Injectables

What are Botox injectables?

Syosset Medi Spa offers neuromodulators like Botox and dermal fillers to restore your youthful appearance.

According to a recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, FDA-approved botulinum toxin injections (Botox) are the top minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed in the US.

Botox uses neurotoxins to block nerve signals to the facial muscles that help you make expressions like smiling or raising your eyebrows. With time, the lines and wrinkles create lasting impressions on your face.

After a Botox procedure, you can still make facial expressions, but your muscles now stay relaxed. This improves wrinkles and lines and restores your skin’s smooth appearance.

How do dermal filler injectables work?

Dermal fillers are gels that enhance the heft and strength of your skin and add volume to your face. This can soften your facial contours. 

As you get older, your face loses volume. This loss leads to sagging, hollowed areas, and wrinkles. Dermal fillers restore this volume so that you look refreshed and younger.

Many formulas feature an artificial form of hyaluronic acid and substances that encourage your body to produce more collagen. Your body produces less collagen as you age.

What can injectables address?

Cosmetic injectables are a quick solution with nearly immediate results. They can address several aging and skin concerns, including:

• Lines from the corners of your mouth to your chin
• Lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth
• Vertical lip lines and lip thinning
• Hollowing in the cheek and midface region
• Hollows beneath the eyes
• Creases in the forehead and between the brows
• Crow’s-feet around the eyes
• Vertical cords in the neck
• Drooping jowls

Dr. Khalfin personalizes your treatment to address your main concerns and revitalize your appearance.

How long do the results of injectables last?

Botox offers smoother skin for 3-4 months. The effects of dermal fillers last 6-18 months before the particles dissolve. The effects depend on the formula your provider uses, the area treated, and your metabolism.

Your provider wants your desired aesthetic to be consistent. So, they work with you to develop a dermal filler or Botox treatment plan.
