Types of Injectables

Neuromodulators, such as Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. These treatments are especially effective for areas like the forehead and crow's feet. Results typically take up to two weeks to fully set in and can last between three to five months.

Dermal fillers address age-related changes like volume loss and wrinkles. The most common type is hyaluronic acid (HA) filler. Results are immediate and typically last from one to three years, depending on the area treated and your unique physiology.

Biostimulators, including Sculptra, PRF, and PRP, improve skin quality. These treatments often require a series of sessions for optimal results, with improvements becoming more noticeable over several months.

Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators work by temporarily relaxing muscles, preventing them from contracting, and thereby reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Botox was the first FDA-approved neuromodulator for aesthetic use, but additional options are also now available.  The use of neuromodulators (also known as neurotoxins) is safe and has a long history to demonstrate that.

• Common Uses: Neuromodulators are best known for treating forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines. But they can also be applied to the lower face, jaw, and in the neck to relax platysma bands.
• Results and Duration: It can take up to two weeks for the effects to fully set in, with results lasting between 3 to 5 months, depending on the dosage, patient’s physiology, and lifestyle.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are designed to add volume and definition to the face, addressing age-related changes such as volume loss and wrinkles. The most common type of filler is hyaluronic acid (HA), a sugar-based molecule in gel form.

• Common Uses: Dermal fillers are used for enhancing lips, cheeks, chin, and jaw areas. They can also fill in deep lines and folds around the mouth and nose.
• Results and Duration: Results are visible immediately, although some swelling and bruising can occur. These side effects typically resolve within a few days to two weeks. Most HA fillers last from 1 to 3 years, depending on the area treated and individual metabolism. Some filler placements can last up to 10 years.

Biostimulators

Biostimulators, such as Sculptra, PRF (platelet-rich fibrin), and PRP (platelet-rich plasma), help improve skin quality and rebuild facial structure by stimulating the body’s collagen production.

• Common Uses: These treatments are ideal for overall facial rejuvenation and improving skin texture and firmness.
• Results and Duration: A series of treatments (usually 2-3) is typically required initially, followed by maintenance sessions. Results are gradual, appearing over several months as collagen builds up.

Benefits of Injectables

Injectables offer numerous benefits, making them a popular choice for aesthetic enhancement:

• Minimally Invasive: Injectables are non-surgical, involving minimal downtime and discomfort.
• Quick and Convenient: Treatments are often quick, with most sessions lasting from 15 minutes to an hour.
• Customizable: Procedures can be tailored to meet individual needs and aesthetic goals.
• Natural-Looking Results: When administered by experienced professionals, injectables provide subtle, natural-looking enhancements.

What to Expect During and After Treatment

Before receiving injectables your injector will help you choose between Botox, Dysport, and/or Jeuveau based on your unique needs and goals. After that, they will determine the best injection sites and proper dosing. Your skin will be cleansed and prepared before the injections begin. Most treatments involve multiple injection points, but the small needle used causes minimal discomfort. The procedure typically lasts 15 minutes or less. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site is common and usually subsides within a few days.

Dermal filler and biostimulator injections are similar in that your injector will guide you in the best product choice for your needs, and will select the best injection sites accordingly. The appointment time tends to be longer than for neuromodulators. 

Neuromodulators may take up to two weeks to show full effects, while dermal fillers provide immediate results. Biostimulators develop gradually over several months. Schedule follow-up appointments as recommended by your provider to maintain and optimize results.
