Injectable Treatments
Injectable treatments at Azura Skin Care Center are very popular with our clients for subtle enhancements for a more youthful you. As the popularity has increased in these products, so has the confusion. Visit us to discuss available medical aesthetic treatments and your concerns with our experienced, licensed providers to develop a plan for your unique needs.
When Do You Choose a Neurotoxin and When Do You Choose Dermal Filler?
Both are injectable options to help the appearance of lines and wrinkles in the face, but each is very different. One works on the movement of a muscle and the other is more about replenishing volume.
Neurotoxins
BOTOX®, Dysport®, DAXXIFY™, and Xeomin® are used to relax a muscle and diminish movement. This, in turn, decreases the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When looking in the mirror, you may notice minimal lines or deep lines at rest. These lines can become more prominent with movement, such as with lifting your eyebrows, furrowing the area between the brows or around the eyes with smiling.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are different in that they do not interfere with muscle movement but rather they create volume in an area of depletion or in an area where you would like enhancement. They “fill up” space with a smooth natural look giving a more contoured appearance. Fillers are popular in the lips, the nasolabial folds, the under eyes, and in the cheeks. If the area of your concern looks better when “plumped up” filler would be your option.
Fat Reducers
In addition to neurotoxins and dermal fillers, there are fat reducers such as Kybella®. Kybella® is a permanent treatment for adults with moderate-to-severe fat below the chin, known as submental fat. If you are interested in having a more slender look around your neckline, without any dieting, we would love to talk to you about Kybella®.
Biostimulators
Sculptra® Aesthetic is the only FDA-approved facial injectable treatment that helps gradually replace lost collagen, the underlying cause of the appearance of aging. If you would like to appear more youthful-looking without appearing like you have had work done, Sculptra could be right for you!
