Skin - Injectables

Smooth Moves

Many of the dermal injectable treatments we employ to smooth wrinkles and fill in deep facial lines are listed below. Benefits to these skin rejuvenation treatments include no downtime and instant gratification with immediate visible results.

As we age, our skin weakens and becomes less elastic allowing facial lines and wrinkles to form. Skin fillers refresh the skin and replenish its natural elasticity.

Natural Looks For Longer

Facial fat loss, or lipoatrophy, is the loss of fat beneath the skin, which can result in sunken cheeks, indentations, and hollow eyes. Sculptra® is a safe, synthetic, and biocompatible material that is injected below the surface of the skin in the area of fat loss. It provides a gradual and significant increase in skin thickness, improving the appearance of folds and sunken areas.

The effects of Sculptra® are enduring. In a clinical study, effects lasted for up to 2 years after the first treatment session in most patients. The results from Sculptra® are not immediate; Sculptra® provides a gradual increase in skin thickness.
