Botox & Dysport are the brand names of an injectable used to treat facial fine lines and wrinkles in men and women.
Repetitive muscle movements, loss of collagen in the skin and damage from the sun and free radicals all cause facial wrinkles and lines. Neurotoxins works by temporarily reducing muscle activity in the area being treated resulting in the reduction of skin lines and wrinkles.
Dermal Fillers are soft gels that are used to sculpt and volumize tissue. Fillers can be used to add volume to soften lines, folds and hollows including under eyes, temples, and areas around the mouth. Filler can also be used to contour and enhance facial features such as lips, cheeks, jaw and chin areas. Dermal fillers come with different qualities including degrees of softness and flexibility to firmer and moldable. Each filler is chosen depending on the results we want to achieve as well as the type of skin and bone structure you have. Our goal is to leave you with natural enhancement that perfectly balances and compliments your unique facial features.
Kybella is the first and only FDA approved injection treatment for submental fat or fat under the chin, often referred to as a “double chin”. Kybella is a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring acid in our body that breaks down dietary fat. When Kybella is injected into the fat underneath the skin, it causes destruction of fat cells. The results are permanent as the fat cells are eliminated. This is a minimally invasive technique with minimal discomfort and downtime.
Submental fullness is a common cosmetic concern that can be seen in men and women that can be caused by aging, weight gain, and genetics. Submental fullness can cause an older or heavier appearance because of its effect on facial balance and proportion. Most people will need 2-3 treatments to achieve their desired results and some up to 6 treatments.
