Injectables
Combining different types of injection treatments may produce better results than a single injection. Certain fillers restore volume while others treat moderate to severe wrinkles or folds in the skin. BOTOX® Cosmetic prevents new wrinkles from forming. Your Via Christi Advanced Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery physician will discuss all of these options with you during your consultation to determine which injections are most beneficial for your individual concerns. Because we care about providing you the best possible outcome, Via Christi Advanced Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery always receives injectables directly from the product manufacturer.
BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® Injections
Both products relax the muscles by blocking nerve impulses and have been used for several years to treat overactive muscles that cause wrinkles. This fast and safe procedure takes only a few minutes, but results last for three to six months. A physician will determine your treatment course and perform the procedure.
