Injectables

What are injectables?

Injectables are used to relax facial wrinkles and folds (such as “smile lines”), contour the body (such as reducing the appearance of a “double chin”) and improve the signs of facial fat loss by creating structure, framework and volume to the face and lips. There are different types of injectable procedures that improve various areas of concern.

ASDS members performed 4 million wrinkle-relaxing and soft-tissue filler injections in 2019. Wrinkle relaxers have increased 60% since 2012, while fillers increased 78%. Males and the under-30 age bracket are each becoming more proactive by choosing preventative skin care treatments.

Patient Safety Alert: Hyaluron Pens

A hyaluron pen is a device that was first developed for insulin delivery. A recent trend of disturbing social media videos show children using these pens to inject hyaluronic acid into lips, neck, and face, without a needle using just force. This can be highly dangerous leading to adverse events. When considering a cosmetic procedure such as dermal fillers, consult the TRUE skin and health experts — board certified dermatologists.
