While plastic surgery continues to be the most effective and noticeable way of achieving changes to the skin, face, and body, not everyone is well-suited for these invasive procedures. When patients have mild to moderate signs of aging and other concerns that occur and require attention, they may find out that they are viable candidates for minimally-invasive options such as cosmetic injectables. Cosmetic injectables are a popular way of putting off plastic surgery with an affordable alternative that still offers noticeable results. Patients with fine lines and wrinkles on the face often find that these injectables are a wonderful solution for their unique needs.
What injections are available?
Our providers offer the following injectables for patients in the area:
- Neuromodulators – neuromodulators, or neurotoxins, are used to reduce muscle contractions of the face that contribute to the formation of dynamic wrinkles. Some of our popular neuromodulators used include Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin.
- Collagen stimulators – with time, it is natural for men and women to lose collagen and elastin in the skin which can cause fine lines and wrinkles to develop. With a collagen stimulator such as Sculptra, many men and women can add volume to specific areas of the face for a more youthful look.
- Dermal fillers – dermal fillers are gel-like injectables that are administered directly into wrinkles and folds of the face to smooth them out and reduce the signs of aging. We offer two families of dermal fillers in our practice, including the line of Juvederm and Restylane injections.
- Kybella – Kybella is a unique and FDA-approved treatment for fat reduction underneath the chin to address submental fullness. Submental fullness is often referred to as the “double chin” and can be bothersome for both men and women who deal with it.
