What Are Injectable Treatments?

Injectable treatments primarily include Botox injections and dermal fillers, which are both popular for non-surgical rejuvenation. Botox relaxes facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles that appear as a result of expressions, like crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines between the brows. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, restore lost volume in areas such as the cheeks, lips, under-eyes, and jawline.

Injectable treatments temporarily halt muscle contractions or plump skin with substances such as botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid. The body naturally produces hyaluronic acid, which is a hydrating compound that attracts and binds water. Dermal fillers inject additional hyaluronic acid to replenish hyaluronic acid production, which slows with age. Botox uses tiny amounts of a naturally occurring paralytic toxin to stop the muscle movement that causes wrinkles.

Treatments typically take 15-45 minutes, depending on the area and the number of injections. We use numbing creams to keep you comfortable, making the process significantly easier than surgeries that require general anesthesia, incisions, and hospital stays. Injectable treatments like dermal fillers are ideal for busy San Diegans who need a quick touch-up that won’t disrupt their lives.

Injectable results typically appear within days and can last 3-24 months, depending on the product, your metabolism, and lifestyle factors such as sun exposure. At The Laser Cafe, consultations start with a thorough skin analysis and a discussion about your goals. We see many patients with a range of goals from subtle prevention to corrective enhancement. We are here to help you look and feel your best.

The Benefits of Injectable Treatments

One major advantage of injectable treatments is the quick, subtle enhancements that boost confidence without the drastic “frozen face” look that patients want to avoid. Injectable anti-aging treatments improve skin texture, stimulate collagen production over time, and enhance facial contours for a well-rested, youthful glow. Many of our patients report feeling refreshed after only one session, with the effects increasing as the products work their magic.

Another clear benefit of injectables is the minimal downtime required. Most resume work and errands the same day, avoiding scars, swelling, and the weeks of recovery needed after surgery. After injectables, there are some aftercare tips to note, including avoiding the sun and skipping intense exercise for at least a week. UV can damage healing skin, while an increased heart rate can cause injectables to migrate. Otherwise, you can live life normally.

Furthermore, injectables are highly customizable. We can use a lighter touch for “baby Botox” in your 20s and 30s, or a more targeted correction for mature skin. Dermal fillers are also reversible, so rest assured that the product can be dissolved if you want adjustments. Combined treatments of Botox and fillers create a “liquid facelift” effect, resulting in harmonious rejuvenation.

Types of Injectable Treatments

Botox injections are ideal for wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, and between the eyebrows, relaxing muscles for up to six months. If you want to keep smiling without wrinkles, upper-face Botox can provide excellent results. Dermal fillers excel at treating mid- and lower-face volume loss in the cheeks, jawline, and lips, lasting for up to two years. For wrinkle treatment, we use brands like Juvéderm, Restylane, Radiesse, or Sculptra to firm the skin.

The long-term collagen stimulation delivers gradual, natural improvement over time. At The Laser Cafe, we offer treatments that make a real difference for our patients. Our skilled registered nurses customize treatment plans using FDA-approved products. We adhere to San Diego safety and hygiene standards to ensure our clients’ safety. Our relaxing atmosphere and expert team create a calming, comforting environment.

What Are the Recovery and Maintenance Requirements?

After non-surgical facial rejuvenation, you can expect minor tenderness that can be relieved with ice packs, arnica, and over-the-counter pain medications. Avoid lying down, rubbing, or sleeping on the treated area for at least four hours and steer clear of saunas, intense workouts, and direct sunlight for 24 hours. By day two, you can use light makeup and gentle skincare, and you can participate in light activity like walks.

Maintenance involves touch-ups every 3-12 months, depending on the product used and your results. Initially, your sessions will be spaced further apart to allow the product to settle properly. Lifestyle habits like daily sun protection, hydration, and an antioxidant-rich diet can extend the longevity of your results. It can be helpful to take before-and-after pictures so you can discuss any changes or refinements with your provider.
