What Are Injectables and Who is a Good Candidate?
Injectables include a variety of FDA-approved substances and neuromodulators delivered by trained clinicians to target volume loss, dynamic wrinkles, unwanted veins, excessive sweating, submental fullness (double chin), and even hair thinning. Treatments are performed in-office with topical or local anesthesia as needed and typically require minimal downtime.
Injectables suit many adults seeking non-surgical improvement. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking gradual or immediate enhancement without surgery. Certain medical conditions, pregnancy, or active infections may affect candidacy—your injector will review your history and goals to recommend the safest plan.
Our Injectable Treatments

Collagen Stimulation (Biostimulatory Fillers)
Biostimulatory injectables (such as poly-L-lactic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite) work by stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production over time to restore lost structure and improve firmness. Ideal for gradual, long-lasting improvement in facial volume, cheek support, and skin quality. Results develop over weeks to months and can last for a year or more depending on product and area treated.

Facial Balancing (Hyaluronic Acid Fillers)
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers restore youthful volume, refine contours, and create facial symmetry—whether you want subtle cheek support, lip enhancement, chin definition, or under-eye correction. HA fillers are reversible and customizable for natural-looking facial balancing tailored to your anatomy.

Wrinkle Relaxation (Neuromodulators)
Botulinum toxin injections relax targeted muscles to soften dynamic lines—commonly between the brows, across the forehead, and around the eyes (crow’s feet). Treatments are quick, with results appearing within days and typically lasting 3–4 months. Neuromodulators are also used to address neck bands, gummy smile, and jaw slimming in select patients.

Vein Treatment (Sclerotherapy & Injectable Options)
Small superficial leg veins and reticular veins can be treated with sclerotherapy or office-based injectable approaches performed by our trained clinicians. These procedures reduce visible veins, improve leg comfort, and enhance skin appearance. A targeted evaluation determines the safest and most effective method for your veins.

Sweat & Odor Reduction (Hyperhidrosis Treatment)
Botulinum toxin is FDA-approved to reduce excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the underarms, palms, or soles. Strategic injections block the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands, delivering months of dryness and improved comfort. We also offer guidance for odor management when relevant.

Double Chin (Submental Fullness)
Injectable options that dissolve fat (deoxycholic acid) can reduce submental fullness (double chin) non-surgically. Treatments involve a series of targeted injections with gradual fat reduction over weeks. Results are long-lasting when a healthy weight is maintained.

Hair Restoration (Injectable Therapies)
Injectable treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and other growth-factor concentrates are used to stimulate hair follicles, improve density, and support thicker growth in appropriate candidates. These therapies are often combined with topical or oral regimens for best results.
