Dysport

Clostridia botulina bacteria produces a class of chemical compounds known as "toxins." The toxin is processed and purified to produce a sterile product suitable for specific theraputic uses. Each client’s injection is individualized to attain the individual’s goals and to make age a more graceful process. We utilize a brand of botulinum toxin called Dysport, produced by Galderma. 

While there is no real downtime associated with this treatment, it is important to note that you may encounter some minor bruising. There are no long term side effects to having Botox injections. *Prices Vary.

*Please call to schedule appointments for Dysport*

Fillers

As we age, the natural collagen and elastin in the skin lessen, and facial volume is lost. Dermal fillers help restore volume loss to achieve a more youthful yet natural appearance. The discomfort is minimal and aesthetic outcomes are seen immediately. RHA brand fillers available. *Prices Vary.

Sculptra

Sculptra is the only FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid facial injectable that works with your body to help stimulate natural collagen growth. Sculptra is different from hyaluronic acid fillers because it is a collagen biostimulator that addresses the underlying cause of aging skin from within. Sculptra is made with PLLA-SCA, a plant-based ingredient that has been proven safe for decades, and is naturally broken down in the body. You lose about 1% of collagen each year. It is the most common protein in the body. A healthy supply of collagen in the skin is the source of a smooth and youthful complexion.
