Injectables

What Are Injectables?

Injectables are an effective alternative to cosmetic surgery. The results are similar, but the process is less invasive. Injectables are used beneath the skin, providing a natural lift to rejuvenate your appearance.

When you are considering injectables, you should know that there are different types and brands available.

• DermaSculpt™ Microcannula: is designed to minimize negative side effects for a more pleasant experience.
• Botox®: Botox targets muscles, easing contractions to reduce wrinkles. It is most effective on the eyebrows, forehead and eyes. Results usually last for three months.
• Juvederm®: This injectable is best applied to the mouth and nose for severe or moderate issues. It is currently the world’s best selling gel filler. It is made from bio-compatible ingredients, which allows it to be naturally reabsorbed into the body within a year.
• Bellafill®: This injectable is very durable. Bellafill works within your skin, stimulating collagen production. This minimizes fine lines, and it can address bags around your eyes. Results can extend for five years.
• Radiesse®: Radiesse uses natural ingredients to fill your unwanted skin lines. It is especially useful for problem areas around the mouth or nose, but it has also been used for scars. Since it utilizes calcium hydroxylapatite, the results can last a year.
• Voluma®: If you are looking to fill out your cheeks, you need Voluma. No other product has FDA approval for this purpose. With this injectable, you can create a youthful look with full, round cheeks. Better still, the look can extend for two years.
• Belotero® Balance: This filler uses hyaluronic acid, which is naturally absorbed by your skin. Since this filler is lighter, it is best for smaller areas around the upper lip or under the eyes. You can also use Belotero for nasolabial folds. The effect can be seen for six months.
• Kybella™: You do not have to use surgery for your dreaded double chin. Kybella is the only non-surgical option approved by the FDA to address submental fullness caused by aging, genetics and weight fluctuation.
• Restylane®: If you have moderate or severe issues, this may be your solution. You can use Restylane for laugh lines and other wrinkles around your jawline, mouth and nose.
• Sculptra® Aesthetic: Sculptra Aesthetic helps your body replace collagen. The results are subtle and cumulative, making this a great ongoing choice.
