Injectables

Injectables offer a quick and easy way to address a number of specific issues non-surgically. There are a variety of products available that can address a wide array of problems ranging from crow’s feet to low energy levels.

Board-certified cosmetic surgeon Dr. George Solomon has an in-depth understanding of medical science and can determine the right injectable option for you. We currently offer numerous injectables at Solomon Cosmetic Center in Tampa.

WRINKLE REDUCERS

Wrinkles reducers are specifically designed to address and reduce the appearance of wrinkles in areas across the face. This includes common aesthetic concerns like:

• Brow Furrows
• Forehead Lines
• Crow’s Feet (wrinkles around the corners of the eyes)
• Bunny Lines (nose)
• Chin Wrinkles
• Lip Wrinkles

These injectables are an excellent option for combating some of the earlier signs of aging that occur on the face and can give you a more youthful and vibrant appearance. 
 

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF WRINKLE REDUCERS

Botox – The most popular injectable for wrinkle reduction on the market. Botox contains botulinum toxin type A and is used to temporarily paralyze facial muscles in order to smooth away wrinkles and prevent further wrinkling. The treatment only takes around 30 minutes to perform and provides results that last for around three months.

Dysport – An injectable designed for wrinkle reduction in areas like the corners of the eyes, the mouth, and the forehead. Contains botulinum toxin type A. Some studies indicate that Dysport works faster and lasts longer in some patients.

Jeuveau – One of the latest neurotoxin-based injectables for wrinkle reduction to hit the market. Unlike Botox and other injectables containing botulinum toxin type A, Jeuveau is made using a unique purification process. Jeuveau is also a more affordable option.

DERMAL FILLERS

Dermal fillers are injectables designed to address aesthetic issues such as:

• Deep Folds
• Saggin
• Thin Lips
• Hollowed Eyes and Cheeks
• Diminished Facial Contours.

Dermal fillers instantly add volume thanks to their thick gel formula, which are not quickly absorbed by tissue. They also help the tissue retain moisture and promote the production of collagen for longer-lasting results.

Dr. Solomon also offers the Penis Width and Girth Enhancement (PWAG) procedure using dermal fillers. 

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DERMAL FILLERS

Juvederm – Juvederm’s line of dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a substance that helps tissues retain moisture and stay hydrated. This gives the skin a plump and youthful appearance. Juvederm products include:

• Juvederm XC – Treats smile lines and other severe facial wrinkles and folds
• Juvederm Vollure XC – Treats moderate to severe wrinkles for an overall smoother look
• Juvederm Ultra XC – Plumps thin lips and fills in the nasolabial folds and parentheses lines
• Juvederm Voluma XC – Restores lost volume to the mid-face (cheeks)
• Juvederm Volbella XC – Rejuvenates the appearance of the lips

Radiesse – A dermal filler that can smooth away moderate and deep age lines and fill in hollow areas. Radiesse’s formula stimulates the production of collagen, a structural protein that makes the skin more taut and durable. Radiesse contains calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres, which provide a new framework for instant volume. These microspheres also stimulate new collagen production to maintain the results provided.

Restylane – A hyaluronic-based dermal filler designed to correct the appearance of moderate to severe facial folds and wrinkles. Restylane can be used to treat the nasolabial folds, parentheses lines, and marionette lines.

Bellafill – A collagen-based dermal filler that contains small spheres of polymethyl methacrylate. These form a base and provide the tissues with additional structural support. Bellafill’s thick and smooth formula provides instant results. Great for treating folds and wrinkles as well as improving the appearance of acne scars.

Belotero Balance – A dermal filler that contains hyaluronic acid. Belotero’s smooth formula easily blends into the natural structures of your skin and reinforces them while also filling in deep folds and lines. Excellent for filling in the nasolabial folds.

Sculptra Aesthetic – A powerful dermal filler that contains poly-L-lactic acid, a substance that stimulates the gradual natural production of collagen in the skin. Sculptra works deep in the layers of the dermis to provide structural support for longer-lasting results. Great for treating severe nasolabial folds, smile lines, chin wrinkles, and marionette lines.

LIP AUGMENTATION

Injectable treatments are an effective way to enhance the appearance of the lips. They can be used to add precise amounts of volume to give the lips a fuller and more alluring appearance. They can also be used to combat the thinning of the lips and to treat lip lines.

Options for lip augmentation include:

• Restylane
• Radiesse
• Juvederm Ultra XC
• Juvederm Vollure XC
• Fat-transfer injections

TREATMENTS FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating in areas like under the arms and the face, as well as on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. Hyperhidrosis can lead to the development of social anxiety, can make it difficult to engage in normal activities, and can be a source of embarrassment.

Botox or Dysport injections have been shown to be able to help manage excessive sweating. When injected into areas like the underarms or forehead, these treatments prevent the sweat glands from producing sweat by blocking the signals to the nerves. The treatment process is relatively simple and provides results that last for around four months.

B-12 INJECTIONS

Also known as lipotropic fat-burner injections, treatments using B-12 shots offer a number of benefits. B-12 injections have been shown to increase energy levels and aid with weight loss when injected into the muscles. B-12 shots can help to:

• Increase energy levels
• Support the central nervous system
• Enhance metabolism
• Increase red blood cell production
• Improve vision
• Increase serotonin levels
• Lower risk of stroke/heart disease
