Injections

 

If you’d like to restore youthful fullness to your face, enjoy plump lips, enhance shallow contours or soften those facial creases and wrinkles, dermal fillers may be the answer. Dermal fillers have been called “liquid facelifts” because they offer many of the benefits of a surgical facelift without the downtime.

Neurotoxins

Botox, Dysport, Xeomin

Neurotoxins are cosmetic forms of botulinum toxin, often referred to by its product name Botox®. This is a popular injectable that temporarily reduces or eliminates facial fine lines and wrinkles.

This purified toxin blocks the nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles to give the skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Studies have also suggested that Botox is effective in relieving migraine headaches, excessive sweating and muscle spasms in the neck and eyes.

Common Treatment Areas: Forehead, crow’s feet, glabella region, lower face, neck, hands and under arms (for excessive sweating).

Sculptra

Studies have shown that we start losing collagen production in our mid 20’s. Collagen is the most common protein in the body and helps support the inner skin’s structure. Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that helps gradually replace lost collagen. The main ingredient in its formula is poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is responsible for stimulating collagen, providing long-lasting results. Sculptra helps increase the skin’s thickness, significantly improving the appearance of folds, wrinkles, and fine lines.

Kybella

Kybella is a nonsurgical injection technique used to reduce excess fat beneath the chin. Kybella uses a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a molecule that occurs naturally in our bodies to metabolize fat. When injected, it works by permanently destroying fat cells reducing submentum fullness and improves the overall appearance of the chin This leaves the skin under the chin tighter, and more contoured, giving it a more youthful appearance.

MIC/B12 “skinny shots”

For fat burning, a combo that works well is MIC and B12, referred to as a lipotropic injection. MIC stands for methionine, inositol and choline, three nutrients that are vital to breaking down fatty tissue in the body. When these four nutrients are combined in a lipotropic injection, they give your body some of the vital components it needs to burn fat and turn it into energy. During your weight loss program, you can use MIC/B12 injections once or twice a week to help you maximize your weight loss and energy levels, without harmful stimulants or drugs.

Dermal Fillers

Juvederm, Voluma, Volbella, Vollure, Ultra XC, Volux, Restylane, Defyne, Refyne, Contour, Silk, Kysse, Versa

Over time, our skin loses elasticity and moisture, which can result in moderate to severe volume loss noted in the cheeks, chin, temples, and deep lines and wrinkles around the nose and corners of your mouth. Dermal filler is a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that is specifically formulated to act like your body’s own naturally produced hyaluronic acid. While serums and creams can help moisturize the skin’s surface, dermal fillers add volume beneath the skin’s surface to lift, contour and smooth these lines and folds, to help give you the natural-looking, long-lasting results you want.

Common Treatment Areas: Temples, cheeks, lips, jawline, chin, marionette lines, nasolabial folds, and smile lines.

Plasma-Rich-Fibrin (PRF)

PRF is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure derived from the person’s own blood. At the time of the procedure, blood is collected into selected tubes and spun in the centrifuge at a low speed. PRF contains a mixture of white blood cells, stem cells, and fibrin. Growth factors are responsible for stimulating collagen production, hyaluronic acid production, fibroblast stimulation, and promote cell growth and
tissue healing/regeneration. PRF benefits include skin regeneration, promotes wound healing, improves skin texture, pigmentation, and dark circles around the eyes.
V

Vitamin B-12

This is an important water-soluble vitamin with a long list of benefits. It has a key role in the normal functioning of our neurological system and helps in the formation of healthy red blood cells. Our body does not produce Vitamin B12 and is dependent on nutritional intake. Vitamin B12 provides a boost of energy and plays a key role in digestion and metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Vitamin B 12 has been shown to decrease homocysteine levels which reduces our risk of developing heart attacks, strokes or dementia.
