Neurotoxin & Filler Treatments
Neurotoxins
What is a neurotoxin?
Neurotoxins temporarily block nerve signals to muscles, causing them to relax which results in a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and other muscle-related conditions. Neurotoxins are primarily used for cosmetic purposes to smooth facial lines caused by expressions like frowning or squinting. We carry two FDA regulated neurotoxins: Botox® & Jeuveau®.
Botox®
Botox® is an FDA-approved neurotoxin that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing targeted facial muscles. It is commonly used to smooth crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines). Botox® can also be used for medical purposes, such as treating chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and muscle spasms.
Jeuveau®
Jeuveau® is an FDA-approved neurotoxin injectable treatment that works to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines in adults.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers
What is a filler?
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers are injectable dermal fillers designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin that helps retain moisture and elasticity, making it an ideal ingredient for rejuvenating and hydrating the skin. WVMA carries the following fillers:
Juvéderm® XC
Juvéderm® XC is an injectable gel that instantly smooths moderate to severe parentheses lines and wrinkles around your nose and mouth. Its effectiveness has been proven time and time again, delivering real results that last up to one year.
Juvéderm® Ultra Plus
Juvedérm® Ultra Plus is a treatment that adds more fullness and plumps thin lines; this treatment works whether your lips have thinned overtime or you simply want fuller lips. Juvéderm Ultra Plus lasts up to one year.
Juvéderm® Voluma XC
Wrinkles and lines aren’t the only signs of aging. Over time, the cheeks flatten and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. Juvéderm® Voluma XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin’s surface to lift and contour the cheek area.
Juvéderm® Vollure XC
Vollure XC is used to soften moderate to severe parenthesis lines and wrinkles by adding volume to the lines and wrinkles around your nose and mouth to produce subtle and long-lasting results for up to 18 months.
Juvéderm® Volbella
Volbella is tailored to add subtle volume to the lips and smooth the appearance of vertical lip lines.
Juvéderm® Volux XC
Juvéderm® Volux XC is a dermal filler that is designed to improve jawline definition and address moderate to severe loss of definition in the chin and jawline area.
Other Injectable Treatments
WVMA additionally offers a wide variety of injectable treatments, all designed to enhance your natural features, restore volume, and contour targeted areas for a more youthful and balanced appearance.
Kybella®
Kybella® is a prescription medicine used in adults to improve the appearance of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat), also called a “double chin.”
The injection contains a naturally occurring molecule that eats away at fat. When injected properly, all other cells are left healthy and intact. Using Kybella® for treatment on areas other than the double chin is not approved or recommended.
Kybella® is identical to deoxycholic acid, which is produced in the body to absorb fats. When properly injected into submental fat, the drug destroys fat cells. Kybella is administered as an injection into the fat tissue in the submental area.
Microneedling with PRP
Microneedling is a treatment that involves the use of tiny needles that produce micro-injuries to the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, which is the substance that provides flexibility and strength to the skin and body tissue. To speed the healing process, microneedling is further enhanced by injecting PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) into the treated tissue. The PRP is obtained from drawing a small amount of your own blood, from which the plasma is separated to concentrate healing properties.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a method used to treat different skin conditions. The technique involves using multiple tiny, sterile needles to puncture the skin and small abrasions.
This trauma prompts the derma, a deeper layer of skin, to rebuild collagen production; microneedling treats acne scarring, softens wrinkles, and rejuvenates your skin. We recommend a series of 3-5 treatments for optimal results.
Vitamin B12 Injections
B12 Injections are an excellent way to boost energy and improve mood. Vitamin B12 is important for growth, cell reproduction, blood formation, and protein and tissue synthesis. We offer individual or series of injections typically spaced one week apart.
