What are Botox® injections?

Botox is known as a neuromodulator — a type of drug that eases muscular activity so the lines and wrinkles that appear when you smile, frown, or wince soften or disappear altogether. 

Botox injections are quick and nearly painless. Your session is complete in about 10-20 minutes, and results start to appear within 48 hours. Full results show up after about 10 days. 

You get wrinkle reduction for about 3-4 months, but maintain your youthful appearance by getting regular retreatments. 

What are filler injections?

Dermal fillers contain ingredients that boost skin hydration to effectively plump the skin and erase wrinkles. If you have sunken cheeks or thinning lips, they also fill these areas in to give you a youthful roundness or pleasant lip pump.

The exact ingredients in fillers depend on the brand, but many contain hyaluronic acid. This natural compound your body plentifully produces in youth attracts water to the skin's surface. Your body produces less of it as you age, making skin age and sag. Dermal fillers replace hyaluronic acid stores to lift and hydrate your skin.

What types of concerns can Botox and filler injections treat?

Botox and fillers are the answer for a number of common aging complaints, including:

• Crow’s feet
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Frown lines between the brows
• Fat loss in the cheeks
• Thinning lips
• Smoker’s lines
• Nasolabial folds that run from the sides of your nose to your mouth
• Cobblestone chin
• Vertical neck cords

Make sure to speak with your provider about which injections are right for you.

Yes! The practice also offers Vitamin B12 injections. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that supports brain, nervous system, and metabolic function. B12 helps you metabolize nutrients like fat, carbohydrates, and protein. They also support weight loss by providing a high dose of the vitamin. 

The nutrient optimizes your fat-burning and metabolic capabilities. Plus, it delivers a dose of energy that helps you stay active as part of your weight-loss plan. 

PRP

PRP Plasma Rich Platelets are autologous means they use your blood; therefore, it is free of disease transmission and no hypersensitivity, enhances healing, and new blood vessel formation, stimulates the dormant hair follicle, and reduces Inflammation.

Adding Micro-needling or FSR Procedure to PRP enhances the effect, induces Collagen Induction, and improves skin luminosity and tone.   

PRP helps skin rejuvenation and antiaging, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, facial Rhytids, nasolabial folds and folds under the eyes, and reduces hyperpigmentation, Brown spots and age spots, and Acne Scars. PRP helps hair restoration and enhances wound healing.

PRP can be used as Filler to augment tissue, as it adds some volume and fills cheeks and lines around the mouth, lips, eyes and chin. This effect can be augmented with Microneedling. PRP creates new cells, and stimulates collagen production, which creates a longer-lasting effect.
