INJECTABLES
WRINKLE RELAXERS (Neurotoxins)
Wrinkle relaxers are cosmetic treatments that use injections of neuromodulators, such as Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport, to temporarily relax facial muscles, thereby reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. These injections block nerve signals that tell the muscles to contract, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Common areas treated include forehead lines, frown lines, crow's feet, and platysmal bands.
Botox is FDA-approved for both cosmetic and medical purposes.
Botox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, the chemical messenger that signals muscles to contract.
By temporarily reducing this activity, Botox relaxes the targeted muscles, providing relief from symptoms and improving quality of life.
Results typically appear within a few days and last three to four months, sometimes longer, depending on the patient.
Dysport is an injectable treatment that temporarily softens wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that cause them.
Commonly used for frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet, Dysport works by blocking nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions.
This relaxation smooths the overlying skin, creating a natural, more youthful appearance.
Results typically appear within a few days and last three to four months, sometimes longer, depending on the patient.
Xeomin is an injectable neurotoxin used for both cosmetic and medical purposes.
Unlike other neurotoxins, it is a “naked” form of botulinum toxin type A, meaning it is purified to remove accessory proteins found in products.
This unique purity may help lower the chance of developing antibodies over time, which can sometimes reduce the effectiveness of treatment.
Results typically appear within a few days and last three to four months, sometimes longer, depending on the patient.
DERMAL FILLERS
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to increase volume, reduce wrinkles, and enhance facial features. They are frequently utilized to restore volume lost with age, treat wrinkles, and correct asymmetries.
Juvéderm is a family of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers that restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours.
Since HA is naturally found in the body, these fillers work seamlessly to hydrate and plump the skin.
Juvéderm can be used to soften lines, add fullness to the cheeks, and enhance lips with results that appear immediately.
Depending on the specific product used, results can last up to two years.
Restylane is a collection of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance natural features of the face and hands.
Each product in the Restylane family serves a specific purpose, such as lip enhancement, cheek contouring, and softening dynamic lines with XpresHAn Technology™.
Treatments are minimally invasive, provide immediate, natural-looking results, and typically last several months to a year.
Revance RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) fillers are designed to smooth dynamic wrinkles and folds by adapting to natural facial movement.
Unlike traditional fillers, RHA maintains the structure of natural hyaluronic acid, allowing flexibility and minimizing rigidity.
The result is a subtle, long-lasting improvement in areas such as the lips, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines, with a look that remains natural in both rest and motion.
