Injectables

What are injectables?

Injectables are a category of treatment that provide cosmetic alterations for your face and sometimes the hands. There are several different types of injectables that work in different ways, but they all go into your skin through a needle and syringe. 

After discussing your goals extensively, your provider plans your treatment. They place all injectables carefully and build up to your desired results with small doses, so undesired results are unlikely. They also follow all safety measures while performing the injections. 

The amount of time you can enjoy your new appearance after the results of injectables varies by product. Once your results fade, you can return to Seraphim Beverly Hills for additional injections and enjoy them results for longer. 

What are my options for injectables?

Seraphim Beverly Hills offers a range of cosmetic injectables with anti-aging or appearance-enhancing results. Your provider can tell you more about:

Botox®

Botox is a product containing botulinum toxin type A, a neuromodulator. It acts on motor nerves, temporarily preventing them from flexing. This mechanism primarily treats fine lines like crow’s feet and forehead lines but also has several clinical applications. The results of Botox injections last for roughly four months.

Juvéderm® Voluma™

Juvéderm Voluma is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler, a soft and hydrating gel-like substance. It offers a subtle lifting effect and can volumize your cheeks or treat wrinkles in the mid or lower face. 

Juvéderm Volbella™

Juvéderm Volbella is a lip filler. It can plump or reshape your lips to make them fuller, more proportionate, or more symmetrical.

Juvéderm Ultra XC

Juvéderm Ultra XC contains a small amount of lidocaine for numbing. It offers maximum fullness for your lips or the wrinkles around your mouth.

Radiesse®  

Like the Juvéderm products, Radiesse is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler. It can treat more prominent wrinkles and folds on your face, a soft jawline, or bony aging hands. 

Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers tend to last for 6-12 months, depending on the specific product and area it treats. 

How should I prepare for injectables?

Your provider at Seraphim Beverly Hills details the instructions you must follow to prepare for successful treatment with injectables. First, you must come in for a consultation to discuss your health and cosmetic treatment goals. You should bring in an up-to-date list of the medications you take for your provider to review and make sure you can safely get injections.

You may need to stop taking certain medications leading up to your appointment, quit smoking, and make sure you come in with clean and makeup-free skin.
