Transform Your Look Cosmetic Injections and Filler Specials!

A Cosmetic injection unit is essentially a measure of a defined amount of biological activity. Cosmetic injections typically come in 100 molecule unit vials. As a patient you should keep track of how many units were injected in which locations. We also recommend not going to a provider that charges by area as you may end up overpaying for your Cosmetic injections!

Cosmetic injections, when injected, relax the muscles. They are typically used in the upper face — the crows feet, frown lines and horizontal forehead lines. It is also used to slim the face (by injecting into the masseter muscles in the jawline) and for excessive sweating in the underarms and hands and feet.

Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected under the skin. They are used for wrinkles and folds, or for lips. They can also be used for face reshaping like cheek enhancement, nose bridge lifting and chin enhancement. Some examples of dermal fillers include collagen-stimulating fillers like Juvederm and Versa.

Cosmetic injections anti-wrinkle treatments are a non-invasive procedure which require no recovery period. You might, however, notice some slight bruising or even swelling in the injected area (due to the needle). Cosmetic injections will take effect anywhere from 2 to 14 days after your treatment.

After injecting the Cosmetic injections, it can take anywhere from two to eight days to start working. We will assess the patient at two or three weeks to check the results. At eight weeks, the movement will start coming back, and at 12 weeks, the movement should be about 50 percent back to normal. At 16 weeks, the movement will be about 80 percent. It is good to re-treat sometime between three and four months.

Cosmetic injections needles are very small. Most people tolerate the injections very well. They can feel like a small pinch with a little sting afterwards. However this sensation only last for a couple seconds.

Dermal fillers and Cosmetic injections are two well-known cosmetic procedures for facial skin rejuvenation and wrinkle treatment. However, they mainly differ in terms of mechanism of action and types of wrinkle they treat best. Cosmetic injections stop muscle contraction to relax dynamic wrinkles such as Crow's feet whereas a filler treatment works best to fill in volume and correct static wrinkles like nasolabial folds, smile lines, and marionette lines.

After getting filler treatment, an individual may experience common temporary side effects like redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site. If any symptoms of allergic reaction to the filler happen or prolonged swelling or bruising persists, you should reach out to a medical professional.

Like with any cosmetic procedure, the results of a filler treatment are not permanent but they can last for a good 6 to 18 months depending on the filler product that is used and how quickly your body can metabolize it. Subtle improvements are noticeable immediately after the filler procedure and you can see visible plumpness in the treated area.
