Facial injectables include a broad range of substances that are administered by injection to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles and restore facial contours. These include toxins, traditional fillers, and collagen replacers, and each treatment works differently.

Botox®

Reduce existing wrinkles and prevent new ones from forming.  Early and regular maintenance will ensure your skin maintains its elasticity and natural collagen, reducing your chance for more wrinkles as you age.

Botox is safe and effective.  It corrects vertical frown lines between your eyes, crow's feet around the corners of the eyes, wrinkles in the forehead and 'bunny lines' across your nose.  When injected in the right pattern we can use Botox to create a 'brow lift'.  Botox has been used in many areas of medicine for years and continues to demonstrate safety and effectiveness in the field of cosmetic medicine.  Results are noticeable in 3 - 7 days and typically last 3 - 4 months. 

Juvederm™/Restylane®

Juvederm and Restylane are smooth gel fillers made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your skin. They work by replacing lost volume and restoring youthful contours to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds such as the lines from your nose to the corners of the mouth.  They can also be used to help plump the lips and smooth out radial lip lines (wrinkles surrounding the lips).

Sculptra™

Sculptra Aesthetic is the first facial injectable that can give you noticeable results that emerge subtly. It replaces lost collagen to give you a more natural looking appearance without giving you away. A full treatment of Sculptra Aesthetic, on average, three injection sessions over a few months, can last up to two years.  Sculptra Aesthetic is made of a synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, which works to replace lost collagen. Poly-L-lactic acid is safe - absorbed naturally by the body - and has been used for years in dissolvable stitches.

Radiesse®

Radiesse is a filler as well as a collagen stimulator.  It instantly corrects wrinkles and will also stimulate collagenesis – the production of new collagen – which results in increased volume for natural looking wrinkle correction that may last a year or more in many patients
