Rejuvenate Your Appearance
Without Surgery
Injectables are non-surgical treatments that rejuvenate your appearance by targeting specific concerns, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and lost volume. They are typically administered through a series of injections into the skin or underlying tissues. We offer a wide range of injectables, including neurotoxins like Botox, dermal fillers like JUVÉDERM, Restylane, and Revanesse, and collagen-stimulating fillers like Sculptra. Each injectable works differently, from relaxing facial muscles to restoring facial volume, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
Injectables Treat:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Facial volume loss
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Marionette lines (lines around the mouth)
- Smoker’s lines (lines around the lips)
- Hollow under eyes
- Forehead lines
- Chin wrinkles
- Neck bands
- Hollow or gaunt cheeks
- Thin or insufficiently voluminous lips
- Lip shape or contour issues
- Insufficient chin projection
- Jawline contour issues
The Injectables We Offer
BOTOX
BOTOX is a popular injectable used to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It is derived from the botulinum toxin type A and works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. By relaxing the muscles, BOTOX smooths out wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. The results can be seen within days and last for 3 to 6 months.

JUVÉDERM
JUVÉDERM is a collection of dermal fillers composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain skin hydration and volume. It is used to treat a variety of concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss in the face. By injecting JUVÉDERM into targeted areas, it adds volume and plumps up the skin, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The results are instant and usually last 6 to 18 months.

Restylane
Restylane is a collection of hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers designed to address various facial concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of facial volume. Injecting Restylane into specific facial tissues adds volume and fullness to the skin, smoothing out wrinkles and enhancing facial contours. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane attracts and retains moisture, helping to hydrate and rejuvenate the skin from within. This results in a more youthful appearance with natural-looking results that last up to 18 months.

Revanesse
Revanesse is a line of hyaluronic acid fillers designed to target mild to moderate signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and facial volume loss. Revanesse adds volume and plumps up the skin, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles while restoring youthful contours. What sets Revanesse apart is its advanced cross-linking technology, which results in a smooth gel consistency that seamlessly integrates into your skin for soft and natural-looking results.

Sculptra
Sculptra is a unique injectable designed to stimulate your skin’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works gradually over time to restore volume and improve skin texture. It is primarily used to treat facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds, by replenishing lost collagen. What makes Sculptra distinctive is its ability to provide subtle and natural-looking results that can last up to two years. By stimulating collagen growth, Sculptra helps restore youthful contours and improves overall skin quality.

Injectables FAQs
How long do injectable treatments typically last?
The duration of injectable treatments varies depending on the type of injectable used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Generally, neurotoxins like BOTOX typically last around 3-4 months, while dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years.
Are injectable treatments painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during injectable treatments. The needles used are very fine, and some injectables contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to enhance comfort. Additionally, topical numbing creams can be applied beforehand to further reduce discomfort.
Are there any side effects associated with injectable treatments?
While injectables are generally safe, some common side effects may occur, including redness, swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort at the injection site. These side effects are typically mild and temporary, resolving within a few days to a week.
How soon will I see results after receiving injectable treatments?
Results can vary depending on the type of injectable used. Neurotoxins like BOTOX typically begin to show results within a few days to a week, with optimal results visible within 1-2 weeks. Dermal fillers often provide immediate results, though full effects may take a few days to settle. Collagen stimulators like Sculptra work gradually, with improvements becoming more apparent over several weeks as collagen production increases.
How long is the recovery time after receiving injectable treatments?
One of the advantages of injectable treatments is minimal downtime. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment. However, to minimize the risk of swelling and bruising, it’s essential to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for the first 24-48 hours following treatment. Dr. Magill provides personalized post-treatment care instructions to optimize your recovery and ensure the best possible results.
