INJECTABLES
Botox
Botox® is a purified form of botulinum toxin (a protein) which is used to treat aesthetic and/or certain medical concerns. When injected into targeted muscles, Botox® relaxes and stops muscle contraction.
Effectively treats moderate to severe crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead creases
Fine lines and wrinkles will soften and may even disappear after Botox® injections
Can help reduce excessive sweating (hyperhydrosis), temporal-mandibular joint (TMJ) pain (caused by grinding teeth), and migraines.
Results seen within 10 days post-treatment, and will last 3-4 months.
No downtime; occasional minor bruising.
Dermal Fillers
Our face naturally loses volume due to age, bone, muscle, and fat loss; and our skin becomes less resilient due to factors such as environment, lifestyle, and genetics – for that, we use dermal fillers! Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected to smooth out certain facial features and uplift sagging, hollow areas of the face.
Restore facial volume, lift sagging skin, diminish fine lines around the mouth and nose, and plump up your lips.
Improves the appearance of scars, aging hands, and under-eye hollowness.
Re-establishes youthful contouring of the face.
We offer the Juvéderm® Collection of Fillers, including Juvéderm Ultra XC, Juvéderm Voluma™XC, Juvéderm Vollure™ XC, Juvéderm Volbella® XC, and Juvéderm SKINVIVE. We also offer Belotero Balance®, the RHA® Collection of Fillers, and more.
Bruising, swelling, and mild tenderness are the most common side effects after dermal filler injection.

Radiesse
Radiesse® is not only a filler, but also a biostimulator, composed of calcium hydroxyapatite. You will not only see immediate and natural-looking results but will continue to see improvement in the area(s) injected with Radiesse® for up to 1 year. Not only is Radiesse® used in the face, but it’s also being used throughout the body to help regenerate skin that’s crepey and has lost laxity.
