What are cosmetic injectables?

Cosmetic injectables are substances your Venus Medi Spa provider injects just beneath your skin to reduce or eliminate signs of aging. The procedure is fast, painless, and noninvasive but can produce dramatic anti-aging results. 

What are the different types of injectables?

The team at Venus Medi Spa offers numerous cosmetic injectables that can diminish signs of aging. Examples include:

Neurotoxins

Botox, Dysport®, and Jeuveau® are examples of injectables made of botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that paralyzes facial muscles associated with laugh lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, and other facial lines.

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers contain natural substances, such as hyaluronic acid, to restore facial volume, reduce wrinkles, and improve facial symmetry. Examples of fillers include Juvéderm®, Radiesse®, Vollure®, Voluma®, Juvéderm Ultra, and Juvéderm Ultra Plus.

Sculptra

Sculptra is a cosmetic injectable used to stimulate collagen production and restore facial volume, providing a natural-looking and long-lasting improvement in skin texture and firmness. It's often chosen for its ability to address deep wrinkles and facial folds, offering subtle, progressive results over several months.

Am I a good candidate for cosmetic injectables?

To determine if you’re a good candidate for injectables, your Venus Medi Spa provider examines your skin and reviews your medical history. If you have loose skin, fine lines, wrinkles, or other signs of aging and have realistic expectations, injectables might be the non-surgical solution you’ve been searching for.

What happens during the procedure?

During a cosmetic injection procedure, your provider uses a topical anesthetic to numb the treatment area. They inject neurotoxins or fillers just beneath your skin at targeted areas. The procedure is fast and painless, without downtime.

What should I expect after the injections?

You might notice swelling or redness at the injection site after receiving Botox or fillers. Apply ice to the area as needed to reduce inflammation. Fillers can produce results immediately, while you may notice the effects of Botox several days after treatment. 

Your Venus Medi Spa provider might recommend a series of treatments or injectables combined with another cosmetic procedure to help you achieve the results you desire.

When should I schedule repeat injections?

Dermal fillers can last from six to 24 months, depending on the type of filler your provider uses, while Botox-like injectables often last three to six months. After that, simply go back for periodic maintenance treatments to achieve long-lasting results.

Don’t let signs of aging ruin your confidence when cosmetic injectables are a simple, painless solution. Schedule an appointment with Venus Medi Spa by calling the office or requesting an appointment online today.
