What parts of the face do injectables treat?
Different facial injectables are appropriate for different areas of the face. Talk to your provider to ensure you get the results you want.
How are facial injectables administered?
Facial injectables are injected beneath the skin and are to be administered by, and in the office of, a trained provider.
TOXINS
Toxins smooth lines and grooves — typically in the upper face — by temporarily weakening or paralyzing muscles. Results appear 3-4 days after treatment.
TRADITIONAL Fillers
Traditional fillers temporarily replace lost fat in the mid to lower face. Each injection literally fills the space below wrinkles so results are immediate.
COLLAGEN Stimulators
Collagen stimulators are facial injectables that are used to replace lost collagen, rebuild underlying structure, and reduce appearance of wrinkles.
RH Collection
The only FDA approved hyaluronic acid filler for dynamic wrinkles and folds
Dynamic wrinkles and folds appear in areas of the face that move repetitively. Your face is dynamic, making millions of movements and micro-movements every day. Movements like squinting, frowning, laughing, and talking create dynamic wrinkles and folds. These wrinkles and folds can be difficult to treat because dermal fillers may cause the area to appear stiff or unnatural when the face moves.
RHA® Collection is designed to be resilient enough to adapt to your facial movement, which may provide a more natural look at rest and in motion.
Designed to Resemble Natural HA
The RHA® Collection is made with a gentle manufacturing process. This gentle process helps preserve the natural structure of the hyaluronic acid, allowing it to more closely resemble the natural hyaluronic acid in your skin. There are three formulations in the RHA® Collection, and your provider will help you determine which one is best for your treatment plan.
The Role of Natural HA in the Skin
The natural hyaluronic acid in your skin helps provide moisture, volume, and structure to your skin. Over time, your skin produces less hyaluronic acid. The RHA® Collection is formulated to more closely mimic the HA that already exists in your skin, and may result in a more natural look.

Sculptra
Age doesn’t have to look the way it used to. It’s more subtle. More gradual.
How does Sculptra Aesthetic work?
Collagen is a key structural component that keeps skin youthful looking and smooth. As you age, your body’s collagen production decreases, and you may begin to see wrinkles. Sculptra Aesthetic is a facial injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid, which helps to replace lost collagen. This reinforced collagen structure provides a foundation that gradually restores the look of fullness of your shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds that has been depleted over time. The main ingredient is a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material that has been used by physicians for decades. By replacing lost collagen, Sculptra can help provide a refined, more youthful looking appearance.
What is Sculptra Aesthetic?
Sculptra Aesthetic is the first facial injectable that can give you noticeable results that emerge subtly. It replaces lost collagen to give you a more natural-looking appearance. A full treatment of Sculptra Aesthetic — on average, 3 injection sessions over a few months, can last for more than 2 years.
