Chances are, you may be a bit overwhelmed with all the injectable options available for lip plumping and softening lines, wrinkles and other skin imperfections.
Injectables have been one of the fastest-growing beauty treatments in the USA. Why the soaring demand? Simple, injectables are popular because they work. That with little or no downtime, immediate results and few potential side effects...other than the possibility of a little swelling and/or bruising.
Injectables have traditionally been used for lip and skin enhancement. As longer lasting fillers have become available volume replacement with injections beneath the skin have become commonplace. The latest trend involves using injectables to selectively enhance certain facial features such as brow height, lip position or nose contour...sculpting is in.
Injectables can help restore or improve facial harmony through replacing or adding volume beneath the skin surface (subdermal fillers), softening lines, scars or wrinkles (intradermal fillers) or weakening overactive facial muscles (denervating agents).
Popular volume enhancers include autologous fat, Radiesse, Restylane and Sculptra. Human collagen (CosmoDerm, CosmoPlast) and hyaluronic acids (Captique, Hylaform, Restylane) are popular wrinkle correctors. BOTOX®Cosmetic is the currently available denervating agent. Different injectables are sometimes used together in layers.
