Injectables FAQ
In San Diego, California
How do injectables work?
The purpose of injectable fillers is to compensate for the loss of collagen and volume that occurs as a result of aging. With state-of-the-art natural filler materials, the body treats them as natural collagen and facial lines are smoothed as if that collagen had never been lost.
What are the advantages of using injectable fillers?
Today’s modern filler materials are all natural and carry less risk of reaction. Restylane, Radiesse, CosmoPlast, and Zyplast helps replace collagen and smooth facial lines and scars with immediate results that can take years off your appearance!
What can I expect from my injectable treatment?
You will notice a softening effect on the treatment areas. Lines will be smoothed, wrinkles minimized, and scars will become less noticeable. Your results will last a matter of months, but schedule your retreatment in advance to ensure optimal appearance is maintained.
What happens during a Radiesse treatment?
After your Face Beautiful doctor applies anesthetic, the Radiesse filler will be carefully placed under the skin of the treatment area via injection. You’ll notice fuller, more youthful looking skin immediately!
How do I get started with my first injectable treatment?
Your first step is to schedule a complimentary facial rejuvenation consultation at Face Beautiful. After discussing your options, you and your doctor will choose the best filler for your cosmetic goals. If you choose a collagen filler, your Face Beautiful physician will need to perform a sample skin test to make sure you are not sensitive to your chosen filler material.
