Neuromodulators :
Four types of botulinum neuromodulators are available:
Botox Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA). Botox is encased within a protein structure. This protein casing on Botox can cause immune reactions that can eventually block the actions on botulinum toxin when injected.
Xeomin (Oncobotulinum Toxin). “Naked” botox. Head-to-head studies with Botox Cosmetic showed identical effect and duration.
Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA). A different form from Botox or Xeomin
Jeuveau (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs) is created with a different process, but Dr. Ling has found it does not last as long, so does not offer this.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers can be used for temporary line and wrinkle improvement, or lip, nose or cheek enhancement. They are placed under the surface of your skin to restore the natural contours of your face or lips that were lost with aging, expressions, smoking, or drinking with straws.
Types Available:
There are several dermal fillers available to help with deep lines and wrinkles. They all work in different ways, in different depths and locations.
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers consist of hyaluronic acid, which is a substance humans make that keep their tissues hydrated and juicy. This clear gel can be used in all areas of the face and body. The product brands include Belotero, Juvederm family, Restylane family, Revanesse Versa, RHA Collection (of which we are an exclusive provider in Austin).
Radiesse is calcium hydroxylapatite, which is calcium matrix that is injected that creates a platform on which your body builds its own collagen. This white gel is used in all areas of the face, except lips. It can also be used on other parts of the body. Radiesse, in hyperdilute form, can be used to improve texture in thinning / sagging skin.
Sculptra is Poly-L-Lactic Acid, which stimulates your body to produce its own collagen on the particles. This process takes 6 weeks, and most people can expect 60-70% return from the initial injection. A second or third round of injections occurs six weeks after the previous, and the results can last up to two years, depending on how much collagen is produced. Sculptra is most commonly used to rebuild fallen cheekbones, deflated temples, cheeks, and hands.
Mesotherapy / Kybella
What It Is:
A series of small injections of medication that helps dissolve fat and cellulite. Kybella, a recently FDA-Approved fat-dissolving ingredient, is just one of several medications used in our mesotherapy mixture, that has been used for decades in Europe.
What It Does:
Phosphatidyl choline deoxycholic acid is the main ingredient that disrupts fat cells, releasing the fat. The other ingredients burn off the released fat, to help with absorption and elimination of the unwanted fat.
