Injectables effectively target signs of aging, and in younger patients can prevent the formation of some lines. Each of our Beauty MD locations offers a medically trained expert to guide you through the process of discovering how Botox and Fillers can help you with your beauty plan.

What Are Injected Denervating Agents? (Botox)

Denervating agents (also called neurotoxins) may not sound familiar to you, but most people are familiar with at least one brand approved for cosmetic use: Botox.

Botox is a botulinum A type neurotoxin that prevents the nerve reaction necessary for the injected muscles to contract, preventing lines and wrinkles caused by repeated, localized muscle contractions. The result is a reduction in the ability to make facial expressions that create wrinkles and deep folds in the skin. Patients using Botox will see varying degrees of improvement from complete erasure to very visible softening.

Edmonton Restylane & Juvaderm (Dermal Fillers)

These soft tissue fillers plump up the skin’s structure, restoring its youthful smooth appearance. Hyaluronic acids like Restylane play an integral role in your skin’s structure, providing the volume and plumpness associated with young, supple skin. The hyaluronic acid building block fills the space between collagen and elastin fibres in the skin, holding in moisture and maintaining skin’s volume. As you age, the natural levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin decrease due to sun exposure, time and environmental conditions making hyaluronc acid is ideal for replenishing the skin’s volume.

What Are Dermal Fillers ? (Juvederm, Perlane, Restylane and Teosyal)

The key ingredient in soft tissue fillers is hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a key component to the skin's structure and its ability to attract and bind water molecules helps maintain the volume associated with a youthful appearance. As we age, the natural levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin decrease due to sun exposure, time and environmental conditions causing deflation or "sinking" in areas of the face. By replenishing these deflated areas with injectable fillers, the appearance of fine lines and volume loss is minimized.

Treatment Areas for Dermal Fillers
• Smile Lines (Nasolabial Folds)
• Marionette Lines (Oral Commissures)
• Eye Area: Address the sunken look or dark circles around your eyes. Add volume to sagging eyebrows.
• Cheeks: Replace volume in cheeks to define a youthful face.
• Lips: Enhance the border and definition, as well as the fullness and pouting of the lips.
• Chin and Jaw: Obtain a smoother jawline by adding volume to the chin area.

How Long Do Injectables Fillers Last?

Soft-tissue fillers are generally considered temporary, semi-permanent or partially permanent since the results of treatment will diminish over time. The lack of permanence is truly beneficial – your face is always changing as a result of aging and weight fluctuations, nonpermanent fillers allow subtle changes in your face to be addressed as they appear. If using a hyaluronic filler like Restylane and Juvaderm, your body naturally absorbs the hyaluronic acid over time, so touch-ups are needed to maintain the results. Your improved look will last up to six months or more, depending on the location of the treatment and the amount of filler used.
