved injectable gel to instantly add volume to your cheek area. It’s the nonsurgical filler your doctor uses to help restore a more youthful profile for up to two years with optimal treatment.
• Volbella: Juvederm Volbella is specifically designed to gently restore natural-looking lip volume and lip contours. Volbella uses VYCROSS™ technology, an innovative combination of low and high molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid (HA). HA is a naturally occurring, hydrating substance found in your skin. This product absorbs less water, so swelling rarely occurs after injections, and the treated skin remains hydrated. This is especially useful for the lips, which are the most sensitive and most likely to likely to swell, so this is a great advancement over previous HA products.
