What Are Injectables?

Injectables are cosmetic treatments designed to smooth wrinkles, restore volume, and rejuvenate the skin. One of the most popular types is Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers — a naturally occurring sugar molecule that binds water to collagen. Remarkably, a single HA molecule can hold up to 1000x its weight in moisture.

As we age, collagen and elastin decline, leading to a loss of hyaluronic acid and visible signs of aging. HA fillers are commonly used for lip augmentation and facial rejuvenation, instantly smoothing lines and deep wrinkles while restoring a youthful, refreshed appearance.

Other substances used in dermal fillers include:

Calcium Hydroxylapatite – a mineral-like compound found in bones
Polyalkylimide – a transparent gel compatible with the body
Poly-L-lactic Acid – stimulates collagen production
Polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) Microspheres – a semi-permanent filler

Injectables provide safe, effective, and minimally invasive solutions for enhancing your natural beauty.

Dermal Fillers Vs Facial Fat Grafting

Facial fat grafting is a technique that involves taking fat from one area of the body and injecting it into another area to add volume. This method can also be used to address signs of aging, such as wrinkles or hollows. On the other hand, dermal fillers are gels that are injected directly beneath the skin in order to provide volume and a “plump” look to areas of the face.

Who Is an Ideal Injectables Candidate?

Injectable dermal fillers are perfect for those looking to reduce fine lines, deep wrinkles, and hollow areas on the face. They offer a subtle, non-surgical refresh without the downtime of surgery.

The ideal candidate seeks enhancement without drastic changes. During a consultation, your age, genetics, skin quality, and treatment goals are evaluated to ensure the best results.

How Do I Prepare for a Injectables Treatment?

To ensure the best results and minimize bruising, follow these guidelines before your injectable appointment:

1. Avoid blood-thinning substances (7–10 days prior):

Medications: aspirin, ibuprofen, Motrin, Aleve
Supplements: St. John’s Wort, Ginkgo Biloba, garlic, ginseng, Vitamin E

2. Skip certain skincare and hair removal:

Avoid topical treatments like tretinoin, retinol, glycolic acid, or other anti-aging products
Refrain from waxing, bleaching, tweezing, or other hair removal on the treatment area

3. Other important tips:

Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment
Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face

Following these steps helps maximize your results and reduce the risk of complications.

What Takes Place During a Injectables Treatment?

An injectables treatment is performed in a medical spa or healthcare provider’s office. The area is first cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort. Using a fine needle, small amounts of injectable product are carefully placed beneath the skin to enhance volume and smooth lines. Mild pressure or a slight pinch may be felt, but discomfort is minimal. The procedure typically takes 15–60 minutes, with little to no downtime and results visible shortly after treatment.
