Neuromodulators: BotoxTM, DysportTM, XeominTM

Neuromodulators refer to a class of injectables used to temporarily reduce or eliminate facial wrinkles and lines by relaxing the underlying muscles. The most well-known neuromodulators include Botulinum toxin type A formulations, such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin.

These products work by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract, leading to a smoother appearance of the skin above those muscles. Neuromodulators are primarily used to treat dynamic wrinkles, which are formed by repeated facial expressions like frowning, squinting, and smiling.

Common treatment areas include the forehead, around the eyes (crow's feet), and between the eyebrows (frown lines). The effects of neuromodulators are temporary, typically lasting three to four months, after which the treatment can be repeated to maintain the desired effect.

Instead of directly increasing volume in wrinkles like dermal fillers, neuromodulators work by inhibiting the facial movements that lead to wrinkle formation. Administered by our triple board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Mary Thomas, at Central Alberta Dermatology, neuromodulators ensure a smoother skin texture while preserving the natural capacity for facial expression. This approach has been effectively employed for many years, addressing prevalent aging issues for both men and women.

Belotero fillers for every wrinkle and crease

As the skin undergoes the natural aging process, collagen and elastin production begins to decline, resulting in the appearance of signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. However, advanced dermal filler treatments, such as Belotero, have been developed to minimize the appearance of these age-related signs effectively.

Belotero is an injectable cosmetic dermal filler that is used to reduce fine lines and folds in facial skin. The hyaluronic acid base is used in this treatment. Hyaluronic acid is a natural sugar found within the skin. It is responsible for water absorption and the transport of nutrients. In addition, it acts as a replenishing agent in the skin.

How does Radiesse work?

Radiesse is an injectable filler product made up of calcium hydroxylapatite. It is used most commonly to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles. It is also used to shape, soften, or augment the cheeks, chin and jawline. It can also be used to treat the back of the hands, reducing the appearance of prominent veins

Radiesse is unique among other dermal fillers as it works to stimulate natural collagen production and has long-lasting results. The effects of Radiesse can last approximately 18-24 months, which makes this product desirable to people who would rather limit their treatments. Radiesse will immediately add volume and over time it will stimulate the body’s own collagen production. Radiesse is injected through a small needle under the skin immediately providing results and diminishing signs of aging.

Radiesse effectively works to:

  • Smooth out smile lines, marionette lines & wrinkles around the corners of the mouth
  • Restore lost volume in hands, minimizing the appearance of tendons & veins
  • Contour the jawline
  • Contour the face & add volume to the cheek and temple area
  • Reduce the appearance of pre-jowl folds and smooth the neck area

How Does the Belotero Filler Work?

Belotero has a gel-like texture, providing volume to the skin. The hyaluronic acid utilized in this procedure forms a bond with the skin’s moisture, effectively filling in lines and wrinkles. Belotero is widely used to add volume to areas such as the lips, cheeks, and chin. In addition, certain Belotero products are formulated with lidocaine, a local anesthetic that helps alleviate discomfort during the injection.

Revanesse

Revanesse is a popular dermal filler known for its effectiveness in restoring volume and smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines. Made of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a gel, Revanesse stimulates collagen production in the skin, providing long-lasting results that can enhance your natural beauty.

Popularity for Kiss Lip Injections

Revanesse fillers are increasingly popular for Kiss Lip Injections due to their ability to enhance lip volume, shape, and definition. The filler can be strategically injected to create a plumper, more defined lip appearance, perfect for achieving the coveted "kissable lips" look. With Revanesse, clients can enjoy natural-looking results that last, making it a top choice for lip augmentation procedures.

Fat Reduction

Fullness under the chin, sometimes referred to as a “double chin,” is a common yet under-treated facial aesthetic concern that can affect a broad range of adults, including both women and men.

Causes may include:

  • Aging: It may naturally develop as you age.
  • Genetics: It may simply be part of your DNA.
  • Weight changes: It may result from gaining weight.

Sometimes, no matter how much you diet or exercise, the fullness in this area may not go away, making you feel like you look older and heavier than you actually are. Injection lipolysis is the most evidence-based and time-tested treatment for reducing the appearance of fullness under the chin.
